The driver does not get better.

My B-Spec twit has 15,000 miles in the F1 car - and still screws up at the same places on the same tracks - everytime.
Mine has gotten better, which is why it was so shocking that he got identical times to those he got when he was at a lower level. I don't understand why...

A couple of improvements that I've noticed - he no longer rearends the other cars every time before passing them, and he no longer t-bones the walls every time.
Look again.

I have noticed the drivers behaviour does not change .

Go back to certain tracks and you will see he keeps screwing up.

Laguna Seca in the F1 car come to mind - many times spins out the corner before the pit entrance.

New York in the F1 and SLR - head first into the wall after the main straight.

Le Mans in the SLR - he fucks up royally the end of the Mulsanne.

After 15,000 miles and 200 laps you would think he would get Laguna correct.

I am of the opinion they made car/track racing line pairs - and never finished them all.

They then use an algoryth to determine how far off line he wanders.

The catch being that on some tracks "off line" puts the outside rear wheel in the dirt so you are one spin away from oblivion..

This game has no AI.

None.
