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.

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.
also a question. Did you perhaps use soft tires allot in practice? in that instance you shared.
- I play on the PS4 console and I know that I'm not the only one with this problem, I think this must be happening on other platforms too.
- @ivun3 you say in training? in training we are obliged to use only one tire, which in this case is the hard tire, it is not possible to change it, I only used the hard one, in the average races of 35% the 5 sets of tires are 3 hard and 2 soft, one hard is used in training and then returned, in Qualy we are obliged to use only a soft tire and in Sprint we use the new soft tire, and the AI too. in Sprint we can choose the hard ones but then the other pilots go in softs and the bug happens with the AI in the feature race too
Ah now I understand.
You are left with 2 hard tires in the feature race, but it is mandatory to use 2 different compound tires. Hence maybe why you were forced to use the sprint tires, even tho they are used. And appearantly the game chooses sprint tire and not qualifying tire.
Were you not allowed to use 1 hard compound tire for the entire sprint? That way you have one hard and one soft tire left in the feature race, instead of 2 hard tires with mandatory need for another tire. As in feature race the mandatory pit stop also requires one to change to a different compound. 2 times hard or two times soft is not allowed in feature face. One hard and one soft. Or any two different tires that are available.
It is weird tho, that the game chooses sprint tires instead of qualifying tires. That would make more sense.
I had the same experience where the bug occurs to almost all ai players, except a few. Which means they are way quicker.
But if the bug occurs for all ai players too then I assume it doesn't affect race results. You can still win with two overused tires.
I think you didn't understand very well, but you're almost understanding. Look, there's my comment here with the photos, you can see that in the first photo I stop at Qualy (complete) with only one lap the tires were 9% I went to Sprint with the new soft tire as the game says, I can choose a tire hard to Sprint plus the AI goes from new soft to Sprint and only me from hard, finally I did the Sprint with a new soft tire it got 55% wear. I went to the feature race and the game chose the Qualy tire plus it with added damage of 41% as you can see in the fifth photo of the comment the right thing was to have 9% wear and you see in the last photo that I stopped still in feature race to put the used soft tire to see if it was the Sprint one and the Sprint tire as I put it as you can see in the last photo it has the same wear that ended the Sprint race that is the tire we used in the Sprint no gets added damage as the first strategy tire for the feature race
- @ivun3 do you play medium or long races?
I play everything at full simulation and length, least assist.
Sprint has to use hardest tire one time, so that you have two full life tires of two different compounds at feature race.
But that is just what I think. I might be wrong.
