That's 2016 BAKU layout. Some of those curbs are taller in 2019 and the last corner before you can flat-out towards cherquered flag is much tighter in real life.
Zgumuz _ I noticed the last corner and thought I had missed a layout change or something. In F1 2018 the final dry corner’s kerb is about 6-8 feet further into the braking zone Thanks for clearing that up.
@@aaaaaaaa-xm6kl Well, Australia had all types of stories playing out, we got to see cars compared to eachother, and had a fine race on our hands at nearly all times. China had horrendous camerawork, other than that, Ferrari doing all strategical sins, whilst midfield was the hottest of all four races so far, even if cameras didn't show it. Baku finally had a race, instead of a tragic shitshow (or an actual non-race in it's first inclusion). Was basically like China, but with an even stupider straight. Even F2 couldn't have a proper race there, and that's a series that can have a great one at Monaco for example, and has had for last multiple years. End of. The other reply to my comment gave a pretty good short explanation of your symptoms.
Good run Jimmer! You really help me learn how to run different cars. I’m still fairly new to sim racing and I’m learning a lot from your videos. Please never stop mate.
The track on this mod feels very different to the one in the F1 game, the corners look like they aren't as tight. But I wouldn't know which one is the accurate one
I was just about to make this comment. There are 3 corners I can clearly see that are different in both games which are T1, T7 & T16 I think. AC allows you to go tighter on all of them it seems.
T1 looks weird too, way to much space on the inside, feels like you don't need to slow down as much. The first part of the track just feels weird to' my eyes, the corners seem way faster
I did a 1:41.922 on the same version of the track in the Formula Hybrid 18, which would be the equivalent of P5 (in 2018). I usually struggle to beat the P20 times on other tracks so I think this version of Baku is either too small or has other inaccuracies that make it much faster compared to the real world track. Nice driving nonetheless!
This is the 2016 layout, the turn before the long straight is a little different. There is a 2017, slightly more accurate version out there. Not on race department though think I found it on TH-cam
@@Jt7166 I just tried it and did a 1:41.777. It's pretty much identical except for the updated T8 (entrance to the old city), that makes it even faster.
Btw jimmy, the merc has the spiked windshield. U add that by going to the visuals in the car setup window and selecting the second option in the toggle button bellow the halo toggle. Just throwing it out there to make it more visually accurate.
Hey jimmy, using top speed ERS actually has a lower top speed than hotlap ERS so it probably would have been better to stick with hotlap mode at the of the lap.
Love the video as usual Jimmer, but the track seems really elongated, certainly the straight after turn 2... maybe it is that long, just never seemed it on TV. Weird.
A tow was worth 0.3 secs to Botas quali time so well done. You can go 'balls to the wall' though safe in the knowledge you have unlimited resets. Doing that circuit for real and being as fast as they were is pretty staggering.
Hi Jim. I want to get into SIM racing. I don't have any equipment. Can you recommend some things that I might want to look into for purchasing? I see sometimes you use VR goggles and sometime you use (I guess) a computer, I would more like to use the goggles (or do I need them both). Please help me if you would. I much appreciate it.
According to my calculations if you use the Ferrari car you’d get a better lap time, sure they are faster in a straight line until James went and put oil onto their tires so they couldn’t heat them up properly in Qualy, also causing Leclerc crash KaPpA
It sucks. F1 is becoming unwatchable nowadays. No real pushing cause tires overheat rapidly, teams other than top 3 can't fight for podiums (they even can't keep up with them and usually end up being lap down every frickin race), amount of engine parts for a 21 races is just dreadful (2-3, pathetic). And I can't stand when some people say that this is exciting? Really? Go and watch season 2006, 2007, 2010 or 2012. This is proper racing. Great vid btw Jimmer.

Yes!
Do you mean in reverse gear or do the lap the wrong way round?
Why not both?

The best thing is that Bottas is actually winning the championship right now by 1 point. BOTTAS :O
Valtteri its james
The corner before the big straight is too short, too close to the wall, it's not even by a small margin either
yea thats the 2016 layout of baku
@@iasonstv5907 there is a more modern (2017) version I found the other day, seems slightly more accurate
Jt7166 what website did u find it on might I ask
That’s why he got a faster time because that penultimate corner was much easier and didn’t loose you as much time back then
BoneYard oh yeah fair enough forgot about that one being a bit longer so to speak
The track on this mod feels very different to the one in the F1 game, the corners look like they aren't as tight. But I wouldn't know which one is the accurate one
Yeah, last 90deg corner (to straight) not so tight here as in RL or game.

