I can't change ERS during race

[Deankenny]

Had alot of fun on myteam for the first race, loving adding sponsors to the car feels so much more personal now. Only problem I had was I couldn't change the ERS deployment in race, I even went and set a MFD shortcut for it on the wheel and that didn't work either, any help?

it is fully auto this year like real life

That doesn't make sense for 2 reasons, 1, I was able to change it in all the practice sessions and 2, there's an option to change it from auto to manual.

There is a setting for it to be auto, did you set it like this by accident maybe?

In races you only got the Overtake button like it is irl

[Deankenny]

It's not set on auto, and that's what I mean, I can't set it to overtake.

In the Race you have only 1 Mode you can use and thats the Overtake Button. If you dont use the Overtake Button it´ll stay forever in Mode 1. They simplified it because it was just way too much work to do in every Corner.

ERS auto/manual applies to the overtake override button, that is all you have control over just like real life.

As mentioned above guys, it doesn't work, I am talking about the overtake button, as it's the race only it happened. Practice is fine. I'm sure i'll get it sorted once I have another play this evening :) can't wait

out of curiosity how exactly are you trying to change it? by opening the pannel and trying to select ERS i assume?

if so, Overtake mode is bound to a button, you dont select if through the ERS option in the MFD

and the button you mapped was for "overtake" right? not ERS increase/decrease in MFD shortcuts

because overtake button is mapped by default, you shouldnt have needed to set one unless your on certain wheels.

other than your doing something wrong i have no idea why you cant do it as it works fine for everyone else.
there is 2 threads on here with this topic and the otherone people were trying to manually change it like 2019 instead of using the overtake button.


for clarity you should not be setting a button for it in MFD Shortcuts tab.
under control scheme, scroll all the way down, it says "overtake" default bind is L1/LB

that is the only ERS control you get during a race, it is not like F1 2019 where you can switch modes during a race.


the auto/manual in assits just means the AI will handle when to use the overtake button instead of you.
its basically just a slightly longer lasting KERS button.


Example: My Button 6 on wheel is my Overtake button.
