AI issue when they are behind you

This is for the devs...... Just completed a full 57 lap race in Bahrain in career mode and encountered the following issue: As I had gone quite leisurely on the race practice programme, my team (Alpine) decided to massively under-fuel me so I had to spend most of the race managing fuel (fair enough). What was hilarious though was that as I was "coasting" into most corners, the AI cars behind me seemed to think I wasn't there and rammed me (doing no damage to myself but causing them to have to pit). This is how many times it happened...........

Alonso x 2, Albon x 2, Bearman, Bortoleto, Leclerc, Hamilton, Gasly, Hulkenberg and Hadjar........

Was a fun race as all in all it caused chaos.........three red flags, three safety cars and an VSC.......

However, I don't think this would happen in real life as I'm pretty sure these elite drivers know a thing or two about driving.........well.......most of them.

    Hi Dookie,

    your experience reminds me of racing the game, Formula 1-98 in 1998

    In that game, after passing the AI on the straight, you could expect a shunt from behind at the next corner 🤪

    Very unrealistic back in 1998, and you'd hope that in 2025 that the AI performance in F1 games would be more realistic.
