[floral apex]

yeah thats kinda the main reason why i never really committed to using the app

If they had a way to link save files like the database editor that would be nice (but it would take a lot of work so i can see why)

[keen brook]

It would be so funny if Isack gets his race ban after Abu Dhabi.

1st race for Alpine, they straight have to replace him with their reserve.

[floral apex]

My calendar this year has Qatar and Abu Dhabi before the switch to the American races, with Brazil being the season closer

It's such a radical change to the calendar

[true panther]

someone should make a car with the main sponsor being allinol in f1m 24

that shit would be fire

[keen brook]

The update arrived, let's go!

for F1 Manager 2024

Now I can then finally continue with my save.

[rare robin]

alright i resumed where i left off..

and there's a crash 4 laps later

thats not fixed?

[keen brook]

Doesn't seem so.

F2 and F3 result screen isn't fixed as well.

[floral apex]

but the season change bugs should be fixed

[keen brook]

Fastest pit stop award not showing P11 isn't fixed.

[keen brook]

This isn't fixed.

[floral apex]

i guess the p11 thing is just a thing where the game loads regular career mode UI for myteam mode

[keen brook]

yeah

[floral apex]

alternate changelog entry: "told drivers that they can't just leave after saying they're staying"

[keen brook]

yeah

[keen brook]

That is really fixed.

Didn't happen in Qatar.

And Qatar is one of the track where this would've happened.

[floral apex]

i like how this is the only bug they fix for create a team mode

[rare robin]

yeah..

[floral apex]

garages positioned before the start-finish line were usually the most prone to getting timed out laps

[keen brook]

Yeah and that's the case in Qatar.

Because the line is so late.

[rare robin]

canada?

[keen brook]

yes

That's another one.

Where this would've happened before as well.

Monaco is another one.

I just remembered it did happen.

But I think only in Sprint quali.

[floral apex]

its kinda fixed

[raven fern]

well well it really is 2023 (its not like verstappen placed 10th or 9th in monaco just before spain)

(and its not like he's leading the WDC but ferrari is leading WCC)

alright what

sainz, norris and piastri behind them

but it was raining in Q1 and Q2 i think

that's why +10s

also gasly strating from P4

[floral apex]

TEN seconds?!?!?!?

[raven fern]

it was in Q1 100% but idk what abt Q2

since i didnt get out of it

lol

i have the best engine, 5th best aerodynamics and the rest is the worst from all teams

its "my team" if you wondered

it feels weird having him in front of you

norris bottled the start and blocked like 5 people omg

lmao red flag im starting from P7

[fiery mantle]

idk why but i just cannot play cockpit cam in f1 24 at all

[raven fern]

this long ass straight makes me takeover a lot of cars since im really fast on straights

[fiery mantle]

it feels so weird for some reason

[fiery mantle]

what team are you in?

or myteam?

[fiery mantle]

oh, you said it already 😭😂

[raven fern]

i tried going 100 AI (i played 70 before) but its way too much and i put it down to 80 lmao

[fiery mantle]

i have no clue why codies decided to adjust the visual steering lock in f1 24, the wheel turns so little compared to f1 23

[fiery mantle]

i feel like that is what's messing with my driving in cockpit cam

[floral apex]

i ran 80 ai in a race i did as yuki tsunoda and i was almost passed on every straight

[fiery mantle]

what kinda setup where you running and on what track 😭

[raven fern]

my inner Daniel Ricciardo woke up inside me

[fiery mantle]

oh btw, i won my australian gp i raced today

[feral path]

[fiery mantle]

2 Red Bull 1-2s in a row for the first 2 races

the gap between me and Max was like +0.065 at the line 😭

[raven fern]

LMAOO on the straight im faster with ERS than mercedes with DRS (side by side) (he probably also uses ERS)

[floral apex]

minimal downforce on monza

i still managed to win by making all of my passes in the chicane

[raven fern]

NOOOOOOOOOOO

i managed P3 from P22 (dont as how it happened it all happened really fast)

and my engine blew up

[fiery mantle]

unfortunate fr

[raven fern]

it's all thanks to Norris Bottling his start and blocking like 7 people and then a red flag when i was P7

who would've thought...

