If I load same car and track combo in testing THEN go to Championship race it will load. But sometimes I'm view is below the ground and can't do anything as far as clicking buttons. Have to close program and open again.
   

 

Version: V 1.2.5.1.1839
Track & Layout Used: Montreal
Car Used: F V10 G1
Applicable Settings: race weekend
Report: AI which wants to pit hits other (players) cars with full speed at pit entry

 

...and after the big hit....
I love this damned bug!
Where are the rear wheels?

 

AI in formula cars still go over grass full blast as if it was the street and never ever spin. Devs finally need to decrease their grip level.

 

Apologies if reported already, (been absent and so many [posts to catch up on)
Track & Layout Used: Brasilia Outer
Car Used: GT Classics~ Porsche
Applicable Settings :Real weather. Online 10 AI @ 105/100 with 10 player slots 12 laps
Report: As Q session. Host indicator goes from 1 {myself) to 2 then 3 as the session draws to a close ( have seen and reported 2 before, but never seen 3 hosts until today) Timer seconds may be error also
Steps to reproduce: As above

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Sigma P1
Applicable Settings: Any
Report: The engine does not last more than 20min, no matter what I do.
Steps to reproduce: Drive the car in any session

 

The car has an aggressive boost. Using it around 60% should make the engine survive a few hours. Are you using more than 60% Boost?

 

Track & Layout Used: Imola 2001
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: Race against AI
Report: When an AI wants to pit, it just rams drivers who break for last chicane. Similar to Montreal.

 

Ok, setting the boost to something like 40% it might get the distance that I want . But it became really slow compared to the other car in the same class. Not sure this is alright.

EDITED: The boost set to 40% was still too much for ~2,5h. And it is a strange situation because apparently the AI is not submitted to the same conditions. So I was a lot slower than the Sigmas driven by the AI, and consuming much less fuel.

Having to adjust the turbo to make the distance is very cool, but ATM the effect seems exaggerated, and the AI not matching the player condition makes it much less interesting.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Porsche GT3 R (or any naturally-aspirated car)
Report: Power losses of naturally-aspirated cars at altitude seem too high
Steps to reproduce: Measure the hp at sea level and at high altitude

It is known that turbos have an advantage at high altitudes because they are less susceptible to low air density effects. But the effect in AMS2 seems exaggerated. The usual formula quoted for the power loss is 3% for every 1000 ft of altitude. If we believe this formula, the 911 R has 512 peak hp at Daytona (sea level) so it should have 472 hp at Spielberg (2600 ft). But in-game, it peaks at only 460 hp at Spielberg. That is a big difference and makes the Porsche and AMG uncompetitive at many tracks in the game.

Would it be possible to add an option in multiplayer to turn off the altitude effect to make racing closer?

 

Track & Layout Used: Jacarepaguá Oval
Car Used: All cars, though open wheel may not be as effective
Applicable Settings: any
Report: You can wallride this lay out. No penalty for going nearly 5s a lap faster because you can bomb around without lifting.
Steps to reproduce: Drive around track without lifting, gently rubbing the wall in the tighter corners. Wet tires can make this effect even stronger.

Is it possible to make wall strikes invalidate lap times?

 

Don't know if this is a bug, but In my opinion, the Formula Trainer cars swing to the outside of fast corners way too much and jump like rabbits in such sections. Is it supposed to be that these cars behave like a pendulum in a grandfather clock?

 

Track & Layout Used: Hockenheinring
Car Used: Porsche 911 GT1-98
Applicable Settings: any
Report: When spectating an online match, the gears indicator isn't replicated in cockpit view, it stays on Neutral forever.
Another annoying thing is that when streaming races, it would be a good idea to be able to hide the chatbox.
