How to get the Showing Your Intentions Achievement/Trophy

To get the Showing Your Intentions achievement/trophy you need to finish ahead of Devon or Lukas in an F1 race. In the Feeder series of Career mode you will meet two rival characters called Devon Butler and Lukas Weber. All you need to do to unlock the achievement/trophy is finish ahead of one of them in a F1 race.

Hit the Apexes when Cornering

Making sure you hit the apexes when cornering while keeping the car stable at the same time through the bend is crucial if you want to win races. If you find your car is oversteering through the middle of the corner you will be able to regain some control of it by lifting off the throttle slightly and changing down a gear.

On some of the tracks in F1 2019 it is best to avoid the kerbs altogether to prevent unsettling the car and potentially spinning out of control and causing a crash.

How to get the Perfect Start

In order to get a fast getaway from the start line you need to find the optimum RPM, which will be around 10,700 to 11,500 before the lights go out to start the race. Once you have found the optimum RPM you need to maintain it and hit the gas as hard as possible to minimise excessive wheelspin the instant the race starts.

If you have too many revs the wheelspin will bog the car down while too few revs will cause your car to be sluggish off the start line. It is important to remember to hold in the clutch at the start otherwise you will stall the car.

How to get the Assisting Development Achievement/Trophy

To get the Assisting Development achievement/trophy you need to Complete an F1 practice program in Career mode. In order to do this you need to play Career mode and ensure that 'Practice Sessions' are activated in the loading menu before each race. Then once FP1 loads choose one of the programs listed below, when you pass it the achievement/trophy will become unlocked.

- Qualifying Pace
- Race Strategy
- Track Acclimatization
- Tire Management
- Fuel Management
- ERS Management

The easiest one of the bunch to complete is Tire Management where you simply have to achieve the target lap time.

How get the Raining Champion Achievement/Trophy

To get the Raining Champion achievement/trophy you must complete an F1 Time Trial in wet conditions. This is not difficult to do as long as you are careful and avoid cutting and exceeding the track limits, Time Trial is is very strict on both.

The easiest way do this is to select the Japan Short track and any car in Time Trial, and then while it is loading press the 'Start' button to bring up the 'Assists' and set the weather to 'Wet'. With these settings should be able to complete a lap in under 1 minute and unlock the achievement/trophy.
