I LED THE WHOLE WAY
START TO FINISH
UNTIL
THE LAST CORNER
HE BARGED THROUGH, BROKE MY FRONT WING AND STORMED TO IT BY 0.2 FUCKING SECONDS
I've finished the race now
Absolutely no way im trying that again
the game gave oscar piastri dotd
absolutely no fucking way
I'd DSQ him before giving him DOTD
or at least penalise
virtanen: tries to make a corner, hits a wall and gets sent off track
FIA: warning, you cut the corner/exceeded track limits!!
piastri: literally destroys virtanen's wing and chance of winning at the very final corner after he'd led the whole way
FIA: š¤
vesti is getting dotd for climbing 7 spots up to p6
š
the next career mode i do remind me to either not have jeddah on the calendar or just sim it
he learned the "Back off or we crash" philosophy
my goal wasnt even to win by the time i tried for the last time, it was just to finish the race without getting completely finished
you lost the winglet or like a whole section of the wing?
i dont remember and quite frankly i dont wanna watch it back
Usually the AI is not so aggressive in my experience
I actually wish they were more aggressive tbh
yee. Still no 2nd confirmed driver tho
XDPU 2033 Saudi Arabia Race Result
tbh now im a little calmer that is actually a kinda insane end
especially since its oscar that narrowly beat the new lead driver of the team that replaced him after his best season
WHAT
XDPU 2033 Driver Standings after Saudi Arabia š„
three way tie for p2 is insane
just give the title to virtanen already
Btw i snacked drs
it may be 2 races into Veikkos first full season but yeah bros too op 
even tho im in first
whattt
XDPU 2033 Constructor Standings after Saudi Arabia
aston martin really is just nico Hülkenberg racing
Tsunoda and magnussen out
they were in 4th and 5th
Hülkenberg not magnussen
sainz inherits 5th. Magnussen 4th
wrong guy
3 way fight for p1
Me (1st rn)
Hamilton (2nd)
Gasly (3rd)
AMAZING DOUBLE PASS FROM KMAG FOR 2ND
BIG CRASH
GASLY, SAINZ AND PIASTRI OUT
Riccardo inherits 4th. Lawson 5th. Russell 6th
BOTTAS OUT AT THE SAME PLACE
zero pace
box box
safety car has been deployed, Piastri is out
its a red flag
he caused a traffic jam
Hamilton out
Ocon collides with DOohan
bru the strategy keeps disabling itself
Daniel Ricciardo leads the Mexico City GP 
bro Yuki's fighting the race leader Leclerc
Charles Leclerc wins the Mexico GP!
JUST LOOK AT HOW CLOSE
Red Bull have secured the 2024 constructor's championship here in Mexico!
MOST DNFS IN A ROW WAS BEOKEN
ITS NOW 6
FROM ALONSO
who btw is now last in the wdc despute having a 3rd place
Max
38 focus
Yo anyone know a great league i could joine for f1 league racing
current save vs other save
our quali results are falling off too
what even is with the colouring there
Actually crazy
im wdc season 1
6 DNFs
and the wcc
4 points behind mclaren in 1st
pereu dnfed
nortis out of the points
me and lawson in 1-3
THE FUCK DID I NAME THEM???
pereu?? nortis??
albon in 2nd btw
pereu sounds like a cursed version of checo if he was european
nortis just sounds like some Scandinavian tech company
jesus
alfa is last
with 81 points
then aston and haas with 90
alpha with 91
alpine 94
i used the podium coloring to represent Q1, Q2 and Q3
ohhh right
race results so far
that actually makes sense ngl
im trying to get albon
Doohan, Zhou and Sargeant: the only three drivers that have been consistently worse than my team
that 0.05 million made all the difference
damn the world champions want nothing to do with you being in the sport
Should I make a season results championship table for XDPU for 2031 or 2032 first?
man fake retired
anyway
Alonso-Gone
Lawson-Aston
Albon-Audi
Vesti-Williams
Hamilton-Free agent
Leclerc-Red Bull
Riccardo-Ferrari (yes)
Pourchaire-Alphatauri
?
31
ima switch out my sponsor mod again for 2025 S2
ooh nice the database editor shows a secured championship
this is the dominance red bull wished they had in 2024
oh wait i just remembered
when i went to make 2032
like all the driver changes and that
i accidentally did it in my 2031 fgc file
thank goodness i posted every result in here tho
bruh lmao
i dont make tables for constructors championships but for the drivers championship i still have ample info
i can search "2031" in here and find all the results
yep its here
Audi has not made a good start. Being the 9th best team
mechanical problem in quali
im watching albon do his auali lap
however hes behind a mclaren
purple sector 2 for albone
rainy quali
alš¦“
Should I start adding the 2031 results to the table now or should I do China 2033 now?
maybe add the results first
is there a way to get a certain team to have contract talks with me in f1 24? I'm currently in vcarb and want to go to redbull, but they won't approach me
i have 24 columns of 22 results to add so i might not end up doing the china race tonight
nope. All random
well not entirely
and i can't approach redbull myself?
