This ensures consistent track temperatures across all platforms, as track temperatures affect lap times.

 Ghosts:

- Enabled saving of community event ghosts. These ghosts are automatically stored online,

and you can then download ghosts of other players’ laps for these events.

Tracks:

- Sakitto and Summerton variations - Corrected track info regarding number of turns and track length.

- Sakitto Sprint - Fixed a crash that would at times occur when using time acceleration.

- Cadwell variations - Fixed draw distance issues on various objects.

- Zolder - Fixed an issue where the player car would sometimes start in a closed garage.

AI:

- Fixed an issue where AI vehicles were sometimes sent to the pits due

to low fuel on races where refueling is not allowed.

Pitstops:

- Pitstop strategy will now use the actual bar value for tyre pressures.

- Fixed an issue where the Pit engineer would repeatedly inform the player that a pit crew member has lost a wheel nut during pit stops.

- Fixed an issue where the Pit Engineer would call the player to stop for fuel when fuel consumption was disabled in options.

Replays:

- Improved the smoothness of the sun, moon, stars, and shadow motion when rewinding replays of a race that had a high time acceleration.

Driver Network Profile:

- Fixed an issue where at times the miles driven on a particular track or with a particular car would be logged under the wrong car or track.

This improves the accuracy of the player’s Affinity ratings.

- fixed an issue where, after the PS4 resumes from Rest Mode, no network features can be used.

Controls – All platforms

- Adjustments made to the gears system, to prevent gears being skipped under certain conditions.

- Steering wheels – reduced the centering rate of the steering spring. This improves the feel of steering wheels at very low speeds.

- Added support for the use of all active controllers for menu input. You can for example now use a steering wheel to race,

and a gamepad to control the menus and photo mode.

- Adjusted the heating of slicks and rain tyres to more realistic levels.

- Adjusted tyre temperature sensitivity on several cars.

- Adjusted rain tyres to generally be more sensitive to overheating, and less efficient in the dry.

- Improved the AI pitting logic during practice and qualifying so that the AI cars run more realistic stints before pitting.

- Reworked the AI’s fuelling logic during qualifying sessions where no refuelling is allowed,

so that they don’t always fill up the fuel tanks and negatively impact their qualifying ability. The AI will now deliver far more competitive lap times during qualifying.

- Fixed an issue where the AI would set impossible lap times during races with pit stops.

- The AI will now pit as soon as possible when low on fuel to prevent them running out of fuel and retiring from the race.

- Reduced the effect of damage to the car’s cooling system when suffering aero damage. This prevents engines from overheating and blowing at an unrealistic rate.

- Fixed an issue that prevented bump starts from working properly on some cars.

An example case: with gears and clutch set to manual, take an Ariel Atom out on Brands Hatch.

At the first right hander, stall the car, ignition on, 2nd gear, roll down the hill up to

about 15kph and drop the clutch. The car will now bump start.

Exact conditions for a successful bump start will vary slightly by car.

- Fixed an issue where at times some AI drivers in a race would use much higher skill levels than the rest of the field.

- Fixed an issue that prevented the AI from pitting within the final 3 laps of a race

- Further tweaked the AI ability in wet races to more closely match the player car’s ability in the wet

- Improved the AI’s efficiency in pit timing when needing to change tyres due to weather conditions.

Pitting, tuning, setups

- Fixed an issue where flat tyres were fitted to the car during a pit stop, by ensuring that the tyres are correctly inflated.

- Fixed an issue where the car’s bump-stop value decreased after leaving a race session and joining it again.

- Reworked the brake bias display information so that changing the values is more intuitive.

Tracks

- Performance optimisation pass done on: Brands Hatch layouts, Cadwell layouts, Oulton Park layouts, Bathurst, Azure circuit, and Zolder.

- Track cutting tolerances reduced on all tracks where it was too forgiving.

- Fixed an issue where a pit crew character would at times appear floating above the race track on various tracks.

- Spa Francorchamps: fixed an issue where cars under AI control would bump into the pit wall when exiting

 the pit lane. Fixed an issue where the AI were running too wide over the exit curb at the Bus Stop Chicane.

- Brno: fixed an issue where cars would at times start in the same grid positions,

 fixed garage six to prevent the AI from getting stuck on the right side wall when exiting the garage spot,

fixed an issue when running more than 20 cars in a race would cause the car in 21st to slide into the pits.

-  Le Mans: fixed an issue that would at times cause the car to crash while in the pit lane, leading to a disqualification.

Improved the AI race line for better speed, and improved the AI behaviour on curbs.

- Laguna Seca: improved the AI performance as they were running too slow in some sections.

- Imola: Improved the pit lane AI navigation, and fixed an issue with a section of the fence at the pit entrance that appear to float.

Some change for the slick heating and inflation pressure sensitivity of the carcass.

- McLaren MP4 12C: adjusted the default setup to match the change to stiffer tyres.

- McLaren P1: stiffened up the default suspension to help prevent bottoming out at tracks like Nordschliefe. Changed tyre walls to Pirelli (licensing).

- McLaren F1 GTR: added suspension animations to limit front wheel movement in order to stop them clipping through the bodywork on large compressions.

- Pagani Huayra: corrected the default dry and wet tyres so that the correct tyre is selected when using 'Automatic by Weather'.

- Radical SR3 and SR8: reduced the backlight on the gear LCD in the cockpit to make it easier to read at night.
