Does Automobilista 2 take drafting into account.

While racing yesterday I was in the drafting sweet spot while racing against the AI, but I didn't notice any effect. Are drafting or drag physics implemented in AMS2?

Yes, but the effectiveness of drafting will vary from class to class, like real life.

What car were you racing? Cars with little or no aero will gain less effect from drafting.

Depends by what you mean by aero but if you mean downforce its not true. Drafting was very important in racing in the 60s before wings were introduced. Drafting is also very important in bicycle racing where again there is no downforce. (And yes I am missing the Tour de France )

Stock Car 2020 Chevy and Toyota. And Sprints (love running these things )

There have been mentions of tweaking the magnitude of drafting in previous release notes. From memory they lowered the effect.
