XCAR is a YouTube channel for auto enthusiasts, and they have released a video taking a look at a Formula One simulator. Ben Costanduros got the opportunity to test out a Cranford Motorsport Simulator, and talks about how simulators are ushering in a new generation of training for drivers.

The simulator runs on a version of rfactor, with the video featuring a Formula One car at Bahrain. After running a first trial, Ben consults with a data analyst to figure out where he can improve in the next run. It’s quite remarkable that rFactor 1 is still one of the go-to sims for training purposes. The video is definitely worth a watch, and if you’re a car enthusiast, you may like some of the other videos on their channel.
What are your thoughts on the next generation of professional racers coming from a virtual environment? Have you ever watched XCAR’s videos?
Running rF1. Pro isn’t available to private simulation companies or individuals.
Nice video though, great passion in the piece.
Thanks, I’ll change it
No problem! Thank you.
