18. Aug Update: One Car Preview released. The Renault Re30B comes in 2 variants. The earlier (with wing) used in the first 5 races, may be easier to drive on slow tracks. The later model used (without front wing), may be faster on fast speed circuits. This preview is released so we can gather data from people. all constructive opinions are welcome in our Development Forum.
The combination of technical and sporting regulations used during this season prompted many complaints about safety before and during the season. The season saw two fatalities and many serious accidents. The season started with a drivers’ strike at the first race of the season. Later in the season, the disagreement between the sport’s governing body and the teams re-started and many of the teams boycotted the San Marino Grand Prix.
The two main technological themes of the 1982 season were turbocharging and ground effect. The large automotive manufacturers could afford to develop the expensive new technology of turbocharging, which offered a significant power advantage over naturally aspirated engines. However, turbocharged engines were heavy and initially suffered from turbo lag, a delay between the operation of the throttle and the delivery of power. The Renault and Ferrari factory teams, together with the small privateer Toleman team, were the only ones to use turbocharged engines throughout the 1982 season.

Just tested this a bit
It feels quite arcady but I guess ground effects made that feeling justified
My only small complain is the sounds , at full thrttlle it somehow feels like it was just half open only…
other than that it’s good preview

ho provato la mod f1 1982 devo dire che nell’insieme e veramente bella 2 cose andrebbero modificate la visione degli specchietti che ad altezza sedile standard non vedi le macchine che sopraggiungono, poi il fischio della turbina andrebbe accentuato.
per il resto è ok.

I tried the mod f1 1982 I must say that two whole and truly beautiful things would change the vision mirrors that seat height standard will not see the cars that come, then the whistle of the turbine should be emphasized.
the rest is ok

First impression is hard to give, the car creates a slideshow on my pc. It is substantially heavier to run than anything i have ever seen for Rfactor.
I dont know what causes it, but i cannot drive properly with it.
Tried other mods again, they worked fine. Reboot of the pc didnt work.
