Also if you want just pure pace, turning off ERS battle assist actually reduces lap time, but it is handy to keep it on for most of the race to not worry too much about recharging i'll give it that
@@tylerbell9167 do u even watch F1 mate, when it comes to pace George is better than Hamilton I don't even like Russel but it's true, frontier have always been shit at rating drivers and performance
I did a sim save with Merc until 2030. Struggled first half of the first season but I won some in the second half and got 3rd. Luckily didn't get fired
I simmed a whole season and only had 2 faults picked up and they were fairly worn parts. I developed a little different than you are here but what I did worked out well
I do really enjoy the longer videos, but yeah I get that a 90min. full season is algorithm poison. I would like to see just a brief S02 recap video, who you replaced Hamilton with, etc.
As a Mercedes fan I always start the game doing this. I always succeed so well (around 15 victories at least) that it gets a little boring. Luckily now they have fixed ai development, making ai a lot closer than before
Is there any reason to use Intense design? If you want your setup to be saved and simulate practice. Enter your setup and save. Then quit to the main menu and load that save. You should be able to sim practices and the AI won't mess with the changes.
Intense makes all parts made later on better. But you can just counteract that by designing more parts which is arguably cheaper and gives you more control. For research it's more useful but still costs too much money to be justifiable
Not really, intense can be really good at low expertise levels but as of now I don't find it necessary. Intense is also 3x cost for 1.5x the gain. Thanks for the practice tip :)
Not to surprising :) The two main things I think that I've been requested in the comments here over the past couple of days have been pit crew and how do you win with Merc since they want 2nd place. Been struggling with my microphone being unrealiable aswell today so decided to make something a bit easier :)
Okay. Anyways, I’m still deciding on which driver to replace Hamilton. I was gonna go with Antonelli, but you can’t sign him as a main driver until season 3. I was gonna put the replacement driver on a one year contract, but for some reason, it has me signing them for two seasons instead of one. Do you know which driver should replace Hamilton if you’re doing a Mercedes save?
I haven’t scouted him, so I don’t know. But when I was doing Williams earlier today, I signed him for season 2. But I’m still keeping Albon in that save.
@@NeroBax yes I got Carlos and I didn’t even complete the second season because I got bored of winning lol. It’s too easy to win every single race by like a minute and it gets boring after a while.
Yeah Mercedes start towards the bottom of the top 4 teams at the start of the season but if you upgrade you can probably overthrow Red Bull and McLaren by season ones end
The AI starts research as soon as it's open. Doesn't mean you have to do it at the same time, but generally a good rule is to have 1 Design Center slot reserved for Research mroe or less as soon as it opens. Obviously depends on your design development plan (if you plan to design multiple front wings or underfloors, you can hold off on research), but some components that I only make small amounts of (sidepods, suspension, for example), I basically slap 1 engineer onto a research project for that part and use the other 3 slots for design. This makes more sense to do in Create a Team as well, where the Cost Cap is much lower in Season 1 with a created team but not a real team
When checking progree for next year could you maybe go as far as testing then the results of Bahrain testing are the benchmark even if you ended at end of the season before
Yeah, I don't see why not, game has only been out for a couple of weeks though so I'll give it a little bit of time before I start messing around to much with it. Atleast 1-2 more patches.
