Maximum Speed Issue in Formula 1 2023 Game - Seeking Feedback

Hey everyone,

I hope you're all enjoying the Formula 1 2023 game as much as I am! I wanted to bring up something I've noticed and see if anyone else has experienced the same issue.

During my races, I've noticed that my car reaches a maximum speed of 351 km/h. However, at this speed, the engine starts making a strange noise, and I'm unable to go any faster. I've tried various approaches, including slipstreaming behind the car in front of me, but to no avail.

This issue has occurred consistently across different game modes and with various teams. It's got me wondering if it's just a limitation in the game or if there's something wrong on my end. Has anyone else encountered this problem, or is 351 km/h indeed the maximum speed in the game?

I would greatly appreciate any input or experiences you could share. If you've managed to achieve higher speeds or have any insights on this matter, please let me know. It would be helpful to understand if this is an isolated issue or a common occurrence.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and happy racing!

Best regards,

  • @imaspes Most likely you have been driving a Mercedes, Aston Martin or Williams all the time you tested as those are limited by their gear ratio or rather the game not allowing for higher revs than 13k.. The strange noise is the rev limiter, you cant go faster than that, its a known issue at this point but i dont know if Codemasters will do anything about it

  • I've looked at the power unit now and it is indeed the Mercedes power unit as you said. So for next season, I'll try the Ferrari one.

    Any idea about whether they are going to change the rev-limiter for the Mercedes power unit or?