itās performance based
yeah i know, im currently beating yuki (just got p4 in rain race in austria) and winning pretty much all 3 of my rivalries
i mean car performance
wdym?
like the RnD performance
but what does that affect if rb approaches me or not
RnD. If RB and Vcarb are similar in car performance you have a higher chance of getting approached
its a stupid system
oh okay interresting
so most likely RB won't approach me even if i beat Perez
yup
weird that you can't just approach a team yourself like in real life
however if your driver rating is good and you put in performances. Then you can maybe join the team during the contract renewal period
like i went from williams to mercedes
hm okay, sadly i didn't do an f2 season so im only on 69 rated rn even tho i got multiple points finishes now
hopefully near the end of the season redbull aproaches me
they might be available as an option when you end the season
One thing that helped me is that i won the wdc
in a williams?
Yeah
wait can you choose what team to go to at the end of a season?
maybe your ai is a little to low lmao
only from a select amount
oh okay
i raised it for that season to 100
oh okay, i played 2 player career in williams with a friend also at 100 ai. But that's a little too low for me so i ended p4 in the championship (verstappen won almost every race that season)
the problem was that we started that career when i just had bought f1 24 so in the first couple of races i was still getting used to the game
i dont think i can do superscript in google sheets soooo
tbf i ignored poles and fastest laps in my charts so
or at least i think i made poles bolded but ignored fastest laps
fair
I also completely ignore sprint results in my stuff lol
im listening to some songs on the f1 24 soundtrack while im doing this
fair enough
me and my friend are basically driving with the same quali pace
also hamilton and stroll almost knocked us out
i'm half done, yk what im gonna at least partially do china 2033 now
Heated.
so this guy decides to park here, 100m from the finish, because apparently he is out of fuel
like actually screw this game, I was about to gain a point š
Out SQ1 šØš³
17.
Martins
18.
Russell
19.
Daruvala
20.
Maloney
21.
Sainz
22.
Zhou
and this is why i ensure the fuel deltas are at least positive in the final 2 laps
the more you know, too bad I had to learn this one the hard way
Vesti P5 in SQ2 š„
Vesti is truly showing why he should stay
fr
Not the best in terms of performance, but definitely very reliable
@SunburstXMR on X:
Results in Sprint quali:
Veikko P1
Frederik P5
yeah, 1-5 again in sq3
i think it was like a 1-7 or 1-8 in sq1 too
5 lap sprint
I'll do that now, and maybe then the GP (or at least quali) later
virtannen
Hamilton-Verstappen second row btw š„š„
Yo
Where can I find some people to play f1 24 with?
Virtanen wins the Sprint!
XDPU 2033 China Sprint Result
weather
Ocon went wide in T4
exactly the way i'd do it lmao
another false P1 in FP1
welp
Leclerc takes sprint pole for Brazil
the Sprint has been red flagged, Lawson and Hulkenberg have crashed at T2
15 and 19 after Brazil sprint
and another 19-20 in quali
wow very wet
starting on the inters was for now a W
the race started in inters weathers and the full wets wore out too quickly
ok huge risk now but we're staying out on inters
the track's expected to go back to inters conditions in a few laps
track water is falling now
hello
now las paingas
Out in Q1:

Sainz
18.
Daruvala

Pourchaire

Martins
Sargeant has really turned himself around in the time since his last Ferrari stint, wow.
FP3 has been red flagged, Ricciardo has crashed
"He may not have found an improvement on the last run, but he didn't need to! Veikko Virtanen takes pole position for the Chinese Grand Prix in 2033!"
Three poles on the bounce, 4 in his career!
HS: Nicely done Veikko! First lap was enough for pole, Max was 0.453 behind!
VV: Whew! Thought that was gonna be closer! Everyone was back out.. guess I didn't need to be!
HS: Truly following in the footsteps of your predecessor, Veikko, that is absolutely incredible. Four pole positions from what will be 6 starts in F1.
VV: What can I say? Gotta honour my idol. I know you're listening, DP. Don't worry, I am NOT letting the title leave our factory!
really
safety car deployed right after yuki's pit stop
as if it couldnt get worse.
Doohan crashed out
safety car out again right after it ended
Sainz and Piastri crashed
this is more insane than expected
we have one stop left to make
Its a McLaren and a Ferrari out
That opens up two spots in the top 10
Just need to hope for a red flag or more safety cars
sunwest v sauber for P9 is a battle i never expected to see
what even is happening right now
WE'RE GAINING?!?!?
safety car deployed on lap 42!
and its potentially a red flag too!
Albon is out and its a red flag!
12-13 after Las Vegas
two races and one sprint to go
Max leads the championship by 49 points
does anyone have any good playlists to listen to while driving? preferably with songs like real gone from the best movie ever cars (peak music lowkey)
ah yes the track temp is ???*C
ESTEBAN OCON MAKES IT TO SQ2!
