THE HYPERCAR BEGINNER GUIDE - Le Mans Ultimate

QUESTION OF THE DAY: What’s your favourite Hypercar in the 2024 WEC Season?

Absolutely amazing how complex this is. These hypercars are not so easy to drive. And the sim is no exception. I'm honestly blown away by the fact that we have such a complex and realistic simulation of virtual energy and hybrid systems.

I literally searched for this subject earlier today and there were no videos now this pops up, much appreciated

Fantastic video. I’d been trying to work out the relationship between fuel, VRG and battery usage and this has helped a lot.

Loving the LMU content thanks very helpful

Excellent content. Thanks

Top man. I have only done 2 races in the HY both at Le Mans 3:27-28s the cars are fun. This video has helped me with the fundamentals as in my first race I had a dreaded S&G penalty for using 100% VE.

Nice video - thanks dude :)

Hi bro, Im the guy you helped on saturday, finally i understand everything about the hybrid. Cheers👍

Good video, well done.

This is a good video for LMU beginners such as myself. My rule is to take it easy on the few opening laps on cold tyres.

Thanks for the video. Can't wait to play LMU once my new PC shows up. Worth noting that the two groups of hypercars you mentioned also line up with which regulations they were designed with. The Peugeot, Ferrari and Toyota are LMH while the Caddy and Porsche are LMDH.

I finally bought LMU 2 hours ago and you come up with this too help me 🤣❤

Thanks! Needed info to approach LMU serie.

I just shared on the LMU Community (Forum). Cheers DB

For the fuel calculations, i found another way that for me at least seems easier: 1- find the hybrid deployment where it is neutral or recharging just a bit per lap 2- Do some laps on race pace (say i'm comfortable doing 1:35's in monza) 3- After doing a lap i feel i can do consistently, look at the fuel tab on the MFD, divide the fuel used by energy used (Basically calculating my fuel ratio) and set it on the setup page 4- Plan my race on energy use since i figured out my fuel ratio and energy use per lap I find this easier because since i'm using a deployment that is (usually) recharging the battery a bit, it means i'm taking more fuel than i need (given the fact that i'll be draining and charging the battery during the race by turning the deployment up and down just one setting) so i won't have a problem with running out of fuel, the extra fuel should't be enough to weight me down, and in some calculators i can just put 100l max fuel and use the energy used per lap instead of fuel to plan my stints

Hello Alex, congratulations on your live shows. It seems to me that you have a spectacular setup, one of the best I have seen in simracing. I have watched your videos to know how you capture those images, they are spectacular and very realistic, I would really like to know what camera you use to take them. Thanks and congratulations.

Very good video on this subject although I would have liked to see a mention on the LMH/LMDH motor placements and their deployment and Regen level differences, as this does affect their energy management strategies aswell as LMH’s becoming AWD upon Hybrid Activation.

Would love to see some Hypercar setups :D

I dont even have this game, but this is a great video and explanation.
