This more noticeable in season 2 minor upgrades only. With minor upgrades your maxed out but with only the minors. Racing against maxed out cars with all the true major and ultimate upgrade. Speed difference is completely broken. Disable the scenario and it’s night and day difference. Some scenarios work but only the ones that don’t restrict a department. Remember it’s ea sports.
Hey R&d scenarios don’t work. You have power train only, the ai keep the other 3 departments. When you max power train your racing against maxed out cars but you don’t have the other 3 departments when the ai do. Check r@d graph game thinks there maxed out. Disable the scenario skip 1 session check the graph again. Your back to there level.
Do you think it would be realistic to go to Ferrari when both there drivers are doing really good. Maybe one more year at Haas, like genuinely making a top 5 finish (personal not team) with them. Then get a big move.