Oocn P14, Tsunoda P20 after qatar sprint quali
Verstappen takes Sprint pole
Ricciardo just crashed into Esteban
Ricciardo +5 penalty
Hamilton DNFs
16-21 after the Qatar Sprint
Ocon P19, Tsunoda P20 after Qatar quali
Verstappen is on pole in Qatar
safety car deployed, Sainz and Alonso have crashed
Sainz +5 second penalty
lol floating tires
its still mystery temperature on the track
oop Zhou engine failure
Max Verstappen wins the Qatar GP!
Tsunoda P15, Ocon P16
Max Verstappen is the 2024 Formula 1 Champion!
now to complete 2024 with Abu Dhabi.
Red Bull secured the constructor's in Mexico and Max secured the drivers' in Qatar
Ocon spins at T12
What is differential?
wow we love the 19-20 qualifying position
we'll be starting 17-18 as Stroll has a grid penalty and Albon will be starting from the pit lane
...seriously
restarted that one, we cant afford a double dnf
Doohan and Bottas collided
Doohan is out of the race
14-15 after Abu Dhabi
and this concludes the 2024 season
wow 10th in the pit stop
ok ayao
well this is annoying
it wont let me progress cuz i dont have a driver 1
so whats thus
well when in doubt
turn to mods
ah i hate that issue
I shall get back on F1 Manager again
Thereās a weird glitch though some text boxes just donāt show text so Iām not entirely sure what iām clicking
that usually happens when you have a rename mod on from an older version\
like a team rename or sponsor rename mod
Oh
ok fixed my driver issues
we will in fact be retaining Ocon for 2025
is my board on crack or something
new sponsor loadout for 2025 (cuz i installed a new sponsor mod (again))
im using the 2025 season dlc mod now
its good
im making a new save
also which mod is it for the 2025 timing tower?
the same 2025 DLC mod
oh
slight livery change before the opener
basically just moved a few sponsors around and added some more white
full WDC results for 2024
full WCC results for 2024 (side note red bull almost damn got 1000 points)
2023 ahh season
I got up to the last Virtanen race of 31 with the table
Who's fault is it?
The track just turned in on the ferrari
i think its quite obvious in the case that youre actually serious
it's clearly your fault
Bro became torro rosso
Can you pwease send the mod?
now i will go over the driver changes for my 2025 season
no changes from either Red Bull or McLaren
Hamilton moves to Ferrari replacing Sainz
Magnussen moves to Mercedes replacing Hamilton
Perez joins Aston Martin replacing Alonso
Gasly moves to VCARB replacing Ricciardo
Sainz moves to Sunwest replacing Tsunoda
Sargeant moves to Haas replacing Magnussen
Zhou moves to Williams replacing Sargeant
Sauber runs an all new lineup of Ricciardo/Christensen
and Bottas moves to Alpine replacing Gasly
Leaving F1 after 2024 are Tsunoda and Alonso
we have also signed Goethe and Hadjar to our academy
and all but two (Ferri and Hadjar) are in a feeder series this year
I'm continuing to do the 2031 table for XDPU
mckinnon and virtanen as F2 teammates tho š„
rolling out some upgrades for this season before we fully transition to next seasons research
weāve renewed all our staff contracts to go into 2028, with yamato given a one year contract if we cannot deliver a strong car for the next season
our second driver will stay until the 2028 season, along with both our race engineers
i just noticed something
the loading splash for Australia has Ferrari as the first garage
F1 Manager predicts a Ferrari WCC?!?!?!?
Sainz now has Yuki's race engineer because his Ferrari engineer signed with Red Bull
Ocon
smooth operator sainz
and of course a factory fire
i wouldnāt be surprised if an ex mercedes employee did it
pain
we were expecting upgrades for jeddah, i guess itāll come for miami
i dont need to show the other 10 new liveries for 2025 here cuz they're just the irl 2025 liveries 
radio messages: stop in front of the garage
what they actually do:
how do they even rotate the car in the garage so it drives out forward
maybe thats why theres no cameras in the garages in F1M
black magic to rotate the car
or they literally strip it down so thereās barely enough clearance
once again FP1 the only time we'll ever get P1 (for now)
maybe thatās why it takes so long for my mechanics to fix the setup
i just accidentally filled out the brazil gp column with the Portugal results
for my 2031 table
i was like "alright brazil done, onto Portugal" swipe "whys it vegas" swipes back "wait whys this one Portugal"
idk why i find it funny
probably cuz portugal colonized brazil
the entire grid
š„
some of those look so weird
gasly at VCARB looks odd even though he was only in alphatauri 3 years ago
sargeant at haas, Magnussen at Mercedes, checo at aston, that fucking sauber lineup, and valtteri at alpine
Full XDPU 2031 Driverās Championship table Wikipedia style
theres a lot of gaps and theyre all sunburst's fault 
well thats surprising
44 laps
you guys wish you were on lewis' level so bad
its to the point your drivers lap counts emulate his driver number
Next race in XDPU 2033 is China.
Doobot
Sarbot
Virtanen is on pole, Vesti starts in P11.
Who wins the Chinese Grand Prix?
