hi all, i'm a new player, i did my third race of my first championship.
i don't understand, i have a better car than some teams that usually finished in 3th or 4th position (thanks spies hihihi), but i always finished at the bottom of the race ranking
how it's possible?
tips or hints?

you put on hard tyres when you were in 6th and i would imagine every1 else refitted softs, hards take longer to get upto optimum performance and you lost 6s+ a lap by being on hards instead of softs [because you only did a 10 lap stint] if you compare your times from laps 9-16 with laps with laps 18-27 you'll realise how much slower you were

malaysia: should have 3 stopped on softs.. or 2 on hards

australia: should have 2/3 stopped

will take you a season or so to figure out what strategy to do, also a lot depends on drivers/car % who's all running 2d [and if you know what your doing with it] etc [EDIT.... + how much fuel you have onboard]

Oh and i always do 100% races so my strategys might not be perfect for 50% races... pm me i'll give you a strategy for bahrain [is it 28 laps on 50% ?] 2morrow if your running 2d

car development is not the only thing. Race strategy, drivers are also impotant. A little hint, if you are a new player, race a champinchip, or 2, have a look at the datas, then you know, which strategie is helpful at each curcuit. have a look at your drivers and the others. Another thing, read the forum, there are several hints. A am sorry, that i only can give you this little hints, but otherwise, if i post here all i know, the other managers would kill me hehe :D So have a look at all parts of the game ;)
