driver management and automation

[Dragonsblade]

So my 1 concern is how difficult will it be managing the 2 drivers during the race. What with the options to set ERS, and race pace.
Will there be automation for these or for 1 driver, or is it not really an issue?

its almost the same in Motorsport Manager and in that game it is possible but it is very hard to optimize it if you are speeding up time

[Dragonsblade]

Yeah played Motorsport manager and while slightly simpler, was still a pain. That's why II'm on the fence right now.

Doesn't actually look too difficult, It's more or less the same as MM. ERS in F! M might be more hand-off as you can set the mode and change it later. Neutral being the most hand-off while keeping it usable. Harvesting if you need to charge battery after using the more 'discharge' heavy modes but they are purely circumstantial in their use.

So if you can play MM without major issue, I don't see why F1 Man 22 would be more complex.

UNLESS, you are one of those MIN-MAX manics that feel compelled to flip between settings on every corner, every straight, every lap for both drivers LOL!!!!
(Totally unnecessary IMO and IS ABSOLUTE MADNESS!!!!)

Hopefully, they will add a way to automate it if the player desire it, enabling your engineers to work with the drivers like IRL and allow you to focus on one driver in particular or other things throughout the races like arguing with race control etc..

Use the hotkeys, makes life simple. Like someone else said, unless you're changing setting 24/7 trying to min/max every corner/straight it's really not that difficult.
