Dude this video is amazing! You are the first guy I saw that actually explains why something matters in the game rather than just do this or just do that.
You’re a legend for doing this! The lords work!! Thanks again!! I’ve been jumping through streamers like Jarno (also a legend) to find what to do after wasting multiple seasons peaking P15
@@MBSwingworks Absolutely! It’s hidden and not well explained knowledge! I wanted to make this for everyone in a more deep technical dive so we can all be on the same page, understand, and succeed together!
Amazing video, really helped me. I do have 3 questions that others also might have: 1)What's your take on switching from design to research? When, how much, etc 2)Do you normally develop multiple iterations of all parts or just focus on a few? 3)When you design and research, do you do 1 part at a time and dump all your wind tunnel hours into that, or you split it over multiple? Essentially does it make sense to develop anything with low to no wind tunnel testing? Not sure if you read these, but I'll give it a go. :)
Hey thanks! 1) So it depends on the situation, if I’m a back marker I drop all current development as soon as research opens and go all in on research, if you’re leading, I split half half, but always use 75-85% of your CFD/WT Time on research, it’s way more effective overall. 2) I do multiple iterations, because if I use a ton of WT time on a part, that knowledge increases for the next part, so the 1st new version will be solid, the 2nd part after that is super good! 3) I like splitting it usually, I account for how many parts I could make within the allocation time (usually 4-5) and split it evenly, unless it’s something important I need to change, I usually go completely even! Even a little wind tunnel time still adds more days onto the overall understanding, which adds up on the next designs!
great vid, wished i wathced this before starting my first own team -career... :) well i figured some out already but this just gives me wild ideas to further develop and see how to generate a monster car :)
i literally just waited a bit until a big season reset was coming and just researched constantly for the entire season, i was the 1s faster in quali almost every time XD
This was great thanks! Had to restart my season cause I was losing so much money and just realized I need to play so much slower. If you can make one for Facilities staff and such that would be great. Especially with how to start a my team on low everything!
First of all thanks for this amazing video! My only issue is that I feel you wrapped up the research par a bit too quickly. Like I have so many question: is it worth putting just one engineer in the research project like for the design ? Should you focus on one particular part and do multiple projects on it ? Or better to research every part affected at least once ? Also is it worth it to do research on parts that are NOT affected by the regulation changes ? I feel it would have been worth to explore the research part a little more. As for the rest, really good job ^^
Hey I know it’s been a while since this video but I just wanted to say that this guide really helped me a ton as a first time player to this f1 manager game. As I was able to go from p9 in the constructors to p5 in season 2! But as the 2026 season regulations completely change, I see a potential to challenge as a frontrunner with big developments prior to that season. So the one big question I have is that do you still research the same aspects for each part with the sliders just as if you’re designing a new part? Or do you focus on other aspects of each part different to when designing new parts? Thanks a lot for the guide and I would really love more tips and tricks from you 👍
I appreciate you and I’m so glad it’s helped this much! I focus on mine a little differently with research, when researching you don’t lose any knowledge of the part unless you simply don’t do any research projects. I normally put emphasis on the parts effected first, then as a secondary put a ton of emphasis on the important metrics of that part. For example, if the changes are an aero balance change for the side pods, even though I only upgrade cooling 95% of the time normally, in this instance I’d max out aero research and then put casual research or maybe put 30-60% on the slider for cooling research! Stuff like that basically!
@@chxviilsx it’s insane they released the game with that and the contract flaw….i mean any one who did even a couple hours of testing would of seen the problems
I just brought this game, however won't be able to play for a few days, question about the lifespan as I domt get it, what happens after the lifespan is over, do I have to design a new part or simply I just have to manufacture more of that part and cycle them after the parts lifespan is reached ?
The part will break and you have to fit a new one! After every race it will tell you the risk (which guesses how many more races until it breaks) Low- You’re solid, Medium- Maybe 1-3 races, High- Be ready with a new part to fit! So after that, have a new part of any type ready to replace it!
