tyre allocation

[D.Kyriakidis]

we need to change tyre for weekends especialy for the races.
for example i want 2 midium tyres for race to make strategy soft-medium-medium
but i cant do that.
let us pick 13 tyre we want like real f1 pls

[[KRL] alaric01 #WeAreKRL]

they cant in real life. They have the same amout of sets for every compound. Just if they save them im practice they can choose.

[D.Kyriakidis]

no men they can take 13 tyre and choose how meny midium and hard want
someone take one hard other take 2 hard and les midium

[FenixGroup]

day 1 i noticed this and its hardly talked about. Seems full race length only offers 1 hard, 1 medium and several softs.

[D.Kyriakidis]

full race and 50% its the same 1 medium 1 hard only
i hope they fix it fast

They can not allocate the tyres themselves. As statet at 30.2 d) of the sporting regulations:

However, as alaric already said: They don't have to return every tire in the practice.

Whenever this gets brought up. I'ma keep plugging myself until Codies decide to fix the forced 3S/2M/1H practice hand in for 4S/1M/H race set. With my scuffed TyreSwap mod that is currently up on RaceDepartment

Because while its that hard for codies to let us pick the 6 sets we hand in after practice, some nerd with cheat engine has at least made it possible to have 2 mediums for the race allocation

ok then we want the choice to pick medium tyre from practice to race then make this

Yeah every 50% race now is the same strategy for every driver. medium -> hard. boring.

I finally decided to give the career part a go, so in the pits I noticed you can do stuff like drive through gates, and do a few laps so the engineers can set up the car, drive to save fuel and tyre's, blah, blah, blah. Anyway one thing that got me was one of the things you have to do says to use a medium tyre, but all the mediums are greyed out as they are allocated for the race, so you have to do it on a hard tyre, no big deal but why say medium if you cant use medium ?

It's been talked about quite a bit on the EA forums. CM already "noted" it and the issue was passed onto the devs. Don't know if it would be fixed tho, I'm not confident.

you can change the trye compound when you first select the practice program. You don't need to use the recommended trye they select for the program.

Doesnt matter you still have to give them away. Sadly you cannot go medium medium or hard hard like in real life in the race.

You also are forced to change tyres when pitting and they dont have to do this in real life (edit: I think). In 100% races this can make a difference. Imagine you worn out your hards now youre on medium till the end. You get front wing damage, now you either go to softs but then you have to pit again or you change to the hards which is impossible to drive.

Same with the safety car you can not unlap yourself. I had it that i was in 11 and safety came out. I pitted. The 10th place was able to overtake the safety car now the first was infront of me and i had to stay behind the safetycar. The 10th now shows up behind me. It would make sense that the stuarts would give me free. Why should they ruin my race when its about points?

Most of this doesnt apply to 25% races. And since most people play 25% they will never notice how bad it is to not be able to go medium- medium in the actual race. But if you drive 100% like me then you notice some stuff like the safetycar unlap thing, which really sux.

It should be like in real life.

Edit: Somebody correct me if iam wrong, but i dont think they have to change tyres if they only want to put up a new front wing.

Checked the FIA pitstop rules, but couldnt find anything regarding that its mandatory that you have to change tyres while pitting.

inb4 mandatory tyre change - its not about that.´

Edit: And actually the realistic version of the tyre allocation would make this obsolete anyway. You could just fit new mediums.
