@grainphNot knowing the true reason behind it, but the qualifying program had been broken since F1 2020 from my personnel experience. Except, now it's even more broken since the v1.06 patch.
My suggestion is don't bother with completing that program, just use the opportunity on tracks to compare your laptime with the AI on the same tires. I found that if you could match your closest rivals' actual lap times (on the time board) in FP, you could match them comfortably in the same difficulty setting for both quali and race, it's a much better tool for finding difficulty setting references than using GP mode.
@Apophis-STR , thank you for taking the time to join the conversation and for your insightful thoughts. I do agree with your approach and is indeed the one I am forced to use. Having said that, I was hoping we could get some clarification from the team at EA as to why the game logic cannot yet determine this, as the resource points help with the development of the My Team progress. Hopefully we will see this fix in future patches.

@grainphYea it was an very annoying thing, sadly I think the only time CM actually mention about practice program rebalancing was from the last patch, which still didn't fix the quali program for some reason (The despair of seeing the whole map still being red...lol)
At the moment we could only try to go around the issues ourselves, but at least they're definitely working on fixing issues raised by the community, albeit a slow progress.- 3 years ago
@Apophis-STR I am patient as F1 is life lol. I think the new game is appealing to a broader market of gamers but moving forward, I want to see the focus on the true simulation of the driving and the physics. Would be nice is EA lasered the tracks like iRacing. Have every detail be a true representation of the circuit.

On 21 (90 difficulty), I never had any issue with practice programs and could always get them in the green at least.
In 22, at 90 difficulty I was always about 1s off the qualy lap time, and about 0.5s up in race pace program. So lowered my difficulty to 85.
Since patch 1.07, on 85 I am about 0.5s off in qualy practice and still 0.5 up on race pace programme - so it has balanced out a bit.
Haven’t tried the new 1.08 patch yet, but am hoping I can achieve a similar result on 90 as I am on 85 currently.
