Price of F1™25 in Poland
Hey, As a Pole, I can assure you that Poland is not richer than Switzerland, Great Britain or Norway. The current price, which is the highest in the world (as you can see in the screenshot above), is simply too high and unacceptable. This is due to the outdated exchange rate, which does not reflect the current economic situation. This is not a matter of temporary fluctuations - these conditions have been in place for many months. Let's look at the table below. Price in USD Exchange Rate (PLN/USD) Converted Price in PLN Current Price in PLN Implied Exchange Rate Difference 59.99 3.89 233.36 269.90 4.50 +36.54 PLN According to the current exchange rate, the price should be 233.36 PLN, meaning the actual price of 269.90 PLN is overpriced by 36.54 PLN. The current price of the game in Poland suggests a rate of PLN 4.50 for USD 1, although the actual rate is PLN 3.89. This means that the price is artificially high. I hope you will hear not only my voice, but also the voice of all players from Poland who would like to buy your game at a fair, not inflated price. Best regards!🙂Twojzdarypjany5 months agoSeasoned Novice531Views18likes14CommentsRain Ruins the race
Hey everyone, I just have to vent about something that’s really making F1 25 frustrating for me—especially in the rain. It feels like only my car is losing massive time compared to the AI. I’m talking about 1 to 2 seconds per lap, and it’s not something that’s happening to everyone—just me! The AI cars seem completely unaffected or at least lose way less time, and it totally ruins the race. Honestly, it doesn’t make sense. I know wet conditions should be tough, but it feels like the game is punishing me specifically, while the AI just carries on like nothing’s changed. I’ve tried different setups, but nothing really helps. It’s not a general issue for all cars—just my car versus the AI. There are definitely some bugs or problems here. I’ve seen similar complaints about the AI not being affected by rain or tire wear in past games, and it’s really disappointing to see it still happening. Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me? I really hope the devs take a look, because right now, wet races just aren’t any fun.toxta34cv3 months agoSeasoned Newcomer989Views17likes13CommentsPSVR2 F1 25
Dear EA team, dear f1 community, Is there any possibility, any chance that you develop a psvr2 compatibility for f1 25? Even a slight possibility? Is this still on the table or there is absolutely no chance? I've seen vr footage of racing games like GT7 and the experience seems absolutely awesome, in terms of immersion and speed sensation. I plan on buying psvr2 but at heart I love f1 so i would love it on an f1 game I saw a lot of comments and requests about a vr support so there is traction for this technology. thanks!3.6KViews14likes32CommentsWill the fanatec SDK be implemented in f125?

Disclaimer : this feedback issue is made from my esport teammate Hello everyone, I’ve been involved in competitive gaming across various consoles from 2008 to 2014. I returned to amateur competition on F1 22 and gradually improved over time. On F1 24, I reached what I believe was my best level so far, and — without trying to sound boastful — I was among one of the best French drivers using a controller (just within France, not internationally). Since the release of F1 25, I’ve continued to approach the game with curiosity and a willingness to learn and experiment on my own. However, I’ve come to a conclusion — one that seems to be shared across various community forums. There is a significant pace gap between controller and wheel users. The game is enjoyable to drive, but there’s a noticeable input delay when changing direction on the controller, and despite trying multiple setups, I haven’t found a proper solution. There’s also a major issue in race conditions: tire degradation. Based on my own testing, I’ve observed a 10 to 20% increase in tire wear per stint compared to wheel users at the same pace. In other words, if I maintain the same lap times and setup as a driver using a wheel, I end up with significantly higher tire wear. The alternative — managing my pace — only results in finishing with less degradation, but much further behind in race time, so it doesn’t resolve the core issue. This situation is becoming increasingly frustrating, and I truly hope the team can revisit these issues, ideally while preserving the overall driving physics, which are excellent. Thank you very much in advance for your attention. Best regards, (Sorry for my english) vMv_Indien588Views11likes4CommentsAbout create your own driver on My Team
