Myteam Avatar driver

Please let us drive in the "My Team" mod with our driver avatar. I want to be able to be both manager and driver like in previous games.

I love the new "My Team" that allows us to fully manage the team. But I want to drive as myself. In career mode, we are just the driver and cannot manage the team and we can use our avatar. But for those who, like me, love management games and driving, having the opportunity to be both driver and boss would be perfect. I don't want to play the role of an existing driver, but I want to fight them all on the track with my own car. I want to be myself and nothing else.

  • My words exactly. I loved this whole scenario with being an owner driver, and EA SPORTS took it all away from us and replaced it with an unnecessarily complicated management game. 

    Honestly, if I want to play F1 Manager, I'll play F1 Manager, and not a racing game.

    I actually prefer it this way and would go a step further and would like to hot seat my two drivers. Say race 25% as one, then the other and switch again. 

    But for those who don’t like it maybe they could add make your own icon for next year so you can drive as your created driver.

    I mean, I absolutely love the extra management aspects, but how the current game system works make infinitely more sense to have an Owner Driver than having to hire two non-user drivers. 

    Like, what's the point to hire two expensive driver if player can always have the advantage to overperform with a cheap one, by driving as them?

    If incorperating Owner Driver back to MyTeam is too much too ask, simply having an "Add Custom Driver" to the driver market would strike-two-birds with-one-stone, by both solving the issue of the currently very dull driver market, and fulfilling the desire of player driving as themselves (even in a less perfect sense, it's still better than not)

    The Custom Driver stats could be either freely editable, or can just make them work like in Driver Career, where it changes based on your performance (if you're driving as them)

  • When I was younger and braver and stroke free I was an owner driver! Ok it was an amateur Aussie rally team and the car was a Honda Civic but still, was so much fun and totally awesome. Aside from that I refuse to race as a dude anymore and there are no women I can drive as in f125, so disappointing!
