Choosing mclaren as a first team was a massive mistake for me, how am I suppose to get 5th with a melon as a car

[AmrK]

I'm in my third season with Mclaren. I simulate all practice sessions and still have 90%+ setup-confidence every race. I have Lando and Perez in my team, Perez was expensive as hell but it's worth it. I had Zhou and he crashed almost every session and couldn't qualify into Q3 even once. Now both of my drivers are in top 5 all the time and I'm leading the constructors for the first time, mid season 3.

My top tip- play on 1.25 speed! Thanks for the upload, very useful

[jaysysumakaRatMaster]

If there’s any session I’d skip it’s only the 1st practice session. From there on I totally agree with running each practice session… totally agree with the driver aggression. No need to run balls out in practice.

I just run a short fast run at the end of P3.

I went with Aston Martin and drooped daddy's cash for Mick . Uncle Sebs got your back kiddo

[anggaihza]

Had my hand into the game for a few hours and I could say a tip for new players is don't play as Williams, it's depressing

[mariop]

I use the pause button and the 16x in between changes, never do automatic sessions, rather 16x. Made a second save (1st save Williams, but it's hard) to learn the game with a rich team (Mercedes) fired the drivers and hired 2 rookies Piastri and Doohan. I had to give up the tutorial during the first race, because it was taking strange strategy decisions, I changed tires and it was trying to change tyres again.... and wanted me to stop and change tires in the end of the final lap???? It just locked the game and demanded the pit stop, I had to turn tutorial off to end the race.

Tip 1: nothing you do actually makes a difference.
Tip 2: ask for a refund.

[daft]

Very informative, thanks! Really looking forward to playing in a few hours. Would you say there are too few DNF's as it stands? Not a huge issue for me personally, just curious.

[Skylineben]

Thanks m8, I’m on day 2… I learned a lot and you taught me more again! Im now ready to start again 😃

[robburley]

first thing you need to do for Williams is sign Oscar Pistorius, go to scout drivers and offer him 450K with 45K signing bonus for Goatifi

“So. By. Choosing. Your. Tyre. “BRO TALK NORMALLY

[dair]

What I've learned

Safety car system doesn't work correctly

Tyre model doesn't work as expected - I was able to run relatively competitive times using Inters on a dry track

AI Intelligence, they will sometimes just sit behind other cars. They'll even park behind stranded cars.

UI isn't optimised for wide-screen monitors

Fuel delta doesn't work correctly

Hot tyres doesn't appear to result in slower lap times

Cars driving through pit walls.

I had really high hopes for this game... Been following it since it's announcement. Very disappointed. Real shame it doesn't function as well as it looks.

[bilboswaggings]

You can make the car setup, then simulate each practice session after again making the setup yourself
I have gotten plenty of 90+ Setups

[udtojanpestillos]

Every 2 months the CFD hours and Wind tunnel hours get reset?

[ashleygore]

Great video Stuffey, can’t wait to get cracking this afternoon!

[FunnyDude]

Practice sessions are not impactful at all. The most you get out of not simulating and wasting 30 minutes yourself of messing with sliders is 1 maybe 2 more attribute boosts to your stats which has literally no impact. It’s just a waste of time.

[ryanbyrnes]

Been playing for a few days now your tips are all good if u move all the sliders far right you get massive gains per part development and chassis and suspension take the least time to develop and about the same so I usually do those together and watch the wear on your power train during the season you don’t want to wait till your down to 1 motor or gearbox to start buying spares since grid penalties stack and two in 1 race is really tough to overcome the -12 start and crashes damage the power train as well and u can edit the race objectives to make more achievable or mor difficult but better monetary rewards

[doomedlegion]

I started a Alfa Romero career and sacked zho for gasly and in just 5 races and a couple upgrades later I’m fighting for the constructors championship. After two lucky 1, 2 finishes

[alexwallace]

I’ve chosen Haas and mick can’t get his car out of Q1 and it’s very annoying
