Ferrari GR3 losing power

[alifra]

Hi everyone.
During the last race of the FIA manufacturing championship, (06-30-18 at Interlagos Brazil), my Ferrari GR3 was consistently losing power.
It almost looks like if I had the traction control at 5, when in reality was set to 0, really annoying... I lost many positions.
I tried to play with the traction control to see if maybe was stock or something, but nothing.
My internet connection was full...
I immediately thought that my pedal was having technical issues, but after the race, I did test my pedals on different cars on different tracks, but the problem was never replicated. I also tried on Project Cars and Assetto Corsa, and no problem.
Anyone having the same problem?
Thanks

I signed for Ferrari, I won the first at suzuka, the tyre wear is crap, yesterday at Interlagos I qualified P8 due to the tyre wearing so fast and at the final laps of the race the car was undriveable that is my only complain about the car.

(Oh, it also understeers a lot + bad tyre wear = disaster.)

I'm not sure what you mean by losing power... it's a bit underpowered and the tire wear is terrible, but it doesn't lose power, though the application of that power can be more difficult once the tires start to get wear. You should definitely at least put TC 1 on that car though.

I'd like to know when we're getting the 488. It's laughable that we're in the official FIA season now and the only Ferrari available hasn't really been professionally raced in a couple years.

Was the throttle cutting out? There was a bug during the beta where the HUD would register throttle input but the engine would cut out intermittently at random intervals, was it something like that?

It’d help if you could show us a capture or replay of the problem.

I had an issue with the 919 where the abs was on permantly in a race...so i was getting blown away. Had to restart the ps and it went away. Could this be your power problem?

Some months ago I thought my pedals had an issue. It turned out the DS4 L2 button was slightly pressed when I put it down, causing the brake to be lightly activated.

I had a bugged gr 3 Lancer after the last patch. After a few laps it would show full throttle but the engine would lose power and my rpms would start to drop. Luckily I was offline practicing when it happened. I sold it and bought another one and it seems all good now.

YES. That is exactly the problem, the throttle cutting out. Unfortunately I didn't save a replay...

Maybe... but was during the last FIA Manufacturing race... so I was not able to restart the ps4.

That's interesting, I don't remember if I had a DS4 on, but is possible. Thanks

thanks, but unfortunately it's a contract car, I cannot sell it.

That is what is happening to me. I am racing my Ford Raptor on the experimental track to try to reach top speed. I have altered my gearing to push the show that I am not losing acceleration at higher speeds. All of a sudden, my car starts losing speed and power like it is running out of gas, but fuel consumption is turned off as I am trying to see how fast I can get the vehicle for poops and giggles. I have no idea what is causing the problem as my controller is also fully charged. It shows my throttle at full power on the HUD but, obviously there is something wrong as I drop from over 230 miles per hour reached by my own engine and no drafting but end up dropping down to 150.

If you are using peddles I had this issue with my G29 and had to open it up and clean it out which cured the issue, some amount of fluff and dust gets in there. Could well be an issue with the controller in the same way, try another controller.

I'm using a controllee. Everything is clean. It is now happening at every track with my vehicle. It is just completely losing power and I cannot achieve anything over 166 miles an hour. There are no limiter set. I am not out of fuel. It has nothing to do with tires because Tire where is turned off. It is literally like my vehicle hit 110 miles on the odometer and now I have no power. I have not adjusted any of my gearing that I was using to reach those original top speeds that could be the culprit. It is very, very strange.

I do appreciate the help that has been offered so far. I wish it was able to fix the issue. :-(