(yes i just told you i had the best engine on the grid lmao)

[rare robin]

any further and i won't have a fuel delta

that's enough fuel efficiency

[raven fern]

i wanted to do Stark Industries Racing team but Stark Industries Racing took all the space and since "X-förming" is my main sponsor i changed my team name to Stark Indust Xförming (so that it consists the name of main sponsor like in the real team)

[floral apex]

Have you tried SI Racing

[rare robin]

they didn't add the 4th DRS zone

[floral apex]

Not updated yet

Maybe F1M25

[raven fern]

ur goddamn smart

my only upgrade for canada failed

bruh

[fiery mantle]

i've kinda been thinking about making a new career tbh, do i make a vcarb one, williams one or mclaren? i've been thinking vcarb but i'm a bit unsure

[rare robin]

ok.. what

[raven fern]

haas

[rare robin]

franco isn't racing!

[fiery mantle]

why haas 😭😭

haas is lameeeeeee

[rare robin]

9 drivers have grid penalties

ouch

this should be fixed as soon as i start quali

[raven fern]

lmao i got a record in sector 1 on mediums while others are on softs (im still gonna be P22)

alright i got a question, what is ur favourite track to drive and what is ur best track to drive (i mean ur the fastest on it)

[raven fern]

lmao verstappen beat us all on hards

k-mag loosing to vesti (vesti scored only 4 points this season and only thanks to DNFs and penalties)

[red wadi]

It’s official, Ido Cohen is a 9 time Formula 1 champion 🔥🔥

[rare robin]

red bull are not doing well

going 3 wide at that corner is crazy enough

OH!

holy moly crap P2 on hards in FP1 in 3rd worst car

[rare robin]

alright here's current championships standings (2023 canada)

[rare robin]

oh more problems for mercedes

[rough dove]

F1 24 is on 50% sale on steam , should I get it? I don't have a controller so I will use mouse steering and since it's not supported is there any way to play with mouse steering? Maybe with steam workshops ?

[rare robin]

you can use a keyboard..

even though it says controller required

[floral apex]

damn 285% effectiveness

[rare robin]

17 projects???

more than i could ask for

[rough dove]

Keyboard steering sucks ... that's why I really want to avoid it 😅

[floral apex]

ok for a long time i thought this guy's name was bArtoleto

[rare robin]

hmmmm

what if i changed his name in my save

[floral apex]

i genuinely gaslit myself into thinking he was bArtoleto not bOrtoleto

[floral apex]

in your save his name is "bArtoleto"

[rare robin]

i don't have any other ideas for him

[floral apex]

look at this amazing talent pool i have

[red wadi]

Stanek has officially been dropped by IsrFast after his 4th season at the team

[floral apex]

fans: finally they fire someone

[red wadi]

[floral apex]

and then they get depressed again because they realized the person you fired was Stanek and not Cohen

[rare robin]

a DRS zone here would be crucial for overtaking

[red wadi]

Oscar Piastri agrees on a 1 year deal with IsrFast

[floral apex]

fans: is this enough to stop Cohen

[red wadi]

Probably not

[floral apex]

i've been so focused on keeping our car competitive that i haven't done a single research project yet

and the new regs affect all parts but are fortunately quite minor

every time i go to the teams menu i forget i have all of the 2026 livery mods installed lmao

now we have green Audi

[red wadi]

Official: IsrFast has just announced that the IsrFast SF1C Alpha will get a new name after 9 years

[floral apex]

oh and haas are still toyota

[rare robin]

audi kick sauber!

[red wadi]

IsrFast SF1C Twelve Spirit Of The Dragon EnReal Alpha TAY ExtremeSpeed

We are back with the long ass names🔥🔥🔥

[floral apex]

theres a different haas toyota livery but im not using it cuz its similar to my teams livery

wait hold up im gonna check one of these race replays to see if my livery mods affect those as well

[red wadi]

F1 fans: what do you mean “ExtremeSpeed”, are we done for?

[floral apex]

ima do the austria race replay

2024 race replay ft Red Bull Ford

[red wadi]

Ayo what, Cohen doesn’t want to extend his contract

[floral apex]

wow this race replay is so realistic

what a disaster for mercedes

bottas falls off the podium

sainz takes his place

gasly into the wall

he's still in the race

albon makes contact with alonso..

minor damage for albon, i think it's his front wing

piastri is chasing vandoorne down

gasly crashes the car (for real this time)

[golden hare]

It's there IRL

[rare robin]

i know

they didn't add it yet

[golden hare]

Drivers should rejoin the track faster, unless they're in the gravel. They shouldn't stop if they can just drive along off the racing line to get back up to speed.

