F1 2021 Beginner Tips and Tricks

Is the F1 2021 game the first Formula 1 title you’ve bought in a while? Or is it even your very first?

Once you’ve played through the superb Braking Point story, you’ve still got vast swathes of the game still to play and things get a little more difficult.

The latest F1 release will guide you along to some extent, but there are plenty of tips and tricks to help you on your way, which is why we’ve created this video.

From tyre wear, to ERS management and slowly weaning off the assists – here's how to get quicker bit by bit as a beginner.

Some of these may be obvious for the seasoned campaigner, but hey, everyone must start somewhere. Let us know in the comments below your advice for those just starting out too.

I honestly thought this video was made by a channel with over a million subscribers, the quality of this video is so good, keep it up

Bought the game 2 days ago and turned off all the helps. Think Ive crashed over 300x now and haven't been able to finish a single GP, however slowly getting beyond 4-5 laps now. But I want it like this, this even more showcased for me how insanely good these guys are doing it in a real car, there simply is no margin for error, any real mistake might cost you the race (or the season). AI behaviour does seem erratic at times, frequently they break at unexpected times or just right on bump me off the tracks.

As a player new to F1 the video game and also the sport, this was super helpful. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[rosemarydaphne]

this helped me so much! i grew up in a strict "no electronics" household and finally got my hands on an xbox with my adult money. for the first time in my 26 years of life i've been able to play video games and i have no idea what i'm doing. thank you for this! i kept failing and now i know what to do so i can learn and start having fun 🥰

[theVersatileGamebox]

Great info, I get the game in a few hours, very excited

[RealAshBartlett]

Thanks for this buddy! Very much appreciated! 👍👍

Really got into sim racing this year and am loving this game. Waiting for my CSL DD to come in anyday now

[jasonevans]

Great tips! I'm moving over from Nascar Heat so this will be my first foray into open wheel/ road courses. Looking forward to the challenge of mastering a new set of skills!

[nilssverdonck]

I play F1 for like over 4 or 5 years now and this is the first F1 title I really struggle with.

[thegrimreaper]

thank you so much i was having so much trouble with the understeer and i did not know how to fix it for many months and turning up the saturation fixed the problem instantly

The F1 2021 game still has 7 practice programs. The difference is that it takes 3 random programs out of the 7 the other 4 you cant do for that weekend. But the next weekend the programs might be different. The race strategy will almost every weekend be a programe because its the most important one for information.

[Sam-bnjk]

Great vid thank you very much, you should do one of these for every f1 game edition that comes out every year!

[RblxFighter]

For some reason I’m watching this although I don’t even have the game

[JohnathanLeeSprite]

To pass all programmes easily, just drive out yourself and complete them. I'm usually left with just the racing line objective and it can be done automatically in the next quick practice.

I just got back into gaming after about 5 years off lol did my first race of F1 2021 on career create a team mode and loving it

Great video, I’m using a Ts-pc with the older F1 wheel. In setup should I be selecting TS-PC or F1 wheel. And it seems like you have to make adjustment in both wheel and pedal profiles. Is there a way to just set everything up and forget it?

[natecondy]

Actually on the game u can’t switch fuel modes due to a regulation change during the 2020 season that took effect at the start of the 2021 season

[simontomlinson]

Fan of F1 so thought I’d give F1 21 a go, got it last week, jumped in the deep end and turned everything off, safe to say that was a disaster 😂😂 can’t even complete a race 😂 gonna take the advice from this video and see how I get on, hopefully be able to complete races and up my AI level, fingers crossed, great vid for beginners 👍

[jakerouchkov]

the best feeling in this game is going for an overtake on a big long straight. I have played many racing games and overtaking in this game is the most satisfying because you can't just overtake someone in
two turns

[silverfoxgaming]

Love the game. Just got my girlfriend into it. It helped her immensely! Great video!
