st184 sillycar Forums Junkie Location: Melbourne Registered: June 2004	WELL: Wed, 23 June 2004 06:20 Traction control DOESN'T sort the brake balance in F1 - You know how everyone makes a kerfuffle about who does and doesn't left-foot brake? It's because the talented dudes feather the throttle on the way into the apex, to effectively trim the brake balance forward and back as they need it, while trail braking. The F1 bit is meant to be seperate from the trail-braking description. It's just the best place I can think of to watch truly masterful trail-braking in action. As for Schumi doing the same thing over and over again? He does that to a degree in the DRY because He can. i.e. He's found the quickest way 'round, and he knows how to repeat that ideal lap, even as the car changes beneath him (tyres going off, fuel load changing etc.). Did you see Monaco last month? He busted out 3 lap records in a row just before his pitstop - each faster by the amount of time you gain burning a lap's fuel load This comment leads me to believe you've never seen M.S. DOMINATE wet races, which he does almost every time it rains. He changes his lines & braking points every lap when there's varying grip - always going faster than anyone else on the same tyres. Often going faster than people with better tyres than him! Get your backside to Albert Park next year to watch in person, standing just up from the turn-in point on the outside of the track. You'll see what I'm talking about then, as the T.V. disguises all the speed and subtleties. -Oh yeah, I'm a big fan of Montoya too, but the Michelins are the key to his blistering pace on fresh rubber - they have a soft outer shell which lasts 2-4 laps, before graining up and falling off. Gotta luv watchin a guy with balls as big as Montoya's though [Report message to a moderator]
