I now understand why they ran the grooved tyres back then. I thought that they were just trying to cover up something with the argument that "it'd be too quick to run these cars of slicks". Well. It is TOO bloody quick.

[@Nekrews51]

I know it's beyond ridiculous

[@_chaitanyajoshi]

Well the hybrid cars are even faster

[@Bearcat299]

@@_chaitanyajoshi well only the 2020 version. They would be very similar tbh. An unprepared Ralf Schumacher who hasn't raced for 15 years in his 2003 Williams detuned from 950 to 850hp was comparable to current one (3rd in qualifying at Austria) so I believe that the f2004 with a good and prepared driver would be in the time of the 2020 one.

F2004 with current super soft tyres is the fastest F1 car ever build! The qualify back in 2002 -3-4 was with fuel until the first pit and the tyres was grooved and a lot more, more harder than now !

[@Thraser999]

I don't know which tyres they modded on this car, if those are the narrower ones that were used from like 2009-2016, or the wider ones from 2017 onwards, that would be an interesting thing to compare as well...

[@XRISTOS3CFXX]

I agree! But they are softer and slicks! Alonso said before 3-4 years that if the current soft slick tyres modded in a 2004-5 F1 car , will be 4-5 seconds faster , it depends the track !

[@faisalnoor7081]

At the straight I felt like it could use a 9th gear.

[@skre1170]

What game is this??

[@Super-Godzilla99]

@@faisalnoor7081 the teams back then wanted 8 gear but the fia restricted it, the same with why they must use groved tyres, too slow them down, f1 cars at the time where going too fast so that the drivers safty couldn`t be ensured anymore, thats why they changed it. todays f1 cars are not build too perform at maximum performance, safty comes first thats why the regulations in modern f1 is so much restricted. drs and modern slick make them faster not the performance of the car itself, they are downgraded versions of what is possible, thats why 2000 - 2006 f1 cars with slicks could be much much faster then modern f1 cars. alonso proved that in his 2005 championship car, on an dirty track, with no specilised setup and no driving on the limit in 2020. he was just cruising around and having fun nothing more, and still he was only 2 seconds slower than the pole time of that year. if you seen the training qualifiing and races in the early 2000`s F1 you can imagine that he easily could drive 4 seconds and more faster than this. because you can clearly see that alonso is not even close too the limit of that car and his driving skills, he was just having fun not pushing it.

[@brolo7234]

What's crazy is that someone did this on the grooved tyres version and got a 4:44 with the right tune settings. The 2001-2004 cars are just unhinged monsters and really it weirds me out that people genuinely still doubt these vehicles. Ralf Schumacher drove his 2003 Williams around recently with new pirelli mediums fitted. And despite the fact the laps were show laps where he wasn't really pushing that hard, the car was undertuned, the engine lowered to 850 hp instead of the race 950, underreved to a lower RPM, etc, Ralf still put in a lap that was only 4 seconds behind pole position of the modern cars... Yeah...I think the older cars would definitely put up an insane fight if they were fitted proper slicks and slight adjustments were made to their design. Those cars were just outrageously agile.

[@josephcote7702]

I managed a 4:57 on a stock setup, minus softs on and adjustments to the brake bias. I could see the car going deep into the 4:40's with a good setup.

The 919 Evo WR is 4:41 (held by me). F2004 on slicks is much faster than the 919 Evo...

919 Evo hit higher top speed on main straight around 30km/h higher than f2004 but it was slower pretty much everywhere else on the circuit. The f2004 car regularly went 330-340kmh even on curvier parts on the circuit resulting in higher average speed which translates to quicker time

[@jakubkrcma]

@@jeonghopark3632 The real lap of the 919 Evo was very slow. The car can do much better (for example, it can take all the fast corners flat - going slower was just a safety thing, intentional, not the car's limit). In reality, F2004 (on the grooved tyres it actually used) and 919 Evo would do basically the same lap time. But on slicks, the F2004 would beat anything, including any modern F1 car.

reasons why they used grooved racing tyres instead of slick racing tyres 1. it provided too much cornering speed, because slick tyres allowed for full tyre grip, rather than the grooved tyres, which only the grooved part not making contact with the road. 2. the car had quite a lot of power, thus allowed the f1 car to reach top speeds faster than modern f1 3. it meant more sets of tyres per race, thus grooved tyres proved to be useful in both wet and dry conditions
