How to unlock the Stitch in time achievement in F1 2021 - Definitive Guide

You can do this in any career mode, and is actually relatively easy to obtain.

Throughout your season, you will be upgrading and spending your R&D points, or if you set this to auto, it will be done for you.

Once you advance to the second to last or last race weekend from your HQ and reach the Workstation, an engineer (Charlie) will speak to you about regulation changes, and to make a selection on which you want to keep.

DO NOT ADVANCE TO PRACTICE, YET.

Toggle to the R&D tab, and then cn_A on Aerodynamics, Powertrain, Durability or Chasis. You will then be on a page where it prompts you to press cn_A to 'Accept'. Do so. You only need to do this once.

Your achievement will not unlock here, so do not worry that it hasn't.

Back out, and now you may head to practice, qualifying, and then complete your race.

Advance through until you are back in your HQ, do what you need to do (fill activities, get a sponser, ect), and then Advance time.

Your achievement will unlock once time has passed :)

great guide, thanks!

I might add, before the start of race weekend 9/10 I got the regs change notification (aero dpt) I had 7 parts at risk and the cost of adapting each was 200-500 on average. It popped right after accepting the investment (as adapting the part is also immediate).

"DO NOT ADVANCE TO PRACTICE, YET."

It is okay to advance through practice. I did not have enough points to adapt my parts at the start of race 9. Did three practice sessions and racked up 500 points, enough to adapt one of the parts and earn the achievement immediately.

This unlocked for me right after accepting the part protection on one part in the R&D screen.

"and is actually relatively easy to obtain."

You can say that again! I was double boxing the Two Player Career mode after I had finished up double boxing the multiplayer achievements and had R&D Management set to "Off" so that all the R&D stuff would be automated (I was renting the copy of F1 from my local library and I just wanted to get all the online stuff done as fast as possible). I got this achievement randomly after my seventh or eighth race as I was advancing towards my next on at my HQ. It was a pleasant surprise!
