For future reference, your car will use about 0.7 litres of fuel per kilometer driven (varies with suppliers and push levels used). Sometimes less, sometimes more, but that value will get you pretty close.
Out of interest, what suppliers/push level is this figure based on?
All of them. During my time on the game I have used every supplier there is at one point or another. From my memory (which is admittedly poor), I've seen as low as 0.67 L/km (low push with good suppliers) and as high as 0.74 (high push with poor suppliers).
The best way to figure your own fuel consumption is to take it from your post-race data. Here's an example.
Take your initial amount of fuel (
55L in my case), and subtract from that the amount you had at the lap
of or before your first pitstop (the lap of if your pit box is after start/finish; the lap before if your box is before; here, mine is
5.7L on Lap 13). Divide the difference by the number of laps completed to that point (
13), and then divide that by the lap distance in km (
5.554 for Abu Dhabi).
((55 - 5.7) / 13) / 5.554 =
0.6828 L/km
This value will vary over the course of a season. You push harder at Monaco than you do at Brazil, and if you tend to run Hards that means higher push typically which also increases the average.
