F1 2017 Multiplayer Autopilot mode??

Recommended Posts

Hi....Does anyone know if there is a way of putting your car in autopilot mode when in a online race.  The thing is, i dont get lots of time to race, but when i do enter an online race, there are times for instance when the postman calls or your phone rings etc that i dont want to have to quit the race(especially 25% races or longer) So i was wondering if there is a key you can press that will take over the control of your car for a lap or 2 while you answer a call or answer the door.  It would be so helpful, even if the car would lap a few seconds slower than your race pace just as long as it keeps you in the race so that you can finish.
Any suggestions welcome !!

Doesn't it do that automatically when you open the usual pause menu? I believe it lets the AI, whichever difficulty you set, drive for you.

Could be mistaken though.

You can literally just pause the game and the AI will control your car until you close the pause menu. 

You'll most likely lost time as the default AI difficulty, from memory, is set to 80. That can be changed by the host though.

Oh right...thanks guys....i will try it out.  I dont mind if it laps me slower than the rest, i just want to be able to carry on my race after seeing to my 4 yr old daughter or answering the door etc.  Im not one for wanting to win at all costs, im just happy to finish the race, especially the longer ones. After all, ive only ever won 1 online race, so its not such a big deal to me.

Thanks for your input
