In my new mini series Defining the Driver, episode 2 shows how the use of a simulator can help the driver learn the track and support the programme of work to maximise the drivers chances of a good result at even a new and unfamiliar track when previously such results were only in our dreams.

Hmm not wanting to be too critical, but I'm not sure it really shows that. It's mostly intro, with a few clips of simulation and driving, totaling 1 minute or so. Did I miss the body of the video elsewhere?


It's a great idea and I like the thought of some lunch break videos that show ways to improve.

Coyote boy, in fairness you aren't wrong. The video is part of a bigger video about how the guy approached her racing for the first time at Rockingham having never been there before. The sim work was a key part of what he did to learn the track so when he got there he could spend more time tuning the car and less deciding whether to turn left or right.
I decided to offer up a number of these "snippet" videos as exactly what you describe, insights to bigger videos that follow the first year of a friend of mine going racing.

Hope that helps with context? I appreciate the feedback though, at least someone is watching the video and taking the time to comment which makes it feel worthwhile.
