Hello, I encountered a weird bug in a race today. ID is 19895532.

I had set up Intermediate tire stints for the race. My drivers qualified 1st and 2nd using Intermediate tires, but on the race everything defaulted to Medium tire stints which completely ruined things and they finished 15th and 16th.

Could this be looked at to avoid the same problem in the future? Thank you.

Reported to the developer team. I'll keep the topic open to report updates on this problem/bug.

Hello, I had a similar bug at today’s race.

I had a strategy starting with a wet tyre but at the qualifying the tyres changed to intermediets. The same problem appeared at the race, I started on intermediates instead of wets. The same thing happenned to many teams at my league.

Could you please do something with that bug, to avoid it in the future.

Thank you,
Áron

It appears it happened to almost everyone else in my league as well. Those who were online for the race had to take an extra pit stop to put on the right tires, those of us that were away weren't so lucky :P

Thank you for reporting the problem to the developer team, Jose. There had been several issues with rain recently and many people in my league are unhappy with the new system as well, apart from the bugs.

Talking about this bug with the developers they told me that this error in your race should be related to yesterday's server failures. It shouldn't happen again.  About the problems with the rain, we are aware and we are still working on it, it is very complex. I’m very sorry for the inconvenience this may cause.

Today Hungary gp in IGP7 SUPERFAST: dry race. I (manager: Dick Bastardly, team: Minardi) has a strategy with Soft tyres in the first stint but I qualified with Intermediate (a lot of cars put Intermediate but some cars qualified with Soft or Medium).
I change tyres in the 1th lap and select SuperSoft but the software puts Medium. After some laps, I try to change tyres but when I select (a lot of time) Medium, after a moment the software change in Intermediate (continuously)!
What’s happened???
A lot of other cars put Intermediate in dry race!
Thanks.

We're you using the App or PC version? What were your main and advanced strategy settings? Was it raining at the start of the race? Was there any water on the track? During the race where did you make the tyre selection for the next stint, in the strategy tab at the top of the screen (the one that allows you to set both cars) or the individual strategy tabs for each car (the ones at the bottom of the screen).
I ask these questions because I've never experienced this bug in all the time I've played the game and I'm trying to understand if it's random or something to do with the way I play the game.

Hello guys!


As it mentioned the whole pro tier was suffering because of it in our league (id=25264). Can you please give the guys something as a compensation? I'm sorry for that but there was an other issue with the game last night and I missed the race re-run option. That's a shame of me as a host.

I use App in Iphone. The advanced strategy was with 0,2mm I and SS after 2 laps. At start no rain and no water on the track. During the race I use booth the command to change tyres but no one works!

I had set up everything on a PC. I had no advanced settings because last time it rained it did funny stuff :P I wasn't online for the race though. It was raining already before the race and kept raining until the end.

I simply set up my stints with Intermediate tires and went away. Up until qualifying, no problems, drivers qualified using Inters. When the race started, it defaulted to medium tires and completely different stints, exactly as it would be if I hadn't set up anything before the race. Others in my league had the same thing happen to them. Jose said something got reset before the race so I doubt it has anything to do with play style, though not sure.

If it just stopped raining prior to the start it explains the tyres, since you left advanced settings on default the tyre for that eventuality has the medium one preselected. Doesn't change fuel amount though, so have you set up quite different lengths of stints, you know that the amount of litres is different from the ones you set up or could it just be that the quite changed fuel consumption of mediums on a still wet track is responsible?

Quite a surprising number of races lately with weather changes in between Qualification and Race though.

It rained for the whole duration, never stopped. Also yes, my stints were completely different. It happened to everyone in my race.

Is anybody who described this problem still experiencing the issue?
