For all struggling with understeer/oversteer postpatch midrace

Most of this will likely come through tyre temperatures. Even with a default setup the worst car in the game can take corners flat which some on here claim to to be able to, its all just a matter of...

@Meza994 I also noticed the tire temp seem to affect softer tires a lot more than harder ones.

I just finished a 100% distance race at Abu Dhabi yesterday in MyTeam. And the constant 100-102 degrees was absolutely killing my soft tires. However, at the same temperature, my medium was able hold it's performance just fine (for 28 laps) and even faster than my soft (though my less fuel load while I'm on medium might play a huge factor here).

@Apophis-STR In theory they should work the same but might be that you were driving slightly differently with the mediums due to the lower grip they gave and thus not reaching higher temps on the surface - or the track temps were a bit lower causing less surface overheating.

There are many factors but all the temps are gonna be much more interesting now and hopefully even more important next year!

    @Meza994Agree, really like how now we (somewhat) need to face the same challenge and struggle real drivers does, it's no longer just a simple sprint to the finish line.

      @Apophis-STR Yup but sadly AI seems unaffected so far but thats something they can change in the future, it takes the right direction!

        So just like the fact the last two games now do not need brake balance above 50%

        The newest patch means you do not under any circumstances need tyre pressures just set them at the lowest level

        The setup of the game has become a joke its basically on every track, 50% brake balance, lowest tyre pressures, full right/left on the camber page
