One tiny lapse of concentration and you're screwed, especially with a low grip car. With all the special events and team events and regular career races taking up so much time I feel I can't afford to race without assists on a regular basis. I have had little issues with races where assists are turned off (special events and team challenges), but that's because in one race - one track and one car - you can figure out the braking points fairly quickly. With all these tracks and widely differently handling cars in the game, it's a huge challenge to do this everytime.

i cant say i disagree more with braking points. most cars are the same. some cars you can leave it a little later and some have to be a little sooner but most are around the same point.

eg. le mans. porchel in EK on the 1st chicane can brake at the 100 mark or even the double tower of tyres. the audi can brake at the 100 mark and the toyota needs to brake just a little before. the next chicane i use the last green mesh as a marker. the porche can go past this. audi just a little past it and the toyotajust at the end of the mesh.

most cars follow this rule. if they are very fast at accelearation compared to brake then i use the toyota theme. if very grippy like all porche's then i use the porche method.

once you have a marker for every coner then use that and it quickly become obvious if it needs to be shy of the mark or if you can go a little further.
