Hi, I had a race today where the track was fully wet and it was done for wet conditions. I had done my setup and I do remember choosing the full wet tyres for both cars. 
I come to qualifying with high hopes, click results and I'm down in 21st and 22nd on Inters?! Well, i thought that was it. Then, somehow.. the Weather changes and it goes cloudy.. Well that was my saving grace and by the time the race started, Inters where the right tyres to go on. I did manage to win the race (by 15 seconds) and come 4th. But this was a 25% race and something like this nearly blew it for me. I am sure I didn't change to Inters in the set up as the track was fully wet. i don't know whether this is a bug, or my drivers somehow knew it was cloudy and put on the inters.

If you would like to watch and see this, the race is at around 45 minutes (just skip to it) http://www.twitch.tv/f1racingmad/b/474405781 

Thankfully I gained points on my rival rather than lose 43 but I don't understand what went wrong. Had the Italian's not put heaters on the track...My championship would be pretty much over.

If it's raining at the start it will switch to the wet weather tyre you have chosen under advanced strategy. Perhaps it will even do this if you have chosen full wets and your selected wet weather tyre under advanced strategy is intermediates. I could get our sim developer to confirm/refute that if you want, but I'm pretty sure that's what is going on.

It's ok, I just didn't know if it was a bug
