Toyfel has made a rather funny video, comparing rFactor online races on public servers to those held in a league environment.
Since I rarely race online, I have no idea if public races are really this chaotic. The idea behind the video is creative and the result is pretty funny though, making it very much worth to be checked out.

Lol true.
If I ever go to public servers I choose ones with tougher rules assists and driving view. It usually scares the ‘fast’n'furous’ gamers away.

All true. :D I have never tried a public online Formula One race that hasn’t ended up in total mayhem.
When I race online, I race on the http://www.bockbierbude.de servers. Good, clean, and pretty competitive racing. Plus, it has the “Automatic Download Script”, which provides you with all the different mods and tracks you need – very neat! Go try it out :D

That’s why a decent AI is crucial for the simulations.
If you have no time to participate in a league, the AI is your only option.

maybe league servers should allow normal people but just ban the wreckers for all time…
I always play public because all league servers have passwords °_°

I agree that AI is needed, some of us aren’t talented enough to join a league. I’d rather race against AI than risk making anyone mad because I crashed into them. And I can always make the AI difficulty easier to make sure I win.
