Hello guys. I have a career with Virgin and whatever I do, couldn't make a good race result. Here is my savegame. There are 2 different setups inside for Monaco. Can someone do a race and finish in top 3 with my savegame? Thanks.
Even if easy mode I always get 23rd or 24th position. That's my real problem actually.Uh, Monaco its a difficult one. With a Virgin in Legend Mode its very hard to do a good qualification. Try to play only that race in easy mode. That track its beautifull (if you quali 1º)!!
I think you should learn the track, and do it yourself. If you don't, you will have this problem in every championship season. It is a frustrating track if you dont know it well, but practice makes perfect.
Getting someone else to do it for you is like getting someone else to do your homework for you when you are at school. When you need to know what your supposed to be doing, you will get caught out eventually.
I encourage you to keep trying, don't give up, it will be more rewarding.
Also, realistically, a Virgin in a podium position?
You should have a read of this thread... http://www.racedepartment.com/f1-20...eason-lotus-max-difficulty-disappointing.html
Thanks my setup looks like yours and my lap times are 0.2-0.3 seconds faster now.try 9-8 wings short gears cruise(engine) and medium brake (48-52) gg and gl :]
Like you said mate this one is of the hardest tracks. Even if you learn every single undulation and all the bumps, crashing is so easy. I try to make better laps but I don't think can do better.I used to be a master on all previous versions of the virtual Monaco tracks! But this one will take a lot of practice!! Unlike other versions, this track will throw the car all over the place! You need to learn every single undulation and all the bumps to get it right. It's a huge learning curve. I tend be inpatient because I've always done so well in other versions of this track, but I'm trying to be patient. It will take a lot of hours!
Cheers
Haha its like buying a game for yourself and have ya mates come round and play it for ya?
Whats the point of getting a game if ya not gonna stick at it....Practice, How do ya think they do it in real life?
A pro driver dont get someone else to race for him and set best lap times and qualis and podiums......Whats the point in that?
Very funny ha? You are right at all but I was playing Monaco for a week, I couldn't improve myself and I'm looking for help because I'm tired of playing Monaco GP
I'll try to get better after every lap. Thanks.you have to remember the track and focus on being consistent and you will see every lap will keep getting better and better it takes time be patient
Today I'll try for the last time, if I can't improve myself, I'll do exactly what you said. Thanks for your interest.If you are really that tired of it and struggling too much, then skip the weekend! Treat it as a DNF, you still have a fair bit of the season left to pick up points
I watched Kubica with onboard camera and I think I can go much closer to the walls. Thanks.try to view a video of Monaco.. maybe you can figure out where you are going wrong.. and maybe make up sometime..
I tried but always crashed somewhere on track, I hit walls usually and at the end I gave up. Thanks for your suggestions.Honestly, Monaco is an awkward one. To be quick around this place consistantly without making mistakes takes A LOT of practice. Theres no simple fix, just run long practice sessions to learn the track inside and out.
Bit of guidance that i find helps.
I always run maximum front wing and 1 down from maximum on the rear. Downforce is everything around Monaco and makes the car less twitchy. If running no assist set the throttle mapping to Cruise like already stated. Heading into Massenet (at the top of the hill, turn 3 on teh map) try using no brakes and just down change 2 gears, you also wont need to brake for Casino square corner (the next corner, turn 4 on the map) As a general rule i always short shift and use low revs around the technical parts ie from the hairpin through to the corner before the tunnel. Skip a gear when you exit the hairpin ie.. from 1st to 3rd, its helps with stability through the next right handers.

I hate it too and today I gave it up like DNF. Started to Istanbul Park, got to pole position, won the race. Monaco is not proper for me.yeah this track is really tricky i personally hate it i was so sick of it at one stage that i just wrote my car off and retired lol but practice makes perfect
