This is fantastic!!! The cockpit perspective feels fresh, and with telemetry taken away it's actually even more exciting. And, not that I take pleasure in your mistakes, but I think the fact that you made some mistakes in this race means the pro season mode has somehow re-adjusted the game's level of difficulty to match your skills--hence more unpredictable races. Overall great video. Thank you, Ben, for bringing this to us!
I freaking love this mode! The hiperrealism, the the frantic pace, the clutter-free environment, feels so natural. If you want my advice. Drop the live narration. Focus on your driving, in fact you don't even have to edit the videos, you don't even have to do the narration. That way it'll be easier for you. You're sitting in a pile of cash here. So much entertaining than the other format. You're the best f1 driver in RUclips imagine if you could transport the viewer into the position of an actual talented F1 driver.
omg the reaction when the podium came on have me crying irl so funny you were so excited as well, best vid i have seen in a while of f1 i actually watched all 25mins without skipping anything like i do in some other vids. GOOD JOB
Unmap the look back button, if you're going to do a pro season mode use your mirrors, and anyway there is no use for a look back button with the mirrors.
Ben, when you overtook a slow moving Bottas and a backmarker, you overtook them under yellow flags. At 19:13, when you're approaching turn 6, notice on the left, the board was flashing yellow and you overtook them. It was a matter of seconds before the next board you saw was flashing green, but you had already overtaken Bottas (who was going that slow cos he himself couldn't overtake the backmarker). All is fair and square.
You don't need the HUD to know which position you're in. On the steering wheel it tells you which position (top right of the little screen, top left is the time that you're behind the car ahead of you)
there is a lap time delta on the top of your steering wheel, and that is based on your last lap compared to your fastest lap, once you get used to it, its a really good way of telling how fast or slow you are, and also its good to gage when you should pit
The pro season thing makes me remember the expert mode on Colin Mcrae Rally 04 - forced cockpit view, full damages, limited HUD and such. Winning the game on this mode allows you to get a code to be posted on the web, by the way. If only this game also does that...
Ben can you please spend some time editing in your position, what lap we are on, etc? This season is going to be hard to follow. I gotta say, I miss some of the epic music you've used in the past as well. Thanks for going back to 100% racing and let's win a championship
Contructive feedback: The replays weren't there at its usual quality. I'm sure there's a reason to that but I thought I might as well give it a mention. Would like to have seen how some of the leaders crashed.
@19:13 you pass Mehri/Stevens but also Bottas I think while there was a yellow flag. That's why you got that 5 second penalty. And just after you passed those 2 the green flag went up
Awesome. Not only was it an entertaining video, and very different from the usual, but you finally got a penalty for corner cutting. Cool. Learn to not divebomb other guys though, and no, I'm not talking about the one on Kimi.
I think that penalty was for overtaking under yellow flag much earlier. I don't know much about pro season mode but in real life you get a penalty several laps after an incident.
In terms of straight line speed, the Toro Rosso is better... However, unless you feel a lot of understeer, you can run 1-1 wings all the time and the setup should benefit straight line speed...
I haven't figured it all out yet...but it seems to me in Pro Mode, the stewards are not shall we say as tolerant with the penalties...they seem to be much more strict than in the other modes
0:47 "relying on your race engineer"
I can see this career mode going down hill lmao
+patrik streng bahahaha
Pray for Ben
+Tiametmarduk hey ben is this season 3?
+Husni Muhammad Saeed Partially, but it is not career mode it is Pro Season mode
+Jonathan Smith ok thxs bro
1st Row: All German
2nd Row: All Finnish
3rd Row: All Australian (If wanting to play as yourself and not Kvyat)
WHAT A RACEEEEE!!!!! THE PENALTY WAS NOT FAIR! YOU WON THE RACE BY ME! THAT WAS AN ABSOLUTE STUNNAH!!!
+tomas romanidis Spoilers much?
+tomas romanidis He cut off bottas.. he deserved the penalty
+krampus_ He got a penalty for overtaking on yellow flags, not the collision with Bottas, which wasn't worth a penalty at all
Danny Wright It was worth a penalty because he didn't leave him enough room, anyway he deserved the penalties.
