Sprint race weekends are much closer in terms of real tyre strategy, running softs in the sprints is unfortunately, the only way to enable 2 sets of mediums for the main race.
There are a few circuits that 2 stopping on 2 sets of softs with 1 set of mediums is possible, circuits that are relatively light on tyre wear. That’s not many though and really doesn’t help with the rest of the calendar.
EA/ CM: you cannot leave this colossal screw up as it is. This bug is very much, not rectified as you have said in the other tyre allocation post. It’s time to admit and accept that quite simply, you’ve messed up, and it’s time to do a rollback to the 2021 tyre allocations for the 2022 game. This is the easiest solution for you to implement, and THE MOST POPULAR. I have no issue at all having a set of practice mediums swapped with a set of q2 softs.
If you cannot or won’t do this EA/ CM, then you don’t deserve the exclusive rights to the F1 franchise. Let another games company have the rights and actually provide a fully accurate game, not one that you’ve decided yourselves to implement what you feel to be ‘the best balance’ tyre allocations. Players are screaming at you to say it’s definitely not the best balance. Time for you to recognise this and do what we’ve been asking for, FIX IT!
