I have an idea how I get my finances fixed.

I do now less researches at once but put more CFD and winnel tunnel time into each.

So I now do what aarava also does, quality over quantity.

I went with quantity and it's just way too expensive.

[red wadi]

Forgot bro existed

[keen brook]

I guess I need to mention him more often then.

[red wadi]

Nah i’m just too BVBrainrotted

Spain F3 sprint race result of my My Team career

[broken sparrow]

this game is so strange
Safety car deployed I pit, after I exit the safety car is parked on the side of the track so I pass it and the game says illegal overtake on safety car, so I brake to let is past but I immediately get disqualified

[floral apex]

well it is illegal to pass the safety car

but those are some odd circumstances

I like how front and rear wings are so simple they can be made in one day on a maxed out factory

[keen brook]

Spain F3 feature race result of my My Team career

current F3 championship standings

[floral apex]

is it worth starting on inters?

it says no rain but somehow the chart is going up

considering the lack of rain im gonna say no

[frozen thunder]

i have perfectly played out the mercedes 1 - 2 plan

essentially slowing the cars in the corner to allow lewis to push ahead

and then swapping positions on the straights with my lower wing setup

it is now lewis P1 and myself P2 coming out of the pits

which is exactly what i wanted with the pit loss

we are cooking

i already have a plan if a safety car comes out

certainly illegal and against the rules if i do it in real life

[floral apex]

damn Max is really fast
i pitted him half way through everyone's stint on the inters and he caught up and is now leading by a lot

he was battling Piastri for the lead before lap 38
i pitted him for fresh inters on lap 38
and he made easy work of everyone to win by 10 seconds

"F1's newest team shattering all expectations here"
- Crofty

well to be fair i did start as a leading team cuz it seems like a verstappen thing to do

[devout saffron]

Yes

[bleak cloud]

is there a mod on f1 manager 24 to change the boards confidence in you as I givin myself the worst car option and they want me to finish 6th in the WCC and I know thats not going to happen as its R13 and still not scoured points.

[frozen thunder]

here are your top 10 for the 2025 british grand prix

vowed to help lewis win at his home race

also securing a much needed 1 - 2

redbull are a bit off form than i expected

mega push from lando to close the gap between him and lewis during the late part of the race

luckily i was able to change position with lewis just before becketts and i was able to help defend for lewis for the remaining laps

[floral apex]

the database editor

[floral apex]

me every time max was behind me in my save:

[little pivot]

boogity boogity boogity

[floral apex]

I finally perfected the Verstappen Orange

hopefully it doesnt look too close to McLaren papaya

[little pivot]

Kevin is going at it so far

[little pivot]

Win 2

[floral apex]

oh shit

oof

[floral apex]

i reverted the main team color back to the really dark blue thats darker than everyone elses blue

but the main color on the logo, race suit and livery will still be orange

damn this is the first time ive ever seen this

ERS rebooting

we just 1-2'ed the miami sprint despite an ers reboot

lol whats max doing

hes like checking the pit lane ground in front of his garage

[brazen nebula]

hes making sure red bull didnt place any ice there because they are mad you took him

[steady tusk]

bro got the peasant gamer set up

[visual latch]

HAHAHA sim racing where you drop $400 on a setup and its still a peasant setup

[coral ember]

how the fastest lap by 3 seconds and 2nd?

damn

[coral ember]

W

how is the shifter?

[steady tusk]

I spent $1500 for a T300 RS and the Ferrari F1 wheel

I'm still a peasant

[visual latch]

Very good. But it’s extremely different hahaha, I learned how to drive manual in real life on a 59 hotrod 😂

[visual latch]

HAHA WHAT

[coral ember]

ik how to drive manual irl tho

so

u think its realistic?

[visual latch]

I mean not really but it’s loads of fun

[coral ember]

oh

which games u play on it?

[visual latch]

I’m enjoying filtering through traffic in assetto corsa with 1000hp+ cars rn lol

[coral ember]

haha

have fun mate

[visual latch]

Only tried asetto and horizons

I’m gonna buy beamng and maybe f1 tmr

[coral ember]

imo dont go for 24

i think 23 is a better option

[visual latch]

You think so?

Why’s that

[coral ember]

yes

its just better

24 is a worse version with new team livery and drivers

just that

[visual latch]

Where’s the best place to buy 23

[coral ember]

u have steam?

or console?

[visual latch]

Yeah

Dream

Steam **

[coral ember]

if u are on pc

just buy from steam

thats what i do

[visual latch]

Okay

[coral ember]

23 will go delisted in some months so

hurry if u wanna buy it

[visual latch]

I’ve got a nice powerful GPU, is there any racing games that can make use of that

[coral ember]

yes u can like high up the graphics in f1 games

[visual latch]

Holyshit $70

[coral ember]

are u interested in gt racing?

[coral ember]

yes

[visual latch]

Yea

[coral ember]

try assetto corsa competizione

[visual latch]

Groceries this week or new racing game

[coral ember]

💀

[steady tusk]

Yeah the Ferrari wheel costs as much as the midrange Thrustmaster wheels do

[visual latch]

Guess it’s ice sandwiches all week

[coral ember]

can i see the wheel by any chance?

[visual latch]

I went to Best Buy and got the wheel and shifter for $300

[coral ember]

oh damn

i bought my g29 like 300 bucks without shifter

[steady tusk]

Which one

[coral ember]

the ferrari one you said

[visual latch]

I just asked for a cheaper price and she told me she’d find a place to price match it and did it for me

Saved myself like $70

[coral ember]

yeah

W

[visual latch]

Still down $300 tho HAHAHA

[coral ember]

who need groceries when we have racing games 🗣️

[visual latch]

Ok true

[coral ember]

oh damn

[visual latch]

You can’t win races with a steak

[coral ember]

is that like the t300 wheelbase?

