I fully agree with you Stefano...
I really like the longer races over the 20min sprints. The 1hr events with GT2 and GT3 cars have been really nice in the last few seasons.
This car just doesn't do it for me though. I did the very first race at Riverside Long for the American time slot and that was it.
I have yet to do another race, mostly due to the dislike of this car. The racing is much closer though in a turd like this, I agree.
But when you take the time to pass correctly and get a run, you end up staying beside the guy way way too long.
This brings about more contact opportunities because you end up side by side for so long sometimes, and this is where the mistakes occur.
Pit strategy is totally out the window now I feel. I think you can go the whole race on Mediums and stop for 1L of fuel in the window and be fine.
In the race I did, I assumed I would need tires at mid race, so I only took 1/2 fuel I needed as well. I shoulda filled her up for a quick stop-n-go mid race though.
Really disappointed with the 1Hr races this season I guess. But, OH WELL, you can't make everyone happy and I understand this.
I've decided to shift my focus to other series instead. It just means I have to run 20min Sprints instead of the 1Hr races that I really prefer.