I never bought the "F1 Manager" series and I buy the "F1" series every year. My question: why would I like or have more fun fantasizing being a bald character who is “just” a team owner instead of creating my own driver in a driving game? Honestly, I have no desire to play as a F2, F3 driver or a retired driver. There are very few realistic driver options for My Team. If they at least kept Ricciardo, Bottas, Magnussen, Perez and Zhou as options, or the current reserve drivers it would be nicer. I didn't think it was a good idea to restrict the creation of your own driver. Just that. A reflection. No hate.eduardonfire3 months agoSeasoned Rookie1.6KViews11likes21CommentsKonnersport/APX GP in multiplayer lobbies

Hello drivers! We hope you are very excited for the upcoming F1® 25 game! Last week we released our F1® 25 My Team & Driver Career Deep Dive. There are a lot of exciting things happening, and to keep the wheels going we are going to host a Q&A with Gain Cooper (Creative Director)! Here's a little bit from him! "I've been in the industry since about 1998, when my hobby of making levels for the games I was playing with my friends got me a job doing more of the same. Over time my skills and my interests led me more towards game design roles, and I was well-established as a design lead when Codemasters acquired the studio I was working at in 2008. In my early years I worked on a variety of different kinds of racing games such as Rollcage Stage 2 and LEGO Racers 2. After a brief diversion into the field of action games (Cold Winter and 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand) and a cheeky bit of more casual racing fun (Toybox Turbos and F1 Race Stars) I've now transitioned into my "grown up racing" phase, where as Creative Director I've headed up the design efforts on the odd-year F1 titles since F1 2019. Very much looking forwards to seeing players get their hands on F1® 25, and until then I'm happy to answer what questions I can!" Please, post your questions below and we'll collect them during the week for Gavin to answer. Use the Like button at the top of each comment to vote for your favourite questions. Gavin will answer the most upvoted ones! Before starting, here are some quick guidelines: One post, one question. Try to limit yourself to a question per post, as it will be easier to collect them. The focus of this Q&A is on Career Modes. If you have a question about soundtracks or other aspects of the game, it is probable that Gavin doesn't have the answer for you. There are some things he cannot answer, such is the nature of game development. Remember the Closed Beta is under NDA. Please refrain from asking any questions regarding the Closed Beta. You can throw in some fun questions too! Favourite cars, F1 memories, F1 pilots... As always, keep things fun, fair and respectful. We have also prepared a small list of F.A.Q. regarding My Team to avoid redundancy: You said My Team has been fully revamped, what changes have been made? One of the biggest changes is that originally, players acted as both Owners and Drivers of their team. Although there have been some examples of this throughout F1 history, it is not the most common setup in the sport. So, now the mode will be redefined to more accurately represent the sport, and the role of the Owner will be focused on running the team. The new My Team will place more emphasis on managing the fates of both drivers. When race weekend comes around, players can choose either of them to get behind the wheel. The progression system has also been updated. Owners will battle to improve the Fan Rating of their team by achieving objectives and winning key Rivalries against other teams in the championship. Away from the track, players will also run the operations from an all-new Team HQ, an evolving space that will grow in scale, population, activity, and branding as the player builds the team’s reputation and staff. The size of the workforce, development costs, and facilities costs will play a big role, owners need to be careful not to breach the cost cap Research and Development are also now separate branches, giving players the flexibility to choose when they manufacture a new part and how to apply it. For instance, completing only one of a new upgrade package is faster, but then they will need to choose which driver gets the upgrade first, which will affect their motivation and the player’s leverage in contract negotiations. Sponsors matter more than ever, unlocking extra benefits and customisation options. Each sponsor’s brand values will impact the team in terms of expectations and goals they expect you to achieve. Relationships with sponsors will develop over time. As fan rating increases, players will also need to balance their legacy sponsors that have been there from the beginning with more lucrative offers from new brands. How has Driver Career been improved this year? Players can now have more control over driver Icons. They can choose to enable or disable each of the individual driver Icons and, for the first time, whether the AI teams can recruit Icons. The mode will also benefit from the Konnersport and movie content integrated into the game. Players will be able to add an eleventh team to the grid, either Braking Point’s Konnersport, or the APXGP team from F1 (exclusive to the Iconic Edition). Thank you in advance for submitting questions and taking part! We hope to bring you more in the future and look forward to chatting with you all!SolvedEA_Groguet4 months agoCommunity Manager2.2KViews11likes60CommentsF1XL F1 25 Crossplay League - Sundays 9pm

