The races simply aren't long enough for the 2 stop to become valid, if you're gaining 1.2 seconds a lap on someone it'll mean in roughly 25 laps you have a whole pit stop in the bag (counting the 1 stop that all are doing) but that doesn't take into account the fact the other driver would start to drop times.

Oh yeah forgot to mention, the 1 stop strategy would be using a full tank for one stint and then 1/3 of a tank on the second stint. 2 stopper will be using just under half a tank for each stint.

The 1 and 2 stopper would pit for their final stint at around the same time, and after that the 1 stopper would have less fuel in his tank and have the advantage for the last 1/3rd of the race.

Like I said, I've done too much work on this.

We don't want to race next weekend! Enjoy the holiday. We'll continue as usual from the 12th :)

I'm away for the next week so it suits me best not having the race this weekend!

2 stops are about tires not fuel. Tire wear will be changed soon.

Taken from the patch notes:
Adjusted wear of Slicks and Rain tires to more realistic levels where needed. Typically GT/LMP/Formula cars will get slightly more than a full fuel load on soft or default slicks (depending on fuel load amounts).

I read that as though they were making the tyres last a bit longer than a full tank?

Yes I read that and it is worded a little wierd. The tire wear is being increased mainly on gt3, gt4, and fg1000. It's on the official forums hidden away in some thread. The head physics guy posted it I think.

Oh right ok, that's probably for the best and hopefully that will give some viability to double stops.
 
I'm going to miss Monza as I've got the summer holidays next week. I would miss any racing next week too as I'm going Sunday-Sunday.

My teammates are aware.
 
Gutted I missed the race yesterday. My internet decided to stop working and had an engineer over this morning to fix it. Was hoping to carry on the way I started the season. Roll on round 3, desperate to get back on track and race.
 
I'm thinking after the Season is over. We should have an Endurance Race. Do a mix Endurance with LMPS and GT3. I'd say a 12 Hour Endurance. Each Team Member will do 2 Hour Stints. Tally the Total time of each Race. Have team of 4. With 10 Teams in Total. I'm thinking Le Mans.. Do the same with the Series now. The Pros will Race with the Pros and Semi Pros Race and so on. What do you all think..
 
How would stints work tho cause u can't have one team use 1 car u can't do driver changes in race can u?

I guess do multiple races? Kind of makes the whole endurance aspect pointless with loads of starts though.

No Project Cars doesn't have the Lobby Setting like that right now. We would have to create a room for every Stint. The scoring will be based on Laps and Total Driving Time from your Team. Each Team would decide on a GT or an LMP Car. Do 7 or 8 of each car in a Lobby..

@MrMattAdz i don't think it's pointless. We could always do Teams of 3 or 4. I think 4 is better. Do 7 LMPs and 7 GT Cars in the Room. Just have one Lobby and swap Drivers by Teammates entering and exiting the Lobby.

It'd be interesting I suppose; a bit of a novelty. But I don't know if the turnout would be anywhere near what would be needed. Esp with ~25% missing for the second round of the main championship.
 
With the monza corner cuts that can be done would it not be a good idea to race monza later in season and swap it with a track like brands hatch or Catalunya, just untill it's fixed? Still race monza but later in season when the track is not able to be cut.
 
Lol catalunya has horrific corner cutting on the chicane, you can pretty much go straight over the second part of it full throttle without getting any penalties.

Apart from that thought I agree, it would be best if we delayed any tracks with problems.

Yes forgot about that last chicane, brands hatch is probably better option as no corner cuts on there defo need to get this sorted then message everyone in series on here and psn, brands hatch would make sense.
 
Seriously lads, if someone wants to cheat then let them. If i cut a corner or cut someone up then i slow for a couple seconds then resume, it makes me feel better but if someone wants so cheat to win, i mean needs to win that badly that they have to cheat, bless them and their desperately sad life, dont get me wrong, if there was 10 grand at stake id be like screw you guys im gone, but for braggin rites??........

Oh, thats not fair, i wanted to LIKE this comment.
 
We might as well delay it though as the patch should fix it. It's not just about winning it's also about the enjoyment of the race, if you have two people going into that chicane one of them can just cut the corner and make an incredibly easy overtake. They might slow down and let you take back the position but there's no guarantee.
 
Monza will stil Go ahead just at a different date, I'd much rather race it when it will
Be more enjoyable knowing you will get punished for a mistake, and nobody can cut any corners. I'd defo go with brands hatch instead we need to get this official though so people know what track to start practicing.
