Hello.

I have a question. I have quite good driver (lvl 18,5, allmost max as possible), but how is possible that he is slower than much smaller level drivers and he cant keep up the speed?

Level 18 drivers suck. Overtraining is a possiblity. All my drivers seem to be faster at around level 14.

Talent is another factor most likely (do you have low talent?)

Strategy might play a key roll.

I see you are a free user too, so chances are you are severely overheating your tyres like most free users do.

Design is obviously a big part aswell. You can't really compare your drivers to another driver if they have a much better car.

Talent is 16.

But i think there is a mistake in my account. I am sometimes unbelievely slow, but i am using same speed button like my friend who has 2D. And i have same design like my friend, and i have better driver. Not fair i think.

16 isn't low, but isn't great either. My other points still stand though, and from experience a driver that gets up to level 18 just gets slower and slower. I know it's backwards and doesn't make much sense but it is what I've noticed

In this game dirty air is punishing, and enough to completely screw your race. Without manual kers you're never going to get out of traffic, so you're basically doomed. Also with that said, talent seems to mean a lot in qualifying so unless you're qualifying right up the front as a free user you're never going to win (unless your opponents have no idea what they are doing)

No no no... What it is, is that you have taken your driver to high on some of the stats..

Once they get to around the 14's in areas like decisions / focus / influence and so on.. They go backwards.

Someone made a post about the same thing a month or 2 ago..

Train them to 20's in Stamina / Reflexes and the speeds.. That is it.. Take the other stats to around the 12 to 14 area and that is them done.. weird I know, but I have seen it with my drivers as well. It's a bad bug tbh.. I don't know if Jack / Andrew are sorting this out with the new patch or not.

Not really Rob. It's mental and technical that are suspected to do jack all. You still want max speed/physical/attacking and defending.

I don't know which ones are the main ones, but I know that with some, it makes them go slower each time you level them.
