Mercedes is flying

# fleet plank Have you got any podiums

lewis has podiums in every race so far, one p2 and the rest p3. george has one podium, been pretty unlucky with safety car timings in the chances he’s had but he’s been P4 for the most part

we’re challenging ferrari atm

the merc pit crew is awful but we’re into the 2.3s range now heading into monaco

we don’t really look like challenging RB right now sadly

late red flag really benefits russell who was a few laps from his stop and outscores hamilton for the first time this year, the 100% podium streak is over though. another red flag with 5 laps to go made it a shootout but we didn't have the pace to challenge leclerc or the RB's

don't think he even finished below 2nd until this race

think my target of beating AM was a bit too easy

they've got easily the 2nd fastest car though it's just stroll bottling

yea once you figure out the strategy and upgrading its actually pretty easy on some races

stroll is actually so good in my save

2023 got 2 podiums also won the baku sprint

then in 2024

#

got 6 podiums to alonsos 5

the only thing of note he's done in my save so far is get a fastest lap

and got a win in austria before alonso won 2 races later

riccardo went to alpha on his own in 2024 for me

well the thing is f1 manager is supposed to be your own universe of f1 or whatever

the last f1 game i really enjoyed was 2020

I really enjoyed 2021 but only because that was my first F1 game

2021 wasn't awful i guess it was just kinda lacklustre to me after how good 20 was

also i dont think 21 had classic cars?

unfortunately not

yeah i love the classic car feature they really need to revive it

I hope they have at least a couple of classics in F124

I really want a game with F3 cars

they're probably too focused on f1 world

true

i'd love a career mode with like F4-F3-F2-F1

broo

#

that would be sick

odd talon

project cars had like karting and stuff i think that's the closest i've seen to it

but just going through developmental to get to F1 is something i'd love

#

getting signed with driver academies and stuff too

dim kite
#

big moves for 2025 in the driver market
leclerc replaces perez in rb
russell replaces leclerc in ferrari
i guess lewis retired so ocon and albon go to mercedes
kmag replaces ocon at alpine
mick replaces albon at williams
logan and devries go from free agent to haas
asack hadjar goes to alpha
alonso retires so fricking theo pourchaire goes to aston

heavy shoal
#

codies would be so overwhelmed

odd talon
#

if they shifted focus from the weird f1 world stuff it’d probably be doable

#

i mean they already kinda have the F2-F1 transition

heavy shoal
#

yea

dim kite
#

perez lewis and fernando didnt retire they just got dropped

heavy shoal
#

tbh f4 would be cool but i'd be more interested in f3-f2-f1

go the full distance and add karting at 8 years old

#

maybe they planned for some codenmasters f1 type of stuff

odd talon
#

maybe

dim kite
#

so despite literally researching ever since the summer break last season

#

i come up with this car

odd talon
#

what the fuck is a kilometre 🦅

#

i mean at least mclaren can get out of bahrain Q1 this time

#

i say thats improvement

heavy shoal
#

LOGAN IN Q2

dim kite
#

logan is actually good on f1 manager

#

better than piastri

odd talon
#

yeah he's great

#

still getting slapped by albon but albon is the goat

#

alfa romeo improvement looks good though

#

they're atrocious at the start

dim kite
#

mick just crashed into sainz and caused a red flag

odd talon
#

i see he still has no short name

dim kite
#

maybe pace is better than what i thought but not going back out

#

merc have actually made in improvement

odd talon
#

where were they in 24

dim kite
#

yea noone went back out so im in q3 lmao

#

they were 6th i think

odd talon
#

jesus

dim kite
odd talon
#

final upgrades of the season then full focus on research for 24 lets go

#

williams 52 points is huge though wtf

dim kite
#

yea albon went crazy

#

yuki had like 1 point

odd talon
#

😭

dim kite
#

also kmag carried haas

odd talon
#

yuki's great on this save

#

even frauded a fastest lap at monaco

#

oh boy

#

i'm not keeping mick on he's wasted as a reserve

#

the rest might be bad though

dim kite
#

i didnt even realise leclerc got 15th 💀

#

but if stroll is only 1 tenth off max

#

aston prob have the best car

#

got a surprised 8th out of no where

#

but merc had big improvement

#

even with a worse driver lineup

#

also alfa were 10th last year

#

huge for them

#

and leclerc spun out first lap so his 20th

#

max 1.8 second lead on lap 2 but hes on softs stroll and russell are on mediums

primal drift
#

the only non Mercedes win was me winning the Qatar Sprint blankstare

#

results of the first season of my sim only career

dim kite
#

@odd talon does the db editor affect all saves or just one

odd talon
#

just one

#

you basically drag the save file you want to edit into the DB editor folder (make a backup too), edit it then drag it back into where it was when you're finished

#

ferrari 1-2 for the sprint, maybe red bull bottlejob is on after all=

#

not good news for us if they've gained this much time in quali since they're our rivals now though

dim kite
#

couldve maybe gotten points with lando but he had a big lockup so lost a lot of tire wear

