ERS Deploy During Quali
Why is it that during qualifying, I have to change my ERS via the MFD menu, but during the race, ERS is done simply with the push of a button? Is it possible to have push button deploy in quali? Very...

So then is there any reason to turn off the ERS deploy during qualifying?
I always thought ERS was just the Yellow bar in the middle. I didn’t know there was a deploy cap (green) that resets every lap.
Does the yellow bar mean anything during quali?
What I do is as soon as I pull out of the pits, I turn off ERS deploy for my outlap because I don’t want to waste ERS. As I come into my flying lap, I turn it back on, but sometimes that means trying to turn it on in the middle of a turn or chicane which is kind of troublesome. What’s the easiest/best approach here?
From what you’re saying, it sounds like I should just forget the yellow bar and leave ERS on Hotlap since it resets every lap.
@RyKnocks Well, the yellow bar is still relevant depending on how many hot laps you're planning on doing, in case you sleep on it and don't recharge enough for another lap.
And on Career and My Team modes I guess you'd be adding wear to the many ERS components if you keep it on hotlap even when you're not on a flying lap? It's been a while, I don't remember what the wear scales with for them.

So I guess my initial feedback still stands. Since there’s only two modes in qualifying, None or Hotlap, I wish it was as simple as pressing the overtake button to switch between the two.
@RyKnocksBut you can?
You can bind a button for ERS modes since... Haha I actually don't even remember playing a F1 game where you couldn't 😂
It's in the settings. Scroll down on the key bindings section.
I always had buttons mapped to ERS, brake bias, and differential on my controller. Dropped ERS after F1 2020 or 2021 because didn't find it a hassle to go through the MFD after the ERS was simplified.Ahh thanks for that!!
