    But it is not about usual suspension system. I think rF2 kinematics and dynamics of how chassis moves are pretty good.

    Yes, active suspension was banned because it was deemed a moveable Aerodynamic device. It allowed the car to maintain a more constant ride height regardless of the road surface or body roll and pitch optimizing the undertray generated aero performance.

    And that's the main reason Senna didn't won 1992 and 1993 championships... A man vs a machine...

    It would be cool if any sim decided to add active suspension race car.

    Lol...

    Not a question of being unhappy or something, it was just an unfair advantage. And nothing agains Mansell or Prost, i'm fan of both either...

    F1 had some stupid decisions those years, like the active suspension sudden ban that made cars uncontrollable, you lost 2 drivers and tracks had to be all redesigned that year to minimize the possible deaths...
