After the pit stop the race pace drops absurdly, it seems that the tire never wa

After the pit stop, I literally run out of race pace, it seems that the tire never warms up, that it is always cold. I started hard, put on medium and the pace was worse, without any damage to the car and with it lighter due to the fuel. I stopped again and put it on soft and it still felt like I was walking on ice, even after several laps of warming up the tyre.

Look at the images and see how the pace drops after the pit stop. The hard tire Latife who has a lower car than mine was faster than me in a new Soft

    @Julianoren9 This is how it is in real F1 this year. There has been a change to the rules regarding the tyre blanket temps. So tyres are a lot colder when changed.

    @ajobling1983 Tyres actually do generally warm up after a lap or so of running. If the pace is still slow after that there's something else going on.

    Look at the second picture he attached. One slow lap after tyre change then back upto speed. Not sure what your referring to ‘something else going on’

    @ajobling1983 Cold tires when leaving the pits yes, that's right, but what happens here with me is that it heats up there on the temperature screen, but I just don't have the grip on the track. I spend the rest of the race after the pit suffering, walking on ice, even if it's a medium pnej or even a soft one. Something is wrong

    @capitãozachevil That's right. It even heats up on the canvas, but on the track it's horrible to drive, it can be 7 laps after the pit, when it looks like the tire is still cold.

    What setups are you using. Are your tyres overheated? Need more info really.
