So my friend and I both got this game for free on the PS5 and have been having a blast playing with it. Trying to see who can successfully remove their assists the fastest while still finishing, etc.

Anyway the question is, my friend is the second player in our career and he has no contribution to the tech tree? Like the points HE earned in practice don't matter and he has no say in what gets upgraded. Is that normal or are we missing something? Its a lot less fun for him now that he knows his practice sessions don't matter.

We don't normally play racing games so maybe its something obvious, or just working as intended. Thanks you the help!

Forced to flair. Meme made the most sense lol

I made a new one since I got flamed so much on my last one. I know a couple of these aren’t f1 games but I’m basing them off the formula 1 cars they have in game. Yes, I have played all of these. Why is F124 so low?, It had atrocious handling and I was playing with a controller.

I wanted to try out some track mods, like Malaysia and Mugello. Is it possible to play online with a friend and race together if we both have the same mods installed?

I buy this livery but I can´t use this livery because I can't find it. So, could you help me figure out what it’s about?

every time I make a wheel input it freezes and crashes but it works with out the wheel

Replay made me so angry

Just wasted an hour of my life in Singapore in F1 23 to end P2 after a rough battle and move up to first in the drivers standings only to press restart instead of replay.

Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to just have that go straight back into the race without any further confirmation and not confirm it especially in my team / career mode with just a simple are you sure button after such a long time…

I can tolerate an engine failure in the last lap, that’s part of the game and part of real life, but man who designed the restart button to do this shit, I can’t believe it, I’m just gonna crash into title contenders and call it still level on points and go to next one…

Sorry just needed to vent

I just recently started my career in F2 and I noticed that they send you off into qualifying with like 10 laps of fuel and no way to edit the fuel load to make it smaller? The AI will be laps almost 2 seconds faster than me because I assume they have lower fuel loads? By the time I do enough laps during quali to get the fuel load low enough for about 2ish laps my tires are shot every time, pretty frustrating.. Is there a workaround for this? Just lower the Ai difficulty?

For most of this year I've been developing a custom 3D and physics engine for racing sims. This is it running inside my port of Grand Prix 2, by the legendary Geoff Crammond. To whom, EA owe so much.

The dev blog

So now, GP2 gets to go goblin mode - 4K 120fps, classic 4:3 or widescreen, with proper wheel and pedal support and even VR coming later.

Enjoy!

What do you guys think? Do you think it would provide better racing? Like would people race cleaner and more cautiously?

Picked up the 25 game free on PS plus, spent 5 minutes trying to start a quick race, kept getting bombarded by annoying voices telling me what to press and to sign up for fan zones and season passes etc etc.... deleted game. No idea what the gameplay was like, don't care. Games for people who hate gaming.

Feel free to roast my team livery and racegear in the process

(Im pretty new to f1, started playing game for the first time last year in december, here i had only ABS turned off, will be slowly turning off more assists. And yes was listening to that one song from edits).

I’m more biased towards the ones I’ve played with the exception of F124.
These ones I’ve played are F12010, F12020, F123, F124, F125, F1 Mobile Racing

Which games should I try next?

I have been playing 50% of career mode. I started strugling with pitstop. Sometimes when i lead and have a 15 seconds gap, anytime i pit i basically lose the race. I pit first i lose and i pit second i still lose.

There's a mandatory pitstop. I lost a race to Norris where he pitted only once whereas i was forced to pit twice. And happened again two races later. I didn't understand.

Am i doing something wrong here ? Everytime i pit, i lose basically. I play on 75 difficulty.

Also i hate those scripted Redflags. No matter how much you play again the same thing happens. The most weird one for me was the Miami GP where there was a scripted Rain but Sainz everytime i restarted the race was top 3.

Depois de ver muitos overlays pagos, decidi fazer um gratuito para todos.

É só baixar, executar e configurar.

Espero que gostem!

