Thanks, this video helped a lot! I always played with heavy front bias, up to 70-30 front as it helps with turning in.....but then always wondered why everyone else was able to slow down much faster. And for a while I didn't even consider how brake distance is related to brake bias. I have learned to drive with a balanced brake bias and without rear lock. Basically, you need to brake a lot harder initially and then have a shorter/less heavy trail braking as the longer you trail brake, the more the brakes heat up and possibly lock up. For each track, you need to find the limit how much to brake and how much trail braking you can do without rear lock.

These videos are epic, you deserve more subs, like way more!

You generally want more brake bias in the long braking zones like in the first chicane at Monza because it aids in straight line stability. Since the weight transfer will be towards the front, having the brake bias towards the front will shorten brake distance. For a corner like Parabolica, you generally want less brake bias to reduce understeer and help turn in.

Try decreasing bias little by little for corners like Monza T1 until it feels like it has the turn-in you need, then you know that Turn 1 is best taken with 'x' amount of brake bias and you have loads of time on the main straight to set the bias, then loads of time after T1 to put it back to normal for the rest of the course. If the car has understeer everywhere then you're looking at a different problem.

The best way to dial in the brake bias is simplier then that brake and ajust until the front tires stop blocking then u have it pretty much balanced

Thanks Danny, never actually thought of it like that. This is why iLMS this week at Sebring is going so bad. Keep locking up into the chicane, and losing the back elsewhere. Any comments on changing with fuel load?

Sebring is a fantastic example of brake bias being key to setting great race pace - if I don't tweak the bias forward a bit I find the last turn REALLY dicey, and if I don't tweak it back a bit for the deep braking zone into the hairpin I often lock up. It only takes one screw-up to start a whole chain reaction of mistakes so reducing them is always worthwhile. Fuel load burn off affects different cars in different ways - fuel burnoff and tyre wear affect the car and sometimes I find the car is twitchier the lighter it gets, I more often than not offset the bias forward one or two steps when that starts to be the case.

Thanks a lot for this video. I'm playing Assetto Corsa, and even though I know I should adjust my brake bias, I've been scared of touching it just in case I make a mistake

Thanks so much for the videos Danny! They are really helping me lowering my times, specially this video. Just one question, it may sound a bit stupid, but anyways…do this guidelines (more front brake bias for trail braking, more rear brake bias for long straights braking) work the same for rear wheel drive cars as for front wheel drive cars? Thanks again Danny!

@dannyleeracing

2 жыл бұрын

Yes, generally speaking the same rules still apply but it's best to take the inspiration gained from this video to do some trial and error and see what works for you - if you need the car to rotate more under braking, you reduce brake bias, and vice versa - front wheel drive race cars tend to be loose at the rear because it helps them turn when the front wheels are simultaneously pulling the nose of the car, that's why you see front wheel drive racing hatchbacks sometimes doing a tripod around corners on track! They're built to do it.

Great vid!

Do ABS settings affect how you should set your brake bias? Is this most effective with a car that does not have ABS?

I would like to add that just to get people into considering brake-bias at all they should at least do some practice sessions where the fiddle with the pre-set brake bias. It's hard to overstate how much even just that can transform your experience on track. I say that who only somewhat recently started to use brake-bias as well.

The brake bias changes in Assetto Corsa are in 0.2% increments (I think). I have it bound to a rotary encoder on my Ferrari wheel and for some changes of around 2% your thumb is just a blur. They need to make the incremental change editable on a car by car basis.

Hi mate. Just started playing iRacing. I’m driving the Ferrari GT3 in a fixed set race. What brake bias do you normally run on this car?

What do you reckon the time gain is on a hot lap? I set my Ferrari at Fuji to 54% all the time because I’m only just starting to learn it I found it to be more stable so I can constantly improve, but everyone I look at uses 52% but for me that’s so hard to control on Sector 3 I can do consistent times but I have a g920 so I rely heavily on getting my braking spot on as I cannot catch the slides as easily

That is one aspect im imressed by watching F1 drivers. Not only do they change brake bias many times per lap but also entry.diff / exit.diff and sometimes the engine brake values. Fascinating.

Do you know if it's possible to change the magnitude of a change per click in iRacing? I have a rotary encoder but it changes the bias in 0.1% increments which means I'm turning it two full rotations to go from 52% to 54%...

@dannyleeracing

I don't think there is - sometimes the bias increments are specific to each car, I saw somewhere that someone has to click an obscene number of times to change the bias to one end of the reasonable operating window to the other.

I haven't really adjusted my brake bias on the go but I thought it was the opposite. For big braking zones like at the end of the Monza straight needs lots of front bias because all the weight is on the front tyres like hard braking on a bicycle in a straight line. And to trail-brake we'd need to reduce the power from the fronts to get it to turn in more effectively. I'm surprised how close to 50 50 the bias are too. Thanks

@dannyleeracing

3 жыл бұрын

The 'default' amount of brake bias differs from car to car based on many factors, including weight distribution and the actual leverage/effectiveness of brakes at each axle. So in a front engined car the bias will be further forward than a rear engined car where most of the weight is at the back. That's the tricky thing about brake bias, it's not one size fits all, which is where the practical observations come from that you can only get by practicing and seeing the difference it makes. Try it for yourself and you'll find yourself experiencing less lockups and spins, at least in cars without ABS the difference is certainly felt. If learning to think about bias means you avoid just one front lockup into Monza T1, it'll have been worth it, and that's often the difference between keeping a place and losing it.

i have a question. Is brake bias relative to the shape and wheelbase of the car ? Because the weigh transfers during braking and some cars are better balanced than others in terms of weight distribution

Putting it in the rear would theoretically be the better option as it allows the car to slow down slightly quicker, but it might induce oversteer during trail braking. Risk versus reward.

