Anyone could explain me how the fuel wear works in GT5.....I used a long transmission setup and I made the change gears very far of the red light limite and anyway my fuel wear was worst than yours, I don't understand the logic!
About the race, the first stint was very close between Rich and Spurgy.....then, in my second pit stop, I selected 60ltrs but the game refueled full tank (100ltrs) and that was "good bye to the leadership"!
To save fuel you need to not use full throttle so much, as far as I know, the revs make no difference. So the people who saved fuel like me, were half throttling in your slipstream.
Maybe that....I was cutting the air, so I guess probably my fuel wear was worst....but this happened in other races too where I was not first...anyway, I hope this and other things be more realistic in GT6.
I was watching Silverstone race 1 I think, from other on board view cam, not yours, and I could watch you made a good race.....I raced in the same conditions, not wet, not dry, in the middle, with slick tires and I think is the best and fun way to race with formulas. Seems to be a nice car the Formula Jedi but, it looks like a little unsafe the head of the driver, if I race there, I would like to ask for more protection there. (I hope you can understand my poor English).
Drafting someone is the only consistent method of saving gas. Otherwise, there's no point building a setup based on fuel mileage. Just look at Spurgy's tank compared to mine near the end of stint two. I went with a full tank and all but caught up, but lost the extra I put in by doing so.Anyone could explain me how the fuel wear works in GT5.....I used a long transmission setup and I made the change gears very far of the red light limite and anyway my fuel wear was worst than yours, I don't understand the logic!

What cars do you race, got any videos? And in the same race as the one you watched there was a 100mph crash, both drivers were completely fine, so they're quite safe. I can see what you're saying about the head protection, but I don't feel too exposed in the cars and usually major incidents are quite rare.
