The percentage is how much of a boost to your acclaim you get every race. It is not your acclaim level. The boost you receive is transferred to team acclaim, so yes, the 22% bonus you get and the 24% that KMag gets adds up to giving the team a 46% boost to their team acclaim. Ultimately this means that your team receives 46% more acclaim than normal. Each time anyone you move up an acclaim level the percentage bonus will increase too.

Transfer of pilots in my team with little movement

Mmm I think because he did 40 laps on a set of soft tyres. And people couldn’t even do that on the mediums. I think it’s widely thought he pulled of something of a miracle to do that and scored well deserved points as a result. Maybe that was enough for people to vote. He still wouldnt have been my choice though tbh. -

Im joking, I’m actually a big Seb fan, rated him from his first race standing in for Kubica in USA and scoring points for BWM. I’m well aware of his successes, though they all came while he was in the best car on the grid it must be said, just like Hamilton right now.... Its hard seeing him in the doldrums but you have to admit, he’s been off his game for a while now... -
Mmmmm I disagree. I’m 1.07 and had a VSC and a SC in my last race in Baku. 95 difficulty simulation damage, 100% race distance.

Because they’re still better than Sebastian Vettel? 🤣 -
[Real F1] FIA to eliminate high Fuel Mixes and Overtake features.

Also turning engine modes down in the race is an easy way to save fuel for the drivers. Using one single engine mode for quali and race and effectively removing this tactic seems a bit odd to me. -
I’m not talking about just having the formation lap off, I’m talking about having it switched on, but then skipping it and not completing it. I always turn Formation lap on, as I think it adds to the experience but when It comes to it, i can’t really be bothered and want to get into the race, so I would just skip them rather than complete them. Every time I did, my tyres were always blue for the race start. So I started making sure I did the formation laps, and now my tire temps Are set for the race start at the temp they are when I finish the formation lap. Just speaking from my own personal experiences.
-
I know if you skip the formation lap with it turned on you start on cold tyres.
-
I was thinking the same. Or a replacement for Albon at Red Bull
-
Maybe the other players havnt updated their version yet? Although that seems crazy as to why they wouldn’t.

If you make Q3, you are restricted to the start on the tires you used to set your fastest lap in Q2, unless the weather is different between qualifying and race. In other words if it’s wet in quali, but the race is dry, you free to choose what tyre to start on. if you fail to make Q3, the set of tires that was reserved for Q3 still become available for you to use for the race, along with all your other tyres used for qualifying. If you are a front running car and will get into Q3 it is a good idea to minimise the use of your tyres. I tend to use just one set for q1 (I aim for just one flying lap, or put enough fuel so I can go for two without pitting, meaning less in/out laps. Il generally set my first run in q2 on this set of tires to set a banker lap, then put on a new set and be very gentle on my in and out lap again minimising the wear if I have to start on this tire. This generally means il have a couple of brand new sets for the race. edit: sorry, just seen you are talking about short quali so basically what I’ve said is useless to you. Sorry! Should learn to read properly!

Didn’t realise it changed? Each time I have started a my team career (started 3 so far) I was able to choose him for my teammate

Cockpit, although I find whenever I use T-cam, I am faster but I don’t enjoy it as much so I put up with being about 0.5 seconds slower give or take a tenth or two and use cockpit. Used to have halo off when using racing line assist, as it was too hard to see the braking point until it was too late, found myself having to drive slightly off line to see it. Now I don’t use the racing line assist I’ve turned the halo back on.
-
I’d say that @marioho scored them himself and the end column is the average of the 2 scores.
-
I used to use 23 as I was born on 23rd sept, but that got taken by Albon last year, so I either use 9 now (month of September) or 83 (year I was born).

You can’t switch drivers when viewing highlights. It would be much better though if highlights included all race events from other cars too.
-
I run 90-95 AI and see mistakes at all difficulties in this bracket.
-
They were the best for car failures and AI mistakes. And the failures could happen to the player too, and there was such a wide variety of them.
-
A Geoff Crammond title by any chance?
-
I use medium TC and I have seen the AI make mistakes and lose the rear end and also seen some crashes where they get totally out of shape, smash into the wall and take 2 or 3 other cars out, so I don’t think the AI run assists like you.

I rarely play online. Yes the racing is better against human opponents (if you find the right ones... which it a challenge in itself) but just the constant waiting For everyone in lobbies and inbetween sessions for just annoys me. I’m too impatient. Haha. Which means the lonnnngggg loading times this year are a shame too.

I usually just use the pre-sets for set ups as I just can’t get my head around setting up the car myself. Preset 4 is generally my go to set up.
