The AI straight line speed is absolutely absurd. I can have DRS and dump the entire battery running 0-0 wings and still not overtake or be able to defend. it was the same on launch for either F123 o...

Hi everyone,
I've run into a serious issue in F1 25's Driver Career Mode:
Even with a fully upgraded engine, I’m being massively outpaced on the straights by the AI – up to 15 km/h slower, with no ERS or DRS involved.
Example: In Suzuka, I hit ~311 km/h with a 25/22 wing setup, while the AI easily reaches 325+ km/h.
This makes the mode unbalanced and takes the fun out of racing – especially on higher difficulties, where I just get passed on every straight with no chance to defend after a bit of time it just gets annoying.
My Setup:
Fully upgraded power unit
No DRS
ERS set to medium
25/22 wings
AI difficulty tested from 95 to 103– always the same issue
If anyone else is experiencing this, please leave a comment or upvote, so it gets some visibility. I would be really grateful
EA, please take a look at this – I really hope this can be addressed in a future patch!
Thanks in advance!
Hi again! I just wanted to ask if the recent patch made any changes regarding the engine performance issue I reported. Unfortunately, I can't test it myself during the week, so I’d really appreciate any confirmation or update from the team. Thanks a lot in advance! 🙏
I'm not sure what patch you are referring to as they haven't released a new patch yet, but you will be able to find the patch notes in the link below, as well as the list of things they are looking into for future patches.

Hey, thanks for the clarification. Since there’s been no patch yet, I’ll wait a bit longer. Just hoping the devs are aware of the top speed / engine balance issue in Career Mode. It really ruins the experience for some of us. Im sorry i thought a patch came out today. Thats what i heard.
