Brief summary of season 1 of your F1 2017 career mode, driving for McLaren-Honda: 11th in the championship with a total of 40 points Race winners Australia - Räikkönen China - Räikkönen Bahrain - Räikkönen Russia - Räikkönen Spain - Räikkönen Monaco - Räikkönen Canada - Vettel Azerbaijan - Hamilton Austria - Räikkönen Britain - Bottas Hungary - Räikkönen Belgium - Bottas Italy - Hamilton Singapore - Bottas Malaysia - Verstappen Japan - Hamilton USA - Vettel Mexico - Bottas Brazil - Vettel Abu Dhabi - Vettel CHAMPION: Räikkönen
The thing is Benjy would have been hella lot faster if not for the shitty game being bugged to fuck. He was racing stock car till the end of the season.
I've been watching the career modes for a few years now and you almost always get bad starts because your full throttle in first gear! You need to be easy with the throttle.
1:34 ish. "I'm going to take a break". Nooooo. I loved this first season and the Daly (haha) uploads. Oh well, I guess it is better for season 2 and Ben said it as well. Looking forward to it already and I still have this episode to watch. Edit: thank you Ben for sticking with your first team unlike some others cough Aarav cough
well I think aarav did it because it would start to be really awkward when the Torro Rosso team started to do better than the Red Bull team so I understand why he did that
Hey Tiametmarduk, you will love this little message from the update page: " We've also added these on 08/09/2017: · McLaren's Engine Power upgrades will now have an effect on the car when bought and applied. · Spec and Multi-Class Races with Classic cars in Grand Prix now work properly. · The player's Team Mate at the start of a career will now always be the one they have chosen" And yeah it just came out.........just finished the Download a minute ago. Also got this: "· Added Polish subtitles" Repeat Please! ;) :D
The patch has just come out! And it fixes the McLaren Honda engines glitch in Career Mode. So I expect you to upload Season 2 - Episode 1 in no time. Cheers Ben! Love this series.
This F1 1st season has been really amusing and interesting to watch,thank you for your continous uploading of such a great content(yeah,i didn,'t see the video yet)
Ben, I've got a challenge for you. Suzuka Short, 100% distance, multi class classic race, you in a non dominant C1 car (McLaren MP4-23, Ferrari F2007, Renault R26) and the challenge will be getting round the lapped traffic and seeing if it can play to your advantage.
As well as the new update being out and McLaren upgrades being fixed, the AI qualifying pace has been adjusted so that it is more in line with their race pace. :) should've been sorted from the beginning but at least it's out now :P
They removed the ability to focus on the next season which was in F1 2016. I was sure they'd develop it even more not axe it, I really liked it, it added depth and allowed you to be tactical in the development race against other teams. Hope they patch even a simple '16 style system in.
Just think of how much you have achieved without the updates actually taking effect. You've judged weather, tyres and strategy to perfection at times and all whilst thinking the components were taking effect. All in all I'd be pretty darn proud of your first season and it shows that the only way is up!
Michael Stewart I agree, he was really impressive I'm only on 95% AI maybe 100% if it's a track I'm good at driving the Renault and at one point Ben was on 110% in a Mclaren getting points, that's crazy.
They have done it mate: We've also added these on 08/09/2017: · McLaren's Engine Power upgrades will now have an effect on the car when bought and applied. · Spec and Multi-Class Races with Classic cars in Grand Prix now work properly. · The player's Team Mate at the start of a career will now always be the one they have chosen
Great series, the first F1 game I've watched and really enjoyed it. Fantastic achievement given the bug issues. Looking forward to what S2 brings with actual power upgrades!
Just an FYI - love the series and prompted me to purchase the game too! Patch 1.6 notes updated: · McLaren's Engine Power upgrades will now have an effect on the car when bought and applied.
MASSIVE NEWS!!! This is what I found in the PC version's patch notes: We've also added these on 08/09/2017: · McLaren's Engine Power upgrades will now have an effect on the car when bought and applied.
My second season in career mode went a little like this: Race winners: Australia - Me China - Me Bahrain - Me Russia - Me Spain - Me Monaco - Me Canada - Me Baku - Me Austria - Me Briatain - Hamilton Hungary - Vettel (my teammate) Spa - Me Italy - Me Singapore - Magnussen (my former teammate) Malaysia - Me Japan - Vettel USA - Me Mexico - Me (made me championship winner) Brazil - Verstappen Abu Dhabi - Me And that was my 2nd season of career mode on 70 difficulty and no assists :)
I'm doing a Renault career, that car is serious fun to drive, I've had 2 podiums in the first 8 rds. Gearbox issues are annoying haha More upgrades will sort that out. This game is great.
ben and his honda engine the ultimate examplet of the placebo effect ! great career mode tho hope they fix the bug soon also great driving during the season not your smack into sainz tho XD
Final episode? noway mate!(I know you're kidding!) I love watching your gameplay! Keep racing, keep upload new video mate, it's very nice! By the way, will you provide more setup guide for each track? I think most of the player need some more setup suggestion for different tracks, as I saw in the forum your setup guide of Aus GP has been used by lots of the players, and I'm using it as well in my Williams! Keep going and I'm supporting you here in Hong Kong Ben!
Am I the only one that has noticed that the AI are stupidly overpowered in changable contitions? I was at Hungary and the weather had turned from dry to light rain. I switched to the inters while the AI stayed on drys in wet weather and were almost as fast as in normal dry conditions. Like if this has happened to you too
My main issue with the r&d system is that only some of the teams have the ability to reach max potential. As eventually once every team is upgraded fully the grid will be basically exactly the same as in season 1. I was hoping that this would have been changed for this years game but unfortunately it hasnt. That is my only issue with this years game.
Do you never consider to put some medium tyres on if you have to do 20+ laps because tyre wear is calculated on the selected % of race you chosed With ultra it's something like 20% of the race, super 30%, soft 40% and medium 50 to 60% that means that you have enough with a ultra and medium tyre ( maybe )
ben as of today mclaren bug has been fixed by codemasters check version 1.6 changelog it says this "· McLaren's Engine Power upgrades will now have an effect on the car when bought and applied."

