Battery Management in Time Trial
EA_Groguet I know your going to be busy chasing down bugs for a while but when the dev team gets a chance here's a suggestion. Given how critical managing the battery is in these regulations, give us a toggle in time trial mode (like the one for equal performance) so that the battery isn't always locked at 100%. This way we can practice different deployment strategies and see what works best. Currently the best way to do this is to start a race in grand prix mode but there's a lot of other variables in play in that situation (tyres / fuel / other cars) which makes it a bit more difficult to judge performance.
Cockpit Wheel Screen Info
Simple really... there needs to be something on the wheel LCD that communicates when I, the driver, am in 'Overtake' mode. As it stands, I have to guess whether or not I have it activated. Bit of an oversight tbh So I'm requesting, hopefully on behalf of all cockpit drivers, that a change is made. Something like turning the battery bar Blue, like the OSD has for the T-Cam drivers, would be appreciated.
Downshifting
I checked the forum and couldn't find anything about this. Asked all my guys in our league to make sure it wasn't just me having this issue. What physics were changed for downshifting aggressively at high rpms/speed? Example, I'm coming into a corner, braking lightly and downshifting quickly, but the gears don't go down to where I wanted them to be. They'll get stuck it seems. Say around 3rd-4th depending on how fast slow. I thought my paddles weren't working right. That said I did do some trial and error. If speeds/rpms are not high, I can go from 8th to 2nd quickly. If at speed and rpms up over say 10.5k ish, it will only allow a few gears down until speed drops. Is this something that changed? If so, what are the parameters for the rpm/shifting? I thought it may be because I was on TC. Seems that is not the case because others in my league are not using TC and still have that hesitation. Can anyone elaborate on this?Glad you haven’t fixed wet weather…
Please give us the option to turn off wet weather. I don’t want to turn off wet weather, I like variable weather and the strategy it brings, but the AI is still so very unbalanced in wet weather that it’s really not fun at all. The AI is still rocketing off corners like it’s dry while I’m driving on ice and spinning the wheels in 6th and 7th gear trying to get any form of grip. So, if you have no intention of balancing the AI in wet weather please let us at least turn it off in career mode.
Beep/Notification for DRS and S mode
Now that the 2026 pack has released and that S mode is always available under the current 2026 regulations, would there be a possibility to add an option under the Audio Settings / Audio Assists, similar to the Upshift Tone to remove the DRS/S mode beep ? Or, if the user choose to have the DRS/S mode "assist on" to not play the beep regardless ? Much appreciated !
