So I got promoted and then accepted a job from Ozu because weeb.
I am now in a tight spot. The team is losing money and the staff and car are ok but nothing special.
1 tip I would give people. It is worth getting drivers with 100% marketability. They will want more wages but it is worth it when you get a whole row of 4 star sponsors.

Oh they aren't that bad in mine. They are bottom of the APS but can easily win the ERS.
Erm I can't remember specifically. I just know my profits went up.
1st place sponsors usually pay about 1.7 mill per race if you hit the target at 4 stars.
Something that I noticed. Setups are on a race to race basis. Got an excellent setup, then reloaded the game and tried the exact same setup in the same practice session and it was only 95% good. So it takes into account that the track changes race to race. Hence why F1 actually has practice sessions.

I bought this game just before release day to get the 10% off pre-order bonus, but have only racked up a relatively modest 53 hours so far (and quite a bit of that was single races to test 'things'). This is not the fault of the game, at least not since patch 1.2 fixed the crippling blue flag issue that made me not want to play version 1.1. It really is a great game, one that I want to play a lot more of in the near future. My first career save was a short one with Panther to get rule 63 Ricciardo a world title;
Steinmann dropped the ball by letting Chapman go to Windsor, so Wexler was Sharp's only real opponent all season and even he fell away once I developed the car some more. Sharp finished on the podium in all 16 races, and I decided to mimic the real life Red Bull and pick up De Graaf when he somehow ended up a free agent in the off-season driver shuffle. Having won the championship and set Panther up for a long period of dominance on this file, my next career save will almost certainly be a long-term game with Predator, with me forgoing manager perks and selecting 'Outsider' to make it more of a challenge.

So.
I was given the 3 choices for expected finishing position. 5th, 7th, 9th. Took 5th. Walked out of the first race with a 1,2 finish.
I am in debt and losing money though. My drivers may be the best on the grid and the sponsorship attraction may be at 4 stars but I need the current sponsor deals to run out.

Don't forget the sponsors on the other side either. I have three four star sponsors paying me a fixed $500K per race, that gives me 1.5 million before bonuses!

I know that. I am just waiting for the 3 and 2 star deals that were in place when I took over to expire so I can make some money.
Does anyone know what % the 5 star stuff becomes available? I don't want to build the heli pad too soon.

Does anybody know if there is an age limit in this game? I put my real age (54) in when I started and I am on my 15th season so I am pushing 70 in the game. Can I get canned for being too old...wonder if the age thing goes to 3 digits

Sooo, I bought this game while it was on sale some time ago, and I gotta say, it's been good fun so far. Once I sort-of figured out how the game works, that is.
After endless hours doing single races, I moved into the career and.. let's just say that didn't go according to plan. So I started anew, some experiences richer, and have decided to challenge myself and take Predator to glory, with no perks whatsoever. I'm currently running the team based on saving money and improving reliability rather than performance, hoping to avoid mid-race repairs outside of SC periods.
First round of the season, as one would perhaps expect from the above, didn't go too well. 17th and 20th and nothing at all exciting happened.
Round 2, Ines manages 9th place, which, given that this is a Predator and a not-too-experienced player, I'd say was not too shabby. Probably helped by the perk reducing wear on the parts, allowing me to push it more.
Before round 3, I did what I imagine most people have done and managed to snatch Cruz. Granted, he did have the advantage of starting on pole, but he *just* missed out on 7th to Jha. Again, I'll take it, mainly because the brakes threatened to give up for the entirety of the last two laps. Could probably have pitted for softs a lap earlier, but oh well.
Currently at around 4 million and in not-last when it comes to Teams Championship, which, y'know, is not bad when you consider this is the equivalent of Andrea Moda. Whatever money I spent on getting Cruz, he's paid back in one race. And I've got him until the end of 2017.

Edit: 5th for Cruz in Round 4, and enough points to jump his team mate who's been in twice as many races this season. And another nice million to improve the car. Definitely need to work on the brakes, Cruz has a tendency to "brake" them. Ha, eh.. I'll show myself out.

That feeling when you sign your main driver for a 3 year contract extension. Then you notice his marketability go down the pan and due to slightly higher potential your second driver becomes better.