[golden hare]

👍

[floral apex]

the thing is in f1 manager the drivers wait for all traffic to pass before rejoining

[rare robin]

we've got 2 punctures at once

albon and perez

canada turn 2 is 1 exception

they don't know how to rejoin properly

I am sad to announce the end of the (F1) IsrFast career, thank you all for making jokes and showing interest 🫡

[floral apex]

f1 manager default strategies are and always will be stupid amazing

[floral apex]

even you got bored of the endless domination

[red wadi]

Yes

It was fun while it lasted though

But yeah the domination made it less fun and I decided to stop

[floral apex]

i like how the track limits lines in Barcelona are still of the old layout

[keen brook]

lol

[red wadi]

Lmao

But iirc that’s the same irl

They are just there for the other layout

[keen brook]

Never noticed that in F1 24 tbh.

[red wadi]

Fair

[keen brook]

Neither did I in the manager though.

[red wadi]

I noticed it in MotoGP, I think. (Not sure though)

[keen brook]

So either I'm just blind or it's a F1 Manager only thing.

Both could be possible.

[hasty laurel]

I love f1 manager

[floral apex]

i just watched antonelli lose like 3 positions

I’m pretty sure MotoGP also has that, but i’m not sure haven’t touched that game in a year

bru Ocon is the only one who hasn't pitted

his 25-lap old hards were done for

i mean i must say his tire management is exceptional for getting the hards to last this long at Barcelona

theres wet weather coming
i think ocon might be looking to hold these tires until the switch to inters

although hes losing a LOT of time

ok stop everything there's a Audi in 4th

[keen brook]

Isack needs to survive quali and race with these components.

I don't buy new ones for just 1 race.

[floral apex]

the engine should be good

that gearbox is very worrying tho

[keen brook]

Gearbox is worrying.

yeah

ERS could become an issue as well.

[floral apex]

you might have to get some strategies ready in case that gives out

[keen brook]

Gabi's parts are fine though.

76% engine

43% ERS

53% gearbox

[floral apex]

well ERS shouldn't really be much of a problem cuz it doesnt necessarily require retiring if it fails

[keen brook]

oh yeah

[floral apex]

itll just hinder your pace and overtaking ability

hmmm i wonder who will take Max's seat when he leaves/retires

[keen brook]

We should be fine for 3rd in constructors though.

17 points ahead of McLaren

[floral apex]

as long as you're able to outscore them ye

[keen brook]

They aren't that quick anymore.

[floral apex]

theres are NOT the teams you'd expect to see in the top 10 lol

[keen brook]

Especially Norris is in horrendous form right now.

Zhou went wide.

[floral apex]

damn Antonelli just got out of a battle with Leclerc
only to end up in another battle with the other Alpine of Piastri

[keen brook]

lol

for fuck sake

Gabi is 16th, Isack 19th and now they fight each other on their 2nd run.

great

Traffic bunched them together.

yeah he is

Antonelli wins the Miami GP!

Update: Schumacher replaces Doohan (I was “cooking” a livery)

[floral apex]

pitting under the safety car paid off

and im pretty sure schumacher has a head model

is the championship fight on

[red wadi]

More exciting than even 1 season I did in my IsrFast save😭😭

[floral apex]

the constructor's tho is uh a bit secured at this point

[red wadi]

🔥🔥

[floral apex]

this also happens to be when Max started his 12-race win streak last season so hopefully we have a proper fight

[red wadi]

Cohen had like a 42 win streak at one point, this save genuinely seems fun

[floral apex]

the season change driver transfer bug allowed this to happen

oh wow even more points

[red wadi]

😭

That would’ve been not so nice to have for me lol

Anyways imma go

[floral apex]

i voted for just to see what would happen

[restive island]

Ngl playing own team career is a good game but

Until now liveries never change every year

Which looks bit boring

[raven fern]

really close top 6 (im in 7th best car but spielberg is my 2nd best track)

and im really good on straights

the car just sucks at cornering

[rare robin]

ah wellington straight

[golden hare]

what have i just witnessed

[rare robin]

gasly (who is very hard to see) went through the barrier?

this is what the map looked like

[rare robin]

cars crashing at 400 km/h

[floral apex]

That was the first Miami race ive done that wasn't interrupted by a red flag

and the only red flag was in FP1

[rare robin]

gasly just flies by

[keen brook]

Ollie's rating went up.

[rare robin]

another red flag

vandoorne just pitted though

[keen brook]

What the fuck?

I always met the engagement target.

[floral apex]

yeah that one's a bit odd

[keen brook]

Yet my main sponsor is disappointed in me.

