Yes I can feel other drivers when I race. 12th scale force *Yoda*
But really other drivers are driving their cars and your driving yours ideally
...lol
People can be energy bullies for a lack of better word
So you could be experiencing
internal "pressures "depending on how much you demand of yourself. Sponsors can also demand of you to the point of becoming too nervous to drive
Like I never felt pressured to win when my Dad was at the track and I won most times or did well when he came
But mostly my observations are that people compete off the field as well as on the field with each other and that is what reminds me of pressure