[visual latch]

I think you need more buttons and dials

[coral ember]

💀

[steady tusk]

What if I chuck the steak at the leading driver

[visual latch]

Then you’re playing Mario kart

[coral ember]

i used to play a mario kart f1 game on xbox 360

[visual latch]

Some cars in assetto say they have adjustable turbos, I’ve never heard of this what’s that 🤔

[coral ember]

i dont remember the name

[visual latch]

I’m gonna pull up to my 5 year old cousin’s Mario kart birthday and haul ass with my $400 racing setup 😎

[coral ember]

😎

ur setup is cool

i like simple ones

like myself included

its chill

try assetto corsa competizione

[visual latch]

I plugged my setup into my theater’s surround sound system

[coral ember]

its very cool

[visual latch]

Very disorienting

Probably because I was facing the wrong way

[visual latch]

Okay, will do

I want some kind of chill racing game too, is there any of the such with nice graphics ?

[keen brook]

I had that once as well.

[keen brook]

There was an issue with removing the rear right tire at Wenzel's pit stop.

Then there was an issue with fitting on the front left tire at Bottas' pit stop.

And then Alonso had an engine failure, taking him out of the race.

[coral ember]

wdym by chill racing?

[keen brook]

Wenzel spun.

[fiery mantle]

f1 24 is ridiculous 🤣🤣 i just put in a new energy store and a new mguk in the car, so i should get a penalty, right? NO, instead, Verstappen takes a penalty, and now i start P4

[keen brook]

[fiery mantle]

no grid pens for changing parts after parc ferme, love to see it

not even f1 23 had this bug 😭

[keen brook]

How big was the pay-check to the FIA?

[fiery mantle]

And the game still tells me i had a 22 place grid penalty 😭🤣🤣

[keen brook]

Dürksen replaced Albon in FP at Mercedes, Antonelli replaced Leclerc in FP at Ferrari, Lee replaced Verstappen in FP at Red Bull, Jensen replaced Sainz in FP at Red Bull, León replaced Russell in FP at Alpine and Biddiscombe replaced Bottas in FP at Alpine.

Going into the Sprint qualifying, Isack needs now his 3rd gearbox.

[red wadi]

Might do a “career of” save, I’m thinking Colapinto but 24 is kinda boring so idk

[frozen thunder]

i held back cars behind lewis so i had to drop P2 to get him the win

but i set fastest lap during the start when lewis was able to get up to P3

so essentially i held back lando who was P2 at the time to allow lewis to over take him

[keen brook]

Wenzel went wide.

[fiery mantle]

Wooo, 1-2 at Spain!!

[fiery mantle]

Alonso wins his home race for the first time since 2013!

[red wadi]

Anyone else with a different driver or maybe F1 23?

[fiery mantle]

(still annoyed with the grid pen bug but whatever)

Alonso now leads the WDC too, by 5 points

[keen brook]

Gabi locked up into Sainz.

both out of SQ1

[fiery mantle]

Aston increases their gap on the constructors, the gap to Ferrari in second now being 52 points

[keen brook]

SQ1 over with the red flag

[fiery mantle]

McLaren have to be the biggest bottlers in this save fr

[fiery mantle]

They could be winning so much more if they didn't have some weird ass alternate strategy every race

And now when Norris had pace, his engine died on the penultimate lap

[keen brook]

Gabi damaged the chassis and front wing.

Wenzel spun into the wall.

Wenzel out of SQ2

SQ2 over

Austria Sprint qualifying result of my My Team career

AM Honda just dropped

[raven fern]

i'm so f*cking annoyed

im doing F2 carrer

it's monza

i'm pitting under safety car

[red wadi]

I feel a certified F1 24 moment coming up

[raven fern]

but game decided that i did not pit under safety car but rather under VSC (that was only up for like a second btw) and therefore i didnt use all tyre compunds that i had to use and got DNFed (win stolen)

[raven fern]

F1 23

[jade osprey]

Not a good qualifying in Spain..
Russel crashes in q2
Hamilton finished p9

I'll send crash pov soon

[red wadi]

Fair enough

[raven fern]

but at least it's not as annoying as F1 22 AI

[red wadi]

Peak AI was 09

[raven fern]

(if i won i would've had guaranteed championship but now i have to fight in abu dhabi)

i mean

i only need to score like 10 points throught the entire race weekend

[fiery mantle]

in f2, iirc you can't complete your mandatory stop during a safety car

[keen brook]

F1 Manager 2024 update 1.6 is out for PC now.

For consoles it comes next week.😭

https://www.f1manager.com/2024/update-notes/1-6

[raven fern]

you want an F1 24 moment i had?

[red wadi]

Yeah sure

[floral apex]

ooh new drivers

[fiery mantle]

Well, at least the game actually recognised my penalty now, i qualied P2 for the race in Austria, but i start P19 now

[floral apex]

that will only appear on new saves

[raven fern]

i bought F1 24 cuz it was on a sale because fromm al F1 games i've only played F1 22 before cuz it was cheap af and my friend had it but i bought F1 24 and it didnt even bother to boot up on my PC cuz it has had some anti cheat issue and no fixes on the internet solved it

[fiery mantle]

Let's see if i could salvage a podium, i've been having MENTAL pace lately

[red wadi]

Bruh

Refund or?

[raven fern]

so i refunded it and bought F1 23

[red wadi]

W

Wish they never took away real time starting points

[floral apex]

john howard calling everyone pierre lmao

[raven fern]

do you think that saving every single race replay from my F2 career and making it all into one big highlights youtube video is a good idea considering i already have 34GB of footage from Lethal Company to watch through and take out the funniest moments i had?

[raven fern]

if you want another F1 23 moment

then here is 365 days of spa pit window

[red wadi]

Absolutely

[red wadi]

[keen brook]

yes

They added all 3 MP drivers of F1 Academy and Taponen.

