AFTER RACE CELEBRATIONS IN F1 2016 GAME

Recommended Posts

After a race in your career you can chooses whether you want to drive around the track slowly picking up marble and getting the fans clap for yourself as you drive near there stand and when you got around the track you can drive into the pits and to your number as you see either 1,2 or 3 and if you drive a bit too quick you tap your number board, and also you see your driver get out the car and celebrate afterwards you can run to your engineers and celebrate, then when you get to the place behind the podium were you hear the driver talk, you can here yourself chat to the others on the podium, and then maybe have brundle as the guess to ask your driver questions on the race like in real life,

what you guys think

I spoke about it in here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugeNTO74lWI So there's no point repeating myself

Honestly, it sounds like something I’ve never wanted to do in a game, nor would I bother doing it if it was in the game. All I care about is driving F1 cars as fast as they’ll go.

tbh that's all I'd want to do as well the basic podium celebrations aer good enough for me although it would b nice t o add a few national anthems for the winner so that plays during the podium celebrations or something. But still I don't think it needs to  b changed too much.

I think it would be a nice touch if the game doesn't just cut straight off when you cross the line, maybe if it gave you 30 seconds or so after...  Just feels a bit anticlimactic when it's been a close race and it cuts off as soon as you cross the line...

This would be a nice feature, but of course not essential.

What I really could do with is being able to drive alongside the pit wall at the finish line, like the real life drivers so. At the moment the car goes into auto drive and making a hard turn to the opposite side of the track (back to the racing line), looks odd.

Formation lap is more important to me. Warming the tyres, get a feel of the car etc. This however would be a nice feature, as long as it is adjustable to your own favour. But that goes for a lot of options.

This is something I asked for since F1 2010 day one...After about 2 hours of intense driving, being suddenly removed from the car right after crossing the finish line completely breaks the immersion, we could at least have the chance to drive back to the parc fermme or to the 2 1 3 spots for podium finishers.
For sure sure many players don't care about formation and cool down laps, but an option to turn it off or skip it would make everyone happy.

I was thinking bout the whole driving the whole celebration lap and i see a few holes in the plane 1 idiots are gonna try to crash the car into others or into the wall deliberately to see if a damaged car is seen in parc ferme. This i suppose could be fixed by enabling ghosting so you can hit other cars and possible disabling damage or making it so if you crash you appear on the podium and the car is perfectly fine.

2 it would have to have a time limit to some extend specially if online because you'll get the 1 annoying idiot who will just sit there and make everyone wait forever for the race to finish.

3 what if you run out of fuel? Ive had races where ive literally coughed over the line. Perhaps this could be fixed by having to wait for timing to run out then spawning to the podium and ur car either isnt there or is? 

Would absolutely love to do a celebration lap though.

You don't drive nearly fast enough on a formation lap to get any heat into anything. Martin Brundle has often said that drivers only weave around a bit because they'd be bored stiff driving that slowly otherwise :)

I would quite disagree that formation lap does a alot for a f1 car and the aggressive swerving would be enough to warm the tyres slightly not to mention the amount of last minute in car tweaks the driver makes on that formation lap plus a trial start at the beginning of the lap and the prescribed burn out just before getting to their start position
