rFactor 2: Bentley Continental GT3 2020 e nuovo BoP disponibili

Già annunciata qualche giorno fa, è ora disponibile la Bentley Continental GT3 2020. La vettura, con un motore di 550 cv, ha già ottenuto alcuni successi prestigiosi, come la vittoria nella 1000 km del Paul Ricard nel 2019 e la vittoria nella 12 ore di Bathurst 2020. I giocatori di rF2 avranno ora la possibilità di guidare questa vettura nella simulazione di Studio 397 ed è disponibile in maniera gratuita per chiunque possegga la precedente Bentley GT3 (singolarmente o come parte del GT3 Bundle)

• Engine: 4.0-litre direct injection twin-turbo V8 developed with the most advance lubricants from Mobil 1 and a Cosworth engine management system
• Max Power: Approx. 550 bhp derestricted
• Transmission: Rear wheel drive, Ricardo six-speed sequential longitudinal gearbox, steering wheel mounted paddle-operated pneumatic gear shift
• Drivetrain: Carbon fibre propshaft, limited slip differential
• Wheels: BBS Forged Motorsport 18” x 13” rims
• Tyres: 355 / 705 R18
• Aerodynamics: Carbon fibre front splitter, rear wing and body panels. Lightweight, aerodynamically-optimised bumpers, bonnet, sills and fenders
• Length: 4860 mm
• Width: 2045 mm
• Height: 1355 mm
• Weight: <1300 kg

Insieme a questa nuova vettura è arrivato ovviamente un nuovo aggiornamento del Balance of Performance dedicato alle vetture GT3. Il BoP viene utilizzato per permettere a vetture diverse di gareggiare insieme alla pari rispettando alcune regole. Così come nel mondo reale anche su rF2 si tenta di garantire questa parità di prestazioni. Gli sviluppatori e i tester hanno speso un numero incalcolabile di ore per cercare il giusto compromesso tra parità nelle prestazioni e differenziazione delle auto, in modo che ogni vettura mantenesse le proprie caratteristiche intrinseche.

Ecco di seguito il changelog completo del BoP. Commenti nel topic dedicato
