Final Q3 Results:

#

Lap 10 check-in, things are fucking crazy right now.

#

Verstappen has a major mechanical issue.

#

It seems like the title fight in F2 will be between Gabi and Kimi.

#

both my affiliateswillmao

#

So whoever wins the title gets the seat.

#

alongside Isack

#

I let Zane's contract expire.

#

I little bit of change in the line-up can never harm.willmao

#

Hamilton has crashed out.

#

This is huge for Crawford.

#

He stayed out long...he may even come out in P3 here.

#

He does!

#

P3 and P5 currently. It would be unbelievable if we manage this result.

#

HERE WE GO.

#

Verstappen with a Terminal issue.

#

He's out.

#

Things didn't go our way in the end.

#

P7 and P10.

#

Plus, there was contact between Sargeant and Crawford which gave Crawford minor Front Wing damage, and by that point it was over.

F1 game AIs when they damage their front wing: immediately pits for a new wing

Going into the qualifying, Isack needs now his 4th engine.

#

OK, I think the 4th engine for whatever reason gives a penalty.

Isn't normally 3 the engine limit?

Why is then a 4th available?

only yellow falg because they are still going

#

ok wtf

#

whenever bearman goes down the inside of turn 7 he always fails to overtake there because the other car gets a better exit

#

but zhou just did that and he got an amazing exit even while bearman was on full push and battery

#

its weird because we have a better car than audi (i have the audi mod installed for kick sauber)

#

OK WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK

#

ZHOU JUST DID WHAT VERSTAPPEN DID IN BRAZIL 2021

#

TO BEARMAN

#

THIS IS A FUCKING JOKE

#

he doesnt get a penalty either even though they made contact

#

bearman fucking spun it

#

the confidence system sucks so bad

if your driver gets overtaken or make a mistake they lose confidence and fall down a spiral

worn forge
#

why did they send back the soft tyres

keen brook
#

They always do.

#

If no slick tire is used, they give Softs back 1st.

#

That's why you must drive out with a dry tire for at least 1 lap, even if it rains.

#

So that it has wear and this one will be given back.

#

So in that case at least 1 lap with the Medium would've been needed.

nobody's tried to poach my drivers either lmao

And the problem is, Zane's race engineer is gone already.

Ferrari poached him.

together with my technical chief

And Alpine poached my head of aero.

Zane's race engineer also had a contract for another year.

same for the technical chief

But Ferrari doesn't care, they poach them anyway.

If someone has neutral morale, the stats match the overall.

If not, they don't.

I needed a while to notice that.

I 1st also thought it's a bug.

Then I noticed they fluctuate with changing mentality.

floral apex
#

makes sense

brazen nebula

LETS GO

my guys are going wheel to wheel

So only on neutral mentality you see the actual stats.

#

And they match the overall.

The overall doesn't get affected by mentality.

Wait and why has AWS Pirelli as logo?willmao

floral apex
#

might be one of the sponsor mods that has like 80 or something

where the "colored" logo doesnt match the "silhouette" logo

#

that undercut worked surprisingly well

#

damn it Correa

#

damn that newer tire advantage is real

#

Since i had Leclerc on a two stopper he has fresher tires than the drivers that went for one stoppers

#

what in the driver market happened here

#

hulkenberg and kmag both moved to RB

#

ocon and sargeant to audi

#

zhou and russell to haas

#

albon and ricciardo to mercedes

#

hamilton to ferrari

#

sainz to red bull

#

tsunoda and bottas at alpine

#

pourchaire and gasly at williams

#

expectations are around q2

#

since out car is 13th and 14th fastest

#

worryingly nobody has gone slower yet

#

so we did revert back to season 1

#

great

#

and i accidentally sent them out too late

#

FUCK

a whole second off the pace as well

this is williams 2019 or even haas 2021

THIS HAPPENED ON A SAFETY CAR RESTART

#

p7 and p14 in round 1

#

not too bad

floral apex
#

what is happening here

#

it looks like its going to be raining the whole time yet the game wants to use slicks

