Hi all,
Whilst I have lots of fun playing with the strategy calculator (or whatever its correct name is) it seems to me that it is set up to use the default tyre wear values for the race, rather than the values specific to each driver, based on their Smoothness rating. I have been concentrating on improving the Smoothness rating of my drivers and, as a result, they are quite high. Because of this, I'm finding that, having set up the 'perfect' pitstop strategy for the race, my drivers then don't use the tyres at the expected rate. I know that I could just instruct them to push harder, and so wear the tyres quicker, but I'd rather see their better tyre wear reflected in the strategy calculator, so that I would know, for example, whether I can manage a one-stop strategy.
In the real world, part of the work teams do in the practice sessions is to assess tyre wear for just this reason. It would be nice to see this shown in the game.
Regards,
Chuda
