UNREALISTIC CAR PERFORMANCES.

EA_Groguet​  Can we have an update on this asap. It's a rather irritating immersion and game breaking issue,

Admin can we have an update on this please and if an update is coming to the game as it does seems the ranking of the cars is wrong compared to their performance in races.
williams 3rd slowest in the ranking yet the car is better than that, also aston is quicker than cadillac, and the audi is dog slow when its quicker than the haas and only just behind the alpine EA_Groguet​ 

Bumping to agree, and desperately hoping that they patch the car performance. It's like the driver ratings are overriding the car performance or something.

In my first two races in my 2026 career save I experienced the following...
Starting grid in Australia had Williams P7 and P8, Stroll P13, Audi P16 and P17, Racing Bulls at P18* and P21* (Linblad got a penalty so he started P22, Lawson started P20.)

Starting Grid in Bahrain had Williams P8 and P10 yet again. Why??? They should barely be making it out of Q3, if at all. Same with Aston, Alonso qualified P12, and Racing Bulls yet again P16, and P22* (Penalty for the driver in P22). Even Haas was uncharacteristically low in P21 with Bearman, yet Ocon was P11???

This is with whatever patch was applied as well for the mid-season ratings updates, but it seems like Racing Bulls/Audi got what Aston Martin/Williams should've gotten. The graphs are correct, showing that, yes, Williams, Aston Martin, and Cadillac are the bottom three teams. So why are the whole field within 2.5 seconds of the lead time??? Clearly there's something off here.

How is this not getting more attention? I've literally gone back to my 2025 career mode because 2026 career car/driver pace is so broken.

In my 2026 career (first year), Aston Martin are dead last on the performance graph, and by a big margin, yet they are both constantly making Q2 and Fernando is often getting into the top 10 in the race. Lando Norris usually gets pole and the win, while Russell is usually off of the podium and Antonelli is usually only a few places into the top 10. Williams, despite being 3rd worst, are usually making it to Q3 and getting a few points each race.

If they buffed Merc and nerfed Williams and Aston Martin. Then improve the driver rating of Antonelli, Hamilton, Lawson, Gasly and Lindblad, the grid order would be perfect. I really don't know they managed to not notice these issues in the development stage. They are so obvious and fundamnetally annoying.

The Audi team always qualify on the back off the grid very anoying and unjoyable 

Antonelli's stats need updating immediately. He's virtually 6th or below every race i do.
