PC patches are a little farther ahead too, except that has crashing to desktop most of the time so console versions are still better at the moment even without the patch (they may even have it, but Ben just doesn't have it yet).
I watch all of your videos Ben, but the amount of corner cutting in this race was just worthy of a few penalties. And with the collison with Button, you've run wide, you've cut the corner to stay ahead of him. Okay he's stuck his nose in there but you can't just cut the corner like that, if you actually put at least one wheel on the road when taking that corner instead of all wheels completely off the track you would be side by side with button. And you go to cut the next corner and run into button there. Bad race. Corner cut central
One hint: If you don't select Inters as next tyre, your engineer will not make a fool out of you :D Same happened to me. I don't know why that bug exists but I think after you select the next tyre the game will always try to use the tyre you want for the next strategy change. And if they want to pit you for any reason whatsoever you will get the tyres you selected or something like that. Anyways, don't select inters before you are certain that you can pit. Otherwise Jeff will give you the wrong strategy. And also don't fiddle with the strategy too much. I once started with medium tyres, switched to softs, thought I had another set of med so I selected med tyres and they gave me the meds from the first stint with 70% wear. Hope that helps
I think the game gets confused when you change your tyre strategy yourself in the MFD, so when the engineer comes on the radio to suggest a new pit strategy, he tells you to go onto the inters (in this case). The opposite happened to me in Shanghai going from wet to dry conditions and it really ruined my race. I think it's a bug/glitch in the game.
Great video once again. I don't think you've got the patch yet because the patch adds a fuel indicator next to the engine mix option in the OSD which wasn't visible. And I think you've made an error with your strategy. Knowing that rain was going to come late in the race, I would've picked the mediums as the second tyre, a bit more conservative but since the reason for your early Inter pit stop seemed to be tyre wear, you could've given yourself a little wiggle room with the mediums.
I wish that f1 career mode has more scenes like those in the NBA 2k,in which you really immerse yourself into the environment like arguing with your engineer,physical fights etc
trying to get the undercut and making the pit stop just a lap or 2 early resulted in a huge difference in result...was expecting a win once you got to 1st position before your 1st pits.....Hope u can bounce back....
He did cut the corner (which I hadn't noticed before), but he had the inside line and was ahead going into the corner. Button's AI should've yielded and try for an overtake at the next corner.
I've played legit to so far but currently in Canada I keep starting great and be near the front and crash at the end of the race. I refuse to give myself a dnf each eating I know but anyone, love this video
The spin with jenson was your own fault. He was already on your outside and you moved to the inside of the next corner effectively cutting into him like he wasn't even there, spinning yourself out
You dont have the new patch... The patch also includes some HUD changes... You can for example select if you want a front wing change or not and you can see how much fuel you have on page one of the MFD*. I dont see those so i dont think u have it yet ;)
The conservative 1 stop strategy is SO OP for the AI. I had Vettel winning from 21st on that strategy, and so many backmarkers somehow making up so many positions. I guess it's because the AI needs to be more racey rather than just settling behind other AI.
Looking at the weather forecast in the start of the race I thought it was pretty obvious to opt for the 3 stop strategy. I mean, you would have had that last stop right when the rain was going to start rather than a few laps before it.
The engineer strategy recommendation is fucked when you set tyres to inters before the crossover period. If you keep dry tyres as next tyres, the recommendations made by jeff are good
i dont think youve got the patch yet as you dont have the option to change front wing and the fuel level isnt show next to the mix selection in the mfd, unless thats a pc thing
15:40 yup. this is Ben. you may remember him from the top 3 on lap 5. then he threw his life away and started taking cannibas. don't do drugs kids, or you may end up like ben
