at least the dry line is easy to seeJust be glad you haven't gone for 100% realism for weather right now - this is what Turn 3 looked like yesterday...
We sit a similar distance from the screen, the calcs say the fov should be 34, I run 36 (I think for this car, track) yours looks huge!Race start 58:25

When I started sim racing back in 2007 with Richard Burns Rally this was the default value in that game and I have used that value in all racing games from then on, recently tried FOV calculators and just can't get used to smaller numbers.Ta, blimey, that's huge!
Obviously works for you though
I had a PB in qualy and was 6th on the grid, really happy with that given the quality racing.
Good start made up a position to jump M. Rudolf in the Ferrari and was chasing @Trebucht down in the Audi. Sadly he had a moment, shot off sideways out of my view, then collected me allowing the Ferrari to get past.
Was managing to get back on terms but traffic didn't help and as soon as I got in a position to pressure, I had to drop back a fair bit.
Then @LeSunTzu, who was faster in the same car (Lexus), caught me and I had to really focus on not making a mistake and defending. Managed to keep him at bay on the two occasions he was attacking and it's probably the best defending I've had to do for a while. Thankfully, he gave me a get out each time by the smallest of mistakes, but it made me work hard. I also lost sight of the car up front so settled for a happy 5th.
As always @Ricoow , thanks for hosting mate.
For the majority of EA we were saying "oh cant wait for full formation lap" and now that we have it we dont use it?
****ing joke! half the grid crashed before the last turn! Because pro sim racers are stalling on the formation lap! If you havent practiced it dont use manual controls! Once again race ruined before it even gets the green flag! Really disappointing club races!
I had some cracking battles out there. Who says you can't overtake around Brands Hatch?!
Had some good fights with @T0mpang on the first lap, @Nasos Charalampou in the middle of the race, and a really close one with N. Redman (Can't find your user account, sorry).
Yeah, it was a shame it ended like it did. I tapped you through turn 1 because I had so much speed, so I was trying to not pass you into turn 2 because that would have been unfair. However, when I came back around T2, I realised @Geof was there, so I didn't want to let him through, but I had a run on you. I decided to brake early anyway to avoid hitting you and just to get the line on the Audi, but contact was made because of that horrible kink before the turn.We had a great battle with @Jimlaad43 but lag decided to end our battle early.
The leader each time should keep a low speed to let everyone catch up.
