About those tyre temps…
Nobody notice how tyre CORE temp is always higher than the outside temp? Nowadays my tyres are above 102 degrees after couple laps, while my surface temp is 68 degrees or something, and even if I bur...

@Iceman038-NL what would you consider a good, "ok, that's a wrap" answer? I'm only on my phone right now and about to go on a trip for the weekend.
iRacing has their own tyre model based on a theoretical approach instead of an empirical model like most simcades out there. Meaning they work on materials, hysteresis, load and temperature sensitivities... All that jazz, they work on it all so that their physics engine has to simulate a realistic tyre model instead of feeding it a look up table and have it connect the dots.
iRacing's Mercedes W13 was made in partnership with Mercedes F1 team. You can look up the details on their Downshift podcast with James Vowles on how the project developed.
Not playing games here, mind you. Genuinely love these topics. May even have something at hand like a source or link to someone spilling the beans on Beyond The Grid or the like in my notes, but right now this toilet quick post is all I can offer.
That fluctuation is realistic.
Why cant F1 23 have that sort of tyre temp and tyre wear, they are just scipted to me at the moment and the last lap thing fastest lap for all AI cars come on this is childs stuff has to change drastically next year.
