Interesting video with Josef Newgarden explaining the differences between the tyre physics in iRacing and real life.
I’ve heard so many drivers echo this over the years, the sims are much less forgiving than the real thing. Partly it’ll be down to a lack of feel, but I also think there is a hardcore faction of sim racers who demand that level of difficulty. They equate difficulty with realism in a way that’s ironically not that realistic. Anyway, interesting to hear his thoughts.