#

i was doing full push the whole entire race

#

hard to mediums was 100% possible even full pushing

#

no vcs or scs

#

pace not too good tho

#

my season objective went from 6th last season to 2nd this season 💀

odd talon
#

pretty good sprint result, leclerc led every lap then spun it with 2 laps to go

dim kite
#

im going to just sacrifice this whole season for next year

#

have to

odd talon
#

haas 2021 vibes

dim kite
#

yea

#

i cant belive ive gone backwards

#

i mean

#

im better at this start of the season than last start

#

but i was researching since the summber break

#

and i am worse than i was end of last season

odd talon
#

i feel like they've improved how the AI do upgrades

#

so maybe that factors into it

dim kite
#

yea

#

not sure if im doing anything wrong tho

#

i left everything balanced or optimised aerodynamics

odd talon
#

what i've started doing from austria is one design and one research at a time

#

then from spa onwards i'll fully shift to research

dim kite
#

did it work well

odd talon
#

no clue yet, havent finished S1

#

although i think designing on intense will help if you don't do that already

#

since it improves part expertise

dim kite
#

ooo oscar and lando are p11 and p10 practice 1 in saudi which i simulated

#

my acceleration is really good along with dirty air tolerance

odd talon
#

did you stick with the merc engine

dim kite
#

also the weight is the best out of all teams so i wonder if that has anything to do with tire wear

dim kite
odd talon
#

mclaren-ferrari sounds weird

dim kite
#

yea i thought it was just best way to go

#

reliability was good couldve gone whole saeson basically only needing 1 extra ers

primal drift
#

can you still cheese the game like last year?

dim kite
#

wdym cheese

odd talon
#

not really

#

there's a tyre temp exploit right now but they're gonna patch it like they did with the design sliders glitch

#

naturally you can just choose not to do it though lmao

dim kite
#

whats the exploit

odd talon
#

iirc you set tyres to full push then enable avoid kerbs in the tactics menu

dim kite
#

also i never realised they fixed the design sliders glitch if your talking about last game cuz i always did everything to the right and it was good

odd talon
#

i don't think they ever fully got rid of it but they 100% nerfed it

dim kite
#

also q1 in jeddah oscar p11 lando p10

#

looking good

odd talon
#

i tested it with williams and with one underfloor i was making top 10

dim kite
#

i feel like you cant do that anymore

odd talon
#

yeah last game

#

you cant do it anymore but you can lower durability to boost stats

#

turns out to be way more expensive with replacing them constantly though

dim kite
#

also what do u do for quali laps

#

i set my drivers to do 2 laps at a time

#

i think that works the best

#

they always improve second lap

#

almost every time

odd talon
#

i just do manual warmup since right now automatic is really weak which they're also patching thankfully

#

i don't do the 2 lap thing since it feels a bit cheesy

#

i tried it with the mclaren save and purple sector 1's in a backmarker car didnt feel right lmao

dim kite
#

how it cheesy

#

i dont get purple sectors lmao

#

i get normal lap times

odd talon
#

weird

dim kite
#

just they always better than first

#

i dunno how this happened

odd talon
#

beautiful

#

double stack of dreams

dim kite
#

what

#

stroll pole

#

theo p3 second race

#

norris destroyed piastri somehow i honestly dont know how

#

i did same thing for both drivers

#

i tried the manual warm up instead of letting both of them do 2 laps

odd talon
#

yeah manual is closer to how it's meant to be

#

automatic is really weak

dim kite
#

yo

#

theo takes the lead t1 lap 2

#

on the softs

#

everyone else behind on mediums

steel current
#

Bro I’m going to get fired from McLaren because Piastri has put me about 15 mil in debt by blowing my cars up 4 times

dim kite
#

ofc another max win was inevitable

#

theo on podium tho 2nd race

#

oscar couldve gotten points if he just had the tire wear lando had to push whole race mediums to hards

odd talon
#

rip fernando

dim kite
#

yea

steel current
# dim kite yea

Has Oscar blown up your cars 40 times too or is it just me

odd talon
#

its not just you lmao

#

happened in my mclaren save too

dim kite
steel current
#

He’s literally put me into so much debt

dim kite
steel current
#

He dnf’d 3 races in a row

dim kite
#

i guess acceleration is insane for jeddah and weight

been way better

odd talon
#

verstappen hamilton 1-2 behind safety car, lapped cars message comes up

#

ptsd

steel current
#

I’m not going to make it to 2024 at this rate

dim kite
#

not crashes but lots of lockups and spins

#

yea i went into debt a couple times 2023

steel current
#

I’m projected over the cost cap, im in debt, and I’ve got two tractors

dim kite
#

you just cant emergency manufacture a lot and cant rush a lot of stuff

#

just do normal on stuff

steel current
#

I have good parts available but I can’t afford to make them

#

Plus every time I get out of debt, piastri explodes another 6 parts

odd talon
#

need a god tier restart from lewis for the win here

#

5 lap shootout to the end

dim kite
#

i remember on f1 manager i got a win with mercedes 2022 in australia

#

first season

odd talon
#

yeah aus was my first merc win too

#

took me to canada this time and thats only because of a crash lmao

steel current
#

I had a championship winning Mclaren by 2023 in last years game, because they made development too easy and I didn’t realise until i had Norris winning every race

