You're supposed to be able to choose the tires, I think CM did it wrong this year and didn't keep up with the correct tire rules (could be by design too)
For example, in Bahrain this year Bottas did a S/M/M/S strategy, you can't do that in this game at all because you are limited to only 1 Medium compound during the race

Try other tracks other than the ones that include sprint races because the allocation there is different.

Tire allocation screen for Austria says 4 red for Q1 and Q2 and yellow and white for race, no red.
But Pirelli give the team all versions of the tires (Pirelli only chooses which compound C1/C2 and C4/C5) and teams can decide what to do.
I am still wondering that white and yellow are mandatory (that’s not the case in real F1). Red/white should be fine too. Maybe not the fastest choice but if I drive without all assists I would like to have free choice too, even if it’s nonsens and I need to make another stop because my strategy was crap. I want it so realistic as possible. And: If you choose two stops red is possible but isn’t mentioned in the tire allocation table. That’s weird.Still thinking that this is still wrong in the game.

It is wrong in the game, as I said above. I haven't seen anyone from EA or CM side acknowledge that it is wrong though, so I think it may be a lost cause for this year.
