your budgets are already updated, standings too (I forgot after the sprint)

Calculations for the drivers' battle

Since Russell is out (by his own mistake

), it is only a 2 way fight, although I was hoping for a 3-way.

Abu Dhabi Qualifying

OUT: GAS, BOT, PIA, ALO, GIO

OUT: PER, HUL, MAG, ALB, ZHO

Soft: 18 laps
Medium: 30 laps
Hard: 38 laps

Potential strategies (i didn't test them, but the values should approximately be ok):
#1a: soft-hard with pitstop on lap 18, and a few laps of tyre saving on hard
#1b: soft-medium with pitstop on lap 21, tyre saving all race
#2: soft-medium-soft with pitstops on laps 15,43
#3: soft-soft-medium-soft with push all race and pitstops on laps 12,25,45

First update until lap 18
Deadline 4.12. 08:00 CET

Milos · Dec 5, 2022

Abu Dhabi Laps 1-18

next update until lap 43
Deadline 6.12. 10:00 CET

edit:

Milos · Dec 6, 2022

Abu Dhabi Laps 19-43

I need to update the point for fastest lap being given outside top 10 in the live table, but I think Perez will return to the top 10 anyway.
Should be noted that Norris has the deployment failure, so I believe the championship will be decided only on where Perez finishes.

Deadline until 7.12. 20:00 CET

I don't recall asking for a DNF and cardiac arrest in my team orders.

Milos · Dec 8, 2022

Abu Dhabi Laps 44-58

With that, the season is over.
I will now release all the car stats for S1

Milos · Dec 8, 2022

For season 2, I would like to run it but only if there is more interest.
-It would have less races (likely 9 or 12)
-You can build your own drivers, and the skills for those drivers

Thanks for moderating such a complicated game, Milos. It was fun and engaging!

@Milos thanks for running this great game. I think you nailed the tyre deg almost every race, so it was a challenge to get the advantage on other teams' strategies. I remember gambling a few times and it working out some. What was most difficult for me was to guess the crossover points on wet-dry races. Especially when we had to do it many laps in advance.

It was very hard to be good the whole season, especially with the threat of DNFs on the cheaper engines. I would like to see better reliability from the start. Stroll with 13 DNFs is insane. Norris still won the championship with 8 DNFs. The worst driver in F1 this season was Sainz with 6 DNFs.

Fewer races...I'm not sure. I think this played so well because there were many races and the top teams changed multiple times. If you want us to build driver skills, then we need more rewards after a race. I rarely was able to make more than one upgrade just to the car. So, adding in driver upgrades would be that much more expensive. I'm not against doing it...just make it more accessible.

You could do more 10 delay upgrades, you would get more for less money......
I would be nowhere if no 10 delay upgrades