"Virtanen gets a good start, he'll lead the way into turn 1, but Sargeant's got a brilliant getaway! From 6th on the grid, he's up to 3rd! Ocon's up to 2nd, Verstappen and Piastri got a poor getaway, Stroll's up a couple, Hamilton and Tsunoda down a couple, now Sargeant's going for a move on Ocon! Logan Sargeant is up to 2nd! He has turned a leaf in his career since his difficult half season with Ferrari in 2029, he's come back to the prancing horse, and he's showing out here in Shanghai! Logan Sargeant is making brilliant gains in his Ferrari, from 6th on the grid, he now runs 2nd."
Vesti's down to P14.
Leglerg.
Ocon and Sainz both through to Q2
before the season started i looked at the performance chart
McLaren are slightly faster than Red Bull and they somehow lost Norris to Q1
Esteban goes P6 in Q2 and is through to Q3
Carlos will start P14
Ocon qualifies P7 in Australia!
all wet race
wow we gained one position
"This race has been a mixed bag for the Sunburst team, as Vesti qualified a difficult 11th place, had a poor pit stop and dropped to 20th, mixing with the Saubers, while Veikko Virtanen is exiting the final hairpin, for the final time, to exit the final corner, and off the back of his 4th pole position in Formula One, he converts for his 4th Grand Prix victory in Formula One! Veikko Virtanen wins the Chinese Grand Prix to uphold the Shanghai Circuit's status as a happy hunting ground for Sunburst!"
aston martin its literally the opening round
red flag on lap 38/58
Sargeant has crashed and blocked the track
"I'm such an idiot!" Sargeant says after spinning into the wall
VSC on Lap 45
Bottas has crashed
XDPU 2033 Constructor Standings after China
I feel like Vesti might be a little bit of a liability
pov sunburst every time a team gets close to them: its because of that damn teammate
P6 with the performance chart looking like this is impressive
Goatcon fr
wheres lurkcon when you need a goat reaction
ah
this sucks
our upgrades donāt work
but i swear i put all my ATR into this underfloor
thereās no way mclaren, mercedes, ferrari, redbull, and williams can use double my ATR
pain
literally the r&d chart has not moved
we made like a 0.21% decrease to the gap to redbull
while williams jumped up significantly by like 2%
hello
damnnn
satisfying number tho 62.62
Bonjour
So i've started putting our design projects on intense (i kinda forgot on some) in an attsmpt to boost our expertise and thus get bigger upgrades
I have 3 myteam saves in f1 24 on the go rn
Should I do Imola in XDPU, start S2 in the 10 race per season sim save, or continue the 16 race per season sim save?
I'm thinking the 16
Or XDPU
Not really feeling the 10
Too little movement in the driver market in that one
I say that yet im in the final season of the 16
tsunoda p1 in Melbourne
Sargeant P2, Pourchaire P3
and osc wins in Japan
they couldve won their respective home races but no
Oh well i'm already bored of this
im going back to xdpu
Next is Imola.
Yo, does anybody have a racing league for F1 22 that I can join?
your joking arent you š
we got a shitbox for this season and our season objective is about 50 points up the road
bro my board are from the 90s š
"In time"
very specific
i simulated barcelona and what i got to say is
LFG GGGG
but they are satisfied with barcelona
will courtenay.png right here
yes
my board wants us to get P2 this season
we have the slowest car on the grid by quite a bit
anyways before spielberb ive got a new rear wing with all the drag reduction you could ever ask for
spielberb 
Any predictions?
Spielbirb š¦
is that your prediction?
Out in Q1:
17.
Bearman
18.
Fittipaldi
19.
Zhou
20.
Gasly
21.
Ocon
22.
Martins
Yo, does anybody have a racing league for F1 22 that I can join?

Piastri

Iwasa
15.
Sargeant
16.
Hülkenberg
damn vesti
i've been trying 66% ai and no brake assist, compared to low. I don't know which one is giving me the most grief, but i do know i'm sticking to 60 on this save, starting the main race.
