In the current Brazil GP, one of my drivers gets the hard compound in the pits instead of the wet ones, which were scheduled. I tried to pit once more - again hard tires. The other driver is doing fine, pittet him for wets, no problem. Anyone else experiencing this?

Hi Christian, if you could post the race ID, that would be a great help

Did you leave the 'use weather strategy' option on? That could be the reason, because it overrules your pit strategy if I'm correct.

If you select unscheduled stop and press PIT then your pit crew will do the work listed on the "Next Stop" row no matter what - even if you have Follow Weather Strategy selected. If you don't manually pit this way, then your weather strategy can override the "Next Stop" settings. This is a bit confusing I realise, and I'm going to be making some changes to how it works. In particular, the "Next Stop" row will be adjusted so it will always show the work that is just about to be done to the car.
So as far as I can see from the logs, most of the pit stops you mentioned were ordered as manual unscheduled stops. Because of this your pit crew will have done the work that you had listed on the "Next Stop" row. I don't have any logs of what you had selected there so I can't verify if this part of the system was working correctly in your situation.
However it looks like there is a problem where your driver Nakamura pitted on his 3rd stop. In that situation you didn't have "Unscheduled Stop" selected so your weather strategy should have been taken into account and he should have fitted Intermediates. I'll investigate why he didn't.
