![]() One of the ways to tweak your cars has disappeared: you can no longer adjust the ballast of the car.Īs a driver, that means you'll need all your time in free practices to find the right balance in your car. For those who have played earlier instalments of the F1 games, you'll be accustomed to downloading or creating your own set-up for a car on a certain track, going out on track and tweaking it after feeling too much oversteer or understeer. Speaking of set-up - once you get to the Formula 1, you'll be facing a big challenge. It's a really fun addition to the game, particularly if you enjoy banging wheels with equal cars! Note: set-up in F2 cars is much more limited than in F1. You can either do a full or a shortened season. The 2019 F2 grid will be added later as free DLC. You can do a full F2 season if you want (or go straight to F1 without your rival), but you will have to do it as a 2018 team. Usually, this happens at the end of the season, but knowing the short fuse of the people at Red Bull Racing. For example, say Valtteri Bottas chucks his W10 in the wall every race and Lance Stroll is constantly in the points, the young Canadian could make the step up and replace the Finn. Odd choice, but we digress.Īnother interesting new feature in career mode is how drivers will actually swap seats based on performance. Interesting detail: we chose Racing Point and took Lance Stroll's place, while our rival went to Haas to take Kevin Magnussen's seat. No matter which team you choose, Codemasters always makes sure your rival gets put in a similar team in terms of performance. A series of events on several tracks take you through the season rather than actually racing the full season, before you make the step up to F1, as does your rival. If you're expecting to race for a full F2 season in career mode, you'll get short-changed. The idea is really fun, but the execution leaves something to be desired. Yourself and another upcoming driver don't get along, which results in battling each other on track regularly. In F1 2018, rivalries already played a part in your progress as a driver, but in the new game, there is a real focus on it. The new feature is part of the heavier focus on rivalries in this year's game.