WRL Schumacher Driver of the day, Max verstappen!
WRL Schumacher your dedicated to be writing that much
The thing is Benjy would have been hella lot faster if not for the shitty game being bugged to fuck. He was racing stock car till the end of the season.
WRL Schumacher I
WRL Schumacher Hamilton won less races than his new teammate Bottas. Wow F1 2017 is soo Finland friendly!
"we will stay with mclaren until we win the championship"- i guess this series will continue when f1 2018 comes out
More like f1 2025 lok
Lol*
Krash Third season for sure!
I've been watching the career modes for a few years now and you almost always get bad starts because your full throttle in first gear! You need to be easy with the throttle.
Please upvote this so he sees this! you must keep the revs low for maximum traction!
its ok to run rich revs but at the start he needs to go a bit lighter with the throttle and than go max power
2017 stresses this more. The best starts come when the revs are just low enough that none of the lights on the wheel illuminate.
either no lights or only green lights but it is also about timing when u go full throttle
Hes reaction was just really slow too
Hard luck on the constructors there, you were so close to winning it!
Dantskii you stupid
Luuppi 123 You miss the joke
Luuppi 123 Bet your fun at party's
Bants
@@jojoman23 it is a joke.
1:34 ish. "I'm going to take a break". Nooooo. I loved this first season and the Daly (haha) uploads. Oh well, I guess it is better for season 2 and Ben said it as well. Looking forward to it already and I still have this episode to watch. Edit: thank you Ben for sticking with your first team unlike some others cough Aarav cough
Rabiya Hamza aarav wasnt doing a RTG
he can start right away, it's fixed on PC now
well I think aarav did it because it would start to be really awkward when the Torro Rosso team started to do better than the Red Bull team so I understand why he did that
He already knows, 'someone' told him on twitter as the patch went live an hour or so before the episode went live. ;^)
Rabiya Hamza You can't go back to the B-team for another year in a career mode
"we can still we the constructors championship" jeff 2017