[raven fern]

i dont know any of them but Tuukka Taponen sounds like a chad

[floral apex]

"funnist lethal company moments" followed by "F2 Career highlights" sounds like a good variety

[red wadi]

Ngl I might install F1 23 just for a Franco Colapinto career

[raven fern]

dude, he's barely older than me

[keen brook]

As soon as this update is out for consoles I'll start a Haas save.

Signing Esteban and Ollie for 2025.

[floral apex]

“Bruh I came here for lethal company, not knock off F1!!” - LethalCompTimmy

[keen brook]

I step into the shoes of Komatsu and cook.🔥

[raven fern]

sadly i couldnt save a replay from monza quali cuz it was my first time seeing AI crash at quali (ofc it was Logan)

[keen brook]

I will also still continue this save.

But a bit of variety can't harm.

[raven fern]

i have F1 save and F2 save at the same time

thinking abt doing a third "my team" save

[keen brook]

Yeah, on F1 24 I also have 2 saves.

An Esteban save which is my main save and a Lewis save.

It's lights out and away we go!

mechanical issue for Verstappen

crash

Hülkenberg locked up into Gasly.

[raven fern]

lmao i tried to get from P9 to P8 in quali and i cooked up the fastest lap

(when i had 5% wear on the tyres i was .8s slower)

[keen brook]

Hülkenberg gets a 5 second time penalty.

[raven fern]

(now i have 20%)

[raven fern]

😭

[keen brook]

Albon locked up.

[raven fern]

P10 for sprint and PP for main race

[keen brook]

crash

[raven fern]

if feel like championship is mine

[keen brook]

Haas civil war

[keen brook]

Wenzel gets a 5 second time penalty.

Tsunoda spun.

Saw that live from Isack's onboard lol.

[raven fern]

i need to get 8 points to secure the championship

so if i get P1 in the sprint then championship is mine

no matter what

[floral apex]

whos your main rival

[raven fern]

lawson

my F1 save driver is named after Kacper Sztuka and my F2 save is named after Piotr Wiśnicki, my team save driver will be named after Robert Kubica

(yes im inhaling copium after 2019)

[keen brook]

Isack Hadjar wins the Austrian Sprint!🥳

our 1st ever win

It's just a Sprint win but a win is a win.

[raven fern]

i'm considering upping my AI difficulty from 70 to 80 but idk cuz im really dominating on some tracks but i cant to anything on others

alright i made it to P5 after the first sector but it's mainly thanks to the fact that the AI in F2 has kinda slow start

[keen brook]

It could've been an actual fight for the win against Tsunoda but he bottled it.

He literally felt down from 1st to 14th with his spin.

[raven fern]

i'm in more of a downforce setup than rest of the grid so im really fast in S3 and on the beginning of S1 but im falling behind in S2 (except for the chicane part)

safety car cuz someone spun on the chicane i think

[floral apex]

oh i just realized something
we're using the same colors now

[keen brook]

lol

[raven fern]

amaury cordeel bumped into tatiana calderon spinning her out on the chicane in S2

[raven fern]

fr

[keen brook]

What I've seen on the F1 Manager Discord mods seem to brake the new update.

[floral apex]

Oof

[keen brook]

Some have an issue that the new drivers and generic affiliates have no name.

[raven fern]

nah i false started cuz the "A" button doesnt work properly on my controller and sometimes realeses early

[keen brook]

Like their name text is empty.

[floral apex]

theres only one thing worse than max verstappen dominating

and its a max verstappen racing team dominating

[raven fern]

we doin' drive through penalty i guess

i just have to pray that a safety car comes out or something

I SAID SC NOT VSC

i got another drive through for having negative delta under vsc (it was positive before the timing line)

i got a drive through for nothing and a drive through cuz my controller broken

[heavy shoal]

two drive throughs is amazing work

[keen brook]

I've seen something promising for new My Team saves on the F1 Manager Discord. Someone signed Checo and Bottas and they got replaced with Liam at Red Bull and Théo at Kick Sauber.

[fiery mantle]

P20 -> P5 + FL is not bad at all

[keen brook]

so no Verschoor and Correa anymore

[frozen thunder]

turn 1 shenanigans

[fiery mantle]

Some insane battles in the race too

[fiery mantle]

10% diff is diabolical

[frozen thunder]

i’m pushing 🗣️

into a barrier 🤑🤑🔥🔥

[fiery mantle]

🔥🔥

[heavy shoal]

when do we expect the new F2 cars in f124

[fiery mantle]

probably december, as always

[keen brook]

I have read something about late September to early October.

[heavy shoal]

That's the only thing I'm boutta drive on F124

[fiery mantle]

i'm praying they'll actually handle well

[keen brook]

yeah

[fiery mantle]

the f2 23 cars are shit

[keen brook]

They really are.

[heavy shoal]

yeah i hope they fix the handling for f2 cars

[keen brook]

They were so much fun to drive in every game.

[fiery mantle]

you CANNOT brake while turning, or else you spin

[heavy shoal]

I just get random oversteer on the exit

[keen brook]

Then 23 F2 cars in F1 24 happened.

[raven fern]

all thanks to my controller not working and the game not seeing that my delta is positive

[heavy shoal]

how much was it positive by

[raven fern]

.23 i think

[heavy shoal]

oh

[fiery mantle]

OH REALLY? IS BOTTAS OUTPERFORMING ME? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

[raven fern]

anyways, if lawson wins this race with fastest lap and i dont get 6 points at least then i lose the championship to him

[fiery mantle]

bottas has like 5 points

and i'm STILL lower rated after having 3 wins and 4 podiums already

[heavy shoal]

It's ridiculously hard to push the car

even if you aren't near the limit lol

[frozen thunder]

yeah if you so much as try to add power you’ll spin

you literally have to wait until you’re straight out of the exit

[fiery mantle]

real

from my experience, baku t1 is THE WORST corner for this car, ever

[heavy shoal]

Bahrain was the worst for me

Spain felt loads better

[frozen thunder]

same

do NOT add power out of turn 4

[raven fern]

P1 to at least P6 is possible unless i DNF or get a drive through for nothing

[keen brook]

Well, if it's a rating rivalry then it's about the rating.

not standings

[fiery mantle]

yeahhhh, i know but i should be higher rated than 79

p3 in the wdc on debut season, and lower rated than bottas

[frozen thunder]

2 wide into eau rouge/raidillon

[keen brook]

nice wheel to wheel battle

[raven fern]

on lap 3 i have 3.5s of lead but im on softs and they're on mediums

[frozen thunder]

i was more focused on our wheels than the track lol

thank you

[rigid hollow]

I beat verstappens lap in monza in f1 24

I did a 1.20.439

[keen brook]

Wenzel went wide.

