Currently in race but on Ws in Monaco, 0.2mm water level, spitting, settings at 5mm wet 15 laps before change for me to decide, alter pit stop to SS and 8laps, get in change to Ws...... have to pit again losing even more time... useless please fix before you lose more players we have already seen some good players leave our league, last race i lost points due to pitting with 1.1laps of fuel left 1 lap from end there has got to be some better control on this.

Disable auto pit for live managers and force people to press the pit button to get drivers to come in. Sounds like a plan. But people might complain, why did my driver keep going till they ran out of fuel instead of pitting.

doesnt fix the setting up to pit SS and when it pits it chooses Ws for whatever reason

I'm sure someone with the ability to check things out, is looking into it.
The possibilities.
Lag in the connection, changes you made where not picked up.
Because it was raining, race was following Advanced Settings.
Advanced Settings have messed me up a few times also.
The latest similar to the issue you had. In my case the rain had stopped. On lap 13 I selected for the driver to use Intermediates in the next stint, when the driver pitted on Lap 15 he exited the Box with Mediums fitted to the car.
Advanced Settings might be something else for them to consider Disabling for live managers.
Stuart did you use the strategy tab at the top or the quick select one on the drivers hub?
I'm thinking of a problem in the past where the one on the drivers hub wasn't working.

If your at the race the advanced and all auto pit shouldn't control the pit stops if your at race then you should make decisions when and if you put inters or wets or want to stop on any for dry weather to see if it short shower

Japanese and Singapore race, twice in both of these races I came out on full wets when pitting for soft or supersoft. Lost slots of points in a league that is difficult to get near to scoring points grrrrrrr

Seriously stop the wet races or fix them at a water level, setup in the wet, online, advanced settings W over 5mm, change to S if it stops raining for 50 laps.
Race starts i'm on W its raining, 16 laps later I'm pitting the rain stopped a few laps before, its under 3mm now so I pick inters, come out on S, even if it stopped raining on lap 1 the setting shouldn't have changed.

Hi Stuart.
I feel your frustration. I'm not trying to make excuses for the advanced strategy, it sucks. If it's raining at the beginning of the race, because of the recent changes to drying times, even in 100% races it's most likely that the entire race will be run on one of the wet compounds. In these circumstances I always select Inters at 50 laps if it stops raining. This means that if it stops raining during qualifying you will start the race on inters (instead of slicks) and would most likely have prevented you from suffering the "surprise tyres" today.
As I say, it's not an excuse, I'm just trying to help people until such time as the devs do something about this.