[floral apex]

Im not expert in that but it might have something to do with performance reliance

[keen brook]

Well, we literally were 3rd.

[vernal epoch]

Whos at fault?

[keen brook]

We are way above every target.

[rare robin]

uhh yuki turns into a beyblade.. somehow

[raven fern]

this turned out into the 1st win of the career (even though its a sprint race, my fast lap times + red flag after ai did its think resulted in a win with around 0.1s of lead over perez)

[floral apex]

Ah yes physics
Mate gained speed after losing control

[rare robin]

vandoorne gets hit by tsunoda in his spinning form

he's already had enough problems..

[keen brook]

Damn, making the cars this fast makes every mistake a huge crash.

I like how the big technical change is the only new reg change for 2026.

no sporting and no financial reg change

But now I'm very excited for the 2026 silly season.

[rare robin]

MATE WE JUST RESTARTED

HOW DID THAT HAPPEN

lawson didn't even cross the start line yet

SC redeployed..

alright here's the replay:

[keen brook]

With Isack leaving the team and Ollie joining the team after just 1 year we swap back from Honda RBPT to Ferrari engines.

[rare robin]

what am i looking at..

[feral path]

That’s so weird to look at

[floral apex]

I mean uh

in my save we had Alpines, Williams, Saubers, Haases and even Stroll in the top 10 behind us so

and then mclaren and red bull were almost back of the grid

[keen brook]

Ollie arrives at the team as the higher rated driver lol.

Ollie 79, Gabi 78

rip Isack with his 88 rating

But well, good luck for him with Alpine.

Our car looks decent.

1st in top speed, tire management and engine cooling

[red wadi]

I just realised, I’m using the wrong livery for my GerFast save

[keen brook]

3rd in low, medium, high speed and dirty air tolerance

7th in acceleration

[red wadi]

Imma cook some lore for GerFast rq

[keen brook]

And we start into the season with -6.7 million.

But thankfully there's pre-season sponsor money.

[rare robin]

oh they go off

[red wadi]

Hm, I think I know what place i’m GerFast putting in

[rare robin]

SARGE GETS A PUNCTURE

he was P4..

[keen brook]

After 2 seasons we end our partnership with Fero NRG and present the Bansana Group as our new primary sponsor.

Damn, we get 40.8 million immediately.

21.7 million engagement

23.1 million race day

[red wadi]

ANNOUNCEMENT: GerFast has presented their factory near Augsburg, the company has announced the livery will feature the Bavarian colours (RedDawn back with another Blue/White livery)

[rare robin]

alright there we go..

another lawson victory

could have been a 1-2 if it wasn't for tsunoda

[red wadi]

Things to expect from a RedDawn f1 manager save:
countryname’s first 3 lettersFast
Blue/White livery
👀

[raven fern]

the game didnt save and i had to replay it but i won anyway

[rare robin]

nah we got austin

[floral apex]

I dont know what kinda logo to cook for a germab team mainly cuz theres no immediately obvious german symbol

oi @keen brook give me a german symbol that would work as a logo

[red wadi]

Fair enough

Btw, I already have something planned for S2

[floral apex]

"I can't cook a german team logo"
proceeds to ask the first german guy i could think of

[red wadi]

Fuck it imma use the IsrFast livery for S1

[red wadi]

You could use an eagle or something for Bavaria for example

[floral apex]

⬜⬜⬜⬜
🟦🟦🟦🟦

thats also the bavarian flag

dont know how i could use it tho

[red wadi]

Me when I need colours for my team be like:

[floral apex]

what if i just used a giant rhombus

[red wadi]

Idek what that is

[red wadi]

Ahhh

[rare robin]

hmm we have the coat of arms..

[red wadi]

ANNOUNCEMENT: Ido Cohen announced as GerFast manager

[floral apex]

ah yes this is very bavaria

[rare robin]

LOL

[rich pasture]

What time do f1 games usually drop?

[red wadi]

What in the F1 2011-2013 driver test

[heavy shoal]

like june

[rich pasture]

Assuming offseason

[heavy shoal]

June 2025 probably

[rich pasture]

Cool, tysm

[heavy shoal]

or May

[floral apex]

usually within the first half of the season

[heavy shoal]

yea

[floral apex]

typically before the season break(s)

[heavy shoal]

np

[red wadi]

ANNOUNCEMENT: GerFast will use Mercedes-AMG engines for S1

[rare robin]

i keep coming across eagles..

