Game Is Still Defaulting to Dry Tires During Rain
Product: F1 24

Summarize your bug After patch 1.7 in Career mode, cars are still being defaulted to slick tires in the rain. For example, when starting qualifying in the rain (with DRS Disabled by the stewards), all cars are put on slicks as the "recommended" compound. When I switch to Inters or Wets, the game will warn me that I'm not going onto the track with the recommended compound, and keeps the AI on slicks. In the last session where this happened, the AI eventually switched to Inters in Q3, but were on Softs in Q1 and Q2, leaving me to be seconds ahead of the grid on Inters.
What is your 16 digit Report Code? I forgot to grab it, sorry.
What peripherals are you using? Please list the exact make and model. MOZA R9 base, MOZA GS V2 wheel, MOZA SRP pedals.
Can you please provide the name of your current internet service provider? Spectrum
Which area is the bug/glitch in? Single Player
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Run Career mode and go out on track in a wet quali session. You should see the AI on slicks and the game defaulting you to slick tires.
What happens when the bug occurs? AI running on the wrong tire compound in the rain, causing skewed results and lap times.
What do you expect to see? The game correctly recommending and defaulting the tire compounds to inters or ex wets in rainy sessions.
Apologies for not remembering to grab the Report Code. Most recently, this happened during quali at Australia in Career mode, and it was when the session STARTED with a wet track. This is not currently appearing in the list of things being investigated or awaiting a patch. In other tests where a session started with a dry track and transitioned to wet, AI changed tires correctly.
There is the workaround for the player to select the correct tire compound in the MFD menu, but this did not used to be an issue in previous titles, as the race engineer would adjust your strategy as needed and give you the option to confirm it (this does not happen anymore in F1 24).
