At last year’s Malaysian Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes, with flames licking out of the complex exhaust system, ground to a halt while he was comfortably leading the race.
Ultimately, it was a retirement that cost him the 2016 title and highlighted the fragility of F1 engines. It was a similar story for me during only the fourth race of my career with Toro Rosso. While scrapping with Nico Hulkenberg for sixth, and what would have been my highest finish of the season so far, my engineer Jeff came onto the radio to tell me we had serious gearbox issues. I soon lost fourth gear and the demise of fifth quickly followed, before my car stuttered to a standstill. My car’s reliability seriously needed developing. The performance upgrades would have to take a back seat for the time being.
It’s this complex series of ‘what ifs’ that have drastically improved the career mode in F1 2017 taking it strides ahead of its predecessor. Where previous iterations were simple copy and paste yourself into a team of your choice and race across the season, F1 2017 introduces full RPG mechanics in order to help develop and improve your car. Take the above scenario for instance, if perhaps I’d invested my upgrade points on reliability earlier in the season instead of jumping ahead of the curve and doubling up on power, I’d have been the hero of the team.