Verstappen 1:13.925
Russell +0.132
Tsunoda +0.174
Sainz- āļø Virtanen (+0.305 for reference)
Pourchaire
Stroll
Doohan
Hamilton
Maloney
still think 60 is a little too low since every race is either a 0.1 gap or a 10+ second gap
so i'll go 62 for the race

Focusing on Career Mode and My Team Career Mode
i need to get an extension cable for my g920 so i can use my vr with f1 25
my xbox one wont be able to play it
at least i wont be using my shitty tv thats like halfway across the room though
You already should have move to Xbox Series X or S for now
But Of course, If EA and Codemasters follows what Frontier Development made, It must be Huge One
I love that you've made it look like Wikipedia
Engine Supplier Changes for 2025:
Aston Martin move from Mercedes to Honda RBPT
Williams move from Mercedes to Honda RBPT
McLaren move from Mercedes to Renault
Sauber move from Ferrari to Renault
that was a pisstake of a race wtf
we're the only mercedes engine customer this season lmao
it started wet, drs enabled like lap 9, but the other leaders werent pitting so i couldnt otherwise i'd lose too much time
i forgot to set Max's number to 1 but he's using 1 this year
So i had to try and bring a car home that was burning its own tyres on wets because THESE GODDAMN AI WON'T PIT EVEN THOUGH THEYRE ON WETS AND THE TRACK IS NEAR BONE DRY
of course one of the only ones to actually pit in the changing conditions and lose time because of it was frederik vesti
confined to p18
which would be me if i had pitted with them
my rear right was like 64% wear by the end of the last lap
this is just funny
there are two other teams using RBPT engines
and my team is none of them 
XDPU 2033 Emilia Romagna Race Result
i know but a new console never seemed worth it
my xbox is purely for racing and i dont use it as much now
i find it funny how red bull sunwest are mercedes customers
Actually, It's definitely worth it since i have my PS5 in 2021 ago
i meant as in there was no real point for me to upgrade, sure it might look a bit better on the next gen but the graphics havent changed much since f1 2021
and i never much cared
Guess you'll Lose your License Level from F1 23 and F1 24 if your not playing F1 25 then
People lose their License Level when skipping F1 24 though
2021 is quaking in its boots
again that doesnt really matter, i'll be getting the game on pc and using vr probably
that depends if its actually good though
if its another f1 24 or f1 22 then ill just stay on 24
XDPU 2033 Driver Standings after Emilia Romagna
welcome back DP
50 points ahead
actually it'll come out on game pass in like february so i'll just wait for then
he had a lot of practice š¤·āāļø
yeah, a total of like 18 practice sessions
ok surprising that strikethroughs are allowed
they havent banned the markdown again have they
im pretty sure they fixed the bold/italic issue as seen here
was that a pun
maybe 
heated constructors fight brewing here š„
XDPU 2033 Constructor Standings after Emilia Romagna
rip ferrari and mercedes
they both only have one engine customer left (Haas and Sunwest respectively)
RBPT and Renault took over 
i would say im surprised sunburst are still p1 but then again virtanen accounts for literally 87.4% of those points
tbh if vesti doesnt up his game i might swap him out for a higher driver like maybe oscar or lando again
mclaren: idk about you but i feel like this sunburst team are targeting our drivers
i was checking your WDC and i was like "but lando's not there?"
omg what if i get a myteam icon like schumi 
that would be hilarious 
I COULD GET MARK WEBBER
I'VE HAD OSCAR
GO THE STEP HIGHER 
though webber's rating is 85 vs oscar's 88 in my market sooo
"multi 21 veikko, multi 21"
Birdhunter The Ultimate Game Experience! Join us on discord.gg/pu6AWmVDjG for the latest updates.
This is a F1 game ive been working on
Its pretty fun, I think its PC only
dp was the one doing the multi 21-ing when he was in 
doohan/bottas in alpine is actually perfect cuz they have the mumbers 7 and 77
jenson button won a title in only one year with a new team, maybe try him? 
"See if you can do it in half!"
jenson button just coming out of retirement 16/17 years later (16 from last race, 17 from last full time seat) to do half a season and dip again 
AND MAX AND RICCIARDO BEING 3/33
next race is canada
but honestly idk if i wanna do it tonight
i kinda feel like setting up a new career mode so i can go to it as a fallback as soon as s10 of xdpu finishes
but i really dont know what to do for it
lewis is probably on this list in that save 
oldest drivers to score points
imola takes place on what, 16th of may ingame date in f1 24?
i think
oh wait
his last points were bahrain
thats like end of feb/start of march in game
the list is all drivers from the 50s and then just for some reason lewis hamilton in 2033
2033 is 9 years from now and lewis is 40 rn so he'd be 49 in 2033
oh
i was thinking 2024 because its f1 24 

assuming 1st march 2033 is the bahrain ingame date, hes 48y 1m 22d
so like 48 years 50ish days
its all drivers from the 50s and then randomly lewis hamilton in 2033 

should i do this?
if you want to then sure
i have 2 sim saves on the go, which one should i delete to give space?
Iām back here
yo we beat Ferrari 
Itās been ages
hello reddawn
ferrari should be embarrassed
they got beaten by the slowest car on the grid in australia
Hello
?
no or wılliams 2019
which one is the most unused one
i mean the wılliams 2019 one is only at the end of s1 and it was 10 race seasons so
So i guess that one would have less to lose
i guess yeah
entry point?
well what kinda save is this gonnab e
well its gonna be the successor in lore to the xdpu, the next driven lore save after that one finishes
start in the middle
midfield challenger
yes
should s1 be a season of 24 or 16 (im not even considering 10)
go the full 24
alr
my position on assists rn is im generally comfortable with no brake assist except a few blips (i have flashbacks on to correct those mistakes), and traction control I'm not really in a position to disable yet
Neither for the manual gearbox/ERS/DRS/pit sequences
Difficulty i'll hold at 63 (george russell ik)
russell ai
now idk what to do for weekend structure
xdpu was just basically always full quali and short sessions
do you want to try mediums
honestly might as well
check your MFD for a new strategy
i can always knock it back down to short if i'm struggling with it
should i have department events on in this save?
