As far as I’m concerned these are the worst cars in the game! But the problem isn’t the cars so much as the game ... Exactly the same complaint that I made when we had the GTE cars at Silverstone. In slower cars, if something goes wrong (remember, we don’t know what the car is doing, only what it’s already done) we might have time to catch and correct it, but with these cars it happens so quickly that there is simply no way, one second everything is fine and the next (without warning) the car is sliding, if you don’t fly off the track you lose so much time in a seemingly uncontrollable slide (remember, we don’t know what the car is doing, so trying to correct it is invariably a total guess) that the lap is wrecked either way.
 * No idea what the car is doing, only what it’s already done!
 * No control over the throttle (or brake).

They are an absolute nightmare in slow speed and constant radius corners. These cars might be enjoyable to drive if we had control of the car and some idea of what it is doing, but not with the current (and unlikely to ever be improved) game mechanics, such a shame. So I dread these cars turning up in WTTT and OMP and avoid driving them if possible. Not fun, just a recipe for frustration.
 * You slow down for a corner, the only way to get through and out of the corner is to use the throttle. But you have no control over the throttle! So exiting a low-speed corner is a roll of the dice.
 * Even worse is (as far as I’m concerned) the worst corner on this track, the penultimate long “hairpin” right. Brake into the corner, turn the car, now what, if you you touch the throttle you’ll probably go sideways, if you stay on the throttle you’ll definitely go sideways, if you tap-tap-tap the throttle you’ll induce oversteer ... and go sideways. For years players have been asking for a constant-throttle control if both the throttle and brake are pressed, we know the game supports this as they both show up on-screen, but (as usual) FM have ignored all such suggestions and not even bothered responding!
