Can't disagree with that assessment. The users here have been repeatedly lied to, cheated and abandoned by the developer effectively becoming a self help/therapy group 🤣 Merry Christmas!

Thanks. Sorry, I'm still lost but probably best not to give too much detail if something there enabled cheating. I lost my account for a month after the May update, never knew why...

Sorry, still confused, is there something in the workaround sequence that can result in being banned? Thanks!

First post? Employed by or friends and family of the developer? Explain why they continue to release changes just before an event or weekend when no one is around to deal with the aftermath. Repeating this is insane.

Why is that a bannable offence?

Sorry but no excuse for the continued incompetance and extreamly poor support of the users after. They are not learning from past mistakes.

They may be better off...

Here's a workaround https://codemasters.helpshift.com/a/f1-mobile-racing/?p=web&s=hot-topics-known-issues&f=ios-only---the-game-gets-stuck-on-the-load-screen-with-the-formula-1-licensed-product-image-in-the-middle&l=en

Good example of bad bot mode,,,

Most likely a bot. I'm having luck staying behind, they tend to slow and try to crash you in sector 3, less successfully that a hit in the first turn.

I'd like to see a Time Trials option for single mode where you Quali race against a ghost that is driving your best laptime. Carry this a step further and allow racing agains't a friend's best lap time in single mode. Secondly, retain the best 3 lap and sector times for each track to help when training for a track.

@MATT very sorry learn this, the especially knowing you have been one of the games strongest enthusiasts in social media. I'd encourage at CodeMasters to apologize and make things more than right for those banned in error.

Hmmm, my just updated on it's own.. What's the version?

If CM really wants players to do this, add a replay option that saves the most recent race. Tried to upload a Bot punting me off but the streamable site was locking up...

Good question. Multiple players have posted video racing each other where the video is very different on two ends of the same race. Think about it, given connection lag and server response time, it is not plausible to have a realtime game between two human opponents. Even more so in Grid starts. The opponents are AI intended to give the illusion of a real-time player. Clues include not seeing corner cut messages when they run off track and performance outside the bounds of the game physics. Maybe sometimes (quali) you are racing against a real opponents data file. The game is designed to make you think you are playing with a human, so the opponent AI are programmed to occasionally behave badly. Sometimes so bad they are undefeatable, like a Boss in an arcade game. Whoever programmed the bad bots is an evil genius given how well they pi$$ people off 🤣
