5Focus On Acclaim
4Power Is King
A powerful engine is key to success on the track. Having a high top speed gives opportunities on every track. Even if qualifying goes badly a powerful engine can provide chances of overtaking to carve through the field. It can also provide a great advantage on high-speed tracks with lots of straights. Picking the most powerful engine supplier at the beginning ofF1 22MyTeam is very important as it can give an early advantage over players' rivals. The manufacturer will also provide free upgrades throughout the season which can be greatly beneficial.
3Choosing A 2nd Driver
Choosing which driver to sign for the team can seem daunting at first, but it is not as important as it first seems. It largely depends on which starting option is picked. For players that start on Newcomer then it’s best to focus on the engine and then sign an F2 driver. This is because it is usually best to sign a better driver once the money starts rolling in as increasing driver stats takes time.
On Midfield Challenger and Championship Contender, it is a bit different as teams start with more money. In these cases, players have more flexibility with drivers after picking the best engine. Try to sign a young driver with high stats as they will improve faster than their older counterparts.
2Driver Contracts And Perks
It is also very important to plan ahead with drivers and keep an eye on when their contract expires. The game doesn’t make it obvious when this is, but it can be found under the corporate tab. If this is neglected then players can get stuck with a low-rated or replacement driver,a common mistake. This can happen if the team doesn’t have enough money to give them a new contract or sign a new driver when the existing contract expires.
