Fuel consumption after november update

Has anybody noticed too that the fuel consumption is much more realistic since the november content update?

Is it? I haven’t noticed as I’ve been doing the short-stint career races and therefore pay no mind to the fuel gauge, but if this is the case, the few remaining endurance races I have left will be that much more enjoyable.

Not sure if it was meant, as the patch notes they provided only says this:

“· Fixed an issue where electric cars did not burn battery with Fuel/Tire Wear Difficulty set to “simulation””

So it seems as though they only meant to have the electric car’s battery drained as a normal car would have its fuel drained, nothing else

I drove 17 laps without pitting in the Gallardo race car at Spa and I’m sure that I could not do that before.

But the nismo lm gtr car has unbelievable high fuel consumption. Le mans 3 laps…it’s a joke
But for some other cars I noticed too that they can now do longer stints

Confirming that fact. My GT-R LM Nismo ran out of fuel on on lap 4 in middle of Mulsanne straight. Based on 2015 LeMans, this car should be able to complete 8 laps.

Did the longest Endurance races after the November update and my lap counts were in line with what was previously posted, so no real change there.

I tried a little test with the Rebellion (because that car always binged on fuel) last night at Le Mans. First I used biggest restrictor plate (class P996) with a low downforce setting and I was getting 5.3 fuel used per lap. Then I went down to the slower plate (P981) and was down to 4.8 fuel use per lap.

I run in a league that has races that are borderline on requiring drivers to pit for fuel. If you drive in fuel conservation mode you can make it. If you drive all out you have to pit. The race last night was just like every other race we have, most pitted but a couple stretched it and made it.

Doesn’t seem so to me.

However, keep in mind that the handling model has received some slight adjustements for some cars. This, I believe, may somehow result in slightly reduced fuel consumption through a reduced need to rev the engine up.
