It’s like they have DRS the whole race

EA Staff (Retired)@DRudd13 Yes, we max do x2 tyre wear. So, on a 25% race is really easy to manage the wear. I do not see any problem to be 100% honest.
It makes sense to have X2 instead of X4. I play 100% distance and tyre wear is fine from my experience. If tyre wear was multiplied by 4 in many tracks softs wouldn't last more than 4-5 laps. Plus it doesn't make sense to have a X4 that would make a 25% distance a potential 2 stoppers...
It would be fun strategically but races would be less enjoyable. I mean we would constantly see stints of 3/4 clean laps...
- @sirio42994 The meta would be one stop medium to hards, as it was IRL the past years for most tracks simply because you dont gain the time back you lose via another stop, too few laps to make significant gains.
Exactly. Nobody would run a 2 stopper they'd rather go for crazy amount of wear or H-S every time.
Regarding the last laps. Stopping for the fastest lap isn't coded so basically those are the laps when you can get the fastest lap. It would be too easy. I remember when we could managed the ERS and fuel mix with hot lap and mix 3 was a guaranteed fastest lap against the AI even with a midfield car...
