Tyre wear is absolutely terrible
Is it me only who finds tyre wear absolutely horrible this year? It makes no sense the cliff the grip falls into after you hit 20% wear, you lose 1.5 or 2 seconds for no reason once you go over that ...

@Nellix82 tyre pressure is number one, toe is number 2. also a softer spring influences it.
But most of all, is driving. There is an amount of management in tyre preservetion in F1 23 never really seen before in previous F1 titles. You can really nurse your tyre and be a lot more consistent through out the stint and fast at the end.

@DavidGG53 @DavidGG53 Hi, can I just ask if higher tire pressures still affect the wear of the tires? Maybe I have made a mistake increasing the pressures to get a more balanced tire wear around tracks. Like at Baku where the rear tire wear is so high compared to the front I try to increase my rear tire pressures as much as I can while not overheating the tires and keep the front at the minimum pressures.
Or has this feature been adjusted or changed from earlier games?
And what else can help reduce rear or front tire wear setup wise? Like does 50 percent diff reduce or increase rear tire wear? And should you keep your temperatures under 100? Because I've been aiming to keep them under where the softest tire on the track gets yellow. Does this cause graining? I saw video of Alex Gillon talking about the tires graining and loss of 2 percent grip.

- @ImpartialCross06 In F1 23 is better to lower the pressure, for tyre wear, especially low grip low downforce tracks like Baku.
Just think of how much energy you create on the surface of the tyre. Higher pressure, less area of contact for the same load, more wear and more sliding.
Use more pressure really if you need more grip at high speed corners, otherwise go as low as possible pressure for better wear.- @DavidGG53 Okay thanks, so this has completely changed then, probably more realistic to how it works in real life so I won't complain about this.

Is there simply so much sliding/overheating which causes extra wear that it's still better to go with lower pressures?
