Qualifying Practice Program to Difficult?
I had already noticed it in F1 2022 but can it be that also in 2023 the training program of the qualifying round is much too difficult? The other programs are no problem for me but Quali is very extr...

Honestly speaking is not a solution, but I feel my team progression is lightspeed fast I can get from the worst car (no comment on all interviews starting as the worst team 460 performance) to the best car overall 750-800 in 1 year (23 races, slightly more than one year if I play 16)
That made me invent the rule of completing only one practice program per race week (to get less bonus). I could then easily skip the qualification program (that is bugged and impossible). My goal was to get the best car after 4-5 years, as I like to fight for the middle position quite a lot. To achieve it, after a few tests, I found out I had to use all player stuff (RD - money - team xp - player xp) to reduce.
My rule so far is to enjoy MY TEAM.
- Interview - No comment to all
(starting performance between +/-460 as reference RedBull 1st performance 615-620)
- Difficult level 75
- Only complete one program per practice weekend
(you can select it strategically; I usually tend to do the one with the most Aerodynamic or Chassis, obviously not Qualif. practice)
- RD player - Reduced
- Money player - Reduced
- Xp player - Reduced
- XP Team - Reduced
Completed 1st season - performance level lower half (slightly better than the start. Actually, the first year is the hardest as you get less money because you have fewer adv., and with lower XP you don't get team lvl 15 that quickly)
Completed 2nd season - performance level top half (things start speeding up)
I am playing 3rd season and in the top 4 performance. By the end, I think I will be 2nd or maybe already 1st but by the end of the year, probably.
In the fourth season, I suspect I will get leadership, maybe not win them all because I sux at some tracks.
The fifth season is the last one. I think there is no really any reason to keep going. You practically dominate for me usually, it is the last season end of the game.
Then I will start again, this time with an entire realistic weekend (the first time I use 5 day race), and maybe bump one the difficulty to 79. This will take me busy for probably 1-2 months, but I will go down to 16 races per calendar. I feel 23 is a bit much. There are some circuits that I don't like at all, and it feels a little draggy.
@pekish79 love that setup i'm pinching that haha
There is a bug that if you play with reduced money, you start with more money because it doesn't make you pay for the engine (I think because the "reduced-money" is not enough to pay the pilot and motor, it only makes you pay for the pilot)
So my walkaround starts with "normal" money and then switches day one to "reduced" money in the setup.
The bug is:
Start money 4.05M (I usually pick the 3rd one, Selene) - Engine (3.3M) - Pilot (500K) = 250K - NORMAL MONEY
Start money 3.03M (4.05-25%) - Engine (3.3M) - Pilot (500K) = 2.53M REDUCED MONEY (I didn't pay engine!)
After the initial bug, all was well; all money rewards and stuff were 25% less, but starting with more money (playing reduced money) is weird, so in the first setup, I used the NORMAL MONEY, so I got to pay full engine/pilot and then switched to reduced.
NORMAL PLAY START
REDUCED PLAY START
The car is called "golden lady." It's metallic pink gold with glossy black finishes
- @pekish79 Cheers man, i'm looking to make the mode more fun because what i've seen on videos its so easy to improve the team and thats boring to me.
It's crazy easy. I usually do five team-mode ten races, five laps to weight difficulty (as in now I am between 75-79) in the first week for one year each
and the first 2 I did with all default and winning all practice programs (or 99% of them, I may have skipped a few qualify.)
and I went from the worst car to the best-ever car/team crazy high level for my pilot and my team in just one year, better than the best
this is why I had to come out with a personal rule to slow everything down
now I am happy with speed is on the slow side, and it takes me 4-5 years to get the best (once I get the best, there is not much point in keeping going as the AI will never catch up)
so I am making a 16-race career all FULL; it will probably take 1-2 months of fun to get to the top. I love full-length races; nothing compares, honestly
I am a person that does five-laps races or full racers
