Or you just need to use a better strategy
no matter what strategy you use hard tires are always bad and you almost never use them. It is better to extend the soft or medium tires to the point of stopping below 50% of using the hard tires because the loss of performance is very large.
whenever there is someone with hard tires and I stop 1 lap before putting on soft or medium tires I gain 3 seconds in 1 lap and if the person is not faster than me it is difficult to recover.
decreasing the performance loss of the tires especially the hard ones would allow the managers to put the hard tires at least at the end so they don't have to make an extra stop because the way it is the races are very boring and most go with the same strategy and I can't risk something different with 1 of my drivers because the h tires lose a lot of performance.
