Then what? And running in them won't win us GC, just M$. Yawn. No matter how you slice it, the need for GC continues (and grows) every release. Anything I do that doesn't produce GC is a waste of my time. Had I known better (or, ok, thought it through better) I would have bought and FU'd one F1 car. Run it through it's paces then stop. Anything past that is just more playing with myself. Can't run WTTT's or OMP with them (I feel sure predicting that; excuse will be, as always, "Licensing").

None lf us have any misconception that EA and its contents' users should have the same perspective. They're a business, with the sole purpose of generating profit. We are consumers and our main priority is expecting value for money/time spent on their offerings. The chasm between EA and its users continues to widen exponentially, with every passing update

Its obvious that EA's model to recoup licensing/developmental costs and then generate revenue in F1 is as follows - Introduce new currency and place cap on daily accumulation. Spew out piddly little 5 GPs with ONLY 5 tiers each. Entice players to collect min 5 cars and dangle what seems to be the most hyped/overrated carrot of free F1 safety car. Reason why its overrated - Even the Safety Car Career series is so short, its a serious abuse of player's expectations by EA. They refuse to seek the middle ground.

There's a very common saying: 'Icing on the cake'. Now, virtually all of new content being spewed out by FM at the behest of EA's deviance, is 5% cake with 95% regurgitated icing.

At the risk of sounding repetitive, I won't start another rant about the lack of elemental improvements/addition/changes to the game's ancient framework/features/graphics. Cause that old boogeyman excuse of 'legacy devices made redundant' is always lurking around the corner. EA makes it look like they might have to approach NASA or MIT to add a new feature to RR3 😄
