WHAT AM I WATCHING? - iRacing Road to 6K #5

[@TheMineA7]

This is honestly so much more enjoyable than F1 Esports. I need more of these iRacing vids

[@andyw_]

F1 esports isn’t truly competitive. It’s competitive in the sense it’s a game but it’s not truly a drivers simulator

[@danielkristiansen2298]

@@andyw_ I have not watched F1 esport this year, but how is it not competitive? Are anyone (Ronhaar? Blakeley? Opmeer?) just completely running away with it?

[@gp2jm]

@@danielkristiansen2298 Lucas crashed midgame and a manual VSC was deployed ruining a quarter of the grid's race. The game gave people wrong tires and cost Longuet a win in the bag. It's just ridiculous to host esports events on a game buggy like this. Jarno rage quit because of the VSC and got a 3-place grid penalty in Silverstone but still won it btw

[@andyw_]

@@danielkristiansen2298 I mean that the game it’s self is not competitive compared to the level or status it wishes to achieve. Iracing, acc, rensport etc have offered a much higher standard. Opmeer, has shown he’s a cut above and I think those other drivers can go to these sims and be amazing. The game is a massive far cry in terms of precision and true simulation

[@Alzoryne]

@@gp2jmjarno retiring had nothing to do with the vsc. he started p12 and had a penalty early in the race. he retired like 7 laps after the vsc. you must really hate the game if you’re trying to use fake facts to say it’s bad

[@Nico19907]

Jarno not knowing the iRacing Blue Flag is the most Jarno thing ever 😂

[@lowelont7746]

How does it work then

[@Nico19907]

@@lowelont7746 In Auto Racing, the Blue flag with the yellow diagonal stripe means that faster cars are approaching. Commonly referred to as the Courtesy Flag, this flag in real life only applies to NASCAR but is used in iRacing for any racing series. The flag is there to tell backmarkers (slower lapped traffic or slower cars in general) to give way to faster cars. Sometimes when the backmarkers fail to adhere to the courtesy flag, they may get a drive-through penalty. In iRacing, the flag behaves a little bit differently than in the real world. The flag in the sim is just there to tell you that there is a faster car approaching behind you. Drivers are not obligated to obey the blue flag but are obligated to hold their racing line and should take notice of it and let the faster car pass by safely and cleanly.

[@lowelont7746]

@@Nico19907 Thanks for the explanation, now hope that Jarno sees this

[@Nico19907]

[@reliablyJEllis]

@@Nico19907this flag applies to more than just NASCAR they have blue flags in F1 too the wheel lights up blue if you’re lapped and need to let a car through Edit: forgot some words tried to read it back and had a stroke

Jarno so used to being in front he doesn't know what the blue flag is lmao

Wait, is this the guy who won at Silverstone? What a pleasure to see your videos

bro took tyres in a 45min race :D

[@hey_tonyyy]

blue flag with yellow stripe means watch out for faster cars approaching behind. you don’t need to yield in endurance, but you do need to be aware

[@Haltzo]

You're allowed to go over the yellow line on the road course of Daytona, it's only on the oval layout you get off-tracks for it.

[@LizzieMcgraw]

Bro, your videos are gold.

[@jrshgligh7833]

Jarno is such a bot at anything non formula racing and i love it 🤣🤣bro asked what the blue flag was and how he had never done a pit entry

[@lucaszimbar4381]

Love this iRacing content❤

[@awexommxnreal2792]

I love the Daytona road course

[@PedroReiis]

10:05 he didnt turned in, he did the normal line, you half sended it ahah

[@Dont14-r4k]

He was at the apex in the corner, thats not a send. The lower-class driver should give the LMP the right of way.

[@Martin-qk5oo]

New challenge: Last to first at Monaco with Williams, 110% Ai, Full wet, long race, simulation damage with controller

I love this series so much man ❤

[@alexanderbockmann9229]

Hey Jarno cool vid, are you doing this as James is to drive in the next endurance event in top split?

[@danielw.2884]

Depending on event and class you are looking at around 8k requirement for top split nowadays. So if this should be the goal: Happy us, a lot of grind videos incoming

[@davidweatherston562]

Doesnt know the blue flags, cant do a pitstop, too much fuel. Still nearly 6k! Imagine if you tried!

[@th3edge0]

Jarno is already the best F1 simracer ever, and I'm waiting for him to become the best simracer in general.

[@NiederDrifts]

Im waiting for best racer racer

[@_ilsegugio_]

starting to think iRacing is not revamping their graphics to something kinda XXI century just to be gracious and leave others a chance such an amazing game honestly

[@pascalschmidt2135]

You did Imsa this week at road atlanta? I think I saw you having contact with dan suzuki

Jarno can you make a video as part of road to 6k where you race using a Logitech g29 setup? 😂

[@destraxe]

Ain't blud meant to be practicing for eSports😭

[@boboburn7477]

He is. In order for the Mercedes eSports team to be racing in the top splits in various races in iRacing they have to have high irating. James is also grinding irating for example.

this recording is over a month old

Because in the real car the sitting position is also not aligned with the wheel. You can change it in the camera settings though.

[@jabrur]

@@harlandsanders1522 that would actually grind my gears 😂

We’ve no idea on what position you’re racing because your big head is in the way Jarno 😂😂 Maybe better to put you’re videoscreen on the left side😅

[@etrcentenario9737]

21:40 thats one of the dumbest 4xs ive seen. the fact it was so delayed and only happened because the other guy couldnt hold his car. be nice if iracing could do away with the no fault system and use logic in some way.

[@ZOLTN54]

The reason there was a crash was cause the car behind hit the faster one when it broke to avoid hitting jarno

day 2 of asking to bring back subtitles so i can watch more easily (im from brazil)

I know it’s an unpopular opinion but I do find iRacing quite boring to watch. I also have never played it I will add. But it just seems like there’s never that much action in the races? A lot of following cars in the same class as you. I’m interested as to why people love the vids so much. I’m gonna stick with it and keep watching anyway! 😂

[@SkylineLynar]

Everyone has there preferences but idk I found that multi lap battle with the green car while naviagting the slower traffic while also getting out of the way for the faster cars was very entertaining, seeing both cars taking different lines while still battling each other was crazy.

Why’s he blocking the relative, just add an overlay so the fans can see who’s he racing and what position he’s in

He has. It was because of the time he had before the race. He said so in the beginnig of this video
