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
