Max is way too strong

The wet trait is unbalanced. Verstappen for example is often quicker on extreme wets than on intermediates which is completely unrealistic. Should be removed or reworked if possible.

I'll release an update asap!

nerf max and alonso

Alonso should be 8/9 in both at least

Thank you, yeah 1 point makes a huge difference(too much, but that's not your fault)

@Stefinho7 A one stat point difference made a huge performance difference, I'll balance it out.

Verstappen is too fast, in 2-3 laps he has 8-10 seconds from the other drivers

@Cyndatu The stats of top drivers are as follows, but I may need to change a bit.

(speed/maxspeed - focus/maxfocus)
VER: 9/10 - 9/10
NOR: 8/10 - 8/9
LEC: 8/10 - 8/8
HAM: 8/9 - 8/9
SAI: 8/9 - 8/9
PER: 7/9 - 7/8
PIA: 7/9 - 7/8
RUS: 7/8 - 8/8
ALO: 7/8 - 8/9

AI Max is insanely fast, 13 second gap to P3 Sainz by lap 5

Daniil Kvyat, Kimi Raikkonen, Marcus Ericsson, Nikita Mazepin (Free Driver) and Romain Grosjean are on the way :)

@AirLenny Noted! :)

I need Romain Grosjean! that is all! Great work though!

About dead driver / soft-locked problem: I have prepared portraits of F3 drivers. Maybe I'll add them for the lowest price.

@CaptainBeardzy Did you start before the number of drivers in the mod increased?

Same issue here. Dead driver, no money. /end

same problem here im afraid. Lance Stroll is the only zero cost driver, one of my drivers and lance died on the first race and i only had $4, which isnt enough for any drivers .

@johnniego88 Sorry to hear that :( When did you start your career? Before the latest updates there were less drivers but the latest version has 77 drivers so you shouldn't have this problem.

I love this mod, but one of my drivers died, and I didn't have enough money to hire a new driver, so that career was soft-locked. I guess you could say that I lost the game at that point, but the base game always seems to have some free drivers to use as fill-ins. Otherwise a great mod. RIP Pato :(

Great addition! Can't wait to check it out.

be better with illustrations of the cars instead of photos/renders.

Cheers @GamerRocko

@Marco_POG I'll add F1 engineers and crew chiefs soon :)

One more thing! I'll raise team budgets and this way all teams will be able to get their real drivers when starting a new career.

Hey all. There is a special character problem (Théo Pourchaire , Joshua Dürksen, Sophia Flörsch) and I'll fix it today. This may solve the crashing problem.

@Baguette Cheers for that. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

@mrmanzfield Yeah the game just keeps loading, started 3 saves and all of them do it.

you are legend

Has there been any issues with the mod crashing after starting the game up again? Its just currently stuck on the load screen.

I love your mod. Thank you so much for your work!
Will you also add team bosses (Toto) and chief engineers like Adrian Newey or James Allison ?

Max was out of a seat in the first season and Hamilton joined McLaren with Stroll, Stroll down in P6 crashes while Lewis laps the entire field. Cool mod but definitely needs the engineers and such added so pricing can be adjusted accordingly and stats balanced.

My mod seems to be broken too, I can't load any saves, it has no issues creating them though. Just an infinite loading screen.

mod çok güzel ama ilk yarışı bitirdikten sonra gelen parayla arabayı upgrade edip sonraki yarışa geçmeye çalıştığım zaman sağ alttaki tekerlek dönerken oyun donuyor acaba bunun bir çözümü var mı ?

Im trying to add the traits myself.. but then the game just freezes with the wheel spinning bottom right... Have you experienced the same?

Great mod built in such a short amount of time.

@antopalm6 I think I need to release a separate mod for this.

@Flux I'm trying to understand the impact of perks on performance and price, once I figure it out I'll add more traits to drivers :)

how can i just select teams and play with default pilots, not the real ones?

Im a little sad that you took away a lot of verstappens traits.. Now he only have three, wasnt it 6 before?

@MatijaOne Some default drivers in the game have higher stats ​​than 2024 drivers, so teams can choose between them. I'll try to solve this.

Hi, how do I pick only real drivers for championship, it seems to always add some random drivers to other teams?

@jurica.lukinic There is a official modding documentation: https://funselektor.notion.site/Golden-Lap-Modding-Documentation-2bc95ac5902b492fa3ca204cddde0a4e

How did you do this? if you could explain thank you!

Logan Sargeant cries :-( at the missed chance to relive his career.

@Giovanni Thanks :) You're right, I need to adjust both the stats/perks that determine the prices/performance of the drivers and the budgets of the teams.

Fastest mod created at a game launch, ever! :D great quality and attention to details.

Just a small thing is that hiring the correct drivers in the career with the lower teams is impossible, as they are way too expensive in the first year.

Thanks for your work!
