Pit Lane Tyre Sim?

Can someone please explain this setting to me? Does turning it on mean that the temperature of the tyres is now variable in the pit lane for all drivers, real and AI? Or does turning it on mean that ...

    @A40lbLobster It levels up all cars' tyre temps after the pit stop is made. Usually, those cars' boxes that are placed right after the pit entry will eventually drop tyre temps when going through the pit lane after the pit stop. While Williams' cars will not have this drop since their pit boxes are at the very end of the pit lane.

    @A40lbLobster Related topic. If you’re solely racing Ai. Ai always keep their tyres at optimal temperatures. To avoid being handicapped by this especially on tracks where tyre temps are hard to manage and you lose a couple of seconds a lap to the Ai. Switch tyre temps to surface only. If you do that it makes the whole pit thing irrelevant anyway.

    @A40lbLobster For league racing keep it on, since it's more realistic if racing with racing people, not AI.

      @Blackbird90 Do you recommend the same thing for the “Unsafe Pit Release”? Keep it ON for the league races so there is no ghosting in the pit lane?

        I'd keep it OFF since it completely removes the unpredictability that happens when lots of cars pit and certain cars can be held up in the pits for an inappropriately long. It's a game after all, we don't need to police safety in the pits.)
