F1 24 Career mode engine failures

Product: F1 24
Platform:Xbox Series S
Please specify your platform model. Microsoft Xbox Series S
Summarize your bug Mercedes failures happen very frequently. This is in two player career mode (unsure if it happens as often in normal career or my team career mode)
What is your 16 digit Report Code? Don’t have one
What peripherals are you using? Please list the exact make and model. Nil
Can you please provide the name of your current internet service provider? No
Which area is the bug/glitch in? Multiplayer
Did you have cross-play enabled? No
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play two player career mode
What happens when the bug occurs? Mercedes has a lot of engine failure even with standard faults, in two player career mode our durability is one of the best and I’m still the only one on the grid with engine/part failures (maybe I’m just very unlucky but I have had 7 dnfs due to failures so far) and I am only at monza
What do you expect to see? Less engine failures when you have the best durability on the grid

    @EttlesDurability only relates to wear rate. Failures are randomly decided at start off your career. Tested this many times. Saved start off a second season once. Uploaded to it to cloud. Restarted that career many times. And engine failures happened on same lap off same race every time no matter if I upgraded durability parts. Or even if I swapped in new parts before a race I was expecting a parts failure 

    It’s unfortunately just how the game works. Sometimes those failures will be spread out evenly across seasons other times as your finding they will be skewed to one season

    #1 thing you HAVE to focus on STRAIGHT OUT OF THE GATES, is the Durability and Reliability Testing.
    It seems like a requirement to not explode every race...
    After the Stage 2 durability upgrades, I haven't had much of any issues... they still creep in, but nowhere near as close to before.

    Doesnt work like that unfortunately. I keep getting DNFs thru exploded car in 7 races per season approximately even with all durability upgrades being all at level 2. Considering AIs get like 2-3 DNFs at max is crazy.

    Not sure what Fault rate setting you're using, but after I turned my Fault rate to Low, failures seem to happen at a more realistic frequency (i.e. not often).
