Onboard Story: An incredible fight in Barcelona

that move probably had a 33.333 (repeating of course)percent chance of success =D

[@wajche_przeloz]

14:27 ah i see the jimmy broadbent approach of "podium or DNF" xd

[@xXN30NxGR33NXx]

Hahahaha i had the exact same thought

Really enjoying the onboard stories. Your commentary is perfect. Love the insight on strategy. Can't wait for more of them.

It was a really exciting race to watch live - was really hoping to see this on-board, thanks!

[@machonugget]

dude me and my lad was watching the race, couldn't Believe it, you was FLYING mate amazing Drive, thanks for posting this brilliant!

[@fafmotorsport]

Turn 6: taking the line through there that you’ve demo’d in GTSport and no other drivers take it... but you’re one of the quickest drivers out there. Ima stick with Dave’s line thank you very much 😜😂

Minimize distance covered 😁

[@Injamben]

That ending clip brought a smile to my face. Good race man

[@DavidPerel]

Hey Ben, thanks for sticking around until the end mate

[@waty0usay1]

I've had those moments in AC when you're so close to overtaking the car ahead, but run out of laps, really is a massive blue balls moment.

[@furion192]

This was such an exciting race to watch for a Perel fan!! So happy that your car and team made it to the end, let alone a podium on what is probably one of the hardest race's of the year. Great drive Dave I can't wait for the next one!!!! ps: Yes it was the #563 Lambo that won. But by now Im sure you know that haha

[@GeoffMartin]

I just watched this race on the DVR last night - great timing for the 'insight' video. What a crazy race it was! Thanks

[@alabama3415]

David amazing content as always! Loved the hero or zero comment, or as we say in the US checkers or wreckers! I was particularly amazed at how I was able to see all my break markers for GT sport and that you actually were breaking on them in real life!

[@dreamcrusher112]

Looks like an iracing race by the amount of chaos - great drive Dave!

[@kevinhowley1586]

Savage stuff David. This channel is brilliant. Nothing like it anywhere on KZbin. Well done on the podium!

[@leonardo3689]

I saw that move from another angle, but on board is just jaw dropping. Congrats!

[@neptuned4746]

I really liked this video good job. I noticed that my right foot and left foot were moving, and begin thinking "huh, do I brake and throttle the same places as him?" And yeah..kinda. I'd say we're about a 98.8% match on this, now of course theirs tons of variables but hey the Sims are damn close atleast. And btw don't doubt your aggression so much because the way you're driving is just fine. When I was student at Panoz Richard reminded me how much of a physiological game racing is and how patience really does pay off. He taught me one very important lesson "Being behind another car can be just as much of an advantage as being in front of another car/driver" and every single race I've been in since that saying has only become more and more true. You're gonna do fine man, just listen to your gut. Respect and best of luck to you.

[@shaunstrydom8976]

FANTASTIC WORK!!!!!! That Overtake on the Porsche was tight but excellent done! As always thank you for you Videos. Really great. Keep well buddy!

[@TonyTurbo78]

Just started watching you a few months back from the sim racing scene, I love your commentary and hearing of your thought process during the real races. This is really insightful material and really on point.

[@michelherszak3044]

Awesome to see this race from a couple different perspectives. I was always looking for the dribble three car and only saw it maybe three times and was pumped when you appeared and overtook the Porsche in corner 5. Good job!

[@kylededrick3874]

Amazing aggression! Thank you so much for the content!

[@DavidPerel]

[@GeoffMartin]

Thanks Dave! I watched this race on TV and was amazed at the number of incidents! I'm not sure I've ever seen (other than in simracing ;-) ) a race with as many incidents throughout as this one. It was great to then get to hear your views from inside the car and the different modes of strategy you approached with (as well as all the details of what moves work where and why etc) - so thanks for sharing with us and giving us a great, detailed rounder view of an amazing race! (I think 46 cars is maybe too many for Barca? :-) )

[@DavidPerel]

This race was particularly rough when it came to incidents. The track cannot cope with so many cars, which is why the final round is changing locations next year. Thanks for watching!

What a great video mate. When I saw the time and the lenght of this video, I was feeling that I might get bored and therefore close the video, BUT this was actually insane. It kept me up every single second and it was nice that you talked us through the whole video, not letting us "sleep". Awesome video David, keep geinding!

[@joshdoldersum9132]

I watched this race over the weekend! Was so so stoked watching climb up the order! Been waiting for this video!

[@joshdoldersum9132]

Nice run! Regarding the move around the outside of turn 1, Caldarelli made the move stick in the 563 around the #4 I think, but with a ton of door to door contact. When the sister car the 519 tried it a little later on it looked almost identical except the 519 wound up facing backwards.

[@DavidPerel]

Yea that T1 move was high risk and also I couldn't get as close as I wanted to be able to pull it off. I have done the move before, in GT Open last year, but I was much closer in the braking zone.

[@joshdoldersum9132]

@@DavidPerel how long do we have to wait until your next race, and will you focus more on GT Sport during the offseason?

[@whiterottenrabbit]

Loving your Onboard Story videos, keep up the good work!

Great driving David! Well done and congratulations! Btw doesn't matter if it's simracing or real race - really like when you talk about strategies and those small details (like about moves on right hand drive cars) - super interesting, world class. Greetings

Congratulations David, what a focused race you did.

[@sprintermaximus]

It's badass David. I actually went out for this race last year and met you on the grid walk. Cool to see your videos as well. I think this race was so chaotic it must have been difficult to maintain position with all the restart and safety cars. Either way, congratulations on the podium.

[@nakersum]

Amazing race David! you got the guts when was needed. Keep up that great driving!

I love these onboard stories. Cool to learn that Felipe Fraga is fast in Blancpain and Igor Fraga is fast in GT. Wonder if they're related lol. Also, it's also really crazy to see how much those dust clouds at 15:35 hinder your vision. Finally, that move at 16:10 was awesome.

That overtake on the GTX porsche was epic. I didn´t see any space there. First move was sick and the undercut was even better. I got hyped after that and im only watching it :D it must be such a adrenalin rush after something like that.... Good job

[@samgogo9067]

I watched that move you made on the Porsche on TV broadcast and was " Oh MAN Perel don't wreck!". Let me tell ya, my heart was beating and my butt cheeks were clinched. I've done that move on Assetto Corsa with your car and I think I have maybe a 50% success rate with AI. Lol. Kudos to both you and the Porsche for not wrecking each other. Congrats on the 3rd, My NFL team sucked but you gave me a reason to cheer that weekend! Can't wait for next season!

man gt sport does a good job modeling these tracks, or laser scanning whatever it is, it is cool to see the accuracy of the corners and all the same lines you'd take in game.

[@whysoslow1999]

laser scanning truly is amazing. even if the physics arent completely accurate in even iracing, acc, or whatever you fancy, atleast the tracks are millimeter accurate (in the games that dont half ass things and take the laser scanning route) and the cars themselves too but that doesnt really impact things
