3 Consecutive rainy races?

Recommended Posts

So in my last two races, I had rain. Tracks being Hungaroring and Spa. Now I am in the Monza race week, and it shows that the race is going to be rainy. I don't hate rainy races but three races in a row, it's just a bit too much. Is this normal? Or is there something wrong with the game?

It's random.  Nothing wrong with the game IMO, just bad luck and a coincidence. I've never seen 3 in a row myself.  I'm in year 4 of My Team mode and I average maybe 2 rainy races per season.  the odd Qualy session and practice sessiosn too, but that's it.   Also in a career mode, my first rainy race was Austria.  Had rain for France Qualy as well, but that's it.   Just random, nothing wrong.

I had it in China, Vietnam, Netherlands and Spain consecutively which was really fun. Two brand new tracks to try to get used to and racing around in the rain.

Quite a few people have posted to say that rain seems more likely in the game than real life.

That’s right. It’s random but the likeliness of having rain is maybe too high.

A nice addition would be to let the user decide like in GP mode where you can choose your practice, qualifications and race length individually as well as weather (and even time of the day).

Maybe also it would be nice to have a feature that is based on the real weather at this time.

They spent a lot or time and energy on their rain effects and clear to rain dynamic effect, and it does look very very good, so yes you're going to see it as often as the game can get away with.

If I run a championship in GP mode I'll go with whatever the weather is for the next real life weekend, can make it very interesting and ensure I at least get more dry weekends. Would be nice but I doubt they'd do it in game.

I just hope it is because of bad luck. I really don't want to race in rainy conditions four times in a row. Or have 4-5 rainy races in a season.

Being able to select weather might be really good. That's actually a very good idea in my opinion.