[floral apex]

i mean i could totally just take one of my isrfast logos from before and just throw a stylized eagle in place of the star of david

[rare robin]

i wonder why do germans use them

[red wadi]

Wait you just made me cook an idea

[floral apex]

uhh cuz eagle and eagles are cool

[red wadi]

Fair enough

Time to edit the grid to what I had in my IsrFast save

[floral apex]

so the lore is ido cohen retires from f1 and starts a german team

[red wadi]

ANNOUNCEMENT: IsrFast has just announced that their German based company “GerFast” will join F1 as a brand new team, IsrFast announced that they’ll focus on WRC 👀

[red wadi]

Somewhat like that

[floral apex]

so does isrfast leave f2

*f1 at that point

[red wadi]

I forgot I renamed Max “Christophnolan Collins”

[floral apex]

lmao

[red wadi]

Yes, swapping commitment to WRC

GerFast will replace them, EnReal will also leave F1

[floral apex]

f1 fans celebrating like crazy

because isrfast finally left

[red wadi]

X servers boutta crash

Wait, Nico will now become a lad named “Gulian Bergstrøm”

I forgot I changed so many names lol

[red wadi]

WRC crying rn

[floral apex]

f1 fans hoping the new team doesnt dominate

[keen brook]

new livery and race suits for 2026

[floral apex]

hmm yes german f1 team

[keen brook]

lol

I didn't even notice that.

It actually is a Ferrari x McLaren livery.

[hasty laurel]

Only if Goatifi was still in the game I could of made him and Sargent a dream team

[keen brook]

With Ollie being a former FDA driver and Gabi a former McLaren academy driver.

[red wadi]

https://tenor.com/view/ratatouille-meme-memes-reads-letter-gif-20713760

F1 fans reading that the team is IsrFast owned^

[keen brook]

And a change I made to 2025 is the rear from black to carbon fiber.

and obviously from Red Bull to Ferrari color

[red wadi]

final announcement: GerFast is looking for an agreement to build a track near Augsburg, the project will roughly cost 2.6 billion usd

[keen brook]

Now it's time to check out what happened on the driver market.

I literally don't know what happened yet.

[floral apex]

so what happened

[keen brook]

Now I went through the whole thing.

and holy shit

There has once again some crazy stuff happened.

There are especially a lot more affiliates.

I forgot to check engine manufacturers.

oops

[floral apex]

is there a way to check engine suppliers in game

[keen brook]

yes

If you go to the calendar, select a track and then go to the 2nd last option.

There it shows how much components every driver has used.

And it also lists teams and their manufacturers.

so now with the correct manufacturers

That's the 2026 F1 grid:
Red Bull Honda RBPT: Leclerc, Sainz (affiliates Cowell, Lee, Jensen, Dunne, Zagazeta, Ramos, van Hoepen, Tsolov)
Ferrari: Piastri, Hamilton (affiliates Jacob, McGuire, Maeda, Kabir, Lacorte, Inthraphuvasak, Antonelli, Bedrin, O'Ward, Aron)
BVBOcon38 F1 Team Ferrari: Bearman, Bortoleto (affiliates Pulling, Tramnitz, Browning, Barnard, Goethe)
McLaren Honda RBPT: Pérez, Ocon (affiliates Vargas, Packer, Nakamura-Berta, Chambers, Loake, Smith, Mansell, Martí)
Aston Martin Honda RBPT: Tsunoda, Stroll (affiliates Ugochukwu, Bustamante, Sztuka, León, Montoya, Stanek)
Mercedes: Albon, Alonso (affiliates Biddiscombe, Nobels, Wurz, Dürksen, Stenshorne, Minì)
RB Mercedes: Magnussen, Zhou (affiliates Shields, Voisin, Miyata, Beganovic)
Williams Honda RBPT: Hülkenberg, Vesti (affiliates Sikora, Lindblad, Wisnicki, Iwasa)
Kick Sauber Honda RBPT: Sargeant, Gasly (affiliates Schreiner, Doohan)
Alpine Renault: Hadjar, Bottas (affiliates Oedekoven, Weug, Bühler, Colapinto)
Haas Ferrari: Russell, Pourchaire (affiliates Hausmann, Boya, E. Fittipaldi)

That's now the 2026 F2 grid:
PREMA: Lee, Tramnitz
MP: Minì, Crawford
Invicta: Stanek, Aron
ART: Martí, McGuire
Trident: Maini, Martins
Rodin: E. Fittipaldi, Hauger
PHM: Tsolov, Barnard
Hitech: Verschoor, Dürksen
VAR: Cowell, Beganovic
Campos: O'Sullivan, Colapinto
DAMS: Goethe, Vargas

