Auto pitting a lap early?

So as you can see one driver automatically pit when he still had a laps fuel left and the other one didn't. Why is this? Push levels ARE NOT to blame here. When the driver who pitted a lap earlys pit light came on by itself, he was still on low push (1 or 2/5, I can't remember which), so a dev can not tell me that I pushed too early making it use more fuel etc .. He had more than enough (granted it was pushing it), what gives?

I think this also depends on his 'attributes' - in other words he makes poor decisions!

Well that could make sense I suppose... (he is a poorly trained level 10 driver at the moment with low everything except physical)... But in saying that this is a first for me since I started the game.

yeh I think it is an aspect of the game that a lot of people don't take into account.  It is difficult to explain how it works but some managers think there is a bug when actually the game is working as intended - they have a poor driver.

If all the game expected you to do was 'set up and go' there would be no challange in getting a good driver/staff/sponsors etc.

I am glad you understand this.  Some people have been very lucky with their staff and drivers and some (me!!) have not been so lucky, so I know what it is like.

It's what Jake said. Your driver can miscalculate how much farther he can go on the fuel he's got, and as a result can pit a lap early (or sometimes a lap late!).

Can any1 explain why following happened:
