HAT TRICK
Playing through a full season is the quickest way to unlock new wheels, decals, antennae, rocket trails and hats. The differences between these are cosmetic – though spraying money behind you can be a distraction – but that’s not the case with a new body. In a game where your connection with the ball is crucial, the difference in height and surface area can have a big effect. In a van, you might have the edge while jumping, but the sports car’s wider bonnet can afford you cleaner contact.
