I got a very decent 8th at Bahrain - but struggled like i always do at Catalunya,race started wet but gradually dried until everyone went on Primes - i was up to 10th in the first stint,with TM Maldonado in 9th,but we both had slow pace compared to the Saubers & Force Indias,and i finished 15th in the end - after some slow pit stops (everyone did 4!).
It doesnt improve Clart.
I find the AI's degredation is miles better than mine and I nearly always have to stop early or make extra stops. Some tracks are really bad for it (Malaysia and Hungary). Using some of the setups on the forum mentioned on page 5 seem to help tyre wear.

There are a few tracks which are utter s**t in tyre wear and the AI just does not seem to replicate the players tyres.
I've just finished my first Season, I chose Kimi as my Rival as he was down in 9th and I was 10th with Force Indiia. I ended up beating him in the standings (I was 9th he was 10th) and in the majority of races, so I turned down offers from Williams and Sauber for Lotus, onlyI never got the offer! FFS.

I've been rinsing this lately, I'd say its the best F1 game i've played, even with the silly tyre wear on a couple of track. Just finished my first season, started with Torro Rosso, half way through the season i get offered the sauber drive as number 2. I whup hulkenbergs ass and finish 9th in the championship after a second place at interlagos (love that track). Lotus have now offered me a seat as their number 1 driver w00t!
Glad you're enjoying it.
The tyre wear issue mainly down to the strategy not being able to take in to account wear from previous sessions, so your strategy is based on new rubber, and the AI being a little more gentle than the player.
The Lotus is a nice car to drive. I used the Lotus a lot during dev, so it's set-up to my tastes!

I've been doing the short weekend, so just 15 mins of qualifying, i tend to go out on new tyres set a couple of ok laps, then come in when the fuel runs out. Change for a new set of options and go out and put the hammer down for the last 5 mins.
Do you start the race on the tyres you finished quali on?
Yep, I just punture a tyre on my in lap, so I start with fresh tyres, also gives you the chance to swap to primes for the start.
Ever play online?
Have you played the previous games? What difficulty level and are you using any aids? Also wheel or pad?
Urm any news on the 2014 versions for next gen, expected this year?I am really looking forward to this on PS4
Jean Eric Vergne tweeted earlier that he's been with codemasters doing facial recognition, so hopefully the next game will have some good features and top graphics.
I think the difficulty settings have been way off since 2011 which was bang on.
Not played in a while but pro I was 4/5 seconds off the pace of last but on inter I was 4/5 quicker than second place.
That cant be right.

Never played any of the others, I have it on the beginner settings with all aids on except the brake assist! Oh and I use the Xbox pad.
It will take a while to get used to it then. Just keep going and you'll be on the pace before you know it.

Back on this now after a couple of months on GT6 - what a place to start - Monaco in the wet! This makes GT6 feels sedate lol - safe to say i really struggled,Q20th and finished that in the race aswell,after being lapped numorous times.
Hamilton & Rosberg didnt even do a lap of Qualifying,so they started at the back! But Rosberg managed to finish with a point in 10th!
Canada next,one of my favourite tracks - so looking for a better result hehe.

Well once again at Hungary,the tyre wear is ridiciulous - had to make an extra 4th stop,so it cost me a top 10 place as i was around 8th. Really finding Expert a challenge,average finish is 16th. But ive just had a contract offer from Sauber half way through the season so took it straight away! Was going to choose Guttierrez as my rival to try and get a seat there for season 3,so thats a result! Really wasnt going anyway with the Williams.
My new TM Hulkenberg is doing ok,in 9th with 36 pts.

I've just started playing this again this week - I'm surprised at how good the graphics are compared to XBONE games.
Thought it would look crap but it just doesn't!

Finished my first season with Williams in P6. Got a Ferrari contract offer, and gladly accepted.
Lovely stuff.

Just got a great battling 8th at Spa - i was under intense pressure from Rosberg for most of the race,but held him off....my TM Hulkenberg spun out early on but came back well,nearly got a point but finished in 11th. Its much better in a team with a fast Teammate.
My first points since my 8th at Bahrain..

Yeah he is - wouldnt surprise me if he got a podium soon. I had the 3 germans of Rosberg,Vetell & Hulkenberg hounding me on the back straight of Spa every lap hehe - great seeing the AI defending their line like me aswell. I cant really pick fault with this game,apart from the excessive tyre wear on some tracks.

Thats what i thought about Canada - but i really struggled there on Expert in the Williams,came 15th...normally finish in the points around there!
