Hi nicol@cciarri
It's a realistic 2002 performance file.
I realize that there is other performance files out there, but please give me a chance as well to contribute to this great game.
I'm also doing this, because I wasn't 100% happy with the existing 2002 performance files out there and I wasn't sure where they got their information from.
These are for example the real avg. gap to pole position for 2002 drivers:
Michael Schumacher 100.150
Rubens Barrichello 100.415
Ralf Schumacher 100.603
Juan Pablo Montoya 100.666
Kimi Räikkönen 101.239
David Coulthard 101.344
Jarno Trulli 101.972
Jenson Button 102.175
Nick Heidfeld 102.267
Giancarlo Fisichella 102.463
Felipe Massa 102.565
Jacques Villeneuve 102.637
Olivier Panis 102.728
Mika Salo 102.818
Eddie Irvine 103.153
Allan McNish 103.195
Heinz-Harald Frentzen 103.287
Pedro de la Rosa 103.335
Enrique Bernoldi 104.048
Mark Webber 104.253
Takuma Sato 104.640
Alex Yoong 106.103
I tried to stick to this. Some of the other performance files, the time gaps between pole and last place are to close, a gap of about 2.5sec.
I also used real data for the retirement rate of each team.
These are just a few data that I've been working with. Things like the ability range come from my own perspective on each driver and looking at what their best and worst position was. The fact that Sato didn't achieve much until Suzuka makes it difficult to strike a good balance, but that is why I'm running it through a few sims.
I will realy try and send it Friday. I don't like to brake promisses.
Enjoy the Melbourne race this weekend...........I can't wait.
