Do they really need the headlights? Track seems pretty well lit

Thanks friendo

>Track seems pretty well lit
>seems

TV pictures are very misleading

>ferrari going to slicks
time for memes

>dumb question of the day.
yes. they wouldnt be able to see each other, or the walls, or the back of other cars, also, its pretty dark out. look at the on boards

If they had the lights on full brightness they'd only need them on the infield

What race? All I see is a Safety car!
>racing in burgerland, wew laddie

>tommy kendall just calling his friends while broadcasting

what is this

So why is there a caution? I got back like 5 minutes ago.

>American flag

I thought you were in Canada?

if you remember the 2010 Korean Grand Prix, the track was full darkness during the podium ceremony, but the cameras had their exposure all the way up making it look just overcast

this is more or less the same thing, you can tell by the headlights washing out the camera when they're in view

Gonna make an updated version of the kill list in about 8 hours or so, feel free to update the current one if you feel like it

>all those BBQs going on in the infield
Jealous. I'm sat here with a Tesco finest chicken jalfrezi.
I don't think my colon's gonna make it.

no idea wasn't paying attention desu probably "rain is scary mmkay"

James is, yes

Must be waiting for the track to dry.
>can't wait for the meme jet-engine track drier pick-up truck

this is now a Fernando thread

shoo shoo

A PC stopped on track.
He got going just as they waved the flag.

This might not be the same caution though I haven't been paying all that much attention lately.

no.

...

no

Teflonso is a lot slippier than the racetrack
>EFFIN get racing!

>jet truck

GREEEEN
GO MAN GO

>race restarts
>phone call keeps going

I actually got to drive a jet truck. Holy fuck are they fun.

...

the fuck does he have to do with this?

Nice history revisionism, pistoncuck. It was 70kg lighter, not 170kg. The Jags were 900kg and the Mercedes 905kg.

FUCK OFF WITH THE PHONE CALLS

it's henno behind a proxy, don't pay any attention to him

just came back from buying cheap lager and some chicken, what did i miss?

It's race commentary for casuals
>The Portuguese guys at Eurosport do exactly the same shit during the LeMans 24.They spend their time phoning up old drivers, talking about other editions of the 24, and reading Facebook posts.
>At least based Domingos Piedade, of Joest and Mercedes-AMG in the 80s, can tell a tale. But every year they're the same tales.

>we /rain/ now

nice

>carving up fords that easily

Ferd BTFO by Porsche masterrace.

he's trying to hide his identity by supporting another driver.

>high speed on banking in the rain

They were the WEC drivers. They aren't as good as the IMSA-based team.

Trav go to bed

>tfw roostered in the face

>rain
>that ferris wheel
>tfw not there

german car is best car i suppose

You're turning laps at night in the rain and suddenly a wild Lamborghini pulls up behind you flashing his lights. What do?

mire

Let him past then watch him spin

see

(SCARED)

>forza car still with optimization problems

hmm

Break check.

Let him over take me and then rear end him in the next turn.

>Italian engineering

It's the Carabinieri!!!
>moonshine run

Since when have Lamborghini's become soldi performers? Is this because they dropped Reiter Engineering like a fat chick and started in on Dallara instead? Are the Huracan GT3s pure Dallara projects now?

I miss the old days of Lamborghinis being complete laughing stocks but now everyone has to take them seriously.

>a wild Lamborghini pulls up behind you flashing his lights. What do?

Pick up the pace because I must be slacking if a Lambo driver is on my ass.

>the city of continental tires

LMPs in water are always a fun watch

I had so much fucking fun driving that in GT6 on Mount Panorama.

when they became german
see:

the cars are nice but the teams and drivers are still shits that fuck up everything

>Safely on the side of safe
What did he mean by this?

>suddenly have an urge to play racing games

Happens every time I watch a series I'm not interested in

>tfw too autistic to ask the official until prompted by my boss

Moshi moshi Tracy desu

>Are the Huracan GT3s pure Dallara projects now?
dallara + lambo squadra corsa joint thing

I fired up Forza just for this combo, even put my lambo in the wall when I was done.