Hello r/RaceTrackDesigns! Buckle up, because I want to share the absolute final, pulse-pounding evolution of my passion project built on Lapwerks: **TANNENWALDRING SCHWARZWALD**. This isn't just a race track. This is a massive, shackle-breaking **10.43 kilometer German Endurance Titan** designed to push modern Formula 1 and GT3 aerodynamics into absolute overdrive! Deep within the ruthless terrain of the Black Forest, it features a technical **21-turn layout** that will chew up your tyres, test your survival instincts, and demand total, unflinching focus. Here is the high-octane, step-by-step lap breakdown of this battlefield: 🏁 **SECTOR 1: THE ACCELERATION PHASE** * **Race Start (Lap 1):** You launch from the grid into a fierce, raw 550-600 meter sprint straight into Turn 1 with DRS completely disabled. Pure chaos! * **The 1080m Flying Blast (Lap 2+):** On a flying lap, you scream over the Radillion crest into a massive 1080-meter straight line at **360+ km/h**! DRS 1 stays wide open for 980 meters of pure terror. But watch out—you MUST snap the DRS wing closed exactly 100 meters before Turn 1 to slam maximum downforce back onto the chassis, or you will launch into the trees! * **T1 & T2 (The Double-Banking G-Trap):** You don't brake heavily here! You throw the car into a massive right-hand corner with unique double-banking, instantly flicking into a high-speed left-hand banked curve. Suspension compression is absolute violence! * **DRS 2 & The Sharp Flick:** You settle the car, open DRS 2 on the back stretch, then stand on the brakes for a heavy-braking right-hand turn, immediately followed by a rapid-fire left flick as you head toward the mountain. 🌀 **SECTOR 2: THE TYRE MONSTER & THE SWEAKING ARC** * **T5 (The Hairpin):** You drop down into 1st gear for a tight, technical hairpin demanding millimeter-level apex precision. One lock-up here ruins the whole lap. * **T6 - T12 (The Logo S-Chicanes):** Blindingly fast left-hand sweepers wrapping perfectly around the inner logo section, colliding straight into a rapid, hyper-intense left-right-left-right rhythmic chicane complex. Total tyre torture and non-stop steering reaction! * **T13 - T14 (The Rocket Launcher):** Out of the chicanes, a tiny straight patch leads into back-to-back right-hand banked corners (T13/T14), compressing the aero and launching you like a missile onto the next phase. * **THE MONSTER (T14 - T15):** Hold your breath! A jaw-dropping **1634-meter flat-out sweeping right-hand arc with DRS 3 fully open**. You are flying sideways at 350+ km/h under massive, relentless G-forces. 🎢 **SECTOR 3: BLIND BRAKING & THE HISTORIC FINISH** * **COTA T1 Extreme (T15):** Right at the end of that 1.6 km flight, you slam the brakes for a blind, steep uphill heavy braking zone. You cross the 50m board marker and pray the front tyres bite! * **T16 - T18 (The Lower Banking):** You descend with speed through a sweepy left, throwing the car into the T17/T18 lower double-banking to stabilize the violent chassis vibrations. * **The Kerb-Riding Transition:** A smooth right-left flick where you don't even steer—you just launch the car straight over the flat kerbs at full throttle! * **T19 (The Silverstone Woodcote Sweep):** Instantly carrying that kerb-riding momentum, you attack Turn 19—a massive, high-speed flowing right-hander inspired by Silverstone's iconic Woodcote approach, before immediately diving into a brutal braking chicane. * **T20 - T21 (The Ridge of Gods):** You exit the final chicane, plunge downhill gathering massive kinetic energy, and smash right into the bottom compression of a legendary uphill *Eau Rouge & Radillion* variation! The car snaps left, right, and leaps violently over the blind crest. * **The Final Sprint:** You pop over the hill, lock your eyes on a dramatic **480-meter home straight**, and scream all the way to the chequered flag! ⏱️ **LAP RECORD UPDATE:** I pushed the car to its absolute, ragged edge on my ASUS notebook against my own ghost car and officially shattered the lap time down to a blistering **2:15.092**! (Based on real-world F1 scaling, a simulated pro run in an advanced physics engine would sit around 2:34.xx). 🛠️ **CALLING ALL 3D MODDERS:**

I snagged F125 on PS Plus the other day. I'm 2.2k on iRacing for open wheel series so I'm familiar with a lot of F1 circuits, and was excited to hot lap them from the couch.

I found that I needed to completely disable trigger haptics on PS5 to drive competently. With the haptics on I couldn't trail brake at all and was always triggering TCS out of hairpins because delicate inputs felt possible. That clicky, pushy haptic sensation just felt arbitrary and inconsistent. It was helpful for learning the limits for braking hard, initially, but I feel like the normal controller vibration plays a part in that also. That or I just dialed in.

Is this common advice for PS controller players? If not I'm just going to shout it from the rooftops for a bit. If you've plateaued give it a shot.. press the PS button, go to the controller settings and set the trigger haptics to be completely off.
