    Just loaded it up and they are no where to be seen , not even in a new career. Pretty disappointing tbh @BarryBL

    Oh man, that's really disappointing. Was looking forward to signing Ticktum in MyTeam and have a teammate rivalry with him. Thought that was going to be a thing since the game's release.

    Yep, on my Driver Career, Bottas is winning so much and getting pole in pretty much every race that I genuinely considered posting a topic in here a few days ago with the concern that his and Hamilton's code had been accidentally mixed up. It really feels that way.

    It was implemented in 2017 after fixing a bug with the safety car. It's certainly not impossible and it's a huge shame that they don't want to put the work in to have it working in 2020.

    It's a race-ruining issue if you're lower down, catching the guy in front. Safety car, pit for strategic reasons and get you lapped by the leader but the guy in front doesn't. He then gets to go all the way round to the back of the queue. Green light and it's blue flag after blue flag until the guy you were chasing laps you aswell. Race over.

    It's been mentioned in the suggestions forum and the response from the devs is "it's been discussed" and nothing more.

    Thinking aloud, one idea would be instead of having a scripted performance... thing, there is instead a system that calculates performance from the AI performance files, and that data is then applied to whatever upgrades each team has. This could be done while loading a weekend. Would probably only take 10 seconds maximum to process.

    Just remember when using fast forward or the return to garage button in pause menu that the AI will qualify faster then they would have done otherwise as the game is guessing there time as opposed to then actually setting a time. I only fast forward when AI are on out laps or in laps, if any on fast lap I dont fast forward (you can tell this form one of the screens when you are on pits).

    See, this is why I do one-shot. It's so simple that way, plus I've created headcanon that the FIA switched to One-Shot after all the shenanigans at Monza last year. :classic_biggrin:

    Same problem in my team, In my case the problem only exists when I load the save game which I made before patch 1.12 came out.

    Since then every race I drove in My team there are no blue flags or corner cutting rules.

    However when I start a  new career or drive a single grand prix everything is fine.

    Other people only having the problem with a mid race saved game before patch 1.12 came out?

     

     

     

    No, my save was made after 1.12 came out.

    Edit: Never mind, I misread.

    I'd like to do Short or Full, but I do One Shot because it's the only one where you know it's taking all its results from on-track performance, as opposed to Accelerated Time scripted performances via crashing out, dropping out in Q1, fast forward, etc. There was also an issue in 2019 where the scripted performance didn't tally with R&D improvements. No idea if it's still the case with 2020 but I don't want to take any chances.

    Plus it's a time saver. :classic_biggrin:

    It needs to be remembered that, despite having wings, they have nowhere near the sort of downforce that the F1 cars have. It's like driving F1 cars from the 1960s, very slidey and oversteery, I'm assuming to teach those coming up through F2 about advanced car control. Stick at it, drop the difficulty a few notches and ease yourself into it.

    2020 Revised Calendar Schedule -

    As developer and publisher of F1® 2020, the official videogame of FIA Formula One World Championship™, Codemasters has accurately recreated the original 2020 season, which was scheduled to start on 15 March. Due to time needed to re-create the circuits in-game, it is not possible to include any of the new circuits added to the revised 2020 season.

    Hi,

    Not really a bug as such something to fix/update for the next patch.

    The performance patch doesn't seem to have updated the auto-generated grid when you don't do quali in the Grand Prix mode. Pre-patch I noticed it more with the Haas cars being way too high up the grid in every race I jumped into, quickly being swamped and dropping down. Now it happens with the Ferrari cars. They qualify in 2nd-5th every race but fall down the pecking order depending on the track.

     

    I've noticed this myself in Driver Career. Accelerated time, dropping out in Q1 and having the game make up the final grid, or getting a DNF and the race results auto-generate - there's a disparity vs on-track performance with the teams that have been downgraded. Cars that should be slow suddenly get a boost when these events occur.

    Oops......maybe I should have stated in my initial post that I'm using a controller and not a wheel/pedal set up. I'm hoping to get a wheel/pedal at some point in the future though.

