I'm surprised at Lestatdark, considering youve raced yourself. And how much your into F1.

You should be able to see exactly why that video of GT5P shows lack of realism. Not realism.

Just shows ( not aimed at Lestatdark ) to many people who think they know about racing play GT these days. Because of it's huge name, people think something it's not. 

It reminds me of some of the guys who started watching F1 in 2005 or 6 for instance. Posting on forums thinking they know it all. And yet are so far from having a clue. 

Watch again in the video. 

Massa is explaining each corner and gear he is using. there is at least 7 times weher he states a gear he used for the corner where GT5P footage next to it didnt even use the gear. 

Massa says " Here right up to 7th" 

GT5P footage only used up to 6. 

Another he says down to gear 2. GT5P only down to 3.

This happened alot in the video you guys call realisitc. In an F1 car, missing these gears is enough to make the difference to Massas time 2 secs on it's own for the lap.

Like I said GT5P 'time marry's'.

Get your head out of the clouds and watch and 'listen' to the footage again. The GT5P gear number is displayed right there for you to see the issues.

I didn't even saw the video. I think the argument for comparing a simulator, be it GT, Forza, rFactor, GTR, GP2 or any other to a real lap is pretty pointless.

I just found it odd that he commented exactly like a comment in the video comments on youtube. That's why I think he didn't even bother to come up with a reply, he just copy pasted it.
