F1 2018 - Unable to bring enough fuel

Recommended Posts

Racing 100% races on career mode with Williams, I didn't have this problem on Australia or Bahrain, but then comes China. Now before China I had my first purple Race Program finish (the only thing differing between China and prior races) and I managed to qualify P9 (thanks to rainy qualifying) which was the first time I cracked past Q1.

Then, come time for the race, I can only bring 48 laps of fuel, leaving me 7 laps short at the very start. Even going in lean and coasting and lifting all the time there's no way at all I can finish this race, and any restarts/reloads yields the same result. So...guess my career mode is screwed?

Well, your career mode wont be screwed because you picked Williams......
Sorry, bad jokes aside does the game show that the fuel you are putting in is 100kg? Because if it does then thats your allocated fuel and you are gonna be forced to only use that much.

Yea, putting in the full amount of fuel. Surely as shitty as the Williams is, it shouldn't be 7 laps short of fuel for the race, should it? It's literally impossible to finish the race. Especially since I didn't have those problems in Australia or Bahrain.

The theory is that this happens due to your fuel saving during fuel save practice program, at least that’s what I read in another topic. I didn’t complete any of these and didn’t experience this issue so far..

I haven't done the fuel save practice program either. My theory is that the fuel save thing leads to having higher fuel consumption, not to "having way too little fuel in the tank" as it seems to be a different bug.