And that's now the 2026 F3 grid:
Hitech: Stenshorne, Zagazeta, Villagómez
Trident: van Hoepen, Jensen, Mansell
PREMA: Pulling, Prior, Wiggins
Campos: Loake, Sikora, Oedekoven
PHM: Packer, Voisin, Maeda
ART: Fornaroli, Boya, Miyata
VAR: Lindblad, Dunne, León
Jenzer: Sztuka, Chambers, Esterson
Rodin: Smith, Wurz, Meguetounif
MP: Ramos, Bedrin, Montoya

[heavy shoal]

dude

[keen brook]

Correa and Cordeel retired.

Wenzel, Gallardo, Lawson, Norris and Verstappen are now free agents.

Yes, Norris and Verstappen are free agents.

I really needed to laugh as I saw this.

[heavy shoal]

as they should

[keen brook]

[heavy shoal]

they need to think about what they did in Austria

[keen brook]

Red Bull just has the Ferrari line-up now.

McLaren has Checo and Esteban reunited.

And with that Checo is back on the grid.

Logan is back on the grid.

Haas got rid of their awful 2 62 rated drivers line-up.

Tbf Gallardo grew up to a 70 rated driver.

Wenzel still is only 65 rated.

And Daniel is still a free agent.

With 36 years and 79 rated I doubt he will come back.

I'm a bit sad that Maloney is still a free agent as well.

Also Luke didn't get a seat as the F3 champion.

I thought having the F3 champion as affiliate pretends that to happen.

But it doesn't.

So he is now only my affiliate without racing in any series.

[keen brook]

I just now as the mail come in noticed that PREMA has as all women line-up in F3.

[keen brook]

Pau Rivera's, Carlo Cristofori's and Abbi's ratings went up.

Gabi's rating went up.

I've invested all the money we had (over 30 million) into finally fixing the facilities.

We are now already down to 6.3 millions.

But the income looks better now so I hope I can now manage the finances better over the season.

[keen brook]

Finances are a lot beter now.

We have now 7 million monthly income.

There are tensions between Gabi and Pau Rivera.

And now as the team center is upgraded to level 4 is has 236% efficiency.

Which means a weekly growth of personnel by +189%.

[floral apex]

How did Perez keep a seat but Max didn't

the I R O N Y

[keen brook]

The thing is, Checo even returned to the grid.

[floral apex]

and why do Alonso and Albon keep joining forces

at Mercedes

[keen brook]

He was a free agent in 2025.

[floral apex]

I got that in my save ad well

[keen brook]

Mercedes and RB kept their line-ups.

[floral apex]

cuz of the goat haas lineup

[keen brook]

Leclerc and Sainz teammates again at Red Bull

[floral apex]

Leclerc had a chance at Red Bull and then he got replaced by Sainz

[keen brook]

For me they just both replaced either of the Red Bull drivers.

And the affiliate transfers are crazy.

All teams have now affiliates again.

Ferrari filled their academy completely with 10 drivers.

also Pérez and Ocon teammates again

at McLaren

[floral apex]

Percon

[floral apex]

Affiliate transfers always seem to be crazy in this game

[keen brook]

Ollie will drive with the number 38 and Vesti with the number 42.

Also Sainz will drive with the number 1 as the reigning champion.

[floral apex]

i like how bearman ends up using the number he used with ferrari this year

Breaking: Hamilton to retire at the end of the 2027 season

[keen brook]

I think the 38 for Ollie is hard-coded.

For aarava he also had the 38.

[floral apex]

i have him as 73 tho

[keen brook]

well

nevermind then

But what's actually nice.

My team is BVBOcon38 F1 Team.

And one of the 2 drivers drives with the 38.

[floral apex]

and the other driver isn't Ocon

[keen brook]

[floral apex]

its time for the team's home race in Montreal

[keen brook]

Also because for returning drivers losing their numbers seems to be a thing Sargeant and Pérez both returned with their original numbers.

[floral apex]

my save had a seizure with the affiliates i think

cuz Gasly and Ricciardo came back running 51 and 59

Leclerc's using 21 and Alonso used 10

[keen brook]

Yeah, for me Sargeant returned with the number 2 and Pérez with the 11.

so all normal

[floral apex]

i feel like starting a save after update 1.6 really took a toll on the events and stuff

[keen brook]

And from the transfers I got leaked already as I watched in scouting before already all these happened so this at the start of a new season bug is really fixed.