brazen nebula
#

if you havent started yet

#

it might be dry for like 2 laps

floral apex
#

i'll just use the game's strategy and adapt as necessary in the race

#

its monaco anyway so if we get a SC or a red flag ill take advantage of that

#

Crofty just said Monaco was "one of the most exciting races"

floral apex
#

Lawson's gone into the wall at Mirabeau but hes still driving

brazen nebula
#

makes sense why they want to go on slicks

#

i defo would of gone on slicks for the start

#

track position at monaco is too important

floral apex
#

Yeah it started raining around lap 5 or 6
We didnt get to undercut anyone but Leclerc's got a fairly large gap at the front

#

Mostly because Norris for some reason stayed out for one extra lap aftetr everyone else pitted

brazen nebula
#

thats mclaren strategy for you 😭

#

just like s(pain)

floral apex
brazen nebula
#

nice one

floral apex
#

leclerc got fastest lap when it was dry
and its now wet
so hes gonna hold that for a little while

#

except it wont matter anyway because the teams voted to remove the fastest lap point in 2026

#

two cars in the wall again and guess what its Stroll and Russell again

#

both cars are still driving

#

looks like the rain's gonna stop at the end

#

that might be 1 or 2 laps of slicks

brazen nebula
#

yeah

floral apex
#

Leclerc dominance doesnt exist, it cant hurt you
Leclerc dominance:

#

Leclerc is finally happy with the car's performance

#

Bottas and Sargeant in the wall

#

actually nvm theyre okay

#

Bottas is missing like 80% of his front wing tho

#

Bottas got a penalty for that impact

#

this is fine

#

very normal race at Monaco

#

also there have been no safety cars or red flags

brazen nebula
#

i would be trying to maintain a tyre advantage over norris

#

full conserve lol

floral apex
#

rain seems to be ending earlier than forcasted

#

seems like a swithc to slicks should be done between 68-70

#

i'll check again after lap 60

#

SAFETY CAR DEPLYOED

brazen nebula
#

uh oh

#

thats not good

floral apex
#

Esteban Ocon did too much heroics into Sainte Devote

brazen nebula
#

jeff is disappointed

#

all the warnings about heroics into sainte devote and ocon just ignores them all

floral apex
#

i mean what do you expect it is ocon

floral apex
#

i think i'll put leclerc on fresh inters so he can do a hard push before the switch to slicks

#

Leclerc's down in third now but he now has tire advantage should we have green flag running on inters

#

safety car coming in

#

ACTUALLY NEVER MIND THAT

#

red flag

brazen nebula
#

oh no

#

rip your strategy

floral apex
#

uhhh where's Bottas

#

it says he crashed there but i dont see the Alpine

keen brook
#

Maybe he's under the track.

brazen nebula
#

blud's gone

floral apex
#

oh yep he's gone underground

keen brook
#

I know this game too well.willmao

floral apex
#

but in the replay he's actually there lmao

#

time for dry running in Monaco!

brazen nebula
#

sharls better win

floral apex
#

Leclerc passes Norris through Sainte Devote!

#

and he had the outside line as well!

#

i was not aware this part of the track was actually kinda sideways

brazen nebula
#

my only way to force an overtake at monaco is full push on tyres and deploy battery onto the straight

floral apex
#

we're the only ones on softs

brazen nebula

this one?

yea i knew that

the back of the grid isnt very mechanically sound

#

3 laps to go

oh Stroll just retired

"his home town, his home run, SHARLES LECLERC WINS THE MONACO GRAND PRIX"

floral apex
brazen nebula
#

he even won it in red

#

just not with ferrari

floral apex
#

just a different red

floral apex
#

i like how i managed to get both my drivers a home win

#

Tsunoda won in Suzuka and now Leclerc in Monaco

brazen nebula
#

when i did a ferrari career on f1m22 if one driver messed up their home race and the other driver won their teammates home grand prix i would make sure at the next one of their home grand prix the other driver wouldnt win their home gp

