I think BoP is terrible, but agree on the transparency.
The Porsche 6 had indeed an amazing race, but it was just one car (drivers making the difference?). The other Porsches performed poorly, which we already knew was going to happen before the race.
You are right about the Ferrari BoP numbers, but you left out that these numbers are better than both the 2023 and 2024 races, when they also dominated. So if they're dominating, why are they getting green numbers? What does BoP do?
And yet they keep getting top speeds 10+ kph above the others. Again, what does BoP do?
Why Peugeot, the weakest car, was hit the hardest in BoP?
If there was no BoP, I would be here praising Ferrari's engineering, driving and race execution. But insted they screwed the race with multiple penalties (as usual, while others executed perfectly) and somehow just had to cruise for 24 hours...
But hey, we should be talking about 2026. What are expecting from Hyundai?

Probably the same as the last three years: "Please make good BoP."
Maybe one day they'll get to it.

I don't think there's any "improving Monaco". Pushing the chicane forward would probably help, but there's not enough space to make a slow chicane near Tabac. A fast one wouldn't help either.
But you know what? We already have 20+ races in the calendar. We have all sorts of tracks and many with easy overtakes.
I'm actually ok with having one track (or two, if you consider Singapore) where Saturday is the ultimate challenge. That qualify was great.

Good stuff, happy to see another update
Keep it up!

Yeah, cars just keep getting bigger and bigger. I think the LFSRM LS GTI is in line with the XF two generations later.
Check out the size difference of a Mk3 Escort and a Mk2 Focus (around 20 years apart):

Yup, this looks great.
+1 for keeping the LFS feel/idea and not just sketfab'ing the heck out of everything.
(I don't mean to offend most mods. Importing a 3D model and building the mod is really a lot of work)

Nice!
Been following this one closely, really appreciate the amount of work you're putting into it.

Amazing stuff.
I'm really curious about that tyre physics.

I'm not sure I ever raced Bottas, but I surely raced Nicky and used to see FiredUp a lot in Gentlefoot and other events like NDR TBO Challenge and such.
Fun times, even though I only saw those drivers when they were lapping me.
Scary child-like things, I think.
I've been following this for some time too, was so excited for the demo. And then I played a bit and didn't really enjoy it. I don't know why.
Graphics and atmosphere are top notch.
Yeah, I agree. I think the coasting to charge batteries is really weird too and don't belong in racing.
I wish FIA would just say "your non-hybrid engine must cost 1 million bucks tops and you'll have 150 litres of gasoline to spend in the race. Go design!"
But I have no idea if that would work. I really miss different engine configurations for different teams.

Here's hoping!
I wish they would do something about the huge dependence on wings/downforce. Fixing that should help a lot to get better races.
Or we could just convince all of them to race motorcycles instead...
Oh, just saw that. Grats Rudy!
Seems kind of weird that most of us had shared the virtual track with him.
Definitely feels like I chose the wrong career.
Also, wasn't Bottas around here too for some time?
Edit: some nice guys showing up in this thread.
Had good races with some of you.

Me too. I'm crap.
I'm so crap!
Hey there, Z
Oh hi!
Still lurking these forums, but haven't played for ages.
I have Assetto, but haven't touched it in a few months too (mainly playing The Witcher 3 and World of Warships lately). Don't have any consoles as well, and to be honest not really into it.
Oh, I miss those FOX races.
Nice to hear from you guys!

Hahah, nice one! I can't believe he said he was "surprised Lewis turned". I mean...
So no one posts here anymore? 
Let's try to get some pics again...
