In race Strategy

Just curious I'm really new to this game and I read about a lot of different push level stategies. My last two races I have been running on PL2 for the most part upping to PL5 on sharp Corners and PL4 on less sharp Corners switching back to PL2 coming off the corners back into the stretch. This seems to work pretty well as far as using Hard Tyres is concerned when it comes to Tyre temps. I have been using one stop strategy H/H. The problem is Im losing to much ground in the beginning of the race to drivers starting on SS or S. It seems to me that using a short first stint SS strategy maybe a 5 lap stint to get up front. Maybe dumping all my Kers lap one to try to acquire the lead and get some clean air and then switch to Hard tired after that might be a better in race Strategy on 50% races. Any suggestions or comments?

Hi Mike I can tel you the best strategy but then where is the fun in that. Best thing to do is experiment differrent tyres and differrent strategies and see what works best for you. Have fun!
