Tried several searches but cant find the answer..
What pedals did they/do they/will they use for the gran turismo world series finals?
What pedals did they/do they/will they use for the gran turismo world series finals?
In order, whatever's included in the standard Thrustmaster T-GT & T-GT II (2018-2022)/Fanatec GT DD Pro (2023)/probably that again or the Extreme but I think it's the same pedal set anyway (2024).Tried several searches but cant find the answer..

Stewarding from my arm-chair is my favorite! Just like Famine said, I thought it was clear from Genesis' own posted video that it was his own fault. Pretty silly for him to post the video and remove any doubt that he deserved a penalty. See:
1. Unnecessary contact #1, initiated by Genesis. Not only he made a contact but he kept pushing into McLaren as well.

2. McLaren moves to left to break away from being pushed.View attachment 1355118
3. Immediate and sharp unnecessary contact#2, initiated by Genesis. Also here, not only he made a contact but he kept pushing into McLaren as well, for much longer this time. McLaren's actions from this point onward are all to save himself and to save Genesis.

Conclusion: Genesis was being almost dirty by squeezing McLaren there but still had chance to get away without being penalized until he pushed into McLaren not once but twice. A standard punishment is needed so that McLaren gets back his rightful position.
I have to agree with this… anyone who has some type of general track knowledge understands this..Not to mention, there’s no way you get a clean pass done there. It’s super narrow and very high speed. Danny knew EXACTLY what he was doing
I haven't done any running yet, apart from a handful of FP laps to get a feel for it. Will fuel be an issue at all, or just FM1 all the way?When did the Vette become so good on tires? I just did two mock races at DF for Wed, one with the Porsche and one with the Vette. Starting on the RS tires, he Porsche's RR tire was full red on lap 12, despite BB of -4 & -5. The Vette made it to lap 14 before going full red. Here I thought the Porsche was good on tires and the Vette not so much, but it appears to not be the case in my literally one test.
That being said, my overall time in the Porsche was like six seconds faster.
I've come up against Danny a few times in dailies and Manu, and of the (very few) times I've had the pace to run with him, he's been clean and respectful.Are they watching specific players? Does Danny have a history of dirty driving? Maybe this points removal is accumulative, based on previous races? On paper it looks like an isolated incident, but we don't see all of Danny's races from previous seasons. I'm not saying it's right, just asking a question...
They penalized all the Oceania drivers during the lockdown series for crossing the pitlane at Fuji because lag caused it to show them crossing pit lane line on the "official" data, but none of them crossed it on their own replays or screens. PD does not back down or communicate worth anything. Opaque decisions and random stewarding yet again. Glad I'm not pressured in those types of situations and can just race where there's no stewarding and the driving standards are beyond erratic.This raises a VERY interesting question. If the “master” view shows he left only half a car’s width so he gets penalized, but his view shows he left more than a car’s width that surely can’t be penalized?
It's FM1 all they way, I'm changing tyres at the end of lap 8 (just to be safe) finishing time for me was a 29:17 I've got a feeling I need to get faster in my Porsche.I haven't done any running yet, apart from a handful of FP laps to get a feel for it. Will fuel be an issue at all, or just FM1 all the way?
How much quicker are fresh softs over the mediums?Had a Deep Forest test in the Dodge, around 10 laps on softs is fine but after that mediums were quicker.
BB-3 and TC1. FM1 and no fuel needed at stop (although it was tight similar to Nords).
FM1 all the way on the two cars I used.I haven't done any running yet, apart from a handful of FP laps to get a feel for it. Will fuel be an issue at all, or just FM1 all the way?
In the race sim the difference was only 0.3 (comparing fastest laps) but I started on softs with a full tank and then went to mediums with low fuel.How much quicker are fresh softs over the mediums?
Considering a very dumb 2-stopper as I hate driving in traffic on this track.
There’s no way you’re making up enough time to cover an extra stop.How much quicker are fresh softs over the mediums?

I'm having the same thoughts. This not an easy track a LOT of drivers will get penalties and make mistakes. I'm thinking a 9S-9S-2M I could make good use of that. As an added bonus it will keep me out of traffic and maybe even prevent me from losing 1-3 positions at the start of the race (which tends to happen in the beginning of my race as I'm both too careful and bloody nervous)
The driving standards are so bad at my level that I can do this and still not be DFL. Not going to win anyway so may as well have a little fun and make the slidey Lexus a bit more manageable.
My guess is everyone will stop for tyres around lap 10. maybe the 9th or 11th but that's it. So I think a two stopper will not get you any benefit if your plan is to stop lap 9 for softs again as you will stay in pretty much the same traffic.I'm having the same thoughts.

Yeah. I expect you are right about that. I still like to do the strategy testing so that I find out the limits for the stints. For example, in this race, I know I'll have to ride out damage on mediums at least until lap 7 before switching to softs because the softs won't last more than 13 laps for me.Whilst I enjoy and admire the strategy testing, history tells me it will be worthless for this combo in GT1. The ONLY strat that will matter is the one where you’re lucky enough to not get permanent damage in any of the 3 massive divebomb zones.
I'm shifting at 80%, acceleration seems to fade after that but pulls really nicely in the next gear.I'm shifting gears in this car - at 100% of the rev bar, but no more.
I shift at 80% for the shift from 5th to 6th, but I didn't really notice much of a difference for the lower gears back when I first started driving the car. It's been a while since I've tinkered with that, so maybe I'll give it another try. Thanks for suggestion.I'm shifting at 80%, acceleration seems to fade after that but pulls really nicely in the next gear.
Me too. My heartrate just explodes at every racestart. Don't know why but it's annoying as hell 😂I recognise that being to carefull at the start and being nervous at the start. Still get that every race.
In the last four or five rounds I have entered in GTWS and Toyota Cup, I have been hit in every single race. And since we have heavy damage in GT1 league, it's race over after a few corners or one lap.
It's so frustrating, and for what I can tell it was not because I have hit someone and they hit me back, most of the cases were turn one dive bombs, or pure dirt. And to be the icing on the cake, the car that ruined my race don't get a penalty, and in some cases not even got damaged.
I don't care about the DR lost in the races, but what really bothers me is that the races were ruined because someone else screwed up
Some clips
The Black GT-One braked too early and I hit him
I got a little tap in the left rear enough to send me spinning
Turn 1, stupid move
Different angle
Race ruined in lap 1
