Cosa hai provato a fare?
I put fuel for 14.1 laps.
I ran using very low force most of the time. Rarely low force, even more rarely medium force.

Cosa è successo invece?
The fuel was not enough and ended before lap 14. This is illogical.

Il problema si è verificato durante l'utilizzo di dati Wi-Fi, mobili o entrambi?
Wi-fi

Il problema si è verificato nell'App, sul PC o in entrambi?
PC

Quale sistema operativo ha il tuo PC?
Windows 10

In quale browser hai riscontrato il problema?
Mozilla Firefox

Può essere riprodotto il bug?
This is an embarrassing problem. If I had used an average force for all 14 laps I would have had to go to the pits anyway.
The last free practice I did said 1.86 liters of fuel per lap.

Why do you think is so illogical Saw? 

Every track has its own characteristics. Some more turns than others, some more uphill than others, the track temp is hardly ever the same, are you always at the front of the pack catching clean air?....these are conditions that do logically have an impact on engine/tire/ and yes, fuel as well.  Unless we are doing drag racing, track conditions are not be ignored. 

My family always adds an extra click to the fuel line when in ends in .1. This ensures we don't ran out of fuel.

If the tire temperature is cold, and I'm using a very low thrust level, the fuel will consume faster. Is that what you're saying?

You need to also factor in that the fuel consumption has more than one numeral after the decimal. Where on Very Low push, you could be consuming 2.53 per lap instead of 2.5 per lap over 14 laps, that can easily be 35.42Litres instead of 35Litres, where you fueled for 14.1 laps as 35.25 Litres.

Your stint tab tells you how many laps you have remaining of fuel, check it at the lines and ensure you have at least an extra 0.2 to 0.4 left. You would want this anyways so you can heavy push the final two laps before the end of the stint.

My management was identical to that of the third stink, but in the third stink I still had 0.7 liters in the final lap.
I know what I did. Unfortunately it is difficult to admit that there are bugs that go beyond your imagination.
If your advice is to put 0.5 more fuel maybe you don't understand how this game works ... I hope you're not a mod.
I knew it was a waste of time to contact you. Good weekend...

close the topic as solved, I've already read enough.

Haha, are you serious?

Apparently I don't know how the game works :'), been playing 6 years before you and took a break.

As a player for 3+ years, I can say that for certain tracks, the fuel estimate on the setup page is indeed rather inaccurate. For example, Hungary's estimate of fuel needed on the setup page is quite a bit less than the actual consumption, even on lowest push. On the other hand, Brazil's estimate of fuel needed on the setup page is much more than the actual consumption even on highest push. Those are the two most extreme cases from my experience.

I suggest to have some notes to record fuel consumption (especially according to temperature) that you may use as reference for future seasons.

"I ran using very low force most of the time. Rarely low force, even more rarely medium force."  

Which one is it?  That's a factor. A player that knows how the game works would know that of course.

Lack of performance doesn't always = a bug.

Wow, that's what you got out of my comment? 


That would explain why you can't grasp the whole concept of not being perfect all the time. You had a bad race but all you can think of is; it must be a bug?  

And yes, when you ran cold tires you lack performance, but you probably already knew that since you know how this game works.

May we move this thread out of the bug section to the nonsense section of forum, please?
