F1 Clash - Official 2025 Game

This game has moments of being fun, BUT OMG its so unbalanced. The AI driving will make you insane! Ive watched my car in 3rd place leave pitlane and stop to let the entire field go by, then rejoin in last. Ive watched my drivers turn left in a right hand turn, drive through the grass and lose 6 places for no reason. OR just hit the brakes and come to a dead stop in the middle of turn. The AI needs lots of work…LOTS of work! Winning is arbitrary, because other than changing tires, you play no role in how your team performs. ALSO, it does NOT matter what driver you have or what upgrades you install, the game matches you with someone who has the same stuff…so whats the point. Also the cost of upgrades is on a vertical curve. $20k for level 1…$350k for level 2… and since we can be sure to always have 10 loses to 1 win, unless i spend real money, i cant upgrade. This game has great potential, but is far from ready. Teach the AI to drive. A driver doesnt make it to F1 with the skills of a weekend rental kart driver. Fix the match balance. Qualy is a joke. And make driver performance predictable, because otherwise its meaningless. (My driver will stay top 5 in one race then live in 24th for the next 5 races)

Overall the game play and concept is all good. Graphics are good but it lacks consistency when it comes to performance. Lacks consistency on matching up players with similar skill. Most of the time in my experience I get matched up vs people with way higher grades than me so makes it almost impossible to win. Maybe the matching system needs to be tweaked. I lowered my rating to 1 star. It’s a joke how inconsistent it is. I wrote my review and then decided to give the game another chance but more of the same stupidity of matchup and in race issues. I am on boost and take a turn and get passed by 3 cars lol. Doesn’t seem like the drivers ratings do anything when it comes to racing. My highest “consistency” drivers seem to have the least consistent race, taking turns way wide or letting 3 people pass me because I slowed down and took the outside of a turn. Seems like the driver did that just to let 3 cars behind me pass. Also when a car breaks down why not have the car get affected and slow down so it forces people to go into pits. You can literally drive laps of a broken car with no effect. Last thing is this game really does want you to purchase packs and things and you can only be competitive if you do. If you don’t you will be stuck with lower parts and drivers as the upgrades on parts and cars are ridiculously high. So if you want to play this game competitively be ready to spend money. The free daily spin rewards not worth spinning

I’ve been playing this game for about two years and have spent a few hundred to make it more enjoyable. It’s clear you HAVE to pay to win. You’d think the people behind the app would want to retain those that spend money. I’ve been ripped off by them twice now and there won’t be a third. First time was an app crash that messed up my purchase and I was still charged. Second time was with a pit pass… What they fail to make clear is that if you buy the pit pass Monday for the following week and event, it expires that night (same day) and you essentially paid for less than 24 hours of use. When you request a refund or them to just reissue it for that week, they say too bad so sad and go pound sand. Customer service is pathetic at best and very slimy. What does it really cost them to reactivate it for a user? ZERO! As I said, pathetic. Those don’t pay to play have reviews that they have zero shot at winning against those that pay. The game is rigged against you otherwise. Upgrades are useless, matchups are irrelevant. There is clearly some type of algo or rating system for users and it’ll be interesting if they ever get audited. I can see a class action suit in their future. I did give them one more star simply for the graphics. F1 looks terrible with what this developer is doing. Conceptually great, but seems like a scam. BEWARE AND PLEASE DON’T STUFF THEIR POCKETS AS THEY DO NOT DESERVE IT!