    I use a controller too. I have a wheel setup but I don't have the room or the energy to use it at the moment. It's nice to just lounge in a chair and get on with the game. :classic_happy:

    Would not buy an extra tracks DLC.

    Not that they are going to release them anyway, but if they did it would have to be for free.

    We have already paid for F1 2020, and shouldnt be paying extra money to have the tracks they're actually racing at this year in game. 

    I meant for 2021 if they were going back to the original calendar.

    Since starting a fresh Driver Career save with the performance patch, I've had identical results - Leclerc & Vettel consistently getting 4ths and 5ths. 😕

    Well hush my mouth, that aged well didn't it? :classic_laugh:

    Vettel still needs a big downgrade though, as does Albon. And Racing Point has nowhere near their real life pace, remember they're known as the Pink Mercedes for a reason. :classic_wink:

    In my case, I'm lucky enough to be on PC and I'm attempting to mod around this, although the 'accelerated pace' thing may be an issue. One way to get around this is to use One Shot Qualifying, but it's not quite the same is it?

    Edit: Plus it's impossible to mod AI performance. I do wish this game was as accessible as the old ones.

    Remember the Classic DLC for F1 2013? A bunch of classic tracks to mess around on. If - IF - they have the ability, time and money to do this, that would be cool. Seeing as we can now pick and choose which races to include in a career calendar, this could be expanded upon. Although licencing does currently limit this to 'this year's calendar in that order', so probably not.

    A '2020 DLC' with this year's bonus circuits. I'd buy it.

    Patch this patch please... Ferrari's car is definitely not the 4th fastest.. They battle with Alpha Tauris and Alfa Romeo (SPA, Monza and Mugello) and can't cope with McLaren, Renault and RP.. So this one needs a new patch..

    This.    This right here needs further attention no doubt. 

    Started a new career after the updates.

    Through 3 races here are the Ferrari driver's results:

    Leclerc - 4th, 5th, 4th.

    Vettel - 6th, 4th, 5th

    Further more I finished ahead of both Ferarri drivers in my McLaren in all 3 events.  So without me outperforming my car they'd have likely been one position higher each race.  Come on guys....  That's not a performance update in the slightest.   Especially when Ferrari is rated ahead of McLaren & Renault, teams which routinely out perform them every weekend.

    Have to agree with all of this.

    Since starting a fresh Driver Career save with the performance patch, I've had identical results - Leclerc & Vettel consistently getting 4ths and 5ths. Worse still, after only 4 races, they have the top engine once more, faster than Mercedes. At that point they started getting poles and podiums. Their laptimes are constantly within 0.5secs of Hamilton. I expected Ferrari to be pants, Leclerc around 6th, Vettel around 12th for two thirds of the season before they were able to work their way back up. Their resurgence has happened waaayyyy too quickly and it feels like the downgrade has been done half-heartedly. A big shame if this was intentional.

    Vettel himself also needs a big downgrade, the fact he said himself today he can't get anywhere near Leclerc's pace - whether that's due to skill or a drop in morale because Ferrari are releasing him, the fact is the game is trying hard to be viewed as a simulator and the first step to doing that is being accurate with driver and team representation. 

    On the flipside, Racing Point are doing relatively poorly, barely scraping the top 10. It's all upside down.

    For the record, I'm not anti-Ferrari (Leclerc is one of my favourite drivers and I love Ferrari's history). I just like accuracy, especially when I've held off from playing for over a month on the promise that an accurate update was coming. 😕

    People have forgotten over the years that the strict ruleset wasn't really meant to be realistic, it was meant to be strict (and thus not realistic as the stewards aren't strict for people extending track limits). It was introduced in one of the F1 2015 updates, and basically considered a "hardcore mode" back then. Somehow over the years people have started to think strict is somehow realistic and partly because of this, the community demanded it to be used in the new ranked mode that was introduced to the game couple of years back... If we would've just told them to modify the normal setting, we wouldn't be having this conversation!

    My suggestion is still to send feedback that the normal corner cutting setting is too lenient 🙂 

    I didn't actually know this, I thought - as you said - that Strict was "Realistic mode". Good excuse for me to turn it back down :classic_biggrin: (I have had a couple of over-the-top penalties since turning it up).
