F1 2019 Changes
A fair number of changes are on the way to F1 2019. This includes updated aerodynamics which should bring with them an overall performance improvement “of between 1-1.5 seconds per lap, mainly in higher cornering speed.” Car handling should be more realistic after the update, too. The AI for individual teams will be updated as to make them “more representative of their real-life counterparts.” That’s not all, either. The strengths and weaknesses of each car should be more realistically represented after the 1.05 update, too.
New Features
Alongside the changes listed above, F2 fans will be happy with the 1.05 update. You will be able to take part in Unranked Multiplayer and LAN games in F2 mode. On top of everything mentioned here and above, there are plenty of fixes included in this update, too.
Bug Fixes
There should be a decent number of bug fixes and gameplay adjustments within the 1.05 update. This will include a photo mode fix that’ll ensure that changing the shutter speed won’t make the screen go black anymore. The Rain/ERS charging lights should work on the PS4 Pro edition of F1 2019 after the update too. Read through the complete F1 2019 1.05 update patch notes below to find out everything that is being fixed, adjusted, and added.