Hey jimmy, using top speed ERS actually has a lower top speed than hotlap ERS so it probably would have been better to stick with hotlap mode at the of the lap.
I died, conservatively, about 25 times trying this over the weekend.
Bottas had a huge Tow when he set that pole lap too.
@@Jt7166 Not rlly, go see his actual pole, the toe was minimal...
@@GiorGiiTV when your lap times are this low, a tow worth a tenth or two is a huge amount
@@Jt7166 Not really Bottas still had a better time than Hamilton the toe didn't gain even a full tenth...
@@GiorGiiTV I honestly feel like Lewis had a bigger toe but Bottas drove a better lap
Since subscribing to your channel I seem to get a lot of video recommendations about building sheds. 😂
This is my favorite circuit on the calendar. It’s a challenging track to manage and drive fast on.
Well done, J.B. Always enjoy your beat-the-lap videos.
Love the video as usual Jimmer, but the track seems really elongated, certainly the straight after turn 2... maybe it is that long, just never seemed it on TV. Weird.
Bwwaaaahhh Jimmer puts it on pole!!! First time in his hotlap career. great video again keep up the good work.
Dude that was intense! You could actually feel the speed... too bad it doesn't work like that in the F1 games
Glad you made it under the bridge okay. That clearance needs to be checked. Well done...Jimmers!!!
Well done Jimmer!! Impressive drive mate
Love this track. Was geeking out finally seeing it for real in the race on 4/28. Turn 8 looks scarier in the game than real life.
Well done, Jimmy! Impressive driving.
The turn 8 kerb slows you down, it has anticut kerbs, which arent present in the 2019 layout
A tow was worth 0.3 secs to Botas quali time so well done. You can go 'balls to the wall' though safe in the knowledge you have unlimited resets. Doing that circuit for real and being as fast as they were is pretty staggering.
It's definitely harder than it looks, great video! 👍
You could be faster easy by adjusting the ERS while driving ✌🏼
I love your driving! Keep it up
I did in on the last lap, but tbf I was having trouble keeping up with it whilst driving.
4:04 favourite part of the track for sure.
I was half asleep while watching and T1 on your first lap really woke me up
this is where actually using the dials on the wheel for bias and ERS modes come in handy
Respect because Bottas even had slipstream 👏well done jimmer
Bro I don’t think you know what u just done 🔥🔥I don’t know how many tries you had off line but you beat bottas in 18 min well done
Great video, thanks, Jimmer!
Love the Baku circuit in f1 2018. Can’t wait for 2019 to come out! Hopefully they improve the circuit mapping
Inspirational pole beating skills Jimmer!
“Get in there Jimmy. What a lap!”
Don't forget that vettel also said the slipstream is worth about 3 tenths, if you had another car on track you could put bottas in his place
Did Bottas get a tow on his pole lap though ?
@@neilmcmahon yes that's why they did the "practice start" he was behind everyone except Lewis and vettel was rung out to dry in front
Love the F1 style graphics there
F ( If you know, you know )
My respects were paid.
Wow great lap man!
Bottas did have a tow to be fair which is worth as much as 0.5s around Baku. Very powerful with that huge straight.
Thanks for the intro thought my earphone died
Great job Jimmy!!!
Who would win:
Millions of dollars of R and D and the top drivers and engineers

Going for the "drive fast, beat BottASS" award I see
How exactly is the mod car plus track called and do you use some additional things like a special skin for the car?
F for Leclerc.
Yes I was able to pause it at 0:31 to read it xD
Fs in the chat
Every curbstone is much lower, so you can go over it much faster and is it me or is turn 16 much wider?
Baku is that tryhard track. That has a bloody dirty move for the heck of it.
Nice🏁
Nice one. Mind you 3 hundredths ahead without the testicular weight penalty Bottas et al carry on board isn't that big a deal eh?
Hi Jimmy a question no sécurité problem with vr and direct drive...?
Bro, do you realise that you are faster than vettel?😂😂
Sorroundings and track are extremely different in these two scenarios.
@@Simon-rz3mf he's Just trying to trigger the fans. #Seb5
Vettel needs testo prescribed. Why is noone ever talking about his mantits? Hes like a Latina, just without ass...
Also faster Than Hamilton
Yeahwhat’a going on with Seb..
Tyre pressure, soften up gain grip
Jimmy please make the intro stereo lol. Great vid tho :D
Not bad man,GG!
I put in a 1:42 not assist and with a controller (harder cus they suck)
Why is your vr camera always a little bit on the left?
Yes get in there jimmy
What's your PC setup and which Glasses are you using Jimmy?
I'm in the market for some soon.
What is that for a shader pack you talked about for correct tire display ?
The last corner seems more gentle than the real circuit.
Looks a lot different in the corners than in F1 2018. Corners look easier, more open. BETTER!
Well done jimmy
i've always hated how in VR the camera is to the left and not in the middle
Tried to install this from the link, it appears to be a fix but cannot find the track it`s self, gutted.
Which mod is this? Isn’t the RSS Formula Hybrid is it?
Do you know where I can get this track mod? thanks in advance!
Would it be faster if you stayed on the left side of the track on last straight?
Would be cool to see Jimmy's lap and bottas lap side by side???
Really well done man, but I' m quite sure the track condition wasn't 100% but instead it was Dusty so more like 90%
Last corner is diffrent than real one right?
maybe the wall is just closer
He finally does it
yesterday watching Nicki Thiim, and now bashing Bottas over his quali lap. Welcome to Jimmy B style :P
you really need to install SOL, it makes this track look so much better with the sunlight.
