Tyre Wear at 100% on race starts in F2
I don’t know if anyone has been having this issue on the F1 races but this is game breaking for the career.
Forum Discussion
Ok.... this is very strange...
Today on silverstone feature race, I got 2 brand new 0 degredation tires, hard and soft for the entire race.
Im not sure what the rules are anymore... Or if this is a bug or just different rules for different tracks?
Or did they fix the bug if it was a bug at all?
Im not sure anymore. Isn't it mandatory in full f2 career to use practice and quali tires in feature race? Because that was the case for me in the first few races of full f2 career. But now on silver stone it seems I saved my practice and qualifying tires for nothing. Because I got new tires in both sprint and feature race.
I'm completely confused now.
What is going on? Is there a bug that only occurs on certain tracks? Or does every track have a different ruleset for tire usage?
Or was all f2 career bugged and now fixed? Or is it a bug that simply sometimes doesnt occur?
@ivun3F2 and the game in general is very bugged + the game doesnt follow every rule from real life, be it F1 or F2
But to give you a little insight, by the actual rules you can use whatever tyre you want whenever you want in real F2. In the game the rules usually are that you can only use 1 tyre in practice and 1 tyre in qualifying, however as F2 in the game is so badly replicated i never tested thoroughly if the tyres used in practice are returned to Pirelli.. The qualifying tyre you can definitely keep for both races.
I found the tire rules for f2, 5 dry weather and 3 wet tires.
TYRE ALLOCATION
The sporting regulations state that each driver will be allocated five sets of dry-weather tyres per weekend. They will have three “prime” specification sets and two of the “option” specification. Each driver will also be provided with three sets of wet-weather tyres.
The game doesn't make that clear.
In silverstone I used 1 hard tire for practice, 1 soft tire for qualifying, (I used them very little, thinking I had to re use them, 5 laps on the hard tire in practice and 2 flying laps in qualifying on the soft tires), and then used 1 hard tire for the entire sprint race. So 3 tires used. And 2 tires left for feature race; hard and soft.
I don't remember why I had slightly worn tires in first few feature races of the full f2 career.
- @ivun3 Its because the tyres from qualifying and sprint can be reused in the feature race, prime from sprint makes no sense but in theory you can which is realistic
- You only sprint with the hard tires if you put long or full sprint. the average race of 35% it uses the new soft tire for the Sprint and for the feature race we use the soft tire used in the qualy but no matter how much you save the soft tire of the Qualy it will always come more worn out than you he left. (Example if you do two laps in full Qualy in bahrem for example, it doesn't matter what track it is, if you left the soft tire of Qualy in 20% of wear in the Freature Race it appears with more damage)
What is really strange is that in your strategy window it shows 100% tire life on starting tires. but when you start the race it shows almost 50% tire degredation.
That is definitely bugged, according to the information you provided.
