Hi folks, after the half of the season I think that the weather enging is really poor. Each second race is with rain. And I had rain in every session in Spain. Four days of rain in Barcelona in May? This is ridiculous.

Are you playing a championship or career? I've just completed my second season in career and found that throughout the first year I had many wet weekends, basically about 50% would have rain at some point. My second season was much more realistic and with only about a third having any session disrupted by rain. Seems pretty random. Have to agree that 4 days of rain in Barca is terrible.

Well is Austin in October typically meant to have 3 days of persistent rain (no such thing as a 4 day on-track weekend in f1)? No, but what happened in 2015? Exactly. Unless you are in a desert, weather is unpredictable, no matter where you are.

@ Leeboi85
I am playing a career. I hope my second season will be as yours. Thanks

Theoretically you could have rain in every season for the full 10 seasons. You could also have no rain at all for 10 seasons. There is a certain percentage set for rain. So, in some careers it can happen that you have more rain than you normally would. Others will experience the opposite.

I also saw this multiple times in the casino. Chance for red is 49.9%. Same goes for black. And there's 0.2% chance for green. I saw it happen that black was hit more than 30 times. Than you might think the chance it will be red will rise. Nope, still 49.9%. Even after 184848849930303 times black in a row.

for sure, in a casino there is a 49,9% chance for black :-). When I think of the last 10 seasons in real f1 there might be a chance for rain of about 10%, maybe someone can varify that. So it does not make sense to have rain in every round.
