F1 25 – F1 World Car Extremely Slow Despite High Technical Level

Hello,

I play F1 25 via Steam, mainly in online invitational events.
For some time now, my F1 World car has been performing extremely poorly despite having a technical level of over 870.

When I first started at level 100, the car was slow, which I expected. However, as I progressed to level 250–300, I noticed a significant improvement in speed and performance. By around level 500, it became very easy to beat the AI, set new time trial records, and regularly compete for victories.

Since reaching approximately level 500, my car’s performance has drastically declined. Even after progressing to nearly level 900, I can no longer compete for podium finishes and struggle to score points. AI opponents with much lower technical levels easily overtake me, and human players with far lower levels sometimes lap up to 8 seconds faster per lap.

Lap times I previously achieved are now completely out of reach. I am consistently 5–6 seconds slower than before, despite my car’s technical level only increasing.
When testing in Time Trial mode with the official F1 cars and my F1 World car, I achieve much better times in Time Trial than I do with my F1 World car in other game modes — whereas it used to be the opposite.

It now feels as though my F1 World car is not accelerating to 100%, making it undriveable and as slow as it was back at level 100.

I have thoroughly checked my hardware and confirmed it is working correctly. I have also:

Changed all car parts

Reinstalled the game

Deleted my local save files

Tested in offline mode

Created a new Windows profile

Unfortunately, none of these steps resolved the issue.
I suspect that my F1 World profile or cloud save may be corrupted.

Could you please fully reset my F1 World profile or delete my cloud save so I can start over in a clean environment?
Any assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

JamsKng

  • Looks like car boost are actually not boost, but negatives for the car. It does not apply to everyone, but for me and some of my friends it does. The fix is to take a new component you don't want and apply it to your car, then dismantle that component so no component is selected. Now you havea level 500 car, but it is on the straights at least 20 km/h faster than with the components.

    Indeed until level 500, it's ok. Over 500, it's exactly the same performance as level 100. Just like there's no component at all. 

    So what's the point of F1 World if you can't upgrade ? Why continue ?

    Useless...
