A couple issues I have with the AI, not really bugs per se.

Recommended Posts

1. I think it’s strange how the AI only oversteer in the dry. I would’ve thought the amount of mistakes would increase ten-fold in the wet in comparison to the dry.

2. The AI don’t attempt to pass one another often enough. This is a real issue in my races, especially in tracks with shorter DRS zones. Even in tracks like China, Bahrain and even Mexico create these overtaking issues. Whether its down to the extremely nerfed slipstream or the increased dirty air, the AI still get stuck in DRS trains, and sometimes cars that are over a second quicker won’t be able to pass another car if that car has even decent straight line speed. 

3. While the AI letting you through in Quali and race has been vastly improved, there is an issue in the races where they will let you lap them, and the next corner they will divebomb you. This happens when they let you by, and you’re on the outside and they’re on the inside. Even from 20 meters back they will still divebomb you. It’s really frustrating and I feel it wouldn’t be such a difficult fix. I wish they had this same energy when they’re actually fighting for position.

 

I also have a suggestion. Just allow us to choose a few settings:

Slipstream Strength: None, Low (the current level), Normal (Around last year’s level), realistic (speed increase is ridiculous when 50ft or closer behind another car), and very high (reserved for aarava videos)

Dirty Air Strength: None, Low (like now), Normal, Realistic.

I know why you nerfed slipstream, it was to stop the slipstream trains in high level situations such as league racing and F1 Esports, but I feel like these options would be a better fit to the wider audience, and makes the career mode experience better too.

I have also a hard time to overtake the AI in front of me. But, i love it so much this year. This is Racing how it should be. When it would too much of slipstream effect i would be able to overtake the AI easily. I don't like that. So, Codemasters made it perfect this year.

In Australia, i was over 30 laps behind my teammate and i found no way to overtake him. This is realistic ! Awesome !

This 100%, I took the attached on Bahrain - happened in Australia as well just a DRS train and even the Merc/Ferraris coldn't overtake. Raikonnen just sat at the front for 20 laps, you can see the lead the front 2 have as  well

What annoys me the most is when you're on an in-lap the AI just freeze along side you and let you past, but as soon as you put your foot down they do the same. They kind of mimic your actions. Which is stupid.
