Great read, thanks for all the updates and comments.

So glad things went well for them.
I was a little worried that the forum would have exploded with more negativity.
 
@Lazza i don't know any chat and i don't use Discord.
I only pointed that is strange (for me) that in the oficial web of the race isn't mentioned the sim used for the most important race of the year.
IMHO it's a shame and a bad thing for rF2

I meant the FAQ on the site.

The commentators during the race were mentioning rF2 a lot and they talked about it in a good way. That was better for rF2 than all the repetitive negativity on this forum.

So you assume that if people notices negative things and speak their mind, then it is negative ? So your school of thought is don't be a messenger of anything what is not positive ? That is wise. I'll certainly use this when I'll decide to safe mode through life, and just aim to be likeable. Many people does it, and it is smart strategy.

Commentators job is to be professional and don't say anything upsetting, controversial or angering. It is their profession.

You are comparing apples and oranges. There are different places for different kind of talk. Forums are for discussions. Discussions involve arguing and it is not negativity. Negativity is when free discussions are moderated in order to curb one side of view. So I don't think that there is so much negativity in the forum. A lot of negative opinions about rF2 comes from unsatisfying development of past years. And having negative opinion about negative thing in my mind is positive. Just basic mathematics.
 
Ignoring your sound argument about negativity,(which I agree with) I'll repeat myself. rF2 was mentioned this year. The youtube chat had an automatic response, triggered by "!game" by any viewer/moderator, that automatically identified rF2 as the sim. The commentators, whether instructed or not, spoke of rF2 several times over the hours I watched and I assume throughout the broadcast. THIS was the positive to be taken from the event.
 
It certainly could have been made clearer but there are some adverts on the track

Is there any full Race Replay available somewhere?
I've searched the Web already but didn't find one.
Preferably in German Language, but English is OK too.
 
David Perel (he drove with Ferrari FDA GTE team):

A lot of people ask my opinion of rFactor 2 and I have to admit that it has lost pace with iRacing and ACC. It no longer feels like a simulator, with a driving style that requires drifting to be fast and setups that exploit the physics... I would love to see a big update for the game as it is still fun to drive. But right now it's not a simulator in the true sense of the word.

Yes, we all know he has stakes in ACC. Sells stuff for iRacing and ACC and in general is a big sellout yada yada yada. Just posting his opinion for those that did not see that.

Funny, Kasper Stoltze who drove the exact same car with David Perel, mentioned in the danish livestream in a interview that "what he like about rfactor2 vs Iracing was that he could push the car more to the edge without loosing it, where in Iracing if pushing he would loose it quite faster".
its in this twitch at 10:55:30 or so (in danish).

One doesn't negate the other, actually it even fits. It is widely known that iRacing looses grip too fast over the limit. rFactor2 doesn't. Which is even consistent with sliding the car to be faster (there was a very long discussion in 2021 about unrealistic driving techniques here on the forums).