+tomas romanidis look at 19:12
that's why he got the penalty
Awesome to see someone at last tackling Pro mode on RUclips... Get in ! Almost makes me feel like logging a few hours in F1 2015 since I bought it...

Did you saw the qualy result. German Front Row- Finnish Second Row- Aussie Third row

This was the best video i've seen since ages! This should be a tv series!
omg the reaction when the podium came on have me crying irl so funny you were so excited as well, best vid i have seen in a while of f1 i actually watched all 25mins without skipping anything like i do in some other vids. GOOD JOB
You cut infront of bottas, that was your fault. you keep doing this.
You drive then!
ScottishBricks Not insulting him i think he's got great pace but just pointing out that that was his fault because he blamed bottas.
+krampus_ He is allways way way too aggressive in this situations and some others...he has nice pace but he is too aggressive...
Horse Shit Studio Very true
+krampus_ That's what I gathered the pen was for.
THANKYOU so much for starting a pro season mode I've been waiting so long to watch a season of it 😃😃😃
the penalty was probably from overtaking the Williams who was avoiding the manor.
Best and most intense F1 game episode of all time.
Great episode Ben!!
keep up the good work mate!!!
You could do this. If you retired then start the next race in the same video
On of the coolest videos you made Ben! Very very nice. Keep doing it!
The excitement of this new series!! Brilliant work Ben! Keep em' new episodes coming.. :)
Miles better to watch in that view.
+Philip Storey I hate the Cockpit View! 😂 😂
Kevvi You're not the only one mate
There was a yellow when the mannor was going slowly, and you passed bottas who was behind the mannor in that yellow flag zone... was a legit penalty
+Dan Cilliers fair enough xD
this is starting to be an awesome series
Ah man already over 8,5 years since this video. Pro Season Mode should come back in future F1 games
you still crossed the line first. in my books you won! great job. I loved it.
that was absolute chaos, the situation changed continuously, very entertaining to watch, loved it! This is going to be a great season!
"The two leaders" ~Tiametmarduk, 2016
Absolutely loved that episode! Going to be a stunner season for sure, keep it up mate!
I was waiting for this soooo long

This Pro Season Mode series is really interesting to watch, keep it up! :D
Love this season format. Looking forward the who next race. Good work.
Look at the models of the heads between 2015 and 16' on the grid presentation. Huge jump in quality
You don't need the HUD to know which position you're in. On the steering wheel it tells you which position (top right of the little screen, top left is the time that you're behind the car ahead of you)
I can't hear the words "Into the pits..." anyone without immediately thinking "...WE MUST GO! E I E I E I O!"
Haha yeah same xD
Youre awesome ben. No disapointments at all. Youre the best!
so stoked for this season, Ben! keep up the good work :)
before I watch this I just wanna say, RIP Tiametmarduk cos this is gonna be the hardest career (pro season) that he's ever done

Love the longer videos Ben; wish they were longer though... But a great vid as always mate!
The thumbnail is awesome! :)
You are the best f1 driver ever congrats on 100,000
What a race, mate!!! Looking forward to the next episode!!
Love this series, looking forward to the next upload.
Great video Ben! Keep up the pro season mode videos.
I really like you're doing pro season! I'm really looking forward to this series! Amazing race btw, in my book you've won this race ;)
This was such a great race. real suspense! great job mate!
Maybe you could do 2 part weekends? Then you could do practice and qualifying in episode 1 and race in episode 2.
These videos are so enjoyable =) Keep up the good work!
Ben can you please spend some time editing in your position, what lap we are on, etc? This season is going to be hard to follow. I gotta say, I miss some of the epic music you've used in the past as well. Thanks for going back to 100% racing and let's win a championship
I predict HRT cucumber challenge
+GamerForce/NuketownLA HRT Aren't in Formula 1 anymore.
+DaROBLOXChannel Lol
seana carroll
How is that funny?
