Automatic Gearbox Performance Issue in Rainy Conditions – F1 25 ---

---

> I'm experiencing a serious gameplay issue with the automatic gearbox in F1 25, specifically in wet weather conditions. The automatic transmission behaves poorly and shifts gears too early, even when it shouldn’t.

For example, during high-speed driving in the rain (e.g. 270 km/h), the gearbox shifts into 8th gear far too early, which negatively affects performance. Additionally, under braking — especially while cornering — the gearbox does not downshift properly or aggressively enough, causing poor acceleration out of corners.

This creates a significant performance gap between players using manual gears and those using automatic, especially in competitive online races.

Please investigate and consider improving the automatic gearbox behavior in wet conditions in a future patch.

Thank you

  • I use auto gears as well and I have the same issue, basically it upshifts too early for the high gears but it doesn't downshift until you realise the brakes, causing me to lose the car on entry or to go very deep

    I recorded it because it pisses me off not being able to play wet conditions on this game with this issue that has been on the game since the launch of the game

    Thank you for saying this! I’m having the same issues. It either goes up too quickly or down too quickly. It ruins the fun and makes it even harder to race. The banker in China is just proof of how ridiculous it is at the moment. The AI are going full throttle meanwhile I can’t even have 60% input without spinning the car around. Wet weather game play is HORRIBLE with auto heats. They need to fix it!

    I'm also having this issue, the peak power is never reached because of the short shifting using automatic gearbox in the wet.

    EA_Groguet Can you please raise this game breaking issue to the team? The short shifts using the automatic gearbox in WET conditions has completely broken the game. The AI just fly past you on the straights due to the gearbox short shifting all the time.