[floral apex]

F1 Manager race replay mode making more puns

[keen brook]

[floral apex]

i just made a very upper midfield verstappen f1 team cuz it seems like a very max thing to do

stellar lap times from the red bulls

ooh theres a hide ui button now

now you can take fancy pictures of incidents without the ui getting in the way

[keen brook]

And Red Bull hired Lawson and not Verschoor.

I guess Ferrari hired Bearman then?

[keen brook]

Oh yeah, they did.

nice

That's a really good change.

no more Verschoor and Correa

[floral apex]

it did start with correa and verschoor

i just changed it after the season start because why would red bull hire correa

[keen brook]

oh

Oh yeah, I see it's Miami already so pre-patch.

[floral apex]

yea

[keen brook]

Because now they by default don't hire Verschoor and Correa anymore.

[floral apex]

idk if they changed the correa-verschoor hiring thing after the 1.6 patch

[keen brook]

yes

They did.

[floral apex]

now they take from their academies?

[keen brook]

yes

[floral apex]

sheet now i need to start a new save

[keen brook]

I saw someone hiring Pérez and Bottas, Red Bull hired Lawson, Kick Sauber Pourchaire.

Also the signings seem to be more realistic now.

like no Flörsch and other randoms anymore

They now sign the higher rated F2 drivers.

[floral apex]

so no more Haas signing two random F3 drivers?

[keen brook]

So Hauger doesn't get completely ignored anymore.

[floral apex]

great now i want to start a completely new save

[keen brook]

I will also start a new one once the patch comes for consoles.

[floral apex]

ill just do my original save again but updated

hopefully we dont fuck the car up in 2027

[raven fern]

19.6s of lead on final lap (i went for 1 pit only and they went for 2 pit strategy)

[floral apex]

did Stroll steal Alonso's car?

[keen brook]

[floral apex]

miami turn 7/8 is absolutely brutal

Finally we get a hide UI option

finally better screenshots without having to crop around the UI

you can only hide ui when the game is paused (makes sense)

[red wadi]

Why that thing still there though?

[keen brook]

To make sure people don't panick and don't know how to get the UI back.

[floral apex]

oh i seem to have broken the camera again

got 16x speed going on with the camera still stuck in the pit lane

[red wadi]

Fair ig

[raven fern]

letsgooo

F2 championship

[keen brook]

nice gg

[floral apex]

the Red Bulls keep setting 2 minute lap times lmao

[keen brook]

lol

[red wadi]

Lol

[floral apex]

aw the camera fixed itself after the lap was finished

[keen brook]

Zhou locked up.

[floral apex]

ill do sunwest racing 2.0 after this race

[keen brook]

Leclerc spun.

[floral apex]

seems to be a bit wet out there

this is quite the graph

looks like a mountain range

[keen brook]

[bleak cloud]

has the new update on f1 manager broken anyone else's game?

[floral apex]

im gonna pit max in the middle of that stint so we have tire advantage before the switch to inters

[bleak cloud]

like some cars are missing tyres and on the replay when it shows a teams pit crew its all dark

[red wadi]

Bruh wth

[keen brook]

lol

[floral apex]

insane 0-tire strategy

just found out you can minimize the driver command box as well

[keen brook]

Well, without tires on the car they can't wear out.

the best part is this all happened naturally

except for my very out of context message

[opaque compass]

anyone to play coop in f1 23?

[floral apex]

this seems to be the peak rain we're gonna get

actually it went up to 6.03

and Ocon just died

[opaque compass]

what gp?

[crimson tangle]

Congrats @opaque compass, you're now on lap 5

[floral apex]

so i kinda forgot we get 3 sets of wet tires and not 2

we got a sudden dry patch
i put my drivers on max conserve

[keen brook]

Verstappen went wide.

[floral apex]

even on conserve mode max is flying

oh red flag

its that dreaded turn 8 again

switching max and charles to inters cuz it seems to be drying u[

[keen brook]

Even in my save they're 1-2 right now just in their original teams.

[floral apex]

why is Miami just so... chaotic

[keen brook]

damn

For me there happened nothing in 2025.

well

[floral apex]

well a race happened

[keen brook]

There were 4 DNFs.

But all 4 were mechanical failures.

[floral apex]

and there goes another one

im pretty sure thats 5 mechanical issues and 1 crash tho

[keen brook]

It usually don't show terminal for crashes though.

Well, that may be fixed with the new patch.

As crashes actually quite often have a terminal damaged part.

Strategies are for Isack , for Gabi .

[floral apex]

most normal strategy

[floral apex]

damn does the water graph just look like this

and another red flag

...leclerc just crashed

[keen brook]

It goes up pretty rapid.

[floral apex]

sainz passes a crashed leclerc

i like how they have to red flag it even tho Leclerc isnt really blocking the track by much and could handle a safety car

why does everyone just lose the rear in turn 7

and here we go... again

[jade osprey]

verstappen wins by 0.3 seconds over lando norris in spain | alonso grabs a podium in his home gp

Leclerc really just went to prove you wrong by crashing and retiring without terminal damage

nah

He will get better.

