So just won the championship in career mode but nowhere has the number 1 been made available to me. i specifically remember selecting the option at the start of career so I would claim the number 1 if I did win the WDC. has anyone else had the same problem?

Done it finally 🙂 Changed to number 2 in my profile and it asked me again if I want to claim number 1 in career and this seems to have jogged it and my showroom car is now showing 1 instead.

Thanks, I will check this again this weekend. Was just unpleasantly surprised to find 1 wasn’t available on my profile after I had won the championship.

Has anyone else seen the option in career mode to use number 1 and where does it come up?

I definitely remember clicking yes as I feel quite strongly about it being used in motorsport. I also enabled driver transfers and now in season 3 there has still been none apart from domino effect replacements on seats I have left

Excellent. How can this be reported?

No I’ve finished my season and now at the start of the new season I still have my own number. there doesn’t seem to be anywhere to change it in career mode and if I try on my driver profile it’s not available

Started career with Red Bull and noticed I'm 1.5 secs slower on track than I am on Grand Prix mode. Somewhat frustrating but what's more frustrating is i cannot pass the R&D task to lap within a certain time using my brakes for 12% of the lap, it's impossible without going too slow.  Such a dumb task, is this going to be detrimental to my career mode now? 

Wouldn't be surprised to see Ostberg rock up at Hyundai sharing the 3rd seat with Sordo

word is Paddon and Breen will both be joining M-Sport now. Good if true although surprised Ostberg isn't joining considering he brings some £££ as well as experience and speed

its a shame Ypres cannot be on there! Imagine the crowd for Neuville!

Not been confirmed yet but think Lappi to Citroen deal has already been done.

think most likely line up now is: Toyota - Tanak, JML, Meeke Hyundai - Neuville, Mikklesen, Sordo/Padden Citroen - Ogier, Lappi, Breen M-Sport - Sunninen, Evans and probably Ostberg

Don't blame him, if Ford couldn't commit properly now then they never will in the WRC again. Just a shame M-Sport cannot find another manufacturer to work with who are more serious about Rallying.

FIA are already on board with game via WRX...but perhaps they will be with WRC too ?

Agree these are all the things im hoping for too, just don’t want the actual driving physics to change much as they say if ain’t broke.......

I actually hope they don’t change too much from dirt rally, yes at least 2 more locations are a must and some more cars too but the first game got so much right in so many ways. it really had something special about it that I fear may be lost if they change too much. But I can still remember how great Colin McRae Rally 2.0 was after the first version so I have faith ?

I think it’s a safe bet it includes the WRC license personally 

Still no news....at least it means next week there will definitely be an announcement 

Realistically I would think the quickest DLC locations to implement would be Finland, Germany, Monte and Greece - would happily pay to have these added to D4

Am I right in thinking that my stage doesn't include the option for surroundings I.e forests, mountains, hills etc ? 

Am I right in thinking the actual stages from Germany, monte, Finland and Greece from dirt rally cannot be transferred to dirt 4 as they are real life stages and now require licensing? it would be great if the locations could still be added so we could then use stage creator on them. orherwise agree location DLC's are a must, maybe some left field choices like ypres, valais, Manx, African safari - these could really set it apart from the other rally titles 

I'm hoping to create enough Tarmac stages to create an offline all tarmac custom championship, is this possible? Guess the only thing is locations will all look quite samey 

The AI pace in the wet is so ridiculous I've now decided that if rain is forecast I'll exit to the menu so I can drop the difficulty down a notch so it's realistic again and put it back when it's dry

It's really quite frustrating now driving for a top team where your car is over a second slower than your teammate, by the time I get all the upgrades the season will be over!
