MK-MotorsportDTM90
#30
I switch too normally when it's a non BoPed multi car class and they get annoying with jumping starts, then blocking and blocking using their wider car that has better corner exits making it near impossible to overtake especially if they lag badly.
It's more challenging and more fun to drive an E30 DTM or the Merc so I simply try to avoid lagging Alfas by choosing sessions more carefully as I've had enough of their ramming and lagging on SRS. There are some very good Alfa drivers but very very few unfortunately, giving the car a bad reputation overall as a wrecker's car.

The worst with Alfa is it's AWD start where they gain 1 position for nothing and then often try and push you off or sandwich you in first corners. For 30min+ races I don't mind taking on the Alfas with all their advantages, it's fun but for <30min there often isn't enough time and opportunities to overtake when both drivers are about equal. For sprint races Alfa is super annoying to deal with and many will switch to it because of it. A 5% power BoP and 1 standing start position penalty for Alfa would go a long way to balance out the class, it would have the most powerful engine anyway as it's advantage power wise right now is around 9% over E30 and 8% over 190E, with 5% BoP bringing it down to 2-4% advantage only.

Any DTM series would then stop being so infested with Alfas and make for a more equal and challenging competition between the cars.

I've tried the Alfa on Spa and it was very steerable to my surprise, I've expected it to understeer but it can really be set not to even on tracks such as Spa where you have these slow and fast downhill corners and Eau Rouge.
Laguna... it's not even a question if Alfa is faster, the E30 struggles for traction all the time.
I've yet to drive a track beside probably pure oval where Alfa actually loses to an E30 or 190E.

That's a nice lap Oleksandr.
