In the early stages of the 2025 F1 season, Red Bull has made a significant change by demoting driver Liam Lawson in favor of Yuki Tsunoda after just two races. This move underscores the pressures and challenges of being teammates with Max Verstappen, where performance disparities can lead to such swift decisions. The developers of the F1 25 game have taken notice of this dynamic and aim to accurately simulate the different performance levels of drivers even in identical cars, factoring in aspects like confidence under various race conditions.
"We use confidence under braking, confidence on the throttle, confidence in close proximity to another car. They're more likely to make an overtake because they’re comfortable doing so."
"You can have two drivers both driving exactly the same car, but maybe one of them's got less confidence under braking, and you would see that they're not as effective as the other driver."
