News DiRT Rally PC update includes telemetry statistics

It seems like Codemasters haven't forgotten about the PC DiRT Rally players in light of the recent console release.

Indeed a new PC update (version 1.1) has been made available recently which includes a new telemetry tool known as CREST. This is an acronym of Codemasters RaceNet Evaluation and Statistics (also available for console players through the official website) and it enables players to compare their ghost times to the fastest ghosts on the leaderboards.

The comparison actually covers a range of information including sector times, racing line, braking, acceleration, speed and which gear is currently selected. You can view your ghost from a top-down viewpoint and even slow down time so you can really study your lines and performance if you so wish.

Furthermore you can filter players by assists used to obtain more accurate comparisons, and if that wasn't enough you can even access your data via mobile devices according to Codemasters. You can view the full version 1.1 changelog below.
