Too many mechanical failures

Product: F1 23
Platform:Xbox Series X
Please specify your platform model. Microsoft Xbox Series X
Summarize your bug 4 mechanical failures in the first 5 races of season 5.
What is your 16 digit Report Code?
Can you please provide the name of your current internet service provider?
Which area is the bug/glitch in? Single Player
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure
What happens when the bug occurs? I don't finish a race
What do you expect to see? Not so many mechanical failures with a fully upgraded car

I'm at the start of season 5 with all durability upgrades fitted to a fully upgraded car.

I've had 1 or 2 failures in a season, but this season I've had 4 in the first 5 races.

3 gearboxes and an MGU-H

Surely this can't be right?

  • @DRudd13Dude I had 8 R&D updates fail in a row. Despite all had a 15% or lower risk of failure. Sorry I sound like a broken record. But I’ve spent more time trying to find workarounds in career modes than I have actually playing, They are simply a complete disaster. They unfortunately won’t be fixed in this game. Hope is as 24 has apparently got an all new career. It should be relatively balanced. 

    Only sure way is to turn off mechanical failures and department events and manually nerf yourself every now and then.   What I ended up doing.  I’d crash out off a few races per season or just take new parts even when I didn’t need to

    Not good about the R&D failures. Not expecting them to be fixed, but gotta let them know about things not working as they should and HOPE all is put right next game.

    That's not a great workaround, But I didn't have this many failures till my car was fully upgraded.

    It's now 5 failures in 7 races. At this rate I'll be lucky to finish 8 races this season.

    Control electronics this time
