F1 2012 Online car performance (equal)

[SquisheeMuffin]

I searched for similar threads on here but couldn't find any, so sorry for cluttering if that's the case.

I was just wondering if someone could give me a list or video showing how the teams are different or just lap times. In 2011 is was pretty bad and, for example the Red Bull was slow, so was wondering if it's the case in this game?

Cheers.

Cars are not equal in 2012 but its better.

Sauber 0
Williams +0.1
Toro Rosso +0.1
Force India +0.1
McLaren +0.2
Caterham +0.2
Marussia +0.2
Ferrari +0.2
Mercedes +0.25
Lotus +0.3
Red Bull +0.3
HRT +0.4

Ok so its not exact and everyone has a car that suits there own driving style which can be worth as much as 3 tenths or so and the Lotus, Red Bull and HRT might not be that bad but are slower for sure.

Thanks man, very much appreciated.

It's annoying that the Mclaren isn't nearer the top as I use to it to practice offline GP as it is the quickest there!

Edited in top speed advantages from testing that was carried out a while ago.

It's not about top speed advantage it's about how fast the Sauber reaches top speed. I've done 3 videos on Spa using Sauber, McLaren and Ferrari. The difference between them is about a second in reaching top speed.
