Season 2 of My Team, this guy is the top driver in F1. McLaren are a midfield team, but he's topping the charts during practice and qualifying. Not sure why he blew up like this in game.
Maybe he became like Bottas from previous years, who was unrealistically fast when they had a decent car.
Anyone else seen this?
Season 1 of Driver career, just got to the summer break, Lando has won the last 2 races.
Not like i really care, but i seem to remember seeing this in f1 2021 also
Got to remember Codemasters is still British.. you gotta expect some buffing off British teams and drivers.. No different to Gran Turismo buffing Japanese cars as they always have. Well GT1-5 they definitely did havnt played 7 much as it bored me to tears.
@NylinkWill try it out tomorrow.
I just finished a 2nd season, 100% British GP (85 AI) in MyTeam (Got DNF from engine failure with only 10 laps to go, though), and Lando was a whopping 48 sec ahead of Lewis in 2nd with the 4th best car, please take note that the McLaren engine R&D was about one major upgrade worth behind the Mercedes.
Don't mind about the modded team names, so far I've only done visual related stuff since I'm still testing the careers, and I forgot to take a pic of the race result for the love of god.
During the start of the race, he was already 2-3 sec away from Max in 2nd in like 3 laps, I noticed he was always at least a couple of km/h faster mid-corners. But I couldn't compare that with Daniel because he was stuck in traffic most of the race. Also somehow, the Ferrari had no pace during the race, at all.
I have a copy of save file before this race, will try to add those lines back and rerun the race for a little to see if Lando is still pulling away as if everyone is standing still.
I don’t actually know this if ai teams R&d follows the same paths or not. But it’s possible for a lower ranked team to be faster depending on it’s r&d path.
Just for an example. One team could have all brake upgrades that would push that team up the performance rankings without actually making it faster. Compared to a team with the same value in weight reduction
At the end of my first season starting around Singapore McLaren had the fourth best car but Lando was able to get two wins, three second places, and a third along with earning two Fastest Laps in races.
Yeah Lando is insanely quick in my career as well. He's moved to Alpine end of the first season and it qualifying like 3-5th in the 5th best car. Ocon is where the team would expect to be.
