Hey Philipp, you're a legend, thanks for your comment. 1) pumping the brakes is quite common in racing. Sometimes a pad pushes the brake pistons back enough so that when you go braking it takes longer distance to push the pedal. 2) up and down shifts on the same paddle shifter is inspired to karts, a very common feature on those vehicles.

​@@R6AAO50/50 is the ideal in theory, but in practice you want a bit more weight over the rear thanks to how weight transfer works. Under braking, this means you get better overall usage of all four tires as the balance shifts forwards, and on acceleration you immediately have more available traction.

Dude breaks way too early. This car has way more grip.

Depends on which lap though, grip doesn't come on until roughly the 6th to 8th lap

200 mph is 320 km/h, not 300. 300 km/h is 186 mph.
