Problems with Le Mans under 1.06

Just before the 1.06 upgrade I ran Le Mans B-spec and won with a Toyota Minolta.

After the upgrade I ran it again, and this time finished third... Admittedly rain early on didn't help, but after being asleep for much of the race I saw the last half-hour or so. What was happening was that my car was pitting *every lap*!!!. Seemed to be happening to other cars as well - looking at Sector 1 times showed plenty that were pitting more often than they should have.

Also at the end the timing list showed me crossing the line fourth, but in race results I was third!!!

Anyone else had these problems?
 
I tried it during a Super GT race - only solution to the problem seemed to be that you had to press "ok" when your driver pitted. It's like they ask for the password to pit and if they don't get it they'll beg you one more time... pitting again. Bobs got more aggressive yet a bit more stupid.

During the 1.05 patch, at the end of a 4hr Nürburgring, my Bob crossed the finish line about 35 seconds before the time limit was up.

When the next AI driver crossed the line, the HUD switched from 1st place to 12th... I was about to get really mad about the time wasted because of a bug, then the next AI driver crossed the line and my indicator switch to 11th...

Long story short, about the time Bob got to schwalbenschwanz he was in 1st again...
 
I saw the same issue a couple times before 1.06. I tried fighting it for a few laps, but Bob was never happy with any style of tire so I gave up and canceled the race. It's as if one part of the track was being reported as having wetter pavement than other sections.
 
I had this happen with a FGT on the Tsukaba 9hour. I woke up and Bob was 10 laps behind:indiff: with half hour to go. I had to tell Bob to cancel pit-in every lap to win.

I took the X2010 to Le Mans 24hour. Bob had no trouble, but around the 20-ish hour, most of the opponents were pitting every lap or two.

But when I did A-Spec Le Mans 24hour in a R10, the opponents didn't do the same retarded thing.

It's a head-scratcher.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, this was all before v1.06. Haven't tried it since.

This was happening before patches if my memory serves. This has plagued me once but I've seen it plague the AI cars on many enduros at La Sarthe and Nurburgring Enduros.

I've also had problems with the weather showing heavy downpour, start race with Racing Rains on but Bob keeps pitting and cycling through all the racing compounds. No rooster tails either regardless of tire choice. Weird bug. It's like the track is dry in a downpour lol. This happened on the Monza race of the DCC. All this was pre patch. This happened to me once only so maybe the "1.05" patch fixed it.