Two things I really wish Codemasters would sort out is engineer instructions and being held up in the pits. The same problems have been in every F1 game since 2010. IRL drivers don't get held up in the pits 60+% of the time. Easily sorted by letting you out with a smaller window - there was space for you to leave the pits in this case (as in most cases I've had). I agree with others here that DRS disabled is time for inters and your engineer said not time yet but I really wish you got clear and solid instructions from them for this ("come in this lap for inters" would work just fine). Again, IRL this is how it's done. I really wish they had a more robust system of suggesting strategy changes during the race, ie, not just saying "we have a viable strategy change and then just showing what tyre it is and how many stops - show us how it will pan out for the rest of the race/how it will affect total race time. Otherwise, awesome game! And awesome series here! :)
Unlucky Ben, your engineer must come from the same university as mine, effing useless for strategy changes. He has cost me points in 2 races already. Great videos, always enjoyable.
it's a glitch you chose intermediates before the enginner asked to chance strategy I had the same thing I chose intermediates as I knew there was going to be rain, Jeff asked about strategy change.After that race I then did a quick race 50% around Monza(dry conditions) and chose Wet tyres. Jeff asked about a strategy change and wanted to put me onot Full Wets, so maybe you should tell Codies about this glitch so they can fix it
I like that the patch came out with "sc" and so... great Video. i have a question for you ben why aarav is not playing youtuber championship with you all? (sorry for my bad english but i come from Austria and we speak german there ;D)
He's going back to Uni, so he doesn't have a great deal of time. He does aerodynamics course which is quite a full on. Also, Aarav and Ben have a Co-op series, so only 2 people need to agree a time to record, while YT Championship needs 4/5 people to be available at the same time, thus being much harder.
I just got a Logitech G29 for the ps4 for my 11th b-day, and I've looked at a Thrustmaster steeringwheel but i have a question: Which wheel is better. Logitech or Thrustmaster?
hi how can i get a better time in this Grand prix ? I just get 1:20 with the Mercedes in time trial , l use automatic ...some adivice to get a faster lap ?
Wow. You were doing pretty good, but then the rain came and it all went in the toilet. The early call to inters, then the spin and then the crash. And to make matters worse, the banana car finished 4th.
Ben or anybody else, are you having problems with the game since the update/patch? My game has crashed a couple times since its been updated on my ps4. Just curious if anyone else is also having problems.
The AI just pushed me off the track on the start finish straight in Hungary out of nowhere and for no reason!! the race was over for me... sometimes they are really overaggressive!
Found ur channel just now and watched the career but i want next season to start so the car getting even better. Will be lot of podiums for u next season...hurry up! lol.
yes Ben ,that is the new update. I had the same incident in Spa in the rain, Kvyat was being aggressive n knocked both of us out of the race.. I thought 'jeeze,aint that a bitch' lol
engineer: "we're nowhere near the crossover point"
Ben: "As you heard it's time to go to inters"
Vettel???
Ben: "Meanwhile, back on the podium..."
*top three squirting champagne*
Ben: "As you heard it's time to go to inters"
Rule 1: switch to inters when drs gets disabled
Yep
Rule 2: switch to slicks when drs gets enabled
Engineer: It's no where near the cross-over point
Ben: There you go my engender summing up my grip levels
WTF
Ben, surely you should have figured out by now that the DRS being disabled is the signal for the crossover to inters on this game
Ben is really bad at following directions if you hadn't figured it out
you didn't have patch for this. in the patch it has fuel remaining on the menu where you can change the fuel
like it says "fuel mix (3 laps)" something like that
PC patches are a little farther ahead too, except that has crashing to desktop most of the time so console versions are still better at the moment even without the patch (they may even have it, but Ben just doesn't have it yet).
+Comanso Rowlett the console patch is already there.. I have it on ps4
+Comanso Rowlett that's because pc is better than those console peasants
+Jackieboy but the PC version still has the crashing to desktop at random points still, which is annoying Im sure you'll agree.

