I would like to ask about the wet weather races. The forecast for my race tomorrow is wet. It will be my first wet race so I am unsure how it will work. Do I set up the car and the tyres and pit stops for the wet weather or do I set up for dry weather? I am not asking for any help that would give me an advantage, I would just like to get the information ℹ need to decide how I should set up for the race. I have no idea and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Do the setup a few minutes before the race.
It might be dry practice and turn wet later in the race or the other way around, but it's a gamble you have to take everyone is in the same position, so there is no real advantage or disadvantage. Just have to be on the right tyres at the right time and there is no way of knowing what that is until you are on the track. A lucky guess is also helpful if you know how long it's been raining for lol

If it rains a few minutes befoe race then you should choose to run on either inters or wets.If one of the two is faster in that condition then choose that tire to start with.If it is a wet/dry race whenit is drying.DO NOT pit for dry tires,pit for inters.Until It is like 0.5 or DRS activation lap then pit for dry tires.If it is a wet race then have like a 1stop and stop like half of the race distance bcuz if someone that is in front of you and they pit for 2 times and only like 2 sec ahead then when they come out,they will have a heavier fuel load then you so that will be your clear advantage because when you are lighter,you will go faster.And they will also lose another 20 sec bcuz they will have to pit again.So 1 stop in the rain is the strategy but It is up to you.And wet/dry race is based on luck so set your stats to be on the right tire at the right time
