This information will assist gamers who bought a F1 game and haven’t any earlier expertise of the game or have a single clue how F1 works as there isn’t any correct tutorial on this game.
Introduction
This information is for individuals who purchased this game pondering it could be a throttle, brake and steering racing game however discover so many controls on the display with none tutorial explaining the makes use of of every merchandise. This is for informal avid gamers who straight wish to leap right into a customized game. This information doesn’t inform about tips and suggestions.
Types of tyres and compounds
At every Grand Prix each group is given entry to 2 specs (or compounds) of dry-weather tyre. Unless situations are moist, drivers should use each specs in the course of the race. “S” stands for mushy tyres, “M” for medium tyres, “H” for onerous, “I” for intermediate and “W” for moist tyres. C1 means compunds 1 the place C1 is the toughest and C5 is the softest.
Softs – These tyres have the utmost quantity of oil in them and supply glorious grip. Hence they’re the quickest set of tyres. They deteriorate actually rapidly and do not final lengthy. (Red)
Mediums – Theoretically that is probably the most completely balanced of all of the tires, with a super compromise between efficiency and sturdiness. As a outcome, it is rather versatile, however usually comes into its personal on circuits that have a tendency in the direction of excessive speeds and vitality loadings. This is a low working vary compound. (Yellow)
Hards – These tyres present very much less grip however final actually lengthy. Typically used for 1 cease methods. (White)
Intermediates – A variant between onerous and full moist tyres. To be used when the monitor is barely moist. Faster than full wets. (Green)
Full Wets – These tyres have full treads and are solely for use when it’s raining or the monitor is actually moist. Will deteriorate actually quick if utilized in dry situations. (Blue)
Over the race weekend, every driver has entry to 13 units of dry-weather tyres (seven of the more durable ‘prime’ specification and 6 of the softer ‘option’ specification), 4 units of intermediate tyres and three units of moist tyres.
The different info concerning tyre change aren’t vital for the game since they’re routinely modified each session.
(*22*) show
- Fuel combine :
Lean can solely be utilized in pratice classes and in your outlaps in qualifying or when you invalidated your qualifying lap by slicing an excessive amount of.
In the race, you’ll be able to solely choose lean if there’s a Safety Car or a Virtual Safety Car. Otherwise you all the time have to make use of commonplace. no selection.
What this implies?
In pratice/qualifying you’ll be able to have a look at how a lot gasoline you burn on commonplace gasoline after which guess how a lot you want for the race.
Underfueling is simply a viable technique when you can closely protected gasoline (from strategies like carry and coast) or when you improve your gasoline effectivity (profession mode solely) otherwise you gamble on security automobiles (which you shouldnt). - Brake bias :
Don’t actually need to make use of this one the vast majority of the time, in case you are battling entrance or rear locking of the wheels underneath braking modify it accordingly. You’ll usually wish to be operating round 59%. If you discover your entrance wheels locking scale back this to round 56-57%. If your rear wheels are locking improve it to 62% or so. You can simply discover entrance wheel locking by seeing smoke coming from entrance wheels throughout braking. - Differential :
This is one thing you will wish to hold round 70%-75% for most tracks. The decrease is it the higher traction you will have, however that’s the price of outright grip. The larger it’s the higher grip you will have however it’s a lot simpler to interrupt traction. Generally within the moist or on avenue circuits you will need the diff proper down at 50%-60% - ERS ( vitality restoration system) :
This system is what turns the petrol Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) right into a hybrid, because it provides round 160 bhp to the automobile’s output. The vitality from the turbocharger – Motor generator unit – Heat (MGU-H) and vitality from the brakes Motor generator unit – Kinetic (MGU-Okay) and saved in batteries and will be deployed at any time when wanted. The finest strategy to perceive what these modes imply is to think about them because the gasoline modes, however the important thing distinction is that as an alternative of it being always drained, it’s recharged in the course of the braking zones. In this season we solely have one mode :
Mode 1 – Overtake
The quantity subsequent to voltage image stands for the ERS mode being deployed. “H” stands for the quantity of vitality harvested. “D” stands for the quantity of vitality deployed and it’s restricted to sure degree for a lap. When D is absolutely used you can not use anymore ERS. The % exhibits you ways a lot ERS is left for use.
Drag Redcution System
DRS stands for Drag Reduction System. When a automobile is lower than 1 second behind a automobile a flap opens up within the rear wing. The rear wing helps create downforce in corners however creates drag or slows the automobile down on straights. By opening the slot, the automobile is extra aerodynamic and sooner.
DRS can solely be opened on sure factors – theses are the DRS activation zones – they’re all the time on straights. It is marked as DRS as within the image above and the activation will be accomplished on touching the road. The distance for the activation zone is displayed in your MFD in orange colored numbers close to pace. You should manually press the required button. It switches off routinely when the zone is over. It often will get activated within the second lap or so and never obtainable throughout security automobile.
As i mentioned earlier than for a driver to have entry to DRS he must be lower than 1 second behind the automobile in entrance. the detection zone is the place this hole is measured i.e. in case you are lower than one second behind the automobile in entrance on the detection zone then you’ll have DRS within the subsequent Activation zone. You will get a beep sound to let you recognize that DRS obtainable
F1 automobiles at the moment are so finely tuned to manage air move over the automobile when they’re shut behind one other automobile they get what is known as “dirty air” that is the place the air is so turbulent it isn’t flowing over the automobile in a super approach. this makes overtaking onerous as when you’re near overtake a automobile your automobile is actually onerous to drive. DRS is meant to negate the lack of soiled air.
Flags
- Yellow flag means that there’s a particles on the monitor or a gradual automobile and that try to be cautious throughout that part until the inexperienced flag is waved. No overtaking is allowed within the yellow flag part as marked in crimson circle in above image.
- Green flag means you that sector is evident and you’ll proceed racing.
- Blue flag means the backmarkers (people who find themselves lagging an entire lap behind race leaders) ought to let a quick automobile overtake, if not they’re given a penality.
- Red flag, I’ve by no means crimson flag being waved on this game however it means the the race is stopped and all automobiles should return to pit.
- Black flag is waved together with the driving force quantity that means that you’ve accomplished some forza horizon degree crap on the monitor and you might be eradicated from the game.
- Chequered Flag is often used throughout all of motorsport to suggest the top of a session
I might’nt fear about penalities if I used to be a newbie since these are routinely deployed within the game and also you needn’t do something. You will routinely perceive them when you play just a few video games.
Happy racing!
