are you kidding me? why is that? why use two different versions? what about people who want to train for league? i'm glad i left for iracing, but i love f1 and i don't like what is being done with f1 esports with this game

I maybe wrong but when they ALL played at the Venue they didn't have the extra build and you can thank Covid for that. This is about connection issues more than anythig else iirc. One important difference is how pitstops operate I believe, with them all taking the same time and being held by other cars not happening. We added this in F1 2021, and it's in F1 22 as well - when creating a lobby in Social Play, set it to 'Expert', then go to 'Simulation Settings', and then toggle 'Unsafe Pit Release' on.

Why is it a problem? Fundamentally it's a stripped down version without single player modes, life etc from what I hear. Handling, physics are meant to be the same? How does it make it difficult for those who want to train for leagues? It likely has a more robust server. Why so much displeasure?

@Wollcott I suspect it's more complex than you suggest.

@TotosHeadphonesBecause humph😝

We have a lesser version of the game? F1 Esports uses another build?

@Wollcott Dont forget. The game is basically 7 years old.

Below is Alex Gillon's video I was remembering but I've not watched it through again now to check exactly what he says.

@Stampede_251 something I found super odd, is the fact that the Esports version has the horrible onboard audio issue, whilst the public build doesn't - at least in some cases. See WOR from this week:

I still can't believe they're letting this go for 2 months now, because that bug is very cringeworthy. Imagine being Domenicali or Brawn and watching F1 Esports live, and this is what you're putting out there as the official F1 gaming series.
