How to unlock the Safety first achievement in F1 2018 - Definitive Guide

For this achievement, you need race cleanly without penalties in order to obtain this rating.

The first thing you need to do is race your 5 placement races which will determine your starting position. The cleaner you race the higher the rank.

Once you have done this and say for example you have a rating of 'B' you will be given a percentage which will increase and decrease after each race depending on your performance. Your target for this is to get this percentage to 100%, after hitting 100% you need to complete 2 more clean races consecutively in order to receive the 'A' rating. Once you have this start up another race and it should pop before/after Qualifying.

This achievement is hard as you can be crashed into and still be penalised so I would advise if you are just going for this achievement stay at the back of the pack and be careful.

Penalties, such as a drive through for a false start will decrease your score significantly so try not to get any of these.

This one could be quite difficult so my advice is to take it slow as the longer you go without any crashes/penalties your rating will increase.

Good luck

3% raise for every clean race? Is this normal?

Yes. It goes up very slowly. Best way is to find someone else to race with and do 25% races. Not many people in the lobby and you get about 10-20% a race plus a lot of xp

I've given up with this achievement and the game has only been out a week. Too many people crash into you on purpose online and it's ridiculous. I've tried slowing down and staying to the back of the grid, but they still find a way to hit you.

It is extremely frustrating doing it in normal lobbies, myself and a friend done 25% races for this and ensured we were the only ones in the lobby

@Tatey, I'll try that out! Sadly, none of my friends have the game at the moment, so may have to have a scan around for some clean racers to help me out smile

Was getting an A made easier at some point? I had one corner-cutting warning, a wing-damaging wall collision, and one DNF across 5 races and got an A as my starting rating.

@Groudon, yes it seems much easier now.

On a related note I'm now up to S and the Achievement still hasn't unlocked.

Glitches. Reached Rank A but the acheiment did not pop up. Codemasters know of the issue but still hasn't been fixed.

Not sure what happened but as soon as I went in to the next race, the achievement popped up. Went from 25% to 5 lap and ping...

Should be added to the solution that it's glitchy, especially since so many people have reported it.
As for me, I've been A ranked for 24h now, achievement hasn't popped yet. Back to playing the waiting game I guess...

Can you pause and let the Ai drive for you in the initial 5 races to get a rank?

@Bqtista make sure you are in ranked matches, if you are not in ranked then you won't get a skill rating

@PJTierney

I've just unlocked this today. The way I obtained it was doing 25% races, then switched it down to 5 lap races when I needed two more clean races to do to get the achievement unlocked. It unlocked for me after the qualifying period on my last race.

Seems it's a Codemasters issue rather than an Xbox issue and will require a patch to get your achievement unlocked. I'm sure your not the only one with this problem.

Good luck.

Hi everyone, I just wanted to share a bit of information I discovered while working on this.

Just like with previous F1 titles, when you pause the game, the car will drive itself.
Cool thing is, at the end, your safety rating will still go up.
I went from 78% to 100% after 2 races.

Warning - Unlike previous F1 titles, your car won't be ghosted.

This is how I did mine on 25% multiplayer races. One tip on how you can see your progress is to go to Preferences -> Camera Options. Holding Y while in the Camera Options menu will hide the menu. If you are in Cockpit camera, you can see the laps on the steering wheel.

Thanks for this, 5 lap races is the quickest way and just let the AI steer!

I didn't use this for myself but it was nice to be able to use it for my dummy account so it could be on the same level as my main account so we could keep getting matched up.

To obtain this trophy you need to race 5 online ranked races for the game to determine your Safety Rating. To get a better safety rating you’ll need to race as clean as possible which means not to making contact with objects or other drivers and staying on the track. Corner cutting is heavily penalized in regards to this trophy as well. If you raced fairly clean in your first 5 races you will get a B-rating first. In the subsequent races you’ll need to keep driving as clean as possible to get your rating up. Unfortunately the game sometimes will penalize you when others hit you or when you drive into someone unavoidably because they crashed right in front of you. Although I don’t want to advocate quitting behaviour, if you feel like you’re going to lose a lot of points after a race because of unfair coding you can close the application and start the game up again and still have the same rating as before you started that race.

It's better to ride 25% of the race.

Dial quickly enough if you don't ram others. The main thing is caution. I got it around level 14. By the 15th it was already S. The position at the finish line is not as important as the length. Since the game notified “promotion after 3 races” I think 5 laps is optimal. But you still need to knock out level 25.
