it consists of driving on rough surfaces (with high FFB to be able to hold the car) to saturate the suspensions which apparently makes the car go faster.
you know where that leads with those fancy directdrive wheels everybody at the top uses? arm pump syndrome. so not only is esports gamemaxing once again making a mockery of racing, the teams are also putting their drivers' health in danger - because that hour of driving on broadcast was at best 5% of their driving time for this round.

Of course they're red bull sponsored lol, that's the most RBR-esque thing I've ever seen in simracing. "Here's an obvious game exploit that we're all using but you didn't say we COULDN'T do it so it's perfectly legal same for everyone blah blah"
Good to know I'd be at an advantage with my old reliable belt drive wheel. /s
i know this is sarcasm but actually belt drive wheels can't handle this because the mechanism wouldn't react quick enough to allow you to hold the car straight
Can you not just disable the FFB so you're just telling the car to go straight regardless of what it's trying to do? Or specifically does the FFB need to be maxed so the wheel is moving around in order to keep it straight?
from my understanding, the latter through a reaction that is essentially a rhythm game. the former will cause you to have the tiniest parasitic input that'll send the car in the wall
they won't, and if iracing says anything without fixing the thing they'll try everything to keep doing it without running afoul of the temporary guidance/rules (there is precedent for this)
in terms of exploits? you better believe it. in terms of risking the drivers' long term health? never i think. but then again this very race also had a kid very clearly holding back tears while on broadcast after bottling a race that is nowhere close to being a title decider so i think this championship might just be reaching new lows: https://www.youtube.com/live/MRtM1r67F30?feature=shared&t=6571