Lobster challenge
+DaROBLOXChannel because they where a terrible team
I laught so hard at the start of the race😂😂 your starts was like max' start last 3 races😂
Great man, keep up with this series
THAT IS BIG! Awesome Pro Season mode by you!!! Can´t wait for next race! :)
this is way better than a 2017 career mode ! want it more
The old Career Mode Videos are better!
YEAAAAHHHH FINALLY !!!!! Thanks ben, Such a great job.
Contructive feedback: The replays weren't there at its usual quality. I'm sure there's a reason to that but I thought I might as well give it a mention. Would like to have seen how some of the leaders crashed.
Penalty was in 19:19
for overtake williams in yellow flags
This is good, already looking forward to the next race!
@19:13 you pass Mehri/Stevens but also Bottas I think while there was a yellow flag. That's why you got that 5 second penalty. And just after you passed those 2 the green flag went up
Best race yet. Going to be interesting how some of these races develop!
This was absolutely amazing! Fantastic race! I would surely like to see the rest of the season!
At the beginning you didn't give the lotus enough space since he was just ahead, you need to give some track room
Excited for this series! The end of this Australian GP was looking like something Aarava would script :) Good luck.
Quality start Ben!!!.... What a race!!!
I ENYOEDD THIS ONE SOOOOO MUCH MORE THAN NORMAL ONES
SHOW US THE RACE DIRECTOR PENALTIES. It's so important to check come on Ben!
Never has Kimi been seen so happy lol
You need to do a Manor season since next year there gonna have Mercedes engines and Williams gearbox and rear suspension
Typical Melbourne always raining
Awesome. Not only was it an entertaining video, and very different from the usual, but you finally got a penalty for corner cutting. Cool. Learn to not divebomb other guys though, and no, I'm not talking about the one on Kimi.
Why don't you show your qualifying laps??
+Rick - I didn't talk at all through them haha #SweatMode
+Tiametmarduk You could show your best lap in Q3 with no com just to enjoy your driving :P
+Tiametmarduk Or you could do quali in post com and race in live com :)
because he doesnt want us seeing him cut corners ;)
Rick because he corner cuts
The overtaking penalty was correct though. It's for overtaking the williams car that was stuck behind the manor I believe.
12:16 that’s exactly what Kvyat did in the 2019 grand prix, but he went way too wide
I think the penalty it's for the overtake on Bottas when the Manoer was going slowly
(If you didnt notice) the wheel tells you what position you are in and what is the gap to the car ahead.
Cucumber is coming back
It tells you your position in the top right of the display on the steering wheel
i cant stop smiling right now
love that Mercedes-less Podium
I love the camera view please keep it like that.
I think that penalty was for overtaking under yellow flag much earlier. I don't know much about pro season mode but in real life you get a penalty several laps after an incident.
a lot more interesting career than this years championship in f1 in real life
Right hand side on the wheel tells you your position
"THAT CAME OUT OF NOWHERE MATE"
I was hoping for Hulkenberg pro season
Just realized that you got more subscribers than the official Formula 1 YT channel. GG.
20 minutes. You turned in on him, he was always on the inside
In terms of straight line speed, the Toro Rosso is better... However, unless you feel a lot of understeer, you can run 1-1 wings all the time and the setup should benefit straight line speed...
What a brilliant finish. It was a shame to not get the win!
Ben is hinting at something cheeky! I really can't wait for the cheeky new 'Career'. It will be a hopefuly be a great season!
After a couple of updates, Rosberg is now #AbsoluteBlessed in Mercedes
Welcome to the start of the *Ben in the background* ohhhhh
Last corners I was like "remember de penalty, shut up and go faster!" Such a shame, it would be a good race win.
THAT CAME OUTTA NOWHERE
You can ask your engineer for a race overview, he'll tell you the lap count
I haven't figured it all out yet...but it seems to me in Pro Mode, the stewards are not shall we say as tolerant with the penalties...they seem to be much more strict than in the other modes
I think the penalty was for overtaking Bottas when he went slow behind the Manor. Not sure though!
more action in these races than in 2020
ask your engineer for a full race update I think you will get the lap count then. you could also use the steering wheel for your laptime.
You can see which position you are on the steering wheel