sure why not
it could add to the lore
last i remember it was asking a driver specially made to backmark for a sim save if it wanted to rival Verstappen or Perez
lmaoo
Should I enable my team icons or should I leave them off for now
I don't tend to use them in other saves
they tend to sit in the market
whats the list of myteam icons
you could have some lore where your team manages to get some recently retired drivers out of retirement
or maybe even some of the more recent icons that never got a proper shot at F1 glory
maybe i could do a bit of lore where an esports driver like opmeer or tonizza decides to jump ship to irl f1
so then lets have the icons on
ok now the next bit
ja
how to decide the driver and team stuff
veikko virtanen is the man behind the team
veikko can be principal
so what if the in game thing tries to set it up as "owner/driver"? nuh uh.
Charles LeTrois in a different universeš„ š„
charles the three go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Charles LeQuatre 
Charles TheThree moment
Charles LeUn
Charles Le Deux
Charles LeCinq
nah the ultimate name: Charles LeCentQuatreVingtQuinze
that translates to Charles The 195 
or maybe i could magpie one of my 2031 f2 lore drivers from xdpu, shift their age a bit and have them be the driver?
the 2 i immediately look to are dirksen or coolen
Charles LeTrois but his name changes based on his championship points typpa name
magpie?
I mean bro had the most successful Yamaha season ever (and second most successful in MotoGP history) so iād say he got close
charles letrois when he gets 453 points:
Charles LeQuatreCentCinquanteTrois
He got 406 last season
Charles LeaddedbullshitTrois moment
so that would make him Charles LeQuatreCentSix
Love how Charlesā meme is just his name
basically what i mean is just take a driver from here and transpose the age a bit to make it suitable to insert in 2024
and for that i think cosmo dirksen or ladislas coolen
i think coolen would be cool
genuinely or are you saying that to make a pun out of coolen
having an f1 driver called cosmo would be pretty awesome ngl
pellegrini: his influence, twingos and ditches
cambleforth: his attitude
letrois: his name
both actually
its the question of who would virtanen be most likely to choose
/ allow the team to accept
probably cosmo
i mean cosmo was his f2 teammate in xdpu 2031
so i guess it would make more sense for him to choose his teammate over rival
but
why are we making this make sense in a link to xdpu
virtanen, coolen and Dirksen probably never fucking met at this point
also for TP virtanen, we'd probably have to make a THIRD ageshift
Lmao yeah
so i think i'll choose cosmo dirksen
driver number??
OMG
50
bc theres 50 states in the us
why not
We can sort the colour related stuff afterwards
For now, what should we call the team
Funny enough i have VIR Grand Prix written in rn
HELL YES
stylized as V² Racing
one thing i consider when im making team names is how it would sound in commentary
which is partly why i selected Sunwest because it makes sense as a short form in the commentary
there are two cars
so are the cars (V²)²? 
DuoTone (25pts, 4.8m)
PSD (6th or better WCC, 4.7m)
Xenon
(5x points finish, 4.5m)
Monnaie Paris (8th or better WCC, 4.4m)
Adon (15pts, 4.2m)
Kompass (2x points finish, 4.1m)
Pacifico (10th or better WCC, 4m)
RGB (5pts, 3.9m)
Atlantic (complete the season, 3.7m)
those are the options
considering the team is a midfielder
I think we could do the duotone goal, but maybe in points terms adon is safer?
25 points is equal to a win
24 races for 25 points with 2 cars
shouldnt be too hard considering im driving one of them
famous last words 
the numbers are the signing bonus
i like how atlantic is like "we dont care what you do as long as you just finish the season ok"
it gives you 1.83m as a goal bonus but it gives like 300k weekly income for some reason
they really pay you almost 2 million just to finish the season
i think DuoTone is a good deal here
you'll be in the mix so you'll be able to score good points
alright
like even just two P5s and a P7 would be enough
wrong vowel oops
i scrolled up to see it and still messed it up 
so slight issue
the character cap cuts off the ng
i think its safe to remove the sponsor name or even shorten it to DT
DT V-Squared Racing
like my saves have been BA Sunwest Racing and RB Sunwest Racing
why is renault more reliable then ferrari?!?!?
idk 
Ferrari has best performance but overall Merc is best package but 400k more expensive
Now then. Who to sign alongside Dirksen?
wait so who did you pick 
merc
who are good options
not including the icons, the highest rated is vesti (69)
technically Virtanen's hatred for vesti was based on driving rivalry
if Virtanen never drove against Vesti
he would never hate him
true
alternate universe virtanen 
should he actually sign vesti tho? 
yeah maybe he sees vesti as a promisimg talent in this world
go for a green/blue
green and blue was kinda sunburst's thing beyond s8 ish
So how's this for the VV-01
hm nice
ooh the purple looks nice with this
pov what prime xenon were going for in their purple era 
lol
i remember when i did f1 23 myteam
The existing sponsor placements didnt look good with the Sunwest red/white
so my alternative was make Sauber
V-Squared enter in 7th on R&D
only thing is that the first drivers surname starts with a D
Dirksen
but yeah
interesting correspondence
the owner, virtanen, and a driver, vesti
bro shouldve made a driver whos name also starts with V 
If there was another D you could've been DVD Racing 
š
DVD Racing? Those FIA allowed that Name?
