Tyre wear barley affects AI
Product: F1 22 Platform:Sony Playstation 4 Summarize your bug Not sure if it’s a bug but I’ve noticed the AI barley get affected by tyre wear. Russel had 40+ Lap old medium tyres and I had 40+ old ...

For qualifying, I went 1.8 quicker than GP mode, 2nd was 1.9 quicker and my teammate was 2.2 quicker.
In the GP race, my advantage in qualifying didn't transpire in the race and max won
In the driver career race, my advantage did convert to race pace and I won. Had a 4/5 second gap most of the race till the last lap.
So I still believe it's tyre related, but this is the last I'll mention it. But if someone is complaining about AI, find out what mode they're on.
So my conclusion is if you're playing My Team, Driver Career or the Weekly Event. Go with last year's AI. If GP, you may as well be guessing.
I know I said no more posts. But just been watching this guy on YouTube. Clearly he's a good player even with controller. And he expects to get first when he started.
It's almost like his tyre's go off compared to the AI after 4 laps of every stint, even though he started on the more durable tyre.
@DRudd13Because the AI isn’t effected by tyre temps. I’m assuming it’s just their carcass temps. Maybe surface temps as well but theres no way off telling as viewing the Ai cockpit Cam only displays carcass temps. So I changed temps from carcass and surface to surface only. And my carcass temps were exactly the same as ai throughout an entire race.
So I figure. if you can’t beat them join them and I’ve been running with surface temps only. Benefit means as surface temps quickly cool back down to optimal levels on straights. So I can run with higher pressures which means less tyre wear. Just finished Australia 50% with soft/medium strategy. Both sets off tyres didnt wear beyond 60%. That was with maxed tyre upgrades.
Not ideal but it does put you on a level playing field/track with the au and also mean I can turn up ai difficulty which makes for better on track gameplay.- @ScarDuck14
As a workaround, that will possibly work, and I will do 1 final test on GP mode to try it. But the fact I don't need to do it in any other game mode surely proves that something in the coding for GP mode isn't right and needs at least investigating by EA/CM. But it's not even on a list. And when I first mentioned it to Dave G, He just told me that the AI were affected by tyre wear the same as the player.
But as I've said earlier I'm done with GP mode, I just think that like I was close to doing, other players can't make any sense of the game in GP mode. Get frustrated and have just stopped playing - @DRudd13 I think the ai were initially affected by temps. But was possibly changed after one off the early patch’s. As on release Ai cars frequently missed corners and crashed. Then all off a sudden they stopped crashing.
I still see them having a spin here and there, but not as frequently as they did in earlier editions.
But as expected, the workaround (surface only) worked in GP mode around Belgium on 75, and was more reflective in what I had managed to do in a driver career with carcass* and surface.
I've provided all the information I can on this subject. So I'm definitely dropping it.
