EA Staff (Retired)The tyre allocation in career mode is locked!!!! You Can only change the tyre allocation in grand Prix mode, I'm in season 2 and locked with hards in qualifying and no hards in practice at all!!! Do I need to restart my career all over again?????
I'd expect it to be locked in Balanced then, not Harder option. Because as @tzk4zqceq735 stated, we don't have any Hards available for FPs and only one Medium for Tyre/Fuel/Race Strategy programmes. And if FP1 is wet session, those Mediums are lost before FP2 :/
Previous game versions replaced some Softs with different compounds, not just swap them around. I would expect similar behaviour here.
The only advantage is that we now have extra Mediums (and Hards) available for race.
But it looks like these new M or H tyres cause "not using two different sets of dry tires" penalty 😉
(it seems to me like they are still considered Softs internally)
