F1 22 Performance patch
Can't wait until the performance patch comes out for this game, considering in real life pretty much all the teams apart from one have improved, it should make the game that much better ti play. On a...

@Freakstyle Lol no sorry.
I dont know by what metric you say that all cars are miles clear of Aston Martin (or even that they need to be faster in the game, laptimes are fine as is) especially with how unrealistic the driver ratings are, but claiming Aston Martin in is generally 0.4s slower than McLaren and 0.7s slower than Alpine is a bold statement. Yes Aston Martin have for some reason struggled massively in the wet lately but their car is not bad at all anymore, McLaren at some tracks even slower due to their high downforce setup but then at tracks like Hungary they might be near 0.4s faster..
The performances should be made how they are IRL not just generically better or worse for anything regarding performance but Alpine for instance, low drag, low downforce, ok mechanical grip. McLaren ~3rd best downforce and mechanical grip but horrible top speed.
Another thing you need to consider is track evolution with every dry session in quali the times are generally improving by up to half a second so when it seems at times like Williams is 3s slower than pole, its not really that much, the driver plays a role and the track conditions make the car slower..

Everything you said i took into account when talking about what i said. So again i agree to disagree the cars in real life are faster than they are in the game. Why? Because they estimated the cars closeness and performance from pre season testing.
Every team more or less has improved quite a ways since then, and the gaps in real life everywhere apart from canada and monaco were quite big. Finding the average of both teammates and so on also lead to my stats of the cars being tweaked performance wise.
The cars should reflect real life performance wise, and currently they do not.
- @Freakstyle They do reflect real life performance though, time trial laps are faster than what they do IRL so there is 0 sense in making the cars faster when they already get faster with the torque changes making traction easier - even if its not much..
Again you overestimate gaps, cant take drivers like Latifi into consideration who is known to be bad And Monaco and Azerbaijan were actually the biggest gaps all season front to back due to Ferrari and Red Bull finding somehow gaining more mechanical grip..
The gap possibly being a bit bigger to the back might be, especially as the driver ratings need to be better but the car worse, but often its just exaggerated by teams not getting the setup right just like Aston Martin and Haas did yesterday where Williams got it right. But that doesnt mean the front runners are already a lot faster which they arent! Look at the practice results of recent tracks with wet quali and compare them to the time trial laps, they usually improve by ~1s from best practice to Q3 yet in Canada the cars are 4s quicker than practice, in Azerbaijan they are also 2.5s quicker than quali of Baku, Monaco 2.5s quicker, Silverstone 1.7s quicker than practice.. You just cant tell me that the game needs to be even faster cars, but the gaps front to back being a bit bigger okay, but not to a huge extent, IRL gets exaggerated by car characteristics and poor setup choices + drivers.
Also i never said all cars are faster than the aston.... At no point did i say that. I said if and when they do make the cars faster, start with the williams, then progressively go forward with the gaps then referenced gaps between each car that makes sense for the real world field spread of fastest to slowest.