Max Verstappen gets flown into the Air after making Contact with a Ferrari in Melbourne
thats why they call him the flying dutchman

how on gods green earth did you manage to get a car thats in anyway slower than the two mobility scooters
Why 15 GB this is only the beta
how many beta's did they send out to you LOL
wait if you sign up for the beta and all that do you get the final game for free or still have to pay
if so i might sign up for the beta next game
Still have to buy it
damn
Signing up for the beta only gives you the beta version of the game which is time restricted.
Well, because it still has cars, tracks, AI, handling model, car physics etc.
Hello
I think I get why F1 22ās physics model is so hated now. Itās the no-assists handling?
Like, I have always used assists
Cuz I have a skill issue XD
So I never found F1 22 and F1 24 janky (except the Monaco hairpin on F1 24)
I'm making another f1m save, i've set a randomised calendar:
Monaco (sprint)
Japan
Miami
Spain
Abu Dhabi (sprint)
Silverstone (sprint)
Brazil
Hungary
Mexico
Australia
Bahrain
China (sprint)
Canada
Qatar
Monza
COTA (sprint)
Spa
Austria (sprint)
Jeddah
Baku
Vegas
Singapore
Imola
Zandvoort
And i've just removed everyone from their teams so let's see what happens
I'll drop the fastest lap bonus point this season as if it were 2025
OKAY WHAT IS THIS GRID
Hamilton/Piastri
Verstappen/Ocon
Hirakawa/Gasly
Sainz/Vesti
Hülkenberg/Norris
Alonso/Ricciardo
Russell/Iwasa
Tsunoda/Magnussen
Stroll/Zhou
PƩrez/Bottas
What is this grid ššš
i just removed everyone from their teams and let the game make the changes
lap 9 of 30 in the sprint in monaco, VSC called for Tsunoda who is out.
A crash into Sainte Devote
Verstappen in the Ferrari leads Hamilton in the Red Bull then Ocon in the other Ferrari.
"No HeRoIcS iNtO sAiNtE DeVoTe PlEaSe"
Ocon at Ferrari šš
Lf1 f1 24 13-16 (im 15) co-op career. 80-100 ai difficulty. Dm me eu preferably
mate's done it all, (minardi was it?), renault, McLaren, Ferrari, Alpine, Aston, now Williams??
š
Verstappen wins in red, he wins the sprint in Monaco.
other 2 are dpmocon38 aka the backmarker
Norris gets a puncture on lap 66/78.
From running 6th, he is now 13th.
Onto lap 77, Ocon gets by Hamilton to make it a Ferrari 1-2.
Verstappen leads by 40 seconds.
@fallow breach is f1 manager good?
"He won the Sprint from pole on Saturday, and he completes the double on the Sunday! A flourish in Ferrari colours, as Max Verstappen wins the season opener in Monaco!"
I'm not particularly the best one to ask about f1m, but from what i've played of it, yes.
the fastest 25 years old on 4 wheels
Ye. Im just a bit hesitant on downloading. Im not the biggest fan of f1 games i dont have the patience with them to be honest. I am having a big phase of playing atm tho. On f1 24 i think i have racked up sommet stupid like 120 hours in the past 10 days or so šš
im excited for the deep dive tomorrow
which one did y'all chose on this?
Q1 cut in Japan:
17. Tsunoda
18. Magnussen
19. Bottas
20. Vesti
My plan is to do Japan, then go on F1 24 and either continue XDPU (my main save) or start VVRU (my other save i set up last night) (idk yet)
VSC on lap 36/53
Hirakawa is out
-70. Brutal. I got the total overhaul one my first season. Like -50% to everything
Lewis Hamilton wins the Japanese Grand Prix for Red Bull, and Piastri makes it a Red Bull 1-2!
I'm on F1 24.
I'll do the first round of the VVRU save
but first a bit of background
the 'announcements' return
lore source rundown:
ATMOSport 
PMSN (Pellegrini Motor Sport Network) 
Rumours from the Paddock 
ATMOSport, 18/10/2023: V-Squared Racing announced as 11th team to join from 2024
Virtanen controls all the admin work bc yes
Drivers and engineers:
D1. šŗšø Cosmo Dirksen
E1. šøš® Herman Kƶnig
D2. š©š° Frederik Vesti
E2. šŗšø Reuben Delgado
Using difficulty 70 for Bahrain quali
I set car performance to 1 dot when creating the save
Out in Q1:
17.
Zhou
18.
PƩrez
19. V² Vesti
20.
Sargeant
21.
Tsunoda
22.