odd talon
#

hamilton takes the lead with 3 laps to go

#

siuu

dim kite
#

yea i won with williams 2023 easily

#

bottas was op that game

#

so i signed him beginning of first season

steel current
#

Stroll seems to be OP in qualifying this year

odd talon
#

terrifying

#

huuuuge

dim kite
#

i almost got a win with alonso so many times with aston

#

which was my first save i had learning the game

#

@odd talon i think taking manual control and pushing the tires gives you too fast of times

#

i have this car

#

now not sure if the weight and acceleration is doing like all the work

#

but

#

these times in q1 and q2

#

although norris on his last q2 run got a perfect slipstream

odd talon
#

slipstream is really OP so that probably contributed a lot

dim kite
#

well look at q3

#

idk how im getting these times

I’m putting everything I have on Lando Norris to hope he can save my job

I just need a strong finish in these last 5 races, and I’ll be safe (I hope)

wet silverstone race, run it back to 2008

Actually qualified P19 and P20….

I’m so fired

I’m just forced to use crap parts because cost cap won’t allow me to manufacture more and Piastri broke all my good parts

this would be crazy

it got passed because red bull voted for it

he's had some really poor races lately

started off winning all of them then canada him and perez came together and we got a 1-2

Did you box

didn't need to

tyres are fine

What tire

odd talon

mediums for lewis hards for george

#

waiting on the rain period

fleet plank

Should have pitted George

#

More grip for crossover

odd talon

true

fleet plank
#

Is it too late?

odd talon
#

both alpines are top 6 now hulk just span

#

yeah it's too late rn

fleet plank
#

Damn it

#

Did he have a new soft?

odd talon
#

yeah both have one new soft

fleet plank
#

Should have pitted Russell

#

That might screw you

odd talon
#

he's got good pace on the hard that was the only reason i kept him out

keen brook
#

The mid-season driver transfers are insane.

odd talon
#

track position priority like a real mercedes strategist

odd talon
#

most of the people in front are on worn softs already

fleet plank
#

You’re really not losing track position

odd talon
#

i doubt the softs will make it to the crossover intact

#

like 40% already for some of them and none pitted

fleet plank
#

What Russell’s fastest lap on the hard

odd talon
#

47.5

fleet plank
#

What track Austria?

odd talon
#

wait no 47.3

#

spa

#

he's consistently doing 47.5 and the soft runners infront are on 47.6 or a little higher

fleet plank
#

What’s Lewis fastest lap on medium

odd talon
#

45.8

fleet plank
#

K that’s concerning mediums are better

#

Way better

#

Is anyone on fresh mediums behind you

odd talon
#

nope

#

nobody's boxed yet

fleet plank
#

Who’s behind you what tire

#

For Russell

odd talon
#

all far slower cars

#

except maybe the williams on the straight but we kill them in corners

fleet plank
#

I’m worried about 15-20

#

George needs to put his foot down

odd talon
#

hulk just locked up so his softs are dead at least

#

ricciardo and bottas are in the two slowest cars so the tyre advantage isn't gonna make up loads for them

fleet plank
#

Is it back green

odd talon
#

yeah

fleet plank
#

ETA on rain?

odd talon
#

around 5-6 laps

fleet plank
#

Full wet or inter

odd talon

inters to the end it looks like

fleet plank
#

K DO NOT STACK

#

Unless you have a good gap

odd talon
#

there's like 30 seconds between george and lewis

fleet plank
#

That’s enough

#

That’s 8 seconds incase it’s a bad stop for Lewis

odd talon
#

yeah should be fine

keen brook
#

Going into Hungary the packing order hasn't changed.

odd talon
#

the top 4 have a very decent gap too

fleet plank
#

Is George gaining spots

odd talon
#

ocon is 13 seconds off leclerc in p4

#

yeah george is p9 and closing in on p8

fleet plank
#

Tell Lewis it’s hammer time

odd talon
#

then once he clears p8 he has around 8 seconds to sainz in p7

fleet plank
#

He’s gotta go

keen brook

I still can't say all the driver transfers as I can't see who joined the grid.

lewis is moving dw

1.5 seconds quicker than george last lap

Rain ETA

odd talon
#

3 laps

#

lewis got a good gap to leclerc now too

keen brook
#

Hopefully I can see it now after FP1.

#

Otherwise I have to wait until quali to see who joined the grid.

odd talon
#

george cleared yuki for p8 also

#

think it'll stay this way until the rain hits

Should show

keen brook

nope

There's only 1 driver grayed out.

Who is it
