Trolled by my strategy guy?

4 races in a row since switching to a new technical director, he has given me troll strategies each time.

1 =6 fuel short even when I +8'ed his fuel
1 he said to 3 stint on softs, ie running <30% tires for 10 laps
1 dont know because he put intermediates on in torrential rain and went +4 laps from p1 p2
last race he gave me a 3 stint strategy that was 25 fuel short even with +8 fuel added... what the hell?
next race he predicts 2.6 fuel per lap....

Couple of points

1/ You technical director will be wrong
2/ Intermediates/Wets depend on your preset wet weather strategy, or what you choose during the race
3/ If you have 96 races experience, you would be better loading last seasons strategy [and working from that] than listening to any new strategy a technical director will give you [as your previous results give you EXACT details of fuel/tyre wear and how you compared against other strategys,]

The Below is regarding JAPAN
i.e In PRO you ran a 3 stop [and finished the race], the next season in Elite you pitted 1 lap before the end [if you had loaded the pro setup you would have finished the race] and this season you ran the same strategy, but with less fuel again,
although if you look at the results from your league a 4stop is faster than a 3 stop anyway

If you look at the above link, it will show you how much fuel you used [starting fuel[-]fuel left when you pitted[/]number of laps, will give you the average fuel per lap

Then assuming you want to 3stop[4 stints]
14/13/13/13 or something similar works out roughly at 56/52/52/52 litres
compare that to what you run in pro

and there prob quite similar, and compare that to what you run yesterday you they will be miles different, partly because your technical director is wrong, and more-so because you didnt analyse previous strategy's/results

Although you would knock a minute+ from your time by running a different strategy
e.g. 4 stop is 11/11/11/10/10, first 3 stints at 11*[average fuel per lap] next 2 stints at 10*[average fuel per lap] and prob chuck an extra litre or so on top just to make sure, then adjust your strategy the season after if you carried too much extra fuel, or if tyres got to a low % add another pit stop in.. Or run shorter stints on softs and longer stints on hard, entirely upto you

Thats not the point at all.

The point is most technical directors are what, 1 lap wrong in fuel? This guy is 10 laps wrong in fuel, he is literally plucking numbers from thin air.

If you have a low level TD he will overfuel you, if you have a high level TD he will [it appears] underfuel you. If you dont like his advice sack him [although the issues with underfuelling etc need to be looked at, if theres not a thread already in suggestions i'll create one]

The point i'm trying to make is that you have 4+ seasons of experience, regardless of the level of your TD by looking at previous results you will be able to choose a much better strategy that any preset that a TD will give you [also it will load last seasons setups, so your setups for the track will constantly improve]

Also if you look at your previous results at Japan e.g. you will see that despite having 34 training sessions [and levelling up] your times round the track have actually got slower. Just trying to help
