How can I make a career mode exciting?

Recommended Posts

So, I have done a few races on F1 2016 in career mode and I am bored. All that happens in the races are that the whole field spreads out so much that there is no overtaking, and there are no crashes or retirements, so no safety cars, and all that happens is that as I am in a slow car, I just get left behind at the back and there is not much racing going on. How can I spice this up at all?

You can use a better car, decrease the difficulty, or wait until your car is upgraded enough so that you are not just in the back and you can get some racing in. As for your other issues, that's not my experience at all. The cars are quite shuffled, so there is a lot of racing going on. I also average about 1 safety car and 3 retirements per 100% race.

Check out this improvement from last year.

If you are coming last then drop down a difficulty level. Also I roll a dice to see what setup I get for the weekend. 1-5 = presets 6=custom

It's 16 races into one season. I was just trying to show the grid shuffles, but this picture will be more clear as to how the chart works.

Please can you tell me how you made this? I'm considering making one for myself. All I want to know is where you did it, what you did and all the smaller details like font, size etc. Thank you!

Just ignore the 10 season career mode and only play 3 or 4 seasons to keep it exiting. 

Ater 3 or 4 seasons restart your career.
