:sly: I had a little spending cash and the Ferrari F1 cars looked nice. I thought I was going to be able to use it in the normal Formula One races. I tried, but I was told it can only be used in some One Make race. Where's that at?:crazy: Does it come at a certain level or did I fail to look wherever it's at. Thanks.
 
I used the Formula Gran Turismo in the championships and races that have no limitations, does the Ferrari F1 car not fit into the same category as the FGT??

No. Ferrari's liscencing contract with Polyphony says that the Ferrari F1 cars cannot be driven with anything else except for other Ferrari F1 cars.

There is no one make race offline, now that the seasonal is gone. But you can find a good Ferrari F1 room online. They are quite competitve races too.

Another fun thing to do is to tune your car for hot laps on your favorite track (I use Spa). It fun and challenging.

Also take some good photos of it and post them on GTPlanet. Ferrari Formulas are beautiful.
 
Check the Seasonals if there is one, if not go online and find a room.

No Ferrari seasonall now. :grumpy::grumpy:

No it does,nt Officialy you cannot race it against any other vehicle, Unless you do the new glitch.

There was a Ferrari seasonal, but now it's gone.

This ^^^

You pretty much wated your money for now. Hopefully they will make another seasonal for them soon.:ouch:

And this^^^you really should have trade for a level 24 ticket.

Enjoy it though they are great.

There are offline a spec races, you go to practice mode then choose track then choose a spec one make race. You dont get any money for it but its good fun. Also just doing practice laps round spa, monza, monaco etc is great in the ferrari f1 cars
 
Go enjoy your amazing-sounding F10 on the Nurburgring. See how fast you can lap it. I'm about to buy one after I finish this Spa B-spec seasonal. Then do it 2 or 3 more times and buy the F2007 lol...Looks more fun than the X2011
 
Thanks all for such a quick answer. Maybe another Ferrari race will be put online sometime. I'll test it out, but I mainly wanted it for B-spec racing to see how well Bob would do with it. It's really not much of a waste of cash for me since all I have to do is keep winning the online Sarthe Seasonal B-spec race in the rain. That is so much fun for me and Bob. I've got the only car that can do all ten laps with just one pit stop. 3,000,000 cr x 2 each race, and I can't lose. I've been going on a wild spending spree.

If you use sports soft tires from the beginning you don't need to pit at all.
 
Thank you for the tip. I'll definitely try that. You guys really think outside the box. I remember I used to use harder tires to do the 200 Pt races in GT4, but that was hard. Maybe my Bob can do it but he's only at level 37. I'm definitely going to give it a try later. I just have to coax Bob to drive slow and steady. This is a terrific forum for getting help. 👍 :dopey:

You may not pass many people at the beginning of the race than if you were on racing hards, but if you should take first once everyone pits on lap 3. When the rain comes it also gives you an advantage.
The whole strategy is explained on the OP of this thread: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=237563

Slightly off-topic, but which F1 do you recommend I get 1st?

The F2007 has much more grip, but the F10 is faster on the straight. Its really about personal preference (I like the F2007), as they perform close to the same. Just trade for two level 24 tickets, so you can have both and decide which you like better. Or you can save a back up of your save game and then buy one of them and test it out in practice. Then quit the game, load the back up and buy and test the other car.

Or just create another account, send the ticket there, and you can send as many of them as you like back to your primary account or anywhere else, and just keep reloading your save. I won't mess with loading and reloading game saves on my primary account.