Dear EA Sports, We, the undersigned, are passionate F1 game players and long-time supporters of the EA Sports F1 series. With the release of F1 2025, we are excited to see the inclusion of Konnersport and APXGP in the Two-Player Career mode — a fantastic step forward. However, we strongly believe that the Two-Player Career experience could be elevated even further if the host could select a My Team custom team, and the second player could join as a teammate in that same user-created team. We respectfully ask EA Sports to consider developing this feature, even as a paid DLC — for example, at a price of €10 — as many of us would gladly support such an addition to the game. Support the Future of F1 Co-op Career! If you agree that the My Team feature should be available in Two-Player Career mode, please like and share this petition! The more voices we gather, the more likely EA Sports will notice and consider making this a reality — even as a paid DLC. Let’s show them that the F1 community wants this feature!

Starters, there is a bug which the controller will lose vibrations mid race very often causing you to need to reset the game. Most importantly, the tire wear, i love the idea of high tire wear but this is awful, per stint wheel has 20% less tire wear than controller on average causing esports players to struggle and even quiting the game. Not only controller being nerfed was bad enough but tire wear is a problem There is no fixes. I've tried all types of settings, pro setups, changes everywhere but no result. Controller loses 5sec per stint to wheel I've found due to the end of stint tire drop-off. I'm not flicking and everyone else is having the same problem so it's common and not only a me problem. Please for everyone having an enjoyable whilst also competitive game, Fix these problems please, it's a large problem which hinder our enjoyment of playing this game.9lxqzvkmb42d2 months agoSeasoned Newcomer137Views8likes5CommentsAI tyre temperatures and general degradation.
It's been a repeating trend over the years in EA and Codemasters F1 games that the AI don't seem to suffer the same high tyre temperatures and wear rate as the players car. With the tyre wear being more excessive this year on the players car, this is starting to become more of an issue. The front left tyre at Silverstone is absolutely knackered early on into the first stint, even on the medium. What tends to happen is after about 4 or so laps the AI start to reel you back in at a rapid rate. This has to be tyre temperature and tyre wear differences between them and the player car. This wasn't so much an issue in F123 and 24. But with the player car high tyre degradation in F125, the fun and realism just isn't there when the AI don't suffer half as much. I'm really enjoying the game especially compared to 24. But again as I've always said "attention to detail" always seems to be lacking. In order to have a more realistic experience the AI surely must have similar tyre characteristics as the players car? Either that or reduce the excessive tyre degradation on the players car to match that of the AI. Kind of spoils the immersion for me. I know the AI do have tyre degradation simulated into the game, but just seems a bit out of kilter compared to the players car, especially in this year's game due to the players car having such high wear rates. Even changing the simulation settings to surface only doesn't really fix the issue, it's mainly the tyre wear rate is too high on the players car for me at some tracks. At east have the AI having same issue would be much better. Some changes are definitely required in this area, either reduce the tyre degradation of the players car or increase the AI tyre degradation. The difference between the two currently is way too big of a gap! Please adjust it.IanM2822 months agoSeasoned Ace542Views8likes7CommentsF1 25 with a CONTROLLER need to improved
There is too much understeer with the controller, and you lose a lot in the changes of direction, like the S of Australia or the last two corners. The problem starts in the middle of the corner, it goes into understeer and goes long. I tried many settings, but it does not improve, I hope you can fix everything and allow those who play with a controller to compete with those who play with a steering wheel. _________ [EA_Garrus] Moved from IT to EN F1 25 Boards.