[floral apex]

ill just remake my original save but with this new patch stuff

[keen brook]

crash

2.538 for Gabi

[floral apex]

which means max money, max facilities, level 3 car, LEC/TSU

[keen brook]

RB civil war

[jade osprey]

[floral apex]

this is just red bull on a regular basis

[keen brook]

Zhou light damage

Magnussen gets a 5 second time penalty.

[floral apex]

[jade osprey]

ok hamilton doesnt come out for a 2nd run in q2 and falls down to 6th

[keen brook]

VCARB

[jade osprey]

into q3 now

[floral apex]

still works

[jade osprey]

merc topped q1 and redbull topped q2

[keen brook]

mechanical issue for Gallardo

mechanical issue for Norris

[floral apex]

i feel like the UI style changed slightly in this update

[keen brook]

severe engine issue now

Magnussen went wide.

[half forum]

am i blind or is that max next to oscar or is it bottas

[floral apex]

thats oscar lol

the photos just really dark because heavy rain

[half forum]

[floral apex]

max

[half forum]

oh

ok

[floral apex]

how goated is this lineup

[keen brook]

Yukierre is back.

[floral apex]

now i dont know whether to sign leclerc or gasly lmao

I think i'll just sign leclerc when we start getting good because hes just gonna be unhappy until we get a good car

[jade osprey]

Austria Qualifying results: Hamilton - p4 | Russel - p3

[floral apex]

Bruh my weather irl pulled an absolute F1 Manager forecast

Tuesday: cloudy
Wednesday: heavy rain
Thursday: sun

[keen brook]

2.607 for Isack

2.209 for Gabi

[jade osprey]

First corner and russel has an issue with the combustion engine 😭

[keen brook]

It only took like 2 laps to go from Inter to full wet weather.

[floral apex]

Did you switch straight to wets and just put full conserve for the first few laps to prevent overheating

[keen brook]

yes

Gallardo locked up.

Well, I didn't do the conserve part.

[floral apex]

which pierre gasly race engineer do i use
Hamelin or Howard

[keen brook]

But I went straight to full wets as everyone did that.

[jade osprey]

Successful start

[keen brook]

Hamelin

mechanical issue for Sainz

gearbox issue

mechanical issue for Bottas

gearbox issue

[floral apex]

i just casually poach both vcarb engineers lol

[keen brook]

[floral apex]

yeah theres been a UI change

[keen brook]

Zhou spun into the wall.

Zhou out

[floral apex]

this new save will be the same as my original save but with two changes: GAS instead of LEC and merc engines instead of ferrari

[jade osprey]

Mercedes 1,2 I am so happy

And max has an engine failure

[keen brook]

Bottas spun

literally green and immediately yellow again

[floral apex]

ok thats odd
you cant rotate the camera after hiding the UI anymore

absolutely goated livery yes

[keen brook]

France livery

[floral apex]

nobody will confuse us with Ferrari with this livery

[keen brook]

2022 Alfa

just with more white

mechanical issue for Sainz

severe gearbox issue now

mechanical issue for Sainz

gearbox failure

[floral apex]

im just gonna throw on my 2026 livery cuz why not

ok good both Gasly and Tsunoda are happy with the performance of a level 3 car

that should give us some good results across this season

[keen brook]

Austria race result of my My Team career

[red wadi]

I'm honestly deciding on doing a F1 23 Franco save but I also have a intresting idea for MotoGP 23

[keen brook]

current championship standings

Yes, Sainz finished the race with the gearbox failure.

[floral apex]

WOAH NEW UI (at least for this)

[keen brook]

Really like the UI changes.

[floral apex]

the rest of the sponsor negotiation page remains the same tho

[keen brook]

Can't wait for the patch.

[red wadi]

Mods seem to carry create a team

[keen brook]

nah, not really

[floral apex]

i just have mods on cuz i like realism

[keen brook]

You can do quite a lot even without mods.

[red wadi]

Idk the fake logos are ugly

[floral apex]

but the base game is good as well

[red wadi]

So my team is driving around in a empty car

[floral apex]

seems like sponsors can improve team stuff now

[keen brook]

That's what my current livery looks like.

Austria pit stops of my My Team career

current DHL fastest pit stop award standings

[floral apex]

wow fastest pit stop nice job

[keen brook]

yeah

our 2nd fastest pit stop

[floral apex]

new livery just dropped

[red wadi]

That front looks goofy

[keen brook]

Isack's rating went up.

[floral apex]

yeah i just took my 2026 livery and rebadged it

[keen brook]

Austria F2 qualifying result of my My Team career

[floral apex]

WOAHH

[keen brook]

Tim Tramnitz wins the F2 Austria sprint race!🥳

Austria F2 feature race result of my My Team career

[floral apex]

ok i think i made a mistake when making the team
facilities and money were level 4 instead of 5

oops

[keen brook]

current F2 championship standings

[floral apex]

oh yeah the Verschoor/Correa new team thing is fixed

[keen brook]

Who has Alpine signed? Martins?

[floral apex]

Alpine got Doohan to replace Gasly

[keen brook]

oh Doohan

forgot him for a moment

[floral apex]

and VCARB got Hauger to replace Tsunoda

i like this, its realistic now

[keen brook]

oh Hauger, interesting

Would've thought either Lawson as well or Iwasa.

[floral apex]

i had to manually set Lawson to Red Bull and Bearman to Ferrari in my other save cuz its pre-patch

[floral apex]

im pretty sure Lawson is set as a Red Bull affiliate and not VCARB so they couldnt have taken him

Iwasa mightve been the second option had I taken both their drivers

[keen brook]

Well, Hauger actually isn't affiliated with Red Bull anymore.

