Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Enter the F1 World series "Belgium Mastery" and note the tyre choice.

What do you expect to see? Assuming that the race is intended to be in dry track conditions: dry tyres being used. Assuming that the race is intended to be in wet track conditions: wet track conditions.
In the F1 World "Belgium Mastery" series you start the all three races with full wet tyres, even though the all races in the series are set in dry conditions.
During the races the player doesn't get prompted nor recommended to switch onto slicks, and the AI completes the full races without pitting, and only use the full wet tyres.
As this isn't a realistic tyre choice, I can only assume that this is an error or that the event is intended to be set in wet conditions.
Worth mentioning is that it isn't possible to select a slick tyre and you only can choose between intermediates and full wets in the strategy screen of the third event in the series which makes me think that this is indeed intended to be wet conditions.
Another thing, all AI cars have the rain light enabled and flashing, but that might just be due to game logic and based on currently equipped tyres.
An AI car caused a red flag early on in the third event. I had started the race on intermediates (lesser of the two evils), and selected softs in the MFD, and this is the strategy option I was presented with (the soft displayed in the strategy was never used), so it is safe to say that the game is confused about the conditions in these races:
Update:
Just had this issue happen to me again, but this time during stage 1 in the series "Advanced Driving II: Traction Control" (Australia).
After this I tried the second stage of the same series and the issue persisted, all cars starting on full wet tyres even though it was dry conditions.
However, when directly abandoning the race and restarting the game, and reattempting the race, the correct tyre was selected.
One thing that I noticed that the "wet" tyre behaves a lot like one of the hardest compounds possibly even the C0, and seems to react similarly to grip, temperature, and wear.
Speculation: Could the issue be related to the recent addition of the new tyre compound C0?
