Are we allowed free choice of tires for race ? Or is it same rule as whatever tire you qualy on you must start on ?
Also since its a rain race is the 8 lap medium requirement still enforced for this race ?
If the race starts the same settings as the qualifying, then you should keep tires the same as qualifying for the race!
1 for using different starting tyres to qual
1 for using same starting tyres as qual
This needs to be brought up! The settings you have currently for the qualifying will vary the track conditions! I ran 3 different races for 4 laps over qualifying simulation and they changed from rain at the start then sunny, and rain at the start with it continuing to rain. With scenario 1 the track dried to 20%. Scenario 2 the track got wetter up to 50%+. This means someone will be screwed over in terms of starting position. Times will vary a huge 25 seconds from my testing! This needs to be addressed!
cant remember where the sign up list is, but ill be racing
This is the natural randomness of the rain setting. Example F1 Malaysian Grand Prix's Qualifier last lap w/ Vettel. We cant control GT5 to that depth, someone will get screwed by the end of this qualifier. Isn't that why we have this rolling of the dice wet race happening? Randomness?!,..![]()
In order to address these issues qualifying will now be run at 30% surface water 75% weather and 0 changeability. That way everyone has the same settings and it will be the same conditions
Now due to the fact qualifying and race specs are different tyre change is allowed between qual and the race.
Thanks for bringing it up.

Qualifying will now be run at 30% surface water 75% weather and 0 changeability. You start the race on the tires you qualify on!
Oh by the way guys ill be higher on your community lists now. Just reached level 40at last
freshseth83Any times so far from Qualifying or testing? Lets put it like this- slicks won't work unless you're a gambling man that the rain will stop during the race, and soon. First lap will be key IMO. If you get going and in a hurry, you will set your best lap on the outlap because it's just going to get wetter and you'll slow, even on inters or wets.
