F1 World Series too easy for tech level
I am at tech level 224 currently. The F1 World series available to me now range from tech level 90 to 160 so all are too easy. It's no fun racing against opponents who lap 10 seconds slower than me. ...

I gave the F1 World Series a quick play for the first time last night, and very quickly quit it out of boredom!
I'm a fairly average player, usually using around 90 AI level no assists on a controller. But i was winning every single race by about 20-30 seconds in 5 lap races.....
I didn't apply a single upgrade, just using the base F1 World Car for every race and it just felt like Time Trial as once i took the lead, there was zero threat from behind and no option to increase the difficulty.
What is the point in this mode if you're not a complete beginner at the game? Does it even get harder? If it does, I feel like at this rate I'll need to be playing for about 10 hours before it starts to become a challenge....
@SDGMattIn case you haven't looked, note that the AI level in F1 World is initially set at 35. I'm not sure if it increases or not. I'm confident 90 is way above 'average' by the way. Just consider where your times put you on the TT leaderboards (way above 50% I'm sure).
The answer to the question that started this thread is to equip the lowest performances parts etc that you've got but I do think that the simple 'fix' that EA should be considering for more experienced players would be to make the AI level adjustable like it normally is. This would also allow it to be reduced for genuine brand new players.
@Ultrasonic_77It isn't possible to set the AI level in all F1 World series or events and seems to scale depending on delta between the tech level of the player and the recommended tech level for the F1 World series/events.
Equipping lesser performant parts is not to be seen as a viable solution or even mitigation because if you don't have parts that are lower spec, it is not possible to unequip items and thus, the player are unable to lower their tech level, unless the dismantle their only items (if that's even possible in the first place).
This could be fully mitigated by scaling the lowest difficulty of the events with the current tech level of the player.
I.e the player levels up to level 500, and the lowest level that a series can be, becomes level 500 and so on.

I know. Hence my suggestion of a change that could be made to improve the situation would be to make it so that it is adjustable.
Oh, and re. parts what the lowest level anyone will have will depend on the lowest level they keep. I know it's too late for some but I'd advise everyone for now to deliberately keep some low level parts just in case they want to downgrade their car.
