The hardest part for me so far is not actually driving the cars

its knowing how hard and fast I can take them through the tracks I don't know well enough - I just need to put in practice time :)

This was my problem too in my first season. Now in my second season I take tuning, practice and qualifications more seriously and it definitely improved my racing.
 
Still struggling... but... have to say this...

This game is incredible. I wish Codemasters got more credit for this game... truly one of the best racing games ever. I can't believe some of the negative things I read about this game on the internet....

The graphics, the AI, the rules/penalties, the amount of options to adjust difficulty, the tracks, the rain, the spectacular crashes, the camera angles, the pit crew, the paddock, the mechanics, the immersion...

I'm watching on board laps and learning driving lines from real-life... then applying it into this game... F1 2010 not being a sim? My ass!

I mean, have you guys even tried racing on a full weekend with full laps? It's just amazing... I truly believe there are a lot of F1 fans over at CM.

All that's missing to make this game more immersive is a parade lap, podium, and safety car... I hope for the next game they carry over what they have here and just fix bugs and add more to the game... I hope they don't change anything too radically.

...I'm slowly drifting away from my love of car racing and getting more and more in love with open-wheelers.... hmm... is there any way I can replace the wheel on my Logitech G27 with an F1 style wheel!? 💡

I've been pretty fast with a ds3 since day one. For learning purposes turn on the driving line, I find that nailing the braking point is critical, it sets up the corner for you to "nom nom" on. For online, forget fastest lap, just focus on driving clean. Even if this sometimes means you break early and sacrifice some corners. Most people's Achilles is their inconsistency, so a clean drive = podium. You learn to be smooth with practice.
