All Sarthe huh... I thought the hundredish meters per second might prove too much for my reflexes. So it did. But I came up with a plan. I noticed several corner exits, where the wheel fell out of alignment. Paused the game and corrected it (turning both ways). That happened five times. One lap is enough.

No tune/93.

I ran Le Mans on several occasions as a co-driver for Derek Bell who is a five time winner of Le Mans🏁. I did a lot of the night driving. There was another driver but I do not recall his name. In the picture Derek Bell, @skeagracing and Vik Elford.

The five most important corners are from 1 to 5.
1. Corners leading to the longest straight. If there are several corners before the longest straightaway the corners before the last corner are throwaway corners and are not important only the last one before the straightaway is important.
2. The fastest corners on the track.

3. Any corner after the end of the longest straightaway or straightaways if there are more than one.
4. Connected corners are very important because if you mess up any of them you will not be set up for the next one’s and your rhythm will be interrupted.
5. Slow corners such as 180* hairpin.



Also when testing go slow to go fast so you can get your rhythm down for the track that you are testing at.