[floral apex]

it is an interesting choice yeah

also yeah names broken

thank god hes not in F1

i think this matches up well for a level 3 car

we're not expecting too much to start

points would be a miracle

[keen brook]

Austria F3 qualifying result of my My Team career

[fiery mantle]

i lowkey have a sick idea for an f1 career mode

[red wadi]

Same

But I'll probably do it on MotoGP23

[fiery mantle]

i'll start at mclaren for example on f1 23, and then continue it onwards after the first season on f1 24

[fiery mantle]

bro your name almost looks invisible because of the minardi role 😭😭

[red wadi]

Yeah I know

That's why I chose it

[keen brook]

Austria F3 sprint race result of my My Team career

[fiery mantle]

like look at this 😭

[floral apex]

imagine starting your career in f1 2015
then after season 1 move to f1 2016
season 2 in f1 2017
season 3 in f1 2018
saeson 4 in f1 2019
season 5 in f1 2020
season 6 in f1 2021
season 7 in f1 22
season 8 in f1 23

[fiery mantle]

would be kinda cool

[red wadi]

[floral apex]

its not that bad on default discord gray but it is hard to see

[fiery mantle]

i'm on default grey 😭

[red wadi]

Lol

[fiery mantle]

i'm not on the hidden darker setting

[fiery mantle]

i just don't have the patience or the skill anymore to play f1 2019-2021, driving on pad feels so bad in that game

[keen brook]

Luke Browning wins the F3 Austria feature race!🥳

[fiery mantle]

it's all because i'm used to f1 23 and f1 24 having the precision drive thing

[fiery mantle]

if i do this, i might do 10-16 races

icba doing another 24 race career, considering that my aston one is already 24 races

[keen brook]

current F3 championship standings

[fiery mantle]

so was my williams one too

[jade osprey]

Mercedes 1,2 incoming!

[fiery mantle]

mguh on 65% boutta cook you 😭

[jade osprey]

I'm going slower on corners mimimising the temp

Begging to cross the line without an mguh issue

[fiery mantle]

just shortshift on exit, that can help too

[jade osprey]

5 laps left I might be ok

[floral apex]

I like how Alpine hire Doohan because I poached Gasly
and they dont even let him drive in FP1

[keen brook]

[fiery mantle]

i'm still haunted by my f1 23 career, like 7 or 8 engine failures in one season

[keen brook]

Oh, they use Martins now instead of Maini, nice.

[fiery mantle]

got so bad i had to turn them off 😭

[floral apex]

bro
sar(geant)

[jade osprey]

Gearbox is on 64 aswell

[keen brook]

Oh and Williams uses now Browning instead of Colapinto.

[floral apex]

still got FP1 driver chaos

[keen brook]

Or they use now all their drivers they have.

[fiery mantle]

gearbox should be fine, tbh

only ever had one or two terminal gearbox issues since f1 2021

[keen brook]

Red Bull using Sztuka is interesting.

[jade osprey]

Mguh 66 now

[floral apex]

remind me to replace Sargeant with Colapinto after i report on the Dutch GP

[jade osprey]

4 laps to go on 66% mguh

[floral apex]

i think you can survive

the car

i havent changed the driver number color so its still gold

[fiery mantle]

if i do the f1 23 to 24 thing, what team should i pick? i'm debating between mclaren, alphatauri/vcarb, or alfa/sauber

[jade osprey]

Rb

[fiery mantle]

i'll keep that in mind

i might start it tomorrow, if i can

[jade osprey]

My car is fucked

Final sector

Damage underbody

Damaged wing

66% mguh and 64% gearbox

Perez divebombed straight into me

YESSS

MERCEDES 1,2

HAMILTON WINS

[opaque compass]

antonelli just won 2024 f2 in f1 manager 24 my team career, however he cant join any f1 team cuz he didnt complete 2 seasons of f2/f3

lol

hes stuck seatless

[brazen nebula]

the mobile one is actually invisible

[red wadi]

💀

[brazen nebula]

I CAN SEE IT 😱 😱 🥳

[red wadi]

😱

[floral apex]

ping moment lol

i have low expectations for my team this season

also i might take out all of my livery mods and implement them later when 2026 actually comes

woah thats cool the clear skies sun symbol actually turns into a moon for night races

[keen brook]

Yeah, read something like that in the patch notes, that looks really nice.

[floral apex]

when we get top 3 or 4 fastest car we'll hire either max or charles

[keen brook]

I will stick in this save with F2 drivers.

[floral apex]

the reflections make the black on my car look blue

[keen brook]

lol

After the Austria weekend we have from every part 3 pieces.

So I need to manufacture 1 for all 6 parts.

[floral apex]

noo yuki

gasly making it into q3 like in all of my other saves

[keen brook]

traditions

[floral apex]

wow this is just like gasly in my f1 23 save

he makes it into Q3 then promptly qualifies P10

[keen brook]

lol

[floral apex]

thats GAS P10, TSU P11 after Bahrain quali

rip norris

for some reason the background garage footage while in the preprace menu just goes in hyperspeed

a quick exit to weekend menu and re enter fixes it

after Bahrain i'll revert everyone back to their 2024 liveries and then re-apply the livery updates in 2025

oh nice
second ever pit stop and there was a problem lol

[keen brook]

nice

good start

[floral apex]

Sainz won Bahrain

we finished P11, P12

for our debut that aint that bad

[keen brook]

Damn, just missed out on points.

[floral apex]

only just noticed it tells you what the pit stop error was

[keen brook]

Yeah, it does tell you that for every pit stop issue.

But that's not a new thing.

I just now noticed less engineers makes the research more effective.

[floral apex]

yeah i saw that

[keen brook]

From now on I do less at once but put more into each.

To get the finances fixed.

And still have a good car for the big reg change in 2026.

I might even reduce the engineer team to save money.

[floral apex]

based on the current schedule
i'll have upgrades ready by Suzuka

designs finish before Australia but it takes a while to manufacture those parts

[keen brook]

I do nothing on the 2025 car anymore.

Ironically we still get better though.

The 1st win was way after I stopped development.

[floral apex]

i think that means the other teams got worse

[keen brook]

Or it's maybe the driver's growth.

