Something not right about the cockpit view for the Ferrari compared to the Mercedes.. I can barely see the circuit while running on Ferrari..

Raise your seat in the cockpit.

In other words, use the "onboard settings" app to adjust the camera view in the cockpit.

Yes theres an AC icon that says "On board" that will allow you to adjust the seat position as well as the field of view. After you set it the way you want click save and it should save the position for that car.

I'll be honest. I hate this mod. Feels like driving in rain conditions. Extremly understeery. And when something is completly different then what every one has done with f1 cars it makes me think something is very wrong with this mod. It is far from anyone would expect from f1 car and far from what for example kunos made with their f1 car. I know they are different, but it is like heaven and hell. Not anjoying this mod at all.

Anyone heard if this is one of the mods that's been targeted by the FIA with the cease and desist letters they're sending out?

It isn't, we have only had a few Facebook posts removed, but it is good to be cautious. With the changes, it truely becomes a Formula Corsa Modding team mod, so it will be something this and other forums can promote without fear of litigation, as wasn't the case under its prior form.

They just have to rename it to something like Formula V6T ... someone in codemaster maybe started crying to Bernie

I understand your frustration, the problem is that ERS hasn't been implemented yet, so the devs had the choice between ,not doing it all and the cars,then, will be really slow or including the additional 160 HP in the power curve and have ERS at 100% all the time ! they went with the second one,that's why you get huge torque at low rpm and make the car really hard to control ! it requires sometime to get your brain used to it

Philipp Koch · Aug 22, 2014

so maybe progress is stalled?

I should have stopped reading when you said it feels extremely understeery... It's your opinion, but you either don't know what understeer is or you we are playing completely different mods. These cars are anything BUT understeery. At high speed the change of direction is excellent and it holds on mid corner and on exit, at low speeds they feel good when you get the back to rotate.

You shouldn't compare it to other mods, for example Lotterer was saying he's braking at Spa 40 meters (!!!) earlier then his LMP1. F1 cars lost a huge amount of downforce and the way they are modeled in this AC mod is to always be on full power, no fuel management, energy harvesting, etc.