I just went into my 3rd season in My Team. After winning with a 1000 Points I decided to switch teams. I choose Haas. I join them we are on -30 Million Money. We have no drivers and No Technical Director. The worst car on the Grid. And all the facilities are in The Orange or red condition. Don’t know what they were doing in season 2 but looking forward to the challenge
im in the second season and after upgrading each part, the next parts bring close to no upgrade what should i do in this situation? should i keep designing parts in the 'optimal' way and just not manufacture each one of them or should i design them in the way opposite to the 'optimal'? i know that the condition of the facilities plays the factor but the staff is improving. any tips?
As you get closer to the expertise ceiling your gains will be lower and lower, at that point I'd probably start researching next seasons car instead of designing new ones if the gains are small.
What’s the trick to upgrading the car ? I watch you do it but I’m trying to understand so I can do it by myself? Is it focusing on one thing at a time ?
Hello my dear, I'm new to your channel, you know, well, I want to create the BMW team in F1 with Drugovich and Mick Schumacher, at the beginning with the level 3 car, using this Mercedes method, will it work?
I'm with Aston Martin and I have great mid season progress so far only issue on my save is that Alonso compete for the championship. He god some minor damages on the car but compared with stroll is some kind of no big issue. after 11 races stroll have 5 DNF's from loosing the control of the car most of them. Is any glitch with the second driver's mate?
Mate can you tell me if the patch has been released for consoles too? I got the game yesterday and i find MAX overpowered. ERS over powered and feels more unrealistiic than the 23. What are ur thoughts
In real life you have upgrades that don't work, as an example the zeropod concept, in theory it is the fastest car but doesn't actually work out in reality. In the game you know the exact gains before you even start designing the upgrade in real life you don't.
I'd say it is a good upgrade a this point, steam christmas sale is right around the corner so would probably wait a few days to see if it gets a big discount.
I started a My team save and played 2 seasons and won WDC and WCC in second season (2025) then I decided to join Mercedes and the car was 3rd fastest at the start of 2026 and I won the WCC and WDC with hamilton with 17 wins on the season. And then season 2027 was pure dominance and the car was so overpowered, I had Bottas + Hamilton lineup for these 2 seasons. I won all 24 races with 1022 points on the season. Then went to Ferrari for 2028 to get them back to glory since they were down in 5th for the last few seasons and yep I won the WCC and WDC in that same season, now 2029 in my save im at Haas and already got P5 in the second race of the season and Haas hadn't scored a point in 3 seasons. I play on standard difficulty and it's very easy to develop the car it's pretty nuts when you can understand even a tiny bit about the upgrades in this game, Hard difficulty it is I guess.
Im currently trying to limit the damage by getting the fastest lap every race. I generally know the maximum at the start is gonna be P7 and P8, so giving at least one of the drivers a short soft stint at the end
I'd suspect that Monaco result was a red flag situation where Hamilton had passed the pit entry before the red flag was thrown and had to complete that extra lap to get back to the pits. I've had this happen a couple of times, also happened on last years game as well.
Also if you want just pure pace, turning off ERS battle assist actually reduces lap time, but it is handy to keep it on for most of the race to not worry too much about recharging i'll give it that
They did Russell kinda dirty making him like 3 tenths off the pace of Hamilton which was kinda the opposite at the start of the season
He's better than Lewis in Quali irl but isn't the gap in terms of race pace much bigger in favour to Lewis?
Ye i use the database mod
@@stevenjoseph6048 well at the start of the season (which is what the game tries to replicate) Russel was quicker typically in race pace too
@@shrek8692mate it’s a game that is off rating if you think George is going to beat Lewis you need your head checked😂😂

