Season Reset: Car with maxed (50) Skill in everything

Normally I don't think it's possible since I doubt that 2 races as a CDs strength would be enough to reach the cap, especially since it's also 2 races as another CDs weakness.

In this case there's another effect coming in though. The manager joined last season. His last seasons car was crippled but the next season after joining somehow gives a bonus. I suspect the development pool determining the next seasons car is not properly cleared by switching leagues so it carries points from the races before switching leagues into the new league where the points of the races are added on top. I might be completely wrong about the reason but at least the effect is there and it means that just 2 CDs having different weaknesses, or the strength of one countering the weakness of the other if one had more races, can be enough to get the above result.

I'd like to see this game behavior as a bug but it might be intended, or at least accepted, for some reason by the devs. Same with the new car having the DP distribution rules of the former tier if you get promoted or relegated, giving those teams an edge early in the season in the lower tier and a penalty in the higher. Which favours the possibility that teams become elevator teams going up and down every season for a while until they manage to get a foothold or loose their promotion spot to another team.

That trick only applies with 2 Chief Designers, because there's this 50 point cap, which can't (at least couldn't be) achieved more than twice.


I've also seen a maxed car in my [url="https://igpmanager.com/app/p=league&id=1187"]League[/url] this Season, but as it had happened in a slow team I did not take any screenshots to make a post.

Do you remember what post is it??
