    is Bottas overpowered in your game?

    There's something not quite right with what I've seen in MyTeam. I've currently got third place in the performance charts, with next to no investment in reliability. I can beat Hamilton most weekends but Bottas is on another level. Ferrari on the other hand have nosedived to seventh, the ferrari engine was third best pre-season with renault and mercedes the only two on 100 power, yet Leclerc and Vettel are consistently around 6th-8th.
  2. It's unlikely that the leader will have lapped anyone in a 50% race anyway. If the SC is ever fixed maybe they should make it virtual only on 25% and 50%, a compromise but would people be fussed about the full SC on a shorter distance? It definitely needs to be fixed for 100%, it can even come out for just one lap.
  3. Virtually every race in MyTeam the AI go for more stops regardless of any situation. Singapore for one is an easy one stop and track position is king, it's practically Monaco and half the field did 3 stops. Russia the easiest one stop on the calendar and no AI went for the one stop, a few even did 3 stops and lost their top 10 position as a result. Japan when coming towards the end of the first stint, rain was incoming. The AI made stops for fresh softs then had to go to inters 3 laps later, they should extend. USA, again a doable one stop but two does make sense. Not one AI car did a one stop, several did three including my 2nd driver who has three of the tyre wear upgrades on the chassis. I'm the team boss, why do we get no say in our driver's strategies? On two occasions my 2nd driver has been fighting for minor points and finished outside the points by making an entirely pointless third stop. Also the AI always pit on schedule, they never account for where they are coming out of the pits. They also don't react to being stuck in a train of cars despite the fact that Jeff will pick up on it if you're in one and suggests changing strategy. Cars outside the top 10 shouldn't almost always start on the softs In MyTeam you should set second driver strategy before the race starts It would be nice if the AI didn't rigorously stick to the set strategy *Also in MyTeam it is annoying that the second driver can take 10 place engine penalties several times instead of getting a new engine in one go and starting the the back once.

    All AI drivers start with soft tyres.

    There's some variance on tracks where the soft tyre doesn't last long enough to be effective, you'll see the faster cars run the mediums in Q2. I agree though that on most tracks there is no variance and more often than not it makes no sense.
  5. I've recently picked the game up in a sale, and having not bought last years game either I was really disappointed to see the same problems two years down the line. This is a game breaking bug. I was running P6 at Spain with 10 laps remaining, the safety car was deployed when I was at the penultimate corner so I went in for fresh softs. Hamilton was P5 some 40s ahead of me, Albon & Sainz were being kept at bay 1.5-2s behind me and Ocon was 30s behind me in P9. I'm on well used hards doing a one stop, Albon & Sainz were two stopping on fresher hards & mediums. It's a no brainer to come in as Albon & Sainz have a tyre life advantage over me and I have a pit window to Ocon. It never crossed by mind, being P6, that I would be lapped during the stop so you see where this is going. Only when I caught up Verstappen had lapped Sainz and Albon got to go around and get a lap on us. How? Sainz didn't pit and Verstappen wasn't approaching us on the radar prior to the SC so how does this happen? No penalty to Verstappen. To annoy me further the AI logic here was terrible, Verstappen was one stopping and on old hards, Bottas was two stopping and behind on fresher mediums, Leclerc was third but came behind me under the SC after I'd caught it so they easily had a pit stop on him. There's no way that Red Bull don't bring Max in for fresh tyres, and then Bottas doesn't pit either. And thinking of it there's also no sense in Albon staying out on the slower hards either. I'll just be turning SC off it's well and truly broken.