Dude i was literally the whole season 7/8 with merc but with your help i am literally winning races thats craaaaazy thank you so much
I’m currently dominating in my Mercedes save with George Russell.

I managed to sign all my team to 6yr contracts with a 10x breakout multiplier as well 😂
Did you pay them 90 Million pro year?? They always deny my contracts
@@rafaelblasquez4492 actually no I paid them at most 3-3.5 mil for main two staff 1.5 mil for sporting director and 1.5 for each race engineer
@@rafaelblasquez4492 driver's were 5.5 for Theo and 3 for doohan
can you explain more on research and expertise
What part of the season is it better to stop developing the car and start focusing on research for the following year?
The AI starts research as soon as it's open. Doesn't mean you have to do it at the same time, but generally a good rule is to have 1 Design Center slot reserved for Research mroe or less as soon as it opens.

I am still learning with F1 but … I appreciate this video so much . Can you do one with redbull or maybe with Ferrari?
Honestly the strategy I employed here should work just as well with Red Bull or Ferrari :)
i always do practise but turn car down to conserve... I'm not after the best laps just the right set ups. keeps engine running longer
I got a 1 2 with merc on the first race by using as least fuel as possible and low fuel consumption
When checking progree for next year could you maybe go as far as testing then the results of Bahrain testing are the benchmark even if you ended at end of the season before
Are you gonna do a race strategy guide for this one too and a development guide for all teams not just for a Monaco run?
Yeah, I don't see why not, game has only been out for a couple of weeks though so I'll give it a little bit of time before I start messing around to much with it. Atleast 1-2 more patches.
Are we gonna ignore the fact that Lewis lapped the entire grid in Monaco??? 1:05:01

In my third season of my team. Maloney wins championship 6 races early with almost 1000 points across both drivers lol
55:06 just a checkmark for myself
many thanks
When i play f1 manager for my saves i am only allowed 2 upgrades at a time, so i dont just dominate
you were 1 point shy of the record in constructor points (860)
will be there season 2
im in the second season and after upgrading each part, the next parts bring close to no upgrade what should i do in this situation? should i keep designing parts in the 'optimal' way and just not manufacture each one of them or should i design them in the way opposite to the 'optimal'? i know that the condition of the facilities plays the factor but the staff is improving. any tips?

What’s the trick to upgrading the car ? I watch you do it but I’m trying to understand so I can do it by myself? Is it focusing on one thing at a time ?
The trick is to focus on what the parts excel at, in this case with an additional focus on cornering as cornering is the biggest factor in pace.
@@NeroBax ok sweet thanks so much dude, love the videos

@@NeroBax thanks man. I race him on low aggression because I think his low rate on reactions makes him prone on pressure
Mate can you tell me if the patch has been released for consoles too?
I got the game yesterday and i find MAX overpowered.
ERS over powered and feels more unrealistiic than the 23.
What are ur thoughts
Console has not received 1.4 yet. ERS does seem really powerful this year.
So as a new fan, is it this early to compete in real life? Why don’t teams do it? Financial?
In real life you have upgrades that don't work, as an example the zeropod concept, in theory it is the fastest car but doesn't actually work out in reality. In the game you know the exact gains before you even start designing the upgrade in real life you don't.
I'm currently Williams in f1 m 23, is it worth buying 24?
I'd say it is a good upgrade a this point, steam christmas sale is right around the corner so would probably wait a few days to see if it gets a big discount.
With this patch the game Is now playable without contract bug, AI development bugs and so on?
Playable yes, but would probably be better to wait for the next patch at the very least for a better experience.
@@NeroBax thank you! How much do you think It will take for the next patch?
No idea, but I would guess sometime next week.
Thank you!

Sounds boring
Sounds boring
@@sxx01 coz it was
it was very easy because the game was bugged and the AI only develops 2 parts, so any time can dominate the championship in 2 seasons.
@@doghat1619 but that got fixed and i'm still dominating
Was this before the new patch?
It is with the new patch. Patch 1.4.
Are you doing an around the grid challenge again this year?
Im you biggest fan from Germany
Yes, but I am gonna wait until we get a couple more patches to make the AI more competitive.
continue the save with antonelli
Im currently trying to limit the damage by getting the fastest lap every race. I generally know the maximum at the start is gonna be P7 and P8, so giving at least one of the drivers a short soft stint at the end
seems a.i develops all parts now but they do it horribly, hoping it becomes better then 23s a,i eventually
It seems like the mentality system may have broken the game lol. Too many new lines of codes
Can u do a create a team domination video
Any wishes? Depending on difficulty it could be a very different experience.
I'd suspect that Monaco result was a red flag situation where Hamilton had passed the pit entry before the red flag was thrown and had to complete that extra lap to get back to the pits. I've had this happen a couple of times, also happened on last years game as well.
It works with aston martin?
Should work yeah.
Thinking of replacing Hamilton with leclerc for the 2nd season
The Ferrari switchero.
Not poaching my team without paying me a lot of money 🤑🤑💰💰
Possible make williams or ferrari please ? :)
Ferrari and Williams should be fairly similar to what you see here, should work for both teams.
Plesse could you do a tutorial on edting car performance with the database editor
Russell on my mercedes save performs better than Hamilton every race. Hamilton needs a bit of a buff imo
What is the point of playing the game right now?? AI still cant properly develop their car,we as players have a massive advantage....
Ok
You need to do ferrari i cant win this game as them
