Number 33

[honorablefire]

Will number 33 be available at the start of career mode and in multiplayer since max is using number 1 now?

@honorablefire Going by the rules of F1 no. The number of a driver is reserved for him for i think 2 years after he either takes the number 1 or leaves the sport. Thats why Magnussens 20 was free for him anyway - nobody was allowed to take it

@Meza994 I thought exactly the same

[webtel1992]

No. 33 is not available for you can stripe Max's No. 1 off him by beating him which reverted to Max's traditional No. 33 in career mode and my team mode

Not IRL but maybe in the game.    I'm hoping #9 will be free as you-know-who isn't racing this year.

if we have to follow the exact f1 rules no until f1 2024 (if max remain wc ofc)

@guyb99 It won’t as the number is reserved for 2 years after the driver leaves in the event they return.

Imagine a future where that was a possibility.

A team would have to be more desperate than * for budget, or the ante will have to be upped to make it viable but I still think even post the current situation it's going to be a negative for many, many years. A Russian car manufacturer would have to enter probably but that would be a political mashed potato for the FIA.
