100% distance - full fuel wont finish the race in Hungary

100% driver career mode. In Hungary race start with 110 kg of fuel and you are -3.5 laps short. Race cannot br finished. Is there a work around for this? On f123 iI had same issue  - i had to istall a mod that allowed filiel consumption to be switched off but cant do that on 24? Any ideas or workarounds for this? If it happens at more races the career mode will be untenable.

  • Looking at my data it seems Hungary is just op on fuel. Annoying as fuel saving required even on 110 kg of fuel means player cant be competitive. I had the sam issue on f123 as well but its not as extreme on f124. Not had an issue at any other circuit so far

    I haven’t had this since 2020. I had to do the race programme without DRS or ERS to get the right fuel load. But assuming the issue is you fuel up to the max and still can ‘t finish I don’t know how to help.

    I could be wrong, but I'm sure this was an issue at Qatar in F123 as well?

    Yes it was. Issue at hingary not as bad at Hungary on 24 compared to 23 you can fuel save and finish but given the ai dont have to your compranised as the player. Makes no sense fuel consumption is so high at Hungary vs other tracks

    I also find in qualifying I can’t get the fuel load down far enough to set a competitive time unless I do two warm up laps. And then in F2 a number of corners have zero grip. The track seems very messed up this year.

    Yes, in my 50% league race for Qatar on F1 23, we had 9 out of 17 drivers run out of fuel on the last lap..... None of them had changed from the default fuel strategy and started the race with a couple of laps extra. That shouldn't happen....
