HUD design and MFD shortcut for ERS

[marioho 686]

1. HUD. The dashboard from last year had a better solution for throttle and braking telemetry with the circular dial around the gear indicator. I don't mind the change, but I find the chosen design is harder to read at a quick glance;
2. HUD. The font for deltas on practice and qualy seems too light (typeface weight) for quick readability;
3. HUD. The virtual rear view mirror is great, but it blocks important interface elements on practice programs - like the Turns on Track Acclimatization. Could we get an option to make the virtual rear view switch on only on qualy sessions and races?
4. MFD. I have yet to double check if this is not already in the game, but since the ERS system was reworked could we assign a button to cycle through ERS modes instead of a button to increase it and another to decrease?

About the ERS I would also prefer an option to deactivate ERS deployment as at the moment it runs permanently in 'medium' mode and I can only trigger it to overtake but not switch if off to conserve energy.

Have you tried customising your HUD with the customisation tool to move the practice programme widget or shrink it so it all fits? Can even move the mirror if you need to.

@martbloke at the time of my posting I wasn't aware there were options to move and scale things around on the HUD. That's what I ended up doing. I would still prefer to have (custom or default) for Practice and one for Qualy and Race, as moving up the programme widget kind of took it away from my peripheral vision, but admittedly that wouldn't be important enough to make me post it here as a suggestion. I'm happy with the end result.

Thank you!

Id like the hud and onscreen information to have a curve to it all. So it looks like your looking at it from a helmet. They did this in halo (fps) a while back and it just made the hud/UI look better.
