So I finally picked this up before Christmas in the sale. Big difference from when I last played it (F1 2017). It looks absolutely smashing and the cars feel good when you get the setup that suits you.
Really enjoying the My Team mode which I honestly thought would be useless. Thereās nothing that we havenāt seen in other games to be fair but thereās something about it that is really clicking with me. Ditched my first team mate and was really frugal with my cash from sponsor goals so that I could get a better team mate in the second season. So surprised that I actually managed to get Charles Leclerc.
Had a quick shot online in a ranked game earlier. First race I started 18th because I missed entering the qualifying by a few seconds. Finished 13th after I stupidly spun on the exit of turn three at Catalunya and over corrected resulting in front wing damage. Had to pit to replace but surprisingly kept decent midpack pace after that.
Second race I qualified 11th of 18 and finished in 7th. Wouldāve been 6th but had my fuel mix on rich too long and was concentrating on the guy behind catching me. Car went into low fuel mode about twenty metres from the braking zone into the final chicane at Spa so he just flew by me. Was good fun.
