Controller players tyre wear

I know there is lots of complaints about this already but the tyre wear controller players have compared to wheel players have is so in-balanced. 

My friend(wheel) and I (controller) who are at a very similar pace play co-op career as team mates, the wear I experience is almost double at some tracks ; Silverstone,China, miami, qatar. To name a few. at first I thought it was my aggressive style however I tried being much smoother on the steering and braking it has little to no effect. 

Honestly I wouldn't bother me if I only competed against controller and ai it makes the races interesting with multi stop strategies. competing against a rig on a controller is just such a disadvantage, I don't expect it to be the exact same but atleast similar would be nice.

Cheers.

    This has been a massive oversight by the development team and quite simply isn't good enough. Previous F1 games have never had this issue, the tyre wear has historically always been the same for controller and wheel players.

    They won't do anything about it now, it's too far into the game. But it again highlights a lack of attention to detail. Things like this should be identified before releasing the game. Did they think that controller players weren't going to be competing against wheel players? 

    This is probably one of the biggest errors they have created in the F1 series of games and absolutely can NOT be repeated for 2026.