As they are literally the worst personnel in my team.

But I'm fine with that.

[floral apex]

my car is like the most average car ever

[keen brook]

That's the legacy of my team.

[floral apex]

its so... average

[red wadi]

I forgot the game existed

[floral apex]

if you combined every other car on the grid, you'd get my car

[keen brook]

literally mid

oh

I just now realized.

British GP

time for an one-off livery

[red wadi]

Please mod BVBrainrot into the game 🙏😭

[keen brook]

Well, I'm on console.

[red wadi]

Damn…..

[floral apex]

lol i scrolled down on the fastest pit stop leaderboard and found the most unexpected team at the bottom

[keen brook]

one-off livery for Silverstone

[floral apex]

aarava

[keen brook]

yes

[red wadi]

Aarava glazing is wild /j

[keen brook]

[red wadi]

Nah that’s a lovely livery

[floral apex]

scrolled down on the fastest pit stop leaderboard just to find

[keen brook]

😭

[floral apex]

meanwhile

[keen brook]

That's a crime.

bloody Kick Sauber ahead of Ferrari

[floral apex]

their fastest stop in Bahrain was slower than ours lmao

how does this happen

and how does audi sauber get 2.6

i just noticed something about all of the logos used

[red wadi]

Cold name

[floral apex]

ferrari logo: colored
red bull logo: colored
mclaren logo: colored
my logo: colored
everyone else's logo: black and white

you'd think you're going color blind

[keen brook]

You would think that would be a black and white pic.

[floral apex]

Formula One: Inducing Color Blindness in Fans since 1950 (this doesn't include 7th to 9th which are the Mercedes and Alonso)

woah sick new open air garage design

[keen brook]

[red wadi]

Bro’s secret Ferrari 2019 strats about to get exposed

[floral apex]

also

theres no floor in that picture either

[red wadi]

Bro’s underfloor getting leaked

[floral apex]

this is the best view of it

[keen brook]

Get the photographs and go down with the cam as much as you can.

[red wadi]

APXGP post F1 movie leaked pics

[floral apex]

i think this is the most i can hide

one thing this has showed me is people keep talking to the guy working under the nose of the car

also i just noticed
the Safety Car is visible behind the menu

OKAY JEDDAH IS JUST BROKEN

[red wadi]

Is it flying?

[red wadi]

SpaceX ahh team

[keen brook]

literally the Formula 1 STC Moon Grand Prix 2042

[floral apex]

i joined the f1 manager discord just to post this goofy moment

[brazen nebula]

wasnt there a patch earlier to fix this type of bullshit at jeddah??

[floral apex]

Another guy on f1m discord has the samr bug
Guess the patch didnt work or smth

[brazen nebula]

it said something about fixing no crowds

and the balancing of crashes

at jeddah

[floral apex]

oh im an idiot

i forgot to fix the liveries

also stroll crashed and red flagged Q1

its the reverse of Bahrain
TSU P9, GAS P11

ok now what is this

its like theres a power outage in my garage now

[keen brook]

literally a night race

[red wadi]

Now I understand why FIA won’t let random ass teams compete anymore

[keen brook]

[floral apex]

safety car
stroll stole alonsos car again

[red wadi]

wait wdym

[floral apex]

how funny would this podium be

[red wadi]

GRT

Toyota confirmed

[floral apex]

i like hiw we only get a safety car when Alonso blocks half the track

but this is a red flag

ok bruh

we LITEARLLY just restarted

we had a red flag within 1 minute of a red flag restart

that muts be a new record

oh i just got the tire glitch also

also we got our first points 🎉

TSU P9, GAS P10

[frozen thunder]

i decided to do a push lap on mediums on medium ERS mode and set a 1:19.810

fastest sector 1 and 3

[floral apex]

5th fastest pit stop as well lets gooo

[frozen thunder]

just barely a tenth slower than lando’s S2

i’m one second off of creator series tho (i should join F1 e sports)

[floral apex]

this new patched kinda broke the game, hopefully they get on to it

[jade osprey]

Amazing result in silverstone another mercedes 1,2
Hamilton: p1
Russel: p2

first half of the season done

verstappen: 4 wins

norris: 2 wins

hamilton: 2 wins

russel: 1 win

perez: 1 win

leclerc: 1 win

sainz: 1 win

[floral apex]

i just have to survive the australian gp and then we'll have our first upgrades

[floral apex]

my favorite part about F1 Manager is that we can skip practice sessions without worrying about missing anything
like in the f1 game, skipping a practice session means you miss out on R&D points

Hamelin: How was the balance?
Gasly: happy.

i only just realized these slow lap times are because the game's now timing out laps

both drivers make it to Q3 for the first time

thats the highest quali result of the team so far
GAS P7, TSU P8

[floral apex]

GAS P7, TSU P9 after Aussie GP

[frank plinth]

Bro bought back Toyota to F1

[floral apex]

im gonna uninstall all of my livery mods and bring back the 2024 teams and liveries

might bring some liveries in in 2025 and the ones related to engine suppliers in 26

woah im modding the game now

im looking at every single piece of text in the game right now

theres EIGHTY EIGHT THOUSAND lines of code to handle every single line of text

lmao

[floral apex]

lmao ive gone in and replaced almost every instance of "Sauber" with "Audi" in the game files

F1 Manager 24 makes a reference to Nicholas Latifi... hmmmm...

[floral apex]

just put on a few upgrades

[floral apex]

suzuka q1 red flagged, sargeant out

[floral apex]

damn this is funny

safety car was deployed so i had both my drivers pit

gasly managed to gain a position by pitting

are they decorating the wall for christmas?

[rigid hollow]

Heard tyres are missing in the new patch?

[floral apex]

theres a glitch where sometimes tires will not be rendered after a pit stop
doesnt affect gameplay but it is interesting to note

[autumn siren]

hi, i’m new to f1 24, i saw some tiktok videos and i saw that they have 2 racing lines. how do i get this?