Race in a forceindia or a Renault next season
R.I.P RACE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

agree
go watch calhd1
his racing is much cleaner
What ever you do don’t listen to your engineer on the F1 games.
~ Ben F1 2016
Supppppppppppp
Hey Dude, greetings from germany, keep up the awesome videos :)
Whats good Ben? Will you stick to MRT for S2 of this career mode or will you switch teams if given the chance?
Do you let anyone add you as a friend on xbox coz I want to play f1 with you online
+Tiametmarduk Nopppppppppppppppe.
I'll be staying with Manor :)
One hint:
If you don't select Inters as next tyre, your engineer will not make a fool out of you :D

Hope that helps
The AI you can’t race in the wet with Jenson button
~Ben F1 2016
jenson button didn't have any other option. it was your fault for closing the gap
maldonando's fault
+niteshmurti Must have gone through the "Maldonado Academy"
+James Box Maldo-nado's driving schoooool

Looking forward to season 2, this has been my favourite series ever on youtube.
Great video once again. I don't think you've got the patch yet because the patch adds a fuel indicator next to the engine mix option in the OSD which wasn't visible.

Man I don't even like racing. But I watch your videos everyday, they're amazing! Keep up the amazing work :D
14:23 your fault you didn't leave enough room
that could have been avoided if there was virtual mirrow
no, Ben was already in front of Jenson, so it's his fault. he should brake earlier.
button had front wing on inside of Ben
+vjollila96 the front wing isnt enough,you have to have half a car or more
+Bruno Medeot "any significant portion" includes the front wing. Halfway alongside is not a rule
Yo dude loving the content found you on the 2nd episode keep it up
I love your series bro, it hurt me to see the glorious manor go down
I wish that f1 career mode has more scenes like those in the NBA 2k,in which you really immerse yourself into the environment like arguing with your engineer,physical fights etc
"should be easy to reach the team goal" ~ Tiametmarduk 2k16 :'D
Allready waiting for the next episode :)
Hey Ben, you're my favourite youtuber I love your vids :)
cheers Adam!
+Tiametmarduk aarava is beating you in career mode !
He has a mclaren what do you expect or did u mean he is finishing the career mode first
the second part
Spoiler
Liuzzi finishes 12th
that came outta no where
NOOOO I HATE YOU !!!
.-.
Is this Belgium 07 or Italy 10?
Mad Dog o
Nice to see that it's not only Ben his career mode, but also that of Pascal Wehrlein :D. I mean he gets his attention.
trying to get the undercut and making the pit stop just a lap or 2 early resulted in a huge difference in result...was expecting a win once you got to 1st position before your 1st pits.....Hope u can bounce back....
tbh with the aggressiveness that you've shown before this race it was always gonna come back to haunt you.
"I don't need to dive down the inside because i know i have good pace around this track," says ben as he dives down the inside of vettel
My god that Danii Kyvat avatar is horrifying! He looks like a burns victim. Great vid again!
tbf u pushed Button off so you deserved that. IRL That would be reacted to like what Verstappen did
Yeah, he left him no space when hes beside him but its too easy to just blame the AI
Button was almost completely behind him. At which point, it's up to Button to not crash into the car in front.
and he was constantly divebombing when he was fighting with the leaders
and he was probably going to cut that corner
But Ben conercutted and pushed him to get in front
He did cut the corner (which I hadn't noticed before), but he had the inside line and was ahead going into the corner. Button's AI should've yielded and try for an overtake at the next corner.
You can't always expect the AI to back out. It was your fault you made contact with Button.
"get that McLaren out of the way!" -Kimi Raikkonen
I've played legit to so far but currently in Canada I keep starting great and be near the front and crash at the end of the race. I refuse to give myself a dnf each eating I know but anyone, love this video
Can you show us the vehicle charts again?
Love your videos man! Keep up the great work
Right, right, Button's fault, you didn't cut the corner and divebomb him at all.
14:20 its not that he stuck it in there, he had no where to go with Tiametmarduk slightly cutting the corner and coming straight onto his path
The spin with jenson was your own fault. He was already on your outside and you moved to the inside of the next corner effectively cutting into him like he wasn't even there, spinning yourself out
13:44 "how much grip there was" *slides into corner*
You dont have the new patch... The patch also includes some HUD changes... You can for example select if you want a front wing change or not and you can see how much fuel you have on page one of the MFD*. I dont see those so i dont think u have it yet ;)

Double upload tommorow!? Please Ben!

"We're nowhere near the crossover point" - Jeff
damn it ben
The engineer strategy recommendation is fucked when you set tyres to inters before the crossover period. If you keep dry tyres as next tyres, the recommendations made by jeff are good
haha, so recognizable to argue with/about Jeff. You should have listened to him three laps earlier ;)
Great vid again!
What a realistic game indeed! A manor in first just before the end of the first season! Must be winning races next season!
awesome video again!!! love to watch youre videos!! regarts from germany
i dont think youve got the patch yet as you dont have the option to change front wing and the fuel level isnt show next to the mix selection in the mfd, unless thats a pc thing
15:40 yup. this is Ben. you may remember him from the top 3 on lap 5. then he threw his life away and started taking cannibas. don't do drugs kids, or you may end up like ben
the PC patch put the fuel level on the first page beside the fuel mode so IDK if the Xbox patch is different or it hasn't come yet
this is fun to watch at 0.5 speed :D
Yep!!!
0.5 speed is Manor 2015 Simulator

awsome
Don't drink and drive.

Two things I really wish Codemasters would sort out is engineer instructions and being held up in the pits. The same problems have been in every F1 game since 2010.

