I'm not sure however i have noticed that set up's seem to respond differently in cockpit view and T-Cam view and i am competent in both. i.e a responsive set up in cockpit view feels more understeery in T-Cam view. Whenever i load up any set up provided by a quick you tuber who runs in T-Cam it always feels like it it never wants to turn in cockpit view.

Yeah. You can still set your time on time trial. Its eventually appears online whatever time you did.

It will work fine. It just doesn't show you the times in the menu

Urgh could anyone imagine having part of your job as being solely responsible for dealing with a Twitter account for the F1 game. Seeing some of the abusive comments to codemasters from people who probably lack the ability to make a pot noodle would make you want to spend your day banging your head against the desk.

Agree, that probably wasn't their finest hour.

or its simply an indication that the issue hasn't been resolved by the time the next patch was due to be released.

The multiplayer car is the Mercedes. That was confirmed on this forum. If i were to take a guess its probably something unrelated like the track state you are provided which differs when the race starts.

and i share the opinion that its the same people who complain about the same issues year after year and yet still continually buy the game. You will be familiar with the well known saying of doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome. I respectfully point out codemasters f1 games have always had some bugs on every game yet people still buy it despite complaining about it. Which raises the question that perhaps the issues people complain about either aren't actually that bad, or they just like a good moan 😂

Seriously there are more important things to worry about than some cars being slightly in the wrong order on a game. I mean what do you want? Hamilton to practically win most races and every championship for realism purposes? Williams more often than not aren't always trailing around at the back with Alfa miles off the pace, so does that not need to be amended too? How about Vettel spinning more times than the tea cups at your local fairground? What about Albon struggling in quali? There comes a point where you have to say to yourself just chill out and enjoy the game. It can't be fun being angry all the time.

@oner7 So to clarify, when you say your rivals data. Is this solely AI or does it includes Friends data when you race online with them. I race against 5-7 friends so something to track their data would be useful. I'm not particularly fussed about AI data as i already know Grosjean is going to crash.

I've never felt it at Silverstone on the game and as anyone who had been to Silverstone will tell you, it's always windy there so if it was included in the game, it would certainly appear there. Which it doesn't. 😂

TBH, everyone racing with anyone can't be any worse than the current system. If you get too good on ranked multiplayer you have got more chance of the daily shop items changing than being paired with enough people to race 😂

Which would be some of the better apps to try for data purposes then? I've seen names mentioned but do people have any personal recommendations?

T9 assuming its that uphill right hander was always flat out regardless of tyre temps or wear really. When i was trying the sets it was with the setting all the way to the right. I did try a couple with front camber all the way to the right and rear camber around the middle but the car didn't want to turn in as much and felt slower. Although ironically both full race times finished within 0.5 of each other so what do i know.. 😂 Rear toe though is another matter, that eats up your tyres a fair amount.

I ran a load of tests at Spain not long after the game came out mainly because its my strongest track and i am really consistent lap time wise and has a mixture of corners. I ran a 15 lap stint on the softs. 25% race. Ordinarily Big Jeff asks you to pit around lap 6. Among many tests i tried, one was using all tyres inflated to the max. Another the tyres all at the minimum. Deflated tyres caused a lot more wear. So much so that after 15 laps the front left was 85%. However i still able to set a purple sector on 80%+ worn tyres. Tyres inflated to the max had slightly better tyre wear but because the temps went through the roof, the lap times were about a second a lap slower. Now admittedly i dont use any apps to record any data, and it may just be down to the way i drive, but it was just an observation of what i saw at the time. I think i tend to lean in the direction at the moment that controlling tyre temps in game is more important.
