Features to add for F1 23: Timer option for beginning race & Setup Screen Change

Another idea I have thought of for F1 23 is making an option for a timer before the race starts. So instead of someone pressing "go to track" which starts the 30sec countdown for everyone, there should be an option where you can choose how long the timer will be before the race starts (or one-shot quali). Let it be options of 1min, 2min or 3min.

Also, I think as far setups are concerned: 

A) You should be able to toggle through setups for each track. So there can be a drop-down for the track, and then you can save your setup into that track drop down. And you can choose any drop-down for any track (so if you are doing time trial at Bahrain, you can still choose the drop-down for Miami and every other track where all saved setups would appear for those tracks too).

B) As far as going through the different setup headers (fuel load, aerodynamics, transmission, suspension geometry, etc.), it should be changed to where your actual setup inputs are not shown until you press X (Playstation user) on whichever setup header you have highlighted. That way for those who may be streaming and they don't want to show parts of their setup, they can scroll across the setup headers without it showing until they press the command to show it.

Little things like these suggestions are very small, but would actually be a good innovation for a new game. Hopefully this is seen and can be implemented, it would be very good.

  • @FranchiseK With the timer i think anything longer than 30 seconds is too long, especially for online races. If i had to wait upto 3 minutes for a race to start it would put me off online altogether

    With the setup drop down this would be good as its awkward scrolling down to my abu dhabi setup which is the last on my list as i name them in track order.

    The hiding of the setup is a niche idea but honestly everyone copies setups from someone so i dont think it will make a huge difference to hide this information from everyone.
