In the MyTeam Career Mode, in Practice, with my Car being improved to the point it's now between the midfield Teams (Haas, Williams, Alpine, etc) and the Top Team (Ferrari, McLaren, etc) , the Qualifying Sim Practice Programme has started asking me for impossible times.
I could be hurtling down a Straight with ERS Overtake mode on and still be losing time.
And the actual lap time itself would actual be quite good. For example, at Qatar, I was about over 1.1 seconds down on my Time in the Programme. And yet I'm about a second faster than Lewis Hamilton in the Ferrari. And in this MyTeam Save, Ferrari are the 3rd Best Team. And a lot better than my Team. And I'm playing against 100 Difficulty AI.
I had a similar problem at Brazil and only barely cleared the time Vegas in Full Wet conditions.
But in general, as the car gets better, I feel like the Times the game asks for can get ridiculous. Especially for more casual players like myself.
If this could get patched in a future update so that the Lap times the Qualifying Sim aren't as demanding, that would be great. Maybe try and make it so they only ask for a time that would be good enough to get you 10th at least, rather than a time good enough for 1st. (Or in this case, too good for 1st)