Because I saw already Russell and Pourchaire being the new Haas line-up.

[floral apex]

Hamilton's move to Ferrari is meant to be hardcoded... and then he proceeded to stay at Merc

[keen brook]

For me he did that move.

And now Piastri joined him at Ferrari.

[floral apex]

did starting a save after 1.6 break my game

[keen brook]

When I return to my Haas save I'll find out if it's a post 1.6 thing.

[floral apex]

i mean im not complaining

these bugs somehow made it funnier

i just broke the database editor by opening two instances of it lmao

[keen brook]

lol

I actually wanna start this new season already as I want to know how good our car is but it's 2 am already so that's not a good idea at all.

[floral apex]

so youre gonna wait for it

[keen brook]

At least I have in FGC done everything for the new season already.

[floral apex]

cant be a canadian gp without rain

[keen brook]

So I have nice graphics again.🔥

And as in last 2 races there weren't penalties at all, Hadjar's 10 penalty points are now Alpine's and not my issue.

[floral apex]

Alpine: hey wait this driver we just got is at risk of being banned, do you know anything-
You: NOT MY PROBLEM

[keen brook]

for real

At least they have now with Colapinto a better replacement than with León.

Well, doesn't actually matter as I can't replace them in-game.

But lore-wise they have now a better affiliate that can jump in as a replacement for 1 race.

As Magnussen also has 10 penalty points.

RB now has own affiliates to replace him.

Their highest rated should be Beganovic.

So Beganovic and Colapinto could have their F1 debuts soon.

[floral apex]

Gabi will get track time in Brazil
Hadjar in Belgium
Stanek already got time in Austria
Verschoor likely to get time in Hungary (I don't want both drivers skipping FP2 before the finale race and Zandvoort is a sprint)
and Pulling already got time in Spain but i'll probably put her in the car again in Brazil

[keen brook]

For me it's simple.

1 of my 3 British affiliates gets Gabi's car in Silverstone.

As I have now with Ollie a British driver, only 1 can get a FP1.

But that also means.

[floral apex]

why the heck is your academy mostly british lmao

[keen brook]

I will probably now do a livery in the British colors for Silverstone for Ollie's home race instead of the aarava livery.

well

I have now 5 affiliates.

3 are British.

2 German

If Aron wouldn't had still a contract with Ferrari until 2026, I also would have now an Estonian affiliate.

Ad now he does the 2026 F2 season as the 2025 F2 champion.

[floral apex]

antonelli did the same in my save

[keen brook]

Whilst the 2025 F3 champion Luke didn't get a seat at all.

So he's just now my affiliate without racing anywhere.

[floral apex]

none of the teams in my save have an affiliate rated higher than 80

[keen brook]

For me Ferrari has.

with Antonelli

81 rated

[floral apex]

every team except ferrari and audi have only their main drivers rated higher than 80
mclaren only has gasly as their 80+ rated driver

[keen brook]

or maybe higher already

[floral apex]

hamilton fans gonna be very sad after this season
hes retiring from the sport

[keen brook]

damn

[half forum]

i just realized how long your fucking name is

holy shit

its like extraphilxcaoius or whatever

[floral apex]

he finished 10th in 2024 with Mercedes
he finished 11th in 2025 also with Mercedes
he finished 21st in 2026 with Alpine
and he's currently 6th in 2027 with Williams

[keen brook]

Damn, that's a crazy career path.

[floral apex]

He's doing better at Williams than he did at Mercedes lmao

[keen brook]

lol

[floral apex]

I just watched max pass his former teammate checo in fp1

Lawson just got a 3 place grid penalty for hitting Piastri

[keen brook]

For me Lawson is a free agent once again.

After getting signed as Aston's only affiliate mid-season in 2025.

[floral apex]

damn

at least he got his long awaited red bull seat in my save lmao

only thing is red bull has lost its pre-2026 performance

and the teams that are backmarkers today are regularly in the points

[keen brook]

Lawson has a tough time in my save.

And Maloney still hasn't got a seat.

After driving for us in 2024 no one wants him.

I feel a bit sad for him.

[floral apex]

but then haas decided to take both of your (former) f3 affiliates cuz why tf not apparently

[keen brook]

He also has a 82 rating.

He actually is higher rated than both my current drivers.

[floral apex]

that just made me realize he doesnt have a seat in my save either

[keen brook]

damn

Well, in my save he was already a F1 driver and therefore has a quite high rating.