[jade osprey]

hungary result: verstappen dominates

mercedes result: hamilton - started p9 - finished p7

russel - started p8 - DNF

[drifting quartz]

They’re likely playing time trial, so there’s 2 racing lines which is the games recommended line and the ghost line which is usually the line you took on your personal best lap

[quick mulch]

Hey i have an original copy of digital f1 2013 do someone want to trade plss

[fiery mantle]

So, my drs just got stuck open while fighting for P5

And i just spun at vale after tapping perez

[thin python]

F1 Manager 24 grand slam achievement is still cooked

holy shit

[fiery mantle]

I'm 17th now ffs

[broken sparrow]

why did he take me out for this bruh

it wasn't even my fault

[broken sparrow]

oscar piastri ahh luck

[fiery mantle]

guess what

[fiery mantle]

i got a 10 sec penalty when i boxed for new tires and to fix the drs

[floral apex]

well thats online racing for you

[fiery mantle]

AND MY DRS BROKE AGAIN ON LAP 19

NOW IT'S STUCK CLOSED

[floral apex]

did they duct tape it

[fiery mantle]

probably scotch taped it

[floral apex]

what your team did:

[fiery mantle]

how the fuck can my car be falling apart after all the resource points fernando spends on FUCKING DURABILITY UPGRADES

[broken sparrow]

true idk what I was expecting going for an online overtake at ascari

[fiery mantle]

real

about 7 laps left, so i'll just box for softs and try to get FL

i'm P19 anyway with a 10 sec penalty

[broken sparrow]

just retire or sum

there's no point to getting fastest lap

[fiery mantle]

me and alonso are 2nd and 3rd in the wdc

alonso really can win wdc

and atm, verstappen has the fastest lap, so i'll have to try to take points away from max

even if it is just 1 point

[broken sparrow]

ah okay

i get bored of career mode because I never find the best ai difficulty

so much effort because I will have to do it for every single track

because the ai are just complete trash at some tracks

[lyric otter]

hello

[lyric otter]

the ai at bahrain is really bad in my experience

the only overtakes they go for is drs passes on the pit straight

there is a bunch of drs trains

[floral apex]

I think the 'breaking point' that caused the overreaction was your correction in that you "turned into" him

[broken sparrow]

oh yeah I probably should have done something different to avoid further contact but its kind of just a natural reaction to countersteer when you're spinning

[broken sparrow]

maybe I'm just trash at bahrain but I always lose out to them on it

they are really slow at baku tho

[lyric otter]

on street circuits in general i would say

except singapur and jeddah they are zooming in those circuits

[keen brook]

They're slow as hell in Miami.

[lyric otter]

do you all have f1 24?

[keen brook]

yes

[floral apex]

I'm still on 23

[lyric otter]

i stuck to 23 because i tried 24 over at a friends place and i didn't like the handling at all

i have read that the ai on 24 is worse actually

[keen brook]

They really are.

It's literally just DRS trains, nothing else.

And they're OP in straight line speed again.

[fiery mantle]

what an absolutely cataclysmic race at silverstone, holy shit

[rigid hollow]

What sponsor mod do you guys use in F1 manager 24?

[fiery mantle]

it is

[floral apex]

I use the first one that came out

[broken sparrow]

nah I'm on 23 still

24 looks a lot worse

[fiery mantle]

yeah

[broken sparrow]

I'll buy it if it goes on a big sale but for now I'm fine with 23

[lyric otter]

man i am addicted to that flow state feeling

[fiery mantle]

imo, i'd say 24 looks better, but 23 races better yfm?

[lyric otter]

you are not thinking, just doing

[broken sparrow]

yeah I'd say that too but the gameplay is more important

[fiery mantle]

23 drives a lot better and the racing feels more "real"

i've had my absolutely stunning racing moments on f1 24 too though

[broken sparrow]

the way people describe the 24 handling I feel it will be awful on a controller

[lyric otter]

ERS on 24 is crazy i will say that though

[fiery mantle]

F1 24 feels like the wheel to wheel battling is better on some tracks, but the AI racing consistently is better on F1 23

[fiery mantle]

It's really not that bad tbh

[broken sparrow]

yeah I was sad when they removed ers like that after 2019

[lyric otter]

you have a lot more grip than on 23

is the main change i would say

[broken sparrow]

I already feel like I have enough grip on 23

don't need any more

[fiery mantle]

24 has more front grip, that's what it feels like

[lyric otter]

also sasuage kerbs are not nearly as dangerous

[fiery mantle]

Mega racing for P4 in my old career mode

[lyric otter]

kerbs in general are more forgiving on 24

[floral apex]

i remember in 23 i damaged my floor going over a sausage kerb in monza

[lyric otter]

the front end on 24 is crazy

sometimes you can just yank the wheel and the car will follow

[fiery mantle]

yeah

[broken sparrow]

can you tune the setup to have a less pointy front end tho and more rear

[fiery mantle]

yeahhhh kinda, but you'll be MUCH slower

[lyric otter]

just like this

[broken sparrow]

unfortunate

[lyric otter]

Max helped with the handling iirc and as you all probably know he is a front end merchant

[floral apex]

can you spin out if you eat too much kerb in 24

[lyric otter]

yes but the margin is way bigger than on 23

[broken sparrow]

the game will probably have a sale around christmas or something so ill buy it then

[lyric otter]

on 23 if you touch certain kerbs(particularly on high speeds corners) you will fucking die

[fiery mantle]

i'm kinda curious about what to do with my career for season 2,

do i stick with aston, considering that they've given me a competitive car and 3 wins so far coming into Hungary
or
do i try to look elsewhere and try to find greater success somewhere else

[lyric otter]

depends on what kinda career are you looking for

[fiery mantle]

aston lead the WCC because of me and fernandos efforts to consistently finish in the top 5-6 every race

[broken sparrow]

hungary chicane goes crazy
