F1 Laps Data
Your old difficulty level won't mean the same thing in F1 23. The AI runs at a different pace from game to game, so a level you were comfortable at might feel too easy or too hard now. Pick your old game and level below and you'll get the number to run, matched on lap-time pace.
At the same level, the F1 23 AI runs about 5 steps slower than in F1 22. So the level you ran before will feel easier now — nudge it up a touch to keep the same challenge.
The full reference table. Find your old level in the left column, then read across for what to run in F1 23. Levels are shown in steps of 5 by default.

These numbers are measured from players who race both games. We compare each player's pace against each game's own AI benchmark curves, meaning the AI's actual lap-time pace at every difficulty level and track. A change in car pace between the two games cancels out, and what's left is the difficulty shift. It refreshes as more data comes in.