Yet no one wants him.

[floral apex]

just checked the database editor
Maloney is Williams' highest rated affiliate at 78

and is now the one using #10

[keen brook]

Whilst Vesti now joined the grid with a like 77 or 78 rating.

[floral apex]

Vesti also being Ferrari's highest rated affiliate in my save

[keen brook]

Williams literally could've gone with Maloney instead.

[floral apex]

oh

is being used by bianca bustamante rn lol

[keen brook]

lol

[floral apex]

kmag's almost retired anyway i dont think he's gonna re enter the sport

34 years old and only 79 rated

paul aron is using 33

[keen brook]

With new generic drivers as affiliates there are some unusual nationalities now represented.

[floral apex]

wait

why do most of these drivers have 33 as their number

[keen brook]

Like McLaren has an affiliate from Costa Rica.

[floral apex]

like 43 drivers have driver number 33 for some reason

[keen brook]

or Williams a Slovakian affiliate

[floral apex]

WHY IS 33 THE ONLY OPTION WHAT

my game is so broken everyone can use 33 for some reason

[keen brook]

lol

I guess something broke with the database editor.

Which is the reason why you have that affiliates stealing main drivers' numbers away.

[floral apex]

iirc this didnt happen in my other save

yeah my other save is okay i can select a whole bunch of numbers

either something went really wrong with the database editor or the 1.6 update broke a lot more than we thought

[keen brook]

Wait, when did that happen?

If it wasn't a reaction to what just happened maybe that could be the reason?

[floral apex]

if anything im just gonna have to roll with it cuz i dont want to start another fresh save

Although i could run a test sim only save to see if its my game breaking

thats a lot of blue

[keen brook]

There's only a custom team with another blue tone missing.

[floral apex]

VER P1, ANT P2 after Canada quali

4 blue teams (if Mercedes color is considered blue) and two red teams

tire wear moment

[steady tusk]

the blessed timeline

[idle stump]

If everything go's to plan after checo and sainz contacts are up I feel like sainz to rb and checo retired and the Williams seat go's to lawson

That's my look on it

Or max to merc or aston

[floral apex]

i think im watching the most boring race ever

its all wet
the inters can last an entire race

no drs

there are a lot of overtakes happening tho but nothing real major

and we're also up by 8 seconds

actually NEVER MIND

Hamilton, Vesti and Pourchaire crashed
Red Flag on Lap 25

sorry not Vesti, it was Hauger

all 3 are out of the race

Pourchaire recieves a 10 second penalty for taking out Hamilton and Hauger

ANT P1, VER P2 after Canada GP

WDC Update, P21 and P22 are Albon and Gasly each with 0 points

WCC Update

Nobody pitted so it just gave points in team order lol

well this is still broken

[pallid latch]

power of keyboard

[upper skiff]

bro definitely hit that wall

[keen brook]

Yeah, had that already as well, that's actually a bit rigged.

[keen brook]

Tsunoda spun into the wall and out of Q3.

Then Tsunoda had a gearbox failure, taking him out of the race.

Then Gasly had an engine failure, taking him out of the race.

And then Stroll and Norris came together, taking Stroll out of the race.

Race goals are now a lot higher as well, very promising.

[keen brook]

Martí replaced Ocon in FP1 at McLaren, Cowell replaced Sainz in FP1 at Red Bull, Stanek replaced Stroll in FP1 at Aston Martin, Doohan replaced Gasly in FP1 at Kick Sauber, Beganovic replaced Zhou in FP1 at RB, Colapinto replaced Bottas in FP1 at Alpine and Vargas replaced Pérez in FP1 at McLaren.

and also 1-2 for us, very promising

and that even with the loss of our star driver

I think this car really is a rocketship and can compete for the title.

With our drivers growing over the course of the season I think we can get both titles.

[keen brook]

Gabi spun.

thankfully no damage on the car

Pérez went wide.

Well, Hadjar out in Q1 with Alpine, what he could've done in our car.

crash

Leclerc and Alonso

Alonso out of Q2
Leclerc severe damage

Q2 over

Gabi locked up.

thankfully no damage on the car

Bahrain qualifying result of my My Team career

Strategies are for both .

It's lights out and away we go!

Gabi spun.

thankfully no damage on the car

But he's now down to 3rd.

2.299 for Ollie

2.236 for Gabi

Zhou locked up.

[fiery mantle]

anyone know if there's a way to disable the f1 dial in only cockpit view?

in f1 24
