Poor grip and unpredictable body dynamics when driving in the rain. Understeer is a common problem. The key is to find the optimal driving line.

Firstly, it is vital to identify the waterlogged points of the track and the degree of waterlogging in order to plan the line of travel. If you are sliding into a position that is not conducive to picking up speed, you need to analyze the track in depth.

At the same time, it is important to identify slippery areas that are not easily visible.

Wet spots should be avoided as much as possible in rainy weather to avoid a momentary loss of tire grip, leading to loss of control. By trying to understand the effect of standing water on grip, you usually choose to go around.

Controlling the gas pedal and brakes becomes complicated when driving in the rain. When braking, the first kick needs to be strong, and finding the point where it doesn't hold is even more difficult, as each corner has different limits.

Throttle control needs to be precise. Entering a corner too quickly can lead to understeer, and too much throttle can cause rear wheel spin and loss of control.

Wet sections may require constant throttle pressure to maintain a sliding position, avoid braking or letting off the throttle to avoid losing time.

There are two strategies for driving in the rain: one is to use the gas pedal to create a drift and fast cornering, but the exit throttle point will be delayed; the other is to try to avoid rear wheel slippage and ensure smooth acceleration after cornering. Which method to choose depends on the road conditions, and drivers who are skillful in drifting usually have better results.

When driving in the rain, practicing with dry tires improves your drifting skills and allows your body to adapt to the dynamics of driving in the rain. Rain tires, on the other hand, significantly improve stability when driving in the rain. When controlling the steering wheel, move accurately and quickly to avoid understeer. Since the front wheels have weak grip in the rain, pay attention to throttle control when steering to avoid oversteer. Adjust the steering wheel amplitude and speed as needed to ensure smooth cornering. As seen in the video, the car may be difficult to turn even with violent maneuvers, making gentle steering even less feasible. If the car is found to be weakly responsive, the steering wheel should be quickly righted and redirected to prevent oversteer.

TIPS:

1. The racing line should be narrowed to accommodate the reduced corner limits and reduce the risk of understeer.
2. Pay attention to the dry areas of the track, such as the edges and shoulders, as these special points can improve lap times and enhance performance.
3. When the rain subsides and the track dries out, actively drive through the water to cool the rain tires.
4. When the rear wheel is spinning out of control, correct the steering wheel and add small amounts of gas to avoid stalling.
5. Avoid using tinted lenses or film to prevent fogging and affecting your vision.
6. In case of heavy rainstorm, it is recommended to stop practicing.
