Pete Edwards medal 5000 11 years 129 days ago
Over the last 2 races, I have had enough fuel and tyre wear to finish the race yet both times i have pitted on the last lap which has then cost me vital positions and points!
I haven't selected to do this via my strategy, and according to race stats after, there is no need to do it!
I AM NOT HAPPY!
What is going on?

Sounds very strange. Are you sure there wasn't a couple of raindrops that came down during the final laps?
The weather strategy "autopit" can be a bit stupid if you don' pay attention.

Pete,
In Germany, you had 3.4 litres to do the final lap, which wasn't enough fuel. You were averaging 3.6 per lap prior to that, so your driver pitted to avoid running out of fuel.
In Hungary, stint 1, you did 17 laps on 55 litres & then for stint 2 you tried to do 18 laps with 54 litres, & so your driver did the same thing.
In Belgium, you had 42 litres for 8 laps in stint 2 & then tried to do 9 laps on 41 litres in stint 3.
Hope this helps with your coming races. Let me know how you get on.
