[p]Hey racers, 
[/p][p]We hope you're enjoying your time with F1® 25 following the game’s launch at the end of May. Since then, we've seen so many of you jump into your favourite single-player modes, race online, and spend time crafting some truly impressive liveries with the new Decal Editor. We're loving what we're seeing so far, and it looks like you are too.
[/p][p]All the while, the team has been hard at work squashing bugs and investigating issues you've taken the time to report. In case you missed it, the first patch (v1.03) dropped on June 9 and we have our next patch (v1.04) lined up for June 23. The full patch notes will be shared on June 20 at 3pm UTC.
[/p][p]And we're not stopping there. Between patches, you can track some of the bugs and issues being worked on in the Community-Raised Issues thread with several updates every week.
[/p][p]One area the team has focused a lot of attention on for F1® 25 is the single-player racing experience. It’s been great to see videos of the intense battles you’ve been having with the AI across each of the 24 circuits in the game and clearly the work the team put in is paying off. 
[/p][p]With over 100 difficulty options and each AI competitor equipped with unique driving characteristics that require split-second calculations, any adjustments to how these drivers race needs extensive testing. That said, the team is digesting all of the comments and feedback you have about your experience racing alongside computer-controlled opponents to see if and what can be done to make this even better, whilst ensuring any updates enhance the experience for the entire F1® 25 community. This may take some time but we’ll be sure to update you along the way.
[/p][p]Right now though, one thing the team have made adjustments to based on your feedback is how AI drivers perform on race starts, as they were at times a little slow getting off the line. That change will be made alongside the upcoming v1.04 patch, so make sure your reaction times are sharpened!
[/p][p]If you have any feedback you’d like to share on single-player racing behaviours, or anything else for that matter, videos with added context go a long way. As always, the best place for these is on the EA Forums, as this ensures the feedback shared will make its way back to the team.
[/p][p]Thanks so much for your continued support and feedback on F1® 25 so far. Be sure to keep it coming and stay tuned to our social channels and the Community-Raised Issues thread for all the latest updates.
[/p][p]Happy racing!
