It was a good time. Jean had landed on the Wardship, gotten accustomed to his home for the next four months, gotten through the legal stuff and made the proper signing for the team, and immediately gotten to testing the car. While it was bloody fast and not too hard to control, there was an obvious downside to the vehicle.
The tyres. They degraded too quickly, sometimes didn’t benefit from the automatic temperature systems, and turned slower than a Brass Beast.
Jean filed a feedback report after having tested for so long.
JEAN MERCER-DALY- UHSGV-2 FEEDBACK REPORT
Jean here. If you can’t already tell, I’ve had quite the experience with the new car. I have some feedback for you to make it a little better.
-The downforce at lower speeds is a perfect fit but when the vehicle approaches max speed it feels a bit too heavy on the car. Of course this won’t apply to every track but it should in most. Lower the downforce balance when at higher speeds. It’ll make those high speeds higher still.
-The car is slow to get out of the really low speed corners. It may have an automatic launch system (the PA-AS) but it could also need a system to deliver more power when accelerating at lower speeds.
-Just to let you know I did deliberately test the IASG two or three times. It works great.
-Additionally, the RMEO is also under control. It was hard to get used to at first but once I did it went smoothly.
-And now, as expected... the tyres. They’re awful. If anything needs improvement first it’s these. I do have some ideas but keep me in touch if you need them.
Afterwards a quick look at the calendar told Jean the first test in Taeshan was... the next weekend? That was fast.
Well, Jean was ready now. No reason not to be.
Except for the tyres. They still suck.