Could you please comment on the effect of weight transfer? On a hard braking zone the car pitches front and is more loaded than the rear so there's more grip potential there. It seems counter intuitive to be at 49% bias at T1 in Monza given this effect... also I understand the stability factor for trail braking but you will be limiting your tuning potential while trail braking with a front bias because the tyres are asked to do two thing at the same time so thats where the rear wheels can help with a bit of extra trail braking. Just wanna hear you thoughts on that, great video :)

The key thing here is that the brake bias values we're talking about here are in a really tight window, like 1%-2% variance. Also don't pay too much attention to the values on screen as they differ from car to car, sim to sim. The Ferrari 488 is mid-engined so will have more weight balance toward the rear tyres than a front-engined BMW M8, for example, and this is reflected in the 'operating window' of brake bias that you find. Weight transfer is absolutely hand-in-hand with brake bias. If you brake in a straight line you can afford to use more braking on the rear wheels because you are not unloading either side of the rear axle in the braking zone and won't risk locking a rear and spinning out. Whereas if you are braking AND turning then you want to shift the balance towards the front to avoid spinning out. When you have a well-practiced lap and you've tweaked the brake bias per corner (if necessary) to be able to hit every corner in every lap reliably and without nerves, that's what will give you better results over race distance. If you're in any way interested in all of this then the Skip Barber book is absolutely the thing for you: amzn.to/33Jzulv

Very informative and well presented. I'm new to these aspects of racing - may I ask a question? Some videos have shown using throttle to 'balance' a vehicle whilst braking. Is Brake Bias a similar principle?

@dannyleeracing

3 жыл бұрын

You would use both principles, but the proportion of which depends on the car. For example, if we're talking a low speed formula car like the Skip Barber in iRacing, then you don't spend a lot of time braking and most of the corner is spent balancing with the throttle. Whereas a GT3 or GTE approaches fast enough to require a longer time on the brakes and the bias/balance takes effect for longer. It's a concept I want to go into in general with another video but I also have a video on how to stop spinning the skippy (Skip Barber) which touches on this and you may get a lot from watching that. All cars go faster when you master brake bias and throttle balancing, but the proportion of each depends on the car.

I use a Mclaren V2 wheel nowadays and I have my two thumb buttons above the handle grips set to BB up and BB down, they're the easiest buttons to reach whilst keeping both hands on the wheel

Thanks for this Danny I know mainly for GT but presume the same theory for F1?

It's basically the same theory for many things but certainly for F1, too, given there's no ABS. As mentioned in the video, there's that infamous video of Renault's brake bias changing automatically throughout the circuit that got them in trouble.

@Danny Lee I know that this is not a sim similar to iRacing, but do you think it will work in GT Sport as well? You can modify brake bias on the fly, but it has different scale from -5 to +5 with 0 as neutral position. I'm not sure is it worth trying in less realistic sims.

Yes, it definitely is worth trying. I've no first hand experience with GT Sport but I'm sure they've made an effort with all espects of driving simulation and brake bias should be no different. If there's a corner or braking zone you often find tricky braking into, bias change could be just the ticket

Danny Lee what about F1 2020?

@@SidOfRivia All racing sims and games should have a role for brake bias to play if they're even partly serious. Try it and see - increase front brake bias for tricky corners where you often spin under braking, decrease front brake bias for heavy straight line braking where you lock up the front wheels. If you have assists on it might have limited use for you but if you're assists-off then I'm sure it can be a factor.

Danny Lee Thanks for the reply, I currently run Abs and Traction control since i play on keyboard, my tmx will arrive in 3 days :)

Awesome video man. Just wondering, I've heard you need to adjust BB during race to account for fuel usage, any advice for doing this?

Over the course of the race, fuel will burn meaning wherever the fuel tank is situated will be less weighted and the car usually becomes more unstable or oversteery. In short, if you find the car starts to get a bit dicey and slidey on corner entry, you can add more front brake bias to counteract it. So if my 'neutral' bias was 51% on a full tank and fresh tyres, I might flick it to 51.5 or 52 to keep things on the safe side. It's not always necessary - only do it if you feel as though the car is getting 'looser' and you think you might lose it if it carries on

Quick suggestion. Instead of writing % for corners, have a baseline number and save the delta +1% t1, -1.5% t2. This might be less confusing to users who don’t realize or skip the info about different cars have different baseline balance.

When changing cars you just need to update the baseline number and likely the deltas should be spot on.

so, basically slightly to the front when there is an opportunity for trail braking and slightly to the rear when it's too tight to trail brake, yes?

Yes, think about it this way: If you're gonna have to trail brake, put it at the front. If there's no need to trailbrake, (like if all the braking happens before the turn), put it at the rear.

ok, which kind of corners needs an increase of the brake bias? which kind of corners needs a decrease of the brake bias? and which kind of corners needs a neutral brake bias?

Have a look at my updated brake bias guide! I do believe I go into that, worth a watch anyway! kzread.info/dash/bejne/qIF5mq6Fkru4qNY.html

can you do the same with TC?

Is there anyway in Iracing to increase the increment steps of the brake bias, for example in steps of 1% and not having to scroll 5 seconds to change it?
