Dear Team,
I'm writing to express my deep frustration with how AI behaves in wet conditions in F1 25 on PC (EA Games App). - I dont know if it is the same on other platforms
Yes, the AI technically slows down a bit when it rains — but the level of grip they have is completely unrealistic, almost as if they're still racing on a dry track. Meanwhile, for human players, driving in the wet feels like a completely different game.
Even with traction control turned off or set to medium — which is often necessary just to keep up — the car becomes extremely unstable or, conversely, heavily restricted. Traction control drags the car down, making it sluggish and unresponsive, while the AI seems to glide through corners with minimal loss of pace or traction.
This creates a massive imbalance and takes away from the realism and enjoyment of wet-weather racing. Frankly, it feels unfair — and it's incredibly frustrating, especially in a full-priced game where players expect a more balanced and authentic experience.
I truly hope this issue is being acknowledged and that improvements to AI grip levels and TC behavior in wet conditions are being considered in future patches.
Sincerely,

Hi,
I absolutely agree with the concerns raised above. I’d like to add that this is not what I would expect from a triple-A title. It’s not the presence of bugs that’s the real issue — we’re all human, and mistakes happen — but the frustrating part is that, two months after release, this issue still hasn’t been addressed.
Please take this seriously, because in its current state, wet-weather races are practically unplayable. Also, the straight-line speed difference — both in dry and wet conditions — is another major imbalance that needs attention.
To be honest, I’m considering cancelling my EA Play Pro subscription if I don’t see improvements in these key areas in the near future.
Sincerely,
EPHYIX
