    Happens to me as well. After the 1st season ist was super nice. RAI and VET retired, many changes in the field. After second season only GRO retired and the only thing that happens is that DeVries comes in to replace him. Thats it. Will simulate some time but it seems no Driver will retire after S3 and I bet there will be no transfers at all from now on.

    I just recently got the T3PA (T300 RS GT) and the throttle is giving me a headache, I think I will consider your approach. I'm spinning on exits like never before.

    What should help also is to set the Throttle Linearity to a higher value. Mine is as high as 50. (same with the Brake).

    I use the T3pa as well and was thinking to upgrade but since I switched the clutch-spring with the throttle-spring I am really happy with the set again. Throttle application is now 10 times better and I am accustomed to the break so I think the T-LCM wouldnt be such a big step.

    I would add things like more realistic contracts (1 to 3 years maybe instead of negotiations every 6 month), driver age as a stat, driver potential (so that not every driver maxes out after 5 years), pre season testing to develop the car and many more. This mode has so much potential, I really hope they invest some more time in it.

     

    Oh and I really wish you could watch sessions you are not part of (any more) as a spectator. Like Q2/Q3 when in a bottom team or the rest of a race after crashing out.

    btw: With some testing I found a way to make things a bit more... lets say... how I like it.

    When I came to the end of a season I backed up the savegame and then proceeded with the transfers. There was a transfer that I didnt like once again (Leclerc to Williams I think).

    What I did was: Going back to the old save, loading the game and before I made my driver an offer I made a bid for Leclerc and just let Ferrari beat me. It seems that this stops the driver from changing team because after I proceeded Leclerc was still at Ferrari and Williams had enlisted another driver.

    AI starts on softs nearly every time, even if they qualified outside the Top10. That leads to them making 2 Stops because they could not finish on medium or hard.

    There is no variation. If they start on softs everyone is pitting in the same two laps, no undercuts, no overcuts etc. Exeption beeing the Top10 starters that have to come in 2 Laps earlier because of the used tyres. That leads to them falling back in the field and losing a ton of time :classic_angry:

    Mercedes won every races in my first myteam season.:classic_biggrin:

    lol, in my save Merc won like 6 out of the first 7 and then Ferrari won 5 in a row with Vettel getting 4 of them. But they started so bad that HAM still has a 49 Points lead over him. It promises to get really interesting till the end. And Vettel will retire after the season so its his last shot.

    MyTeam Economy really needs some tweaks. I "simulated" 2 seasons in myteam now, meaning I did not drive a single session, just simulating practice, skipping quali, simulating race and back to HQ.

    My Car is 4th best in development, I have nearly everything upgraded to the second stage in facilities and hired Russel for season 3. If that continues, by season 4 or 5 i will max out with the best car and didnt turn a wheel once. That shows to me that this mode is way to superficial and easy.

     

    btw: I wish there was a "Simulate Weekend" button. This would make that kind of test way faster :)

    Ragarding Point 2:

     I just Simulated my first season forward until the end of S1 and when I saw the driver Transfers I was happy at first since Sainz moved to Ferrari but then I looked at the rest of the grid and its just mayhem... Merc and Renault are the only unchanged teams. VET and RAI retired and what followed must be the silliest of silly seasons.... 

     

    My Season 2 Lineup:

    Latifi an Stroll at AlfaRomeo

    Giovinazzi and Magnussen at AlphaTauri

    Norris and Russel at RacingPoint

    Leclerc and Sainz at Ferrari

    Albon and Grosjean at Haas

    Matsushita nd Kvyat at McLaren

    Hamiltom and Bottas at Merc

    Gasly and Perez at RedBull

    Ricciardo and Ocon at Renault

    De Vries and Verstappen at Williams

    Aitken and Me at My Team

    hm... probably a super stupid qustion but how do I know the car is to low. There is no telemetry that says if i bottomed out and when I lose the car on a kerb how do I feel the difference between this and lets say a loss of grip on the kerbs slippier surface. Is there a distinct sound I just dont hear?

    Watched the trailer and some of the analysis vids on YT and there ist only one word for me that describes my mood: Underwhelmed. This looks as I feared. Shallow and unfinished. Granted, the driver ratings could not be final and there could be more depth to it than the trailer shows but at first glance this mode will need 1 or 2 more years of development to be a real manager-mode. Its the same thing that happend with F2 last year when we only got the 2018 season and career-mode consisted of three short szenarios. So, I think I will skip this game again until its in winter sale or something for 20€.

    GGs Grand Prix 4 was much more a simulation than F1 2019 or any other CM-game will ever be. Its an arcade F1 commercial, constrained by its compatibility with consoles. Looks shiny but has the depth of a puddle. So dont get your hopes up to ever see something like this.
