So does anyone know what that ghosty type effect is on the back of the cars off the rear wing during replay ..and can it be turned off ?

OK so I think I fixed it...turned off TAA

What is great about the new handling model is that you can feel the downforce kicking in and can only really go full throttle at that point. The F2 cars are crazy twitchy in comparison.

Really don't like the F2 cars! Feel like I'm tip toeing all the time when using them. And they're crazy slow to slow down in comparison to F1.

I hate Monaco. How do the drivers do it? Chaining up a perfect lap feels special, but one lock up and you are truly screwed.

I've found I don't lock up too much, if at all, with the F1 cars. Had lock up problems with the F2 cars often though. Almost every lap!

You can see what I mean on my vid.

No idea. Try with the racing line aids on

If someone knows how to change AI difficulty during a season, that would be helpful!

I'm on 80 'hard' but finishing 6th every race in the Toro Rosso. Fighting Ferrari and Red bull, clear of F1.5.

I think it'd be more fun fighting to get in the points.

Not tried it myself yet but I think between race weekends when you press advance you can get into the options menu but you have to be quick esp if you're installed on an ssd. From what I've read this is what could be done in F1 2018 and 2017 so should be the same.

This will be my first F1 game for a long time and I'd like to get a wheel. Can anyone recommend an entry level one? Don't want to spend big just in case I don't like it.

When loading between sessions press the menu button

Try 90. The difficulty increases well. You can increase the difficulty between most sessions.

Budget?

Honestly, I have no idea how much these cost. Is £50 enough?

You can just about grab a ps4 or xbone controller for that price...

Don't think you will get better for the price.

I do have one already but want a more 'realistic' feel and game play.

Looks great for the price. Compatible with F1 2019?

If I upped my budget to £120, what is the best wheel and pedals to buy?

Ok, scrap that above. I've been looking at the Thrustmaster T150. Does anyone use this? How is it in game?

The1nonly1 · 10 Jul 2019 at 14:37

Went with the G29 in the end.

Smart move. I bought a cheap wheel originally and should have gone straight to G29 level.

So glad I did as it's a great wheel. Quality is great on this. What kind of stand would you recommend to mount it on? I've seen one on the bay for £56 which looks decent and folds up.

I am lucky that I can mount it on my desk in a reasonable position. Some decent stands out there, none seem all that cheap though!

I can mount it, just a pain as I have to remove it when not in use though. I'll have a shop around.

Yes, it is a pain to have to move it all the time.