Tyre wear on a controller is way too high
Honestly this issue really does need resolving. It needs it's own post on here. I'm enjoying the handling this year on a pad way more than I did in F124 which was diabolical. However there is a huge issue that people are highlighting all the time and that is the excessively high tyre wear using a pad. Silverstone for example on a pad regardless of setup is a perfect example. On a pad the front left (medium tyre) is completely cooked after 7 laps and the AI start to reel you back at a rapid rate. I was watching a YouTube video of a wheel user at Silverstone on the medium and same 50% race distance. Their tyre wear on the front left was around 15% less than what I'm achieving after 7 laps. And they were not lifting in Copse, Maggots Becketts and stowe to protect them. There is something fundamentally wrong here that absolutely needs investigating. My only fear is to apply any fix, would they have to change the handling physics? I truly hope not because I like the majority of other pad users are really enjoying the handling.IanM28227 days agoSeasoned Ace133Views7likes1CommentController Performance at high levels are unacceptable. (Long Winded)
So to give the full context and nuances of this post… I race and run a relatively popular league on the F1 game and have done for the past 3 years. We hand out trophies irl to our Drivers Champions and race fairly competitively. Out of the 6 completed seasons under this league umbrella, 3 out of the 6 winners have been on a controller. That includes myself and a member I’ll call ‘Slaz’. We’ve managed to consistently race around the top levels of leagues against high level wheel users for the past 5 titles and been able to compete with them even on the poorest handling models of recent years. Currently, we’re 3 races into Season 7 and I can safely say the experience on a controller, is at its absolute worst. The horrific understeer through every corner and abhorrent tyre wear makes the game unplayable at a league racing level. Currently, all controller users that race with us are doing two stop races just to make the end of a GP. In TT I can set a a very competive time when compared to the rest of the world. Currently in the top 3% at Japan (Our next track) and you’d think that’d put you in good stead. However, the tyre wear makes racing absolutely impossible with a SC bringing the pack back together. At China, we ended being p4 and p5, 20 seconds of the win due to having to do a second stop. I admit those drivers up front are quality drivers, probably in the top 500 - 1000 on Xbox, but on every other game they’ve been beatable in at least some races, often times most races. After one practice session around Japan it’s become abundantly clear that there is no chance of competing on this title. When compared to a competitive wheel user, I am averaging 20% more tyre wear than them over a stint, virtually making it completely non-competitive. Furthermore, the drivability is at an all time low with high fuel. There’s zero rotation on the car through slow speed and the understeer through corners like spoon make it a worthless endeavour. This needs an absolute overhaul for the controller user. I appreciate that for some users the controller can feel ‘fun’. With all the respect in the world, the people that are issuing that feedback should not be the focus. The people who have stood by this franchise year in year out, through great titles like 2020 to the mess of a title 24 was, they are the backbone of this community and need to be heard. There are 3 posts here, about this issue, in 48 hours and it’s evident there’s a huge discrepancy between the controller and wheel. If somebody from the team sees this, fix this issue before you lose people for good.ImMrDjCj462 months agoSeasoned Newcomer87Views7likes1CommentPad tyre wear
I already made a comment about pad being very unbalanced and a lot slower compared to wheel this game but now something else caught my eye. The biggest advantage wheel has in this game is not even in a one lap pace, where it can gain between 3 and 5 tenths compared to pad, but it’s in the race. It has come to my attention that, after a few laps of the race, wheel drivers start to gain compared to pad drivers out of nowhere and the gap just keeps increasing even if the pad drivers were managing their tyres. This is because pad tyre wear is a lot worse than wheel tyre wear. One of my friends was doing a coop career race and he noticed his tyre wear being 60% at the first stint, then asked his teammate, a wheel driver, about his tyre wear and he said it was 40%. This clearly shows that pad this game is not usable and needs a patch to balance it off immediately, because the difference is too big. Skill doesn’t even matter anymore, it’s about if you have a wheel or not. Please ea fix this.6atifi2 months agoSeasoned Novice202Views7likes3Comments
