Will you also do B version for the renault with the higher rear spoiler? the one used at the bahrain gp?
Sebb
You can send it through the feedback channel on Discord. From what you described, it definitely sounds like a CSP configuration issue.
Sebb
Theyβre coming in future updates hopefully v2.0. The whole 2006 season was upgraded to match the R26βs level of detail, which wasnβt an easy task, but itβll be worth the wait.
