So finally started a MyTeam, my favourite mode, after hoping good customizeable liveries would drop. Still bitter about that. 

I know next year the mode is to get a revamp so here are some ideas.

1. Lots of cusomization. Liveries, badges, helmets should attempt to be realistic, look at some classic liveries to get ideas. Badge backgrounds should have a “none” option and the emblem should be allowed to be bigger than the badge. Allow for different team wear (not always the same shirts)  and pit crew suits and helmets. You could use the casual wear for the team wear if you need product placement money that badly.

2. I say allow the driver and owner to be separate characters, we can hire two drivers if we want and drive as either one in a season, or weekend or maybe allow for hotseat like in the old GP games by Geoff Crammond where you drive x number of laps before handing off and going back and forth till the race was done. Would also allow for local co-op play. 

3. Allow for some team orders in a limited way, not all drivers might follow them though. Allow us to set the strategy for each driver, not just the one we are playing. 

4. When drivers retire and an F2 driver comes up, replace the F2 driver with a fictional driver in the pool, great way to increase diversity, or add F3 and F1 Academy drivers to fill the F2 void. 

5.Drivers should have rivalries and ratings. Maybe the owners could have rivalries like Wolf v Horner by adding media questions ar even just articles we see that give us the feeling we’re in a rivalry. 

6. Driver ratings would help determine if a driver would join a team even if the money was available. 

7.Budget cap is an obvious thing. Make sure we don’t end up with tons of money and nothing to spend it on. 

8. Facilities and personnel determine development rates, build rates, reliability, failure in production and cost money. Personnel expect raises and bonuses, can leave or retire. Great personnel require more money for a bad team to sign them. Facilities require upgrades and upkeep. Race strategist should give our race engineer advice like extend the sting by 2 laps or come in a lap early for under or over cuts or gaps in traffic. Good strategist make better calls. 

9. The development tree should be randomized a bit so each team is a little different under the current regs. Personnel might affect the cost of developments. When new regs come in, the tree gets scrambled.

10. Teams need to decide to build the new car or develop the current one, constrained by R&D points and funds. 

11. In F1 the amount of development time in the wind tunnel etc. is determined by order of finish in the previous half season (I think, if not just season) so either the cost of R&D could go up for the top teams or failure rate could increase for them. Good personnel counter the affects. 

12. Hide some of the tree so it isn’t clear what needs to be done to unlock something, the randomized trees after a reg change would keep people from learning the R&D tree. Maybe allow some development branches to suggest something only for the link to that next development to not exist (like Mercedes and the zero side pod). 

13. Bring the mirrors in to be in line with the real cars and useful in cockpit view.
