A recording of the OP driving in the iRacing simulator in the Dallara F3 at Interlagos. The clip opens with them driving down the start-finish straight at high speed closely trailing another car and emerging from their slipstream.

They continue to race closely down the straight to T4 but OP closes the door and gets ahead to close the overtake.