#

basically everytime leclerc lost monaco he would win spain or zandvoort when i had max as his teammate

floral apex
#

i've had this Leclerc/Tsunoda pairing since i started lol

brazen nebula
#

i started a negotiation with piastri for 2026

#

idk if he will accept

floral apex
#

Tsunoda was the one that led the team in 2024 and 2025
Makes sense given Tsunoda was quite happy with the car's performance and Leclerc wasn't as much

brazen nebula

wheatley 95 rated

he's around that level in my save as well even in 2026

nah what does blud want

sent counter offer

gonna be paying him 30 million bro

hes so greedy bro

I recently extended Leclerc's contract
He'll be staying for quite a while

i wanted to raise his buyout fee

He's gonna be our Verstappen

cause i dont want alpine or someone trying to take oscar away

floral apex

alpine and oscar in the same sentence

#

ok bro this guy is getting money hungry

#

if he makes me send another counter offer im backing out

#

35 fucking million im gonna be paying him

ik thats why im trying to get him'

meanwhile me with leglerg

I think i'll replace Tsunoda with Antonelli in 2027

They're quite similar in rating actually

I wonder why the F1 games doesn't have the circle speedometer graphic on the HUDs yet

brazen nebula
#

people need the shift lights

#

the current huds are loosely inspired by the dashboards on the wheels

alpine dune
#

TBH, out of all the 2020s F1 games, the HUD in F1 2021 is my personal favorite

#

The least favorite.... Yeah, F1 24's takes the cake

brazen nebula
#

f1 24 hud is horrible

#

i liked f1 23's one

#

I HAVE GEORGE RUSSELL FOR NEXT SEASON

#

replacing hadjar for next year

alpine dune
#

With F1 2021's HUD I can at least see what speed am I'm at as opposed to narrowing my eyes to see the speedometer thanks to the super imposed graphics of the battery systems, the rev counter etc

brazen nebula
#

simulated monaco and it was p7 and p8

alpine dune
#

Personal favorite handling model has to be F1 23's Precision Drive. Definitely felt I had control of the steering, grip and traction. I'm still getting used to F1 24's Dynamic Handling

#

Maybe I am suffering from the Daniel Ricciardo McLaren effect

brazen nebula
#

idk i like the new f1 24 handling

#

i like the pointy front end

alpine dune
#

Least personal favorite handling and traction, defintely F1 22's

brazen nebula
#

agreed

alpine dune
#

Putting the power down in F1 22 has a high chance of spinning

brazen nebula
#

i looked at the telemetry on the onboards

#

and they put the power down really easily

#

but on f1 22 it took until 5th gear to actually reach full throttle without spinning

#

it was like you had 6k horsepower but you didnt

alpine dune
#

Hell, I even somehow spun the cars around when I was at low throttle mid corner during my F1 22 career modes

#

Granted I did spin numorous times in F1 2020 and 2021, but not as often as it was in F1 22

brazen nebula
#

i started using medium traction control on f1 22

#

cause it was closer to the traction they have irl

alpine dune
#

But man, if you think the AIs are OP in F1 24, you gotta remember the absurdly OP speed the AIs had in F1 22

#

Like, when Daniel was my teammate during my F1 22 MyTeam career mode, he activated warp drive and had a 40 seconds lead in just 2 laps

i understand if its 15 seasons but 10? thats a bit short

brazen nebula

oh thats cool

#

i thought you could only have the drivers that you have on the market at the start

brazen nebula
#

but you have to be really dedicated to reach 10 seasons

#

casual players only do like a season or two

#

whereas most career mode merchants get to season 5 or 6

#

even aarava only reaches season 4 or 5 each game cycle and he does like 3 career mode videos a week if he doesnt have any other games

you can change your teammate either mid season if you do 16 races or more or at the end of the season
