Hey drivers, The newest patch is now available across all platforms. You can find out what's in this patch in this thread HERE Need some help? Something in the patch not working the way it should? Tell us in this thread.

@LuckyNico92 My apologies if I come across as a *, but there's 0 chance in 0 of Kylotonn taking over F1 simply because they couldn't afford the licensing fees needed to obtain the IP from the FIA. Even if they took out two loans on every asset they owned they'd still come up well short.While I only played 2 or 3 of the Kylotonn WRC games nothing really stuck out at me that made me think they deserved a shot at a big-time franchise like F1.The ideal situation would be to start a Kickstarter or crowdfunding operation (or stumble upon an angel investor) to free Codemasters from the grip of EA so they can go back to focusing on racing instead of concentrating on how to shoe-horn micro-transactions into the game.

Why are the podium pass rewards all for F1 world this game and cosmetics like liveries and racing gear seem so limited?There's 0 incentive for me to play and grind like other games with a BP when the rewards aren't worth it. F1 world has been a huge let down imo and I really hope it returns to 21 and 22 multiplayer spec, likewise with the podium pass. I'd rather have too many cosmetic items than stuff that's just sitting unopened as is the case with F1 world

The idea of a studio the likes of Kylotonn acquiring the F1 license is ludicrous. Both for the reasons you've stated and for the one flying under the radar here: monetization and a yearly franchise are most definitely of Liberty Media's liking.I do think Codies is failing even at that, even more so with the fiasco that the eSports scene has been verging on and the decreasing sales, but it's been implied a bazillion times that many stakeholders demand a level of revenue that would not otherwise me achieved. That predates the EA acquisition by a long, long time.Codies license isn't new, but I'd wager that a microtransactions bolstered revenue was at the core of their last renewal a handful of years ago.Same goes for the casual gamers audience and the simcade handling. Whenever (if ever) Liberty feels like offering a true simracing experience, they're most likely to go to a different partner and have the two franchises coexisting, firmly believing they would not cannibalize each other's public.The latter is Just my hunch obviously, but the terms of Codies' and Liberty's agreement severely constraining their business model has been practically spelled out over the years.It is just your last paragraph that I don't agree with. It is no coincidence that the other interested party in acquiring Codies was Take-Two before being outbid by EA. Codies was already shifting towards this monetization model, and I'm convinced that was part of Codies' pitch - their decision to move to MTX - and one of the main reasons EA's offer was so appealing.Again, the franchise is in a dire state and I'm positive Codemasters is under pressure here with their failing at revamping their revenue year after year - if historical data of active Steam players and EA's quarterly reports are anything to go by. They absolutely need to get their act together, implement a solid multiplayer experience and can hardly afford to deliver another same old same old package again. But revenue aside (heh) that's pretty much what F1 wants for this franchise.EA and Codemasters. This is a marriage, not a kidnapping.

@mariohomoh EA and Codemasters. This is a marriage, not a kidnapping 😂😂😂😂😂😂Also just want to add. Current WRC game is being compared with Dirt Rally 2.0 and RBR. And not to the previous WRC games because it’s no contest that the Current EA WRC is better

Phew... Deep breaths... 😤Let's just hope that the final update in 34 days and 17 hours will be a big banger to finish F1 23. The game still needs Nyck de Vries back, there is still no new content, and overall, the game is basically a hollow shell, waiting to be filled with lots of love.

Wow, have to say I'm a bit surprised we got another patch, I assumed we had entered the dark ages of perpetuity. Also I think this is a record, don't think any CM F1 has made it to the big 1.2 before.

@EA_Groguet So, it would seem the visual wheel caps on the F1 World real team special awarded car liveries are still colour glitched! Which they have been like ever since about 2 update patches back. No, I'm not going to provide a photo to show what I've just spent all this time explaining. Besides, I have already post pictures here before...which obviously didn't seem to do much to help. Because with two patches later the problem still exist. I will no longer be purchasing any future F1 game!! Rant done...

Still didn't fix F2 Practice session, its still at 30 mins when it should be 45 mins. Just give the license to 2K, at least they get the rules of the sport right.

@EdwardJays Or how about Kylotonn Racing? They made 11 awesome WRC games, and I'm 99.9% certain that they'll do F1 just as awesome.

After downloading the update today, both my Thrustmaster and Logitech wheel are not centering while going straight. After a tight turn, the wheel stays off-center 20-30 degrees, then slowly comes back to center on a straight stretch. This did not happen before the most recent update, and is not happening on any other games. Wondering if there is an in game setting i can adjust.

@TheRagebeardBasedbeard 😍😂
It’s also a matter of if they would even want the F1 license. As you’ve already alluded to. Huge financial gamble
