I think Kunos should add a formula car between the Abarth and the T125, I find myself enjoying very much the Formula 2 in rfactor 2, it's fast enough but not so difficult to drive. iRacing also needs a car between the Formula Mazda and the F1/Indycar.

 

[Fernando Deutsch]

I agree. Probably a GP2 spec car. Also, I would like to see a good openwheel training car, something below the F3, like the Skip Barber from rFactor, I really enjoyed driving that car.

 

[Bryan O'Connor]

Developer guy on the official Forums just posted about the Lotus saying he thinks it's closer to a GP2 car than a modern (2013 or 2014) F1 car.

With this higher level of tecnology applied to build a car I feel to say that the exos and a F1 are difficult cars to be compared.
The exos is less aerodinamically efficient, it has more drag, less power, much more simple mechanics, more downforce from the diffuser, less from the wings, more mechanical grip and MUCH less money and human resources spent in developement... different cars.
I think laptimes will be comparable to a gp2.

Also found this!

 

[Galin Dimov]

And throw some Formula Abarths in the feeder series? Like it

I like the sound of it

 

[Ignazio Pinella]

I will really love to see finally real road (or call it whatever you like it, rubber on track) and flat spot implemented... Let's see if this is the right update to have those great feature!

 

[ENDR]

So it's Friday already - is the update out yet?

 

[ZethGAF]

Anyone know what earliest time is that you can usually download the update? Preferably EST -US. I know they're usually auto-downloaded by 1-2pm for me, but I'm super hyped for this one.

Usually I see it between 8 or 9am out here on the west coast. So between 11 and noon for you.

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

Pretty much every update has been between 11 and noon CST

This was posted on Marco's Facebook page in relation to the T125: Today you will get two cars in one. The S1 version will give you what you didn't expect.

oo could it be that the S1 version has a proper F1 engine? Please let that be true

Or a Jean Alesi that help you with the seatbelt!

 

[Chris]

Doesn't the T125 already have a proper Formula One engine?

Normally aspirated 3.8L, V8?

Mind you, it is made by Cosworth and their engines in their final years in the sport weren't great. Down on power and reliability.

 

[Simon Roberts]

18,000RPM and 1000BHP I reckon lol!

 

[CKraegel]

I also thought about something like that. So that the S1 maybe is some kind of F1 spec. But i dont know if i should be happy about something like that or not as it would be completely fictional..
