How to solve the AI level problem
Setting the AI level in career and my team mode is really annoying and kills any joy you get from the game.. especially that it varies from session to session let alone from race to race.. unless ur ...

Yep I used this

for last years doesn't seem to be tge same page for 22?! I literally wrote every tracks ai level down. Made me laugh when I came to Bahrain this game and was almost 3 secs off My teamate lol dropped to 70 ha. But yea my tactic is to start at 75 then only compare yourself to your teammate, no-one else! In fp aslong as you've used same tryes you can see how quick or slow you are to said teammate.
Adjust 5 for every second needed up or down on the ai level. Qualify should be OK. This does take a bit to get used to doing, but that Web site above is pretty good and I could 1 guess most of the tracks!
Using any teammate as bench mark is NOT the correct way to set AI level
1) The car capability or lack of will undermine ur actual skill.. and thus you will not know what is ur AI level when the car improves
2) Ur actual AI level has to be set against the AI best benchmark which is Verstappen or Hamilton maybe Leclerc.. see when ur in worst car then difference between you those AIs bench mark is down to the car so when you get a similar car to them you will be able to compete against them.. in other words your teammates does not matter because if his not good then ur suppose to beat him
3) in ALL career modes its a moving target since both AI drivers and cars will develop so if you don't improve then you have to lower AI difficulty from the set bench marks of the Year 1
We need EA/codematsers to allow AI changes during race and qualification session through setup menu in teh loading screen like they did in F1 2020 (i think) and before
Comparing and adjusting team mate ai has never been an issue for me last year, and this method gave me great races. So each to their own on that one mate.
In myteam at start I’ll set the ai during fp1. By picking the closest ranked team to me who has a ai driver with 90+ pace. Last year was Gasly. Check his lap times on medium tyres in race director. And for every second I’m faster on same tyre I increase ai by 10 and for every second I’m slower decrease by ten. Until I can afford a teammate with 90+ pace then I go by his times: Don’t know if it will work out the same this year. But last year my teammates were either Lando or button both maxed to 100 with 2nd driver facilities. And every race unless we had a dnf or some other issue we would always be within a few seconds off eachother throughout a 50% race. Although they always beat me by a few tenths in qualifying
@Dan78loki you having great races on wrong settings is not a standard.. its like someone saying racing with Traction control is the fastest way for me 😕
Who says they're wrong , some random on the Internet?
If it works for me I don't consider that wrong. So if it's all the same I will continue to do what I think is right and what works for me.