Patch 1.6 is out they fixed the McLaren bug with the engines

YES!
I was booting up the game and then I got the update and I'm so glad cos I'm also doing a Mclaren RTG
Cyreal Reeper ah ok
how come I haven't got the 1.6 update?Is it because iam playing in Xbox one?
*Vettel overtakes him on the cooldown lap*
Ben: "Imma stick with McLaren!"
This F1 1st season has been really amusing and interesting to watch,thank you for your continous uploading of such a great content(yeah,i didn,'t see the video yet)
When you win the championship you should join williams just so you can experience what it is like to have supreme top speed for a season.
Really appreciate it Ben! I honestly enjoy watching you race and I am looking forward to more.
keep uploading season 2 of your f1 career mode everyday mate. i never skip a single episode every damn day. Love from Indonesia!!
Ben, I've got a challenge for you. Suzuka Short, 100% distance, multi class classic race, you in a non dominant C1 car (McLaren MP4-23, Ferrari F2007, Renault R26) and the challenge will be getting round the lapped traffic and seeing if it can play to your advantage.
If you want proof how much F1 2017 has improved, Ben would've got at least a podium in anyother Codies f1 Game by now
Been waiting for this all day!
Calster Games Ben waiting*, you get the joke(Ben)
Thank you ben for back to back episodes really loving them, can't wait for season 2

the update with the mclaren bug fixed today
Just think of how much you have achieved without the updates actually taking effect. You've judged weather, tyres and strategy to perfection at times and all whilst thinking the components were taking effect.
All in all I'd be pretty darn proud of your first season and it shows that the only way is up!

You have no idea how much I want to see Season 2 :D Can't wait, hope you dont make a long break
They have done it mate:
We've also added these on 08/09/2017:

Great series, the first F1 game I've watched and really enjoyed it. Fantastic achievement given the bug issues. Looking forward to what S2 brings with actual power upgrades!
No!!!!!! I'm gonna miss the daily update of F1. I'm just new to your channel and it's fantastic channel. Keep up the good work
I genuinely love your videos and I look forward to them every day
3:34 Jeff's been smoking those funny cigarettes again lol
Just an FYI - love the series and prompted me to purchase the game too!
Patch 1.6 notes updated:
· McLaren's Engine Power upgrades will now have an effect on the car when bought and applied.
When Jeff said that there is still a possibility to win the constructors championship, Alonso came in my mind with " I love your sense of humor" . XD
0:34 "I can't believe I made it" , you think you would die?
Just kidding, Nice vids every day!
Wtf1 -> boxing verstappen
Honda -> boxing the car because of engine problems
Great vid Ben!
Well done on a really entertaining Season 1! Cant wait to see how these upgrades effect the McLaren performance for season 2!
Thanks for the consistent uploads man
Ben deserves 54 mill subs
Been watchin since the start. Cant wait for season 2!!! Keep it up!
Died of laughter when geoff said "we have a real chance of winning the constructors" what was he on!!?
MASSIVE NEWS!!! This is what I found in the PC version's patch notes:
We've also added these on 08/09/2017:
· McLaren's Engine Power upgrades will now have an effect on the car when bought and applied.
Codemaster: "Don't spend your resource points on engine upgrades until the bug is fixed"
Tiametmarduk: "Hold my beer"
keep uploading !!
i love waking up every morning in America and watching them
What would be the top speed of honda when it's powertrain is full upgraded?
wait, so the upgrades you already did r gonna work after the update right???
Stelaras 15 i really hope so
Ben's gonna instantly gain 3 seconds a lap haha
wait? look at 11:17. his front wing is still damaged from the contact with the sauber car. after pitting for a new front wing.
Loved the first season ! Keep up the great work man !
3:37 Oh look! It's the host of the Shift+F1 podcast about speedy racecars! XD
Watching you play F1 2017 is better than watching F1 in 2017.
Season 1: Awesome driving by you. :)
Im exited for Season 2 :)
Please keep up the streak of the series for being daily
Can't wait for xMattyg to finally start his Career Mode. 🤗 Ive been waiting for ages.
This series is growing on me keep it up
My second season in career mode went a little like this:
Race winners:
Australia - Me
China - Me
Bahrain - Me
Russia - Me
Spain - Me
Monaco - Me
Canada - Me
Baku - Me
Austria - Me
Briatain - Hamilton
Hungary - Vettel (my teammate)
Spa - Me
Italy - Me
Singapore - Magnussen (my former teammate)
Malaysia - Me
Japan - Vettel
USA - Me
Mexico - Me (made me championship winner)
Brazil - Verstappen
Abu Dhabi - Me
And that was my 2nd season of career mode on 70 difficulty and no assists :)
You can hear in your voice how done you are with this season. Hopefully you can get back to enjoying it
There was a car on the side of the track. You can see the wheel at 6:35 and also on the radar beforehand.
the updates live so i hope its only like 2 days without career mode
I'm doing a Renault career, that car is serious fun to drive, I've had 2 podiums in the first 8 rds.
Gearbox issues are annoying haha More upgrades will sort that out.
This game is great.
Ben will we see a season 2 video tomorrow since the mclaren bug is fixed ?
Update is out on PC .
3:34 he was drunk
I love having 1 video every day... keep up
A whole season in just 2 weeks...nice One Ben
This race is the only race of the season without a retirement
he should go for the last engine upgrade in that line. 1500 recource points is much but the performance you get out of it is just massive.
3:35 Jeff's best audio ever!! C'mon guys, we still have a chance
That first yellow was because there was a car parked on the right hand side of the track lmao
I'd say running 11 in the driver standings on an almost entirely stock mclaren is still pretty impressive
Its been a great season mate
3:33 I laughed so hard, omg 😂😂😂
Congrats 250k subs
ben and his honda engine the ultimate examplet of the placebo effect ! great career mode tho hope they fix the bug soon also great driving during the season not your smack into sainz tho XD
It was so good see you play with mclaren in this season keep going with the great work
According to the forums and my steam, Codemasters updated patch 1.6 with a fix for the mclaren engine upgrades today.
Your videos and commentary were really Interesting :) Good Work !!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO A FEW DAY BREAK
nothing to make me smile for the next few day
Final episode? noway mate!(I know you're kidding!) I love watching your gameplay! Keep racing, keep upload new video mate, it's very nice!
By the way, will you provide more setup guide for each track? I think most of the player need some more setup suggestion for different tracks, as I saw in the forum your setup guide of Aus GP has been used by lots of the players, and I'm using it as well in my Williams!