Good video！Before unlock of research maybe there are only two or three ATR to design new part. What are the best parts to use all cfd and windtunnel time？And what about detail of reseach？Should I focus on one single part？ Which part？
@@无穷仙人 Great question! I recommend using the car analysis tool, see where your car is the weakest against your competitors, do the same for Research except prioritize the area where regs are impacting your part! If you are using my team and the car sucks all together, shove a lot into Side-pods and Suspension to bump your engine and brake cooling (tyre pres) then either chassis or underfloor and max Aero cornering out to improve competitive speed through corners!
@@chxviilsx Well I used to try designing a super straight line speed car so I tried anything to improve top speed and acceleration but I found DRS is so powerful that everyone can catch up (I want SF90 LOL). And before I watch this video I only choose balanced separate cfd and windtunnel time on each parts and it actually playable. But your video give me a brand new idea! One more question. should I totally give up dirty air tolerance and focus on the rest improvement?
Nice video, thanks. Always wondered, as a back marker team, is it worth doing upgrades throughout the season or just hammer the research? And can you upgrade a part after you've researched it or will this counter each other?
Regarding the sliders during development, do you have any idea how different performance is when you customise the sliders for each part compared with leaving them all at the default?
Depends on your situation, if you’re a back market struggling, do nothing but research. You should focus on the parts that have been affected by the regulation changes. But also do a few research projects on non affected parts just to create a ton of knowledge to run with for the next season. I split my CFD / WT time, some parts take longer, I normally divide it by 4/6 and then anticipate doing that many projects during the time frame.
When and how can you make the powertrain change? Is it only at the start at the season or the end? Did it change in 24 and if yes how? (Without myTeam Mode)
Hey! So if you are taking over one of the official teams, at the end of the season after the recap, payouts based on standings and such, it will allow you to see all the powertrains available to switch to! (Sometimes their stats will change each season, so be on the lookout!) It is essentially the same as the previous two games!
After you researched the first iterations of your parts on intense is it worth manufacturing that version straight away or is it worth designing it again for those second iteration gains then manufacturing them? great video by the way, keep it up.
@@Kuziph I appreciate you! I do manufacture the first iterations with maybe 2-4 parts just to be used in the meantime and have a spare or two. It’s a small gain but enough to maybe make a small impact in performance overall. By the time the 2nd and 3rd design are done, that’s when research opens and you should have a solid model to last you for the season. (Unless you’re in a tight title fight ofc)
Is it worth to research multiple times an one part of the car? For example, you covered regulation reduction and keep research the same part of the car.
Yes absolutely, usually you can fit 2-4 normal upgrades on a part before regs open. Once research opens I highly recommend repeating parts. The more research you do, and higher understanding you build through that will transfer to your base part and base knowledge for the next season 👍🏻
Typically your Engine will be key for that, Speed and Acceleration are 95% impacted by Engine and the different providers. However some parts that impact drag / top speed can increase acceleration if you tune it that way
@@JParuscio not usually, the reason I made this video is because it’s hidden knowledge. The game doesn’t explain how some cars are better at one spec than another, it’s found by testing for yourself. CFD and WT units, I never understood until I dug in on them. I just made this video to inform new and returning people what each things does to help everyone!
@@Bully-s2b So that should be for reg changes, so you’ll lose 50% of your knowledge about that item, stat or whatever it is for the beginning of next season! Make sure to do plenty of research projects studying that to counter it and not lose understanding for next year
I’m in my second season & been fired like 4 times now and i think i have to restart :/, the Board expects a 6th place finish & I can’t seem to get enough upgrades to fight for points till the end of the season lol, my factory can only manufacture 2 parts at a time so I think I messed up and need to upgrade the factory. But even with upgrades it’s still tough to keep up the pace with 2 78 ovr drivers they can’t keep up with the top 10 my upgrade ls r trash too
@@nightjokerrz upgrades are super important, and especially good facilities can speed your progress a ton. Everything’s a learning experience, just apply what you can to your fresh start and I have no doubt you’ll have the hang of it! 👍🏻
