Hey drivers, Patch 1.08 is now out on all platforms. You can find out what's in this patch in this thread here. How is the improvement on the AI difficulty in career mode? Tell us in this thread here!

Hey, Simple tip:If you are not being able to compete against AI because they are faster than you... Maybe, the AI level that you are using is too high for you. And this is a different game than last year one.Most of the complains that I read could be solved if you LOW THE DIFFICULTY LEVEL.Start low, find your balance checking your team stats, your team mate level and you will find fun.This game is incredible. Perfect? Off course not. People is trying that the GAME GETS ADAPTED TO THEM. You will be happier if you try that YOU ADAPT TO THE GAME.Cheers and have fun guys

@PJ-THE_bot-II Yeah, but players that do 100% distance want the actual f1 rules to be followed, by allowing us to choose which tyres we take through qualifying and to the race. On 2021, there were 2 sets of mediums available in qualy and race, this year there’s just the 1 available making for extremely boring strategy options. Take a look at f1 over the past 2 years, it’s become clear that 2 mediums/ 1 hard, or 1 medium/ 2 hards have been the main strategies used. Only on occasion now the soft tyres play a big factor in the race itself, and this is only when the hard tyres are too hard or it’s too cold like Hungary was for them, plus fastest lap if there’s a big enough gap behind to go for fastest lap.All in all, which ever side, EA or CM, decided to remove a set of mediums from the qualifying pool made a colossal error.

When is the patch coming where we can finally use 2 Mediums and 2 Hard Tires in Tires. ? The developers have failed even with the small things

@EA_rephiiCould your guys please give an update on this pretty big issue regarding tyre allocation? We were notified it was passed onto the devs 3 weeks ago but it's not even appeared on the Community-Raised issues list.https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Wrong-tires-mandatory-free-choice-of-tires-not-possible/td-p/11631550Edit: Also, to further the original post of that thread, the issue exists in ALL modes, not just multiplayer.

@EA_rephii Is this issue also on your radar for a next patch? Its not on the 'awaiting patch' list, but it is a major bug that destroys strategy in longer raceshttps://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Wrong-tires-mandatory-free-choice-of-tires-not-possible/td-p/11631550/page/6

What exactly was the Patch now?? When i drove on 80 i need to increase to 85 and face the same issues like before? I don't get this patch really. Any impressions so far already? I had no trouble really with 80,season ended with just 5 points difference to Vettel,so pretty even and balanced to team mate.

Yeah, no idea. Maybe its a fix for the insane traction they get or their weight has been increased, no one really knew what the issue is/was with the AI Speed in MyTeam/Career.

Forum says'Fix AI straight-line speed'.
Official website says that 'Rebalancing career mode AI performance.
Is this the same issue or is it mislabeled?

Does seem the case, They are still too fast on GP, and even on Career I dont see much of a difference but its harder to tell cause of upgrades and stuff.

Don’t get it. Why it is so difficult to adjust the AI Level. Ok it might be different from 2021 but why there is a need to drive at the same level? And why this patch was so highly requested? It’s only a „random“ number.

I thought the AI straight line speed bug was not (as) present in GP Mode?