I switched to the inters while the AI stayed on drys in wet weather and were almost as fast as in normal dry conditions. Like if this has happened to you too
Condamn it wasn't wet enough obv
Condamn You're messing something. I'm very deep into F1 and I'm telling you that the AI is fantastic this year in changable conditions
3:33-3:37 What Is Jeff Talking About?!😂😂😂
Lmfao when Jeff said they still have a chance to win constructors
We've also added these on 08/09/2017:
· McLaren's Engine Power upgrades will now have an effect on the car when bought and applied.
"Accidentally" pushed the flashback button 😂
how do u have the numbers on the signs in the grid before the start of the race??? cause they're not there in my game, just the names show
19:33 yep, we know you. We know you like to refuse top teams' offers...
Patch is out on PC mate, check the changelog ! McLaren is fixed
The best is Vettel and Kimi didn't even pull into the pits after their "cool down" lap
My main issue with the r&d system is that only some of the teams have the ability to reach max potential. As eventually once every team is upgraded fully the grid will be basically exactly the same as in season 1. I was hoping that this would have been changed for this years game but unfortunately it hasnt. That is my only issue with this years game.
The local yellow at 6:22 was for a car that was parkt on the right, it was Verstappen.
The AI is like Max Verstappen: always unnecessarily bumping into other cars.
Well, Jeff is completely hammered
Do you never consider to put some medium tyres on if you have to do 20+ laps because tyre wear is calculated on the selected % of race you chosed
With ultra it's something like 20% of the race, super 30%, soft 40% and medium 50 to 60% that means that you have enough with a ultra and medium tyre ( maybe )
Can anyone tell me the name of the soundtrack on 7:03
ben as of today mclaren bug has been fixed by codemasters check version 1.6 changelog it says this "· McLaren's Engine Power upgrades will now have an effect on the car when bought and applied."
6:25 local yellow due to a car offtrack (looks like a RedBull, possibly Verstappen)
Can't wait for season 2 🤘
Isn't it 20?
Rehaans Car Info No because in azerbijan he retired on lap 5 and then did austria in the same episode
I had to go check that, then I read this comment GG
good question
Rehaans Car Info he done 2 races in one video
Rehaans Car Info Baku and Austria were in the same video
19:35 well this will take some time HAHAHAHH XD I cant breathe xD
10:50 Cash him up the outside?
you should wait for the update before you start season 2