Otherwise, awesome game! And awesome series here! :)
You got hit by, you got struck by a smooth criminal
actually jeff the race engineer was actually also on f1 2015
your my favorite YTber, watching from THE Netherlands👌😂
ben crashing on final lap sad music plays.... ben: meanwhile on the podium 😂😂😂
Slipstream is so overpowered. I mean, he overtakes the Mercedes and Ferrari in a Manor so easy on the straights...
Sainz won in Mexico in my career with Nasr 2nd, I also retired in my sauber
I'm on the update on PC and you still get more SC than me, im at germany still 0 SCs yet wtf
Has the new patch made any difference, I haven't noticed any difference with the AI. Their still easy to overtake.
Did Codemasters ever say if they were going to bring out a sort of classic car DLC or anything?
Unlucky Ben, your engineer must come from the same university as mine, effing useless for strategy changes. He has cost me points in 2 races already. Great videos, always enjoyable.
It's incredible to see that the AI has almost beat JD's TT time in the Mercedes!
it's a glitch you chose intermediates before the enginner asked to chance strategy I had the same thing I chose intermediates as I knew there was going to be rain, Jeff asked about strategy change.After that race I then did a quick race 50% around Monza(dry conditions) and chose Wet tyres. Jeff asked about a strategy change and wanted to put me onot Full Wets, so maybe you should tell Codies about this glitch so they can fix it
I like that the patch came out with "sc" and so...
great Video.
i have a question for you ben why aarav is not playing youtuber championship with you all?
(sorry for my bad english but i come from Austria and we speak german there ;D)
He's going back to Uni, so he doesn't have a great deal of time. He does aerodynamics course which is quite a full on. Also, Aarav and Ben have a Co-op series, so only 2 people need to agree a time to record, while YT Championship needs 4/5 people to be available at the same time, thus being much harder.
jenson has come back to haunt you from co-op
Let's be honest Benjamin here. You left Jensen absolutely no room to manoeuvre.
patch hasnt been live on the xbox played f1 today and no update.
the manor was leading the race and the winner is grosjean with haas 100% real no fake . Good video
Update came through yesterday on my PS4 (Europe, Belgium)
Ben can you do a comparing video. Where you compare f1 2016 on the pc and the 2016 mod for f1 2014
I just got a Logitech G29 for the ps4 for my 11th b-day, and I've looked at a Thrustmaster steeringwheel but i have a question: Which wheel is better. Logitech or Thrustmaster?
rumour has it that if your this early benjamin might reply
Nah
Instead of answering these messages giving yourself airs you could answer the important ones, don't you think?
+Tiametmarduk +alejandro agree
wow i didnt expect you to reply!!luv your vids mate keep up the good work and if you get an invite from another team would u join!
at 11:10 the engineer told you it was nowhere near the changing point and your saying he told you to pit
Codemaster really need to fix the AI when having to go around crashes like in the first few corners. They simply just stop there.
Next time when you crash please edit aaravs sad face in it. Just like you did in one of the 2006 career mode videos.
hi how can i get a better time in this Grand prix ? I just get 1:20 with the Mercedes in time trial , l use automatic ...some adivice to get a faster lap ?
Im early let me think of a joke
Danil kvyat
Lol
The new pastor Maldonado
True he just keeps disappointing
+Luca Piani bit too far tbf
or rio haryanto
Unbelieveable Jeff!!!
NOOO YOU DIDINT GET TO SEE THE CONFETI ON THE LAST LAP IN THE STADIUM SECTION
How are you so good with all the race lines !
Wow.
You were doing pretty good, but then the rain came and it all went in the toilet. The early call to inters, then the spin and then the crash.
And to make matters worse, the banana car finished 4th.
ben I just love your caeerer modes
Ben or anybody else, are you having problems with the game since the update/patch? My game has crashed a couple times since its been updated on my ps4. Just curious if anyone else is also having problems.
Have you never played F1 2010? --> Kerbs: Attack them in the dry, avoid them in the wet!
that speeding in the pitlane warning during qualifying though, cheeky, who much you pay charlie to not get a grid penalty ;)
how*
The AI just pushed me off the track on the start finish straight in Hungary out of nowhere and for no reason!! the race was over for me... sometimes they are really overaggressive!
xb patch isn't out yet :/ hope it's released soon I know Codies have submitted it to xb so they need to sort it out now
Found ur channel just now and watched the career but i want next season to start so the car getting even better. Will be lot of podiums for u next season...hurry up! lol.
Don't worry Ben, everyone has bad races somewhere
Love ur vids keep it up !
What difficulty are u doing? +Tiametmarduk
yes Ben ,that is the new update. I had the same incident in Spa in the rain, Kvyat was being aggressive n knocked both of us out of the race.. I thought 'jeeze,aint that a bitch' lol
That moment when Ben said ''Romain Grosjean out of nowhere won the mexican gp'' :DDD a tipp for season 2 never listen to jeff xD
Ben will you be doing Forza Horizon 3 cross map race
Grosjean basically doubled his points haul with one race
What's the very sad music you use when you crash?
In this new patch the AI have a bad start after VSC or SC no matter the diffulcty I was on ultimate and I was in 15th and in 1 straight I was in 9th.
Ben completes the First to last challenge