Russell
Ah
and i went to some lengths to hide the name in every screenshot i sent here
fair enough
I remember also I was out of town when it came out, so I had to play it on Whisky on my macbook
It ran fine honestly, and it was only for 2 days so
its a shame we might not get an f1m25
but at least we have the 2025 dlc
or the mod anyway
Lf1 f1 24 13-16 (im 15) co-op career. 80-100 ai difficulty. Dm me eu preferably
lol
It always used to happen where I leave the drivers on push fuel by accident
Then they run out
in silverstone one time i think it was my second save on season 3 or something, i started with minimum fuel and then set them to save too late
russell ran out of fuel at like stowe or something on the last lap and i cant remember who my other driver was
minimum fuel is a solid strategy but i dont bother anymore
Yeah
its like using that setup website or whatever
It usually doesnāt do too much besides a good start
it sort of takes the fun out of it
Yeah
i always underfuel by a few laps depending on how dire our situation is
I used the setup website once or twice
like if one had a bad quali, i underfuel by maybe 5 laps
oh back in f1m22 i used it every race
Lol
but i was properly addicted though
I started with f1m23
I grinded that shit so much
I think I started on 23 like a month before 24
we were renovating our kitchen and bathroom so we stayed at my nans house but my computer stayed at my house
Ah
so i only ever got to play every other weekend or so
I was visiting family across the country so my desktop was at home, I just had my macbook
This was like June-july of last year
yeah i only brought my xbox and steering wheel then
so it was f1 22 for the week and then f1m22 on weekends
On my MacBook though I was able to run whisky on it
And f1m23 (with xbox cloud gaming) and 24 on whisky
I was gone for like a month and a half
why can i actually remember the day f1m24 released like it was yesterday
Same
i preordered it but then i couldnt download it until it released
Yeah I also did
in this save, Q2:
Dirksen was 12th in Q1, but he's produced an absolute flyer of a lap when it mattered most in Q2, to launch him to the top of the pile. Pole isn't a done deal yet, and it would be a long way above where the team were projected to be in testing, with Vesti in 20th, and everyone else pushing hard in Q3, it could highly likely be 10th for Dirksen in Q3.
Regardless, out in Q2:
11.
Gasly
12.
Hülkenberg
13.
Ricciardo
14.
Magnussen
15.
Bottas
16.
Ocon
seriously though ea better not of ruined f1 25
I feel like the new myteam might be a knockoff f1m
i can't get it anyway yet bc i dont have a ps5
im gonna have to buy an extension cord for my g920 so i dont have to move it
Yeah
yeah my xbox one wont cut it anymore unfortunately
I have the PS4 i've used for the last 7 years
I will probably just get it on my pc
oh ive had my xbox for like 9 years
though its gonna ruin my streak, ive played every game from f1 2021 to f1 24 on the same account
I still have a ps3 that we have had for like 13 years (we donāt use anymore, we have a ps5)
and for whatever reason i cant actually log into the same account for my pc
yeah i still have an xbox 360 that my dad had before i was born i think
i always remember it being there
it hasnt moved in about 11 years
collecting dust under the living room tv
Damn
Yo, anyone with a f1 22 racing league I can join?
actually thats a lie, i nicked the batteries from the controllers for something else a few weeks ago
And Dirksen lands P7.
5 safety cars and 1 red flag
F1 24?
I have but i didnt have The PS plus
a ok
bad drivers and drivers wrecking their cars on the kerbs
Ah
First 1-2 in qualy for my team!!
i've also decided to set up another f1 23 sim save, but the team is actually a genuine contender because why not
i made it renault and made driver 1 jolyon palmer
signed Pourchaire for 2nd seat bc why not
oh my god im crazy
i just spent the past hour in time trial trying to beat my friendās spa time on f1 24 who beat me by a whole second
bearing in mind that i havent played f1 24 for a month or so
i think i did pretty well to catch up 2 seconds in an hour
cause i was a second off of my record
came out of retirement for this and now pulling a nico rosberg
Bahrain:
Verstappen
Leclerc
Perez
..
Palmer
Pourchaire
-
Verstappen -
Perez -
Leclerc -
Palmer -
Pourchaire
^Jeddah
Palmer P9, Pourchaire P10 in Australia
damn that reminds me, i need to check if vr works alright with the f1 games on my computer
bro i can't get them to work š
explain this. i go onto f1 24, it loads up fine. none of the controls work.
ive tried it twice before but i didnt get good result
hm, that's weird.
i click onto the right tab.
surely that's it.
it doesn't work.
let me go onto oculus virtual desktop and check.
i click the button. it works
are you trying to use vr controllers?
oh
if i click a button on my wheel in the virtual desktop, it works.
if i go onto actual vr, it doesn't.
how tf does that work
wait if you use virtual desktop, are you connecting to a real computer?
i don't know
i use rift s
it just displays my computer's monitor
but it works
yep
i might get a vr
no idea then
dont get one purely for racing games i'd say
look at what i'm typing, and don't
racing games are either laggy, jittery or just dont fucking work
assetto corsa is the only one that works well with good quality
maybe i might idk
yeah
