Make the ss slower

I think the ss are powerfull,are so fast.In a league with refuelling you can win using only ss tyres on some track,like europe(i think it is valencia),monaco and probably more.If the league has the tyre rule you cn do ss ss ss ss ss ss ss s or with no tyre rule just doing ss ss ss ss ss ss ss.You can win with 7 pit stops and the p2 to have a 4 stop you win x3 pit stops time.i think the ss tyre is too fast.I think a slower ss tyre will be better,like 0.5-0.6s faster than s ,not 1s.

I think the pace is about right at the moment. All tracks should be different and while I’ve seen all SS work well in Europe, particularly when it’s cold I’ve seen it lose out to softs and in very high temperatures even mediums can be usable.

On other tracks supersofts are barely usable at all even in refuelling (Italy for example).

Tyre balancing is an incredible delicate operation in this game, you have to consider two different race formats (RF/NRF) and 4 different race distances (25/50/75/100).

Tracks with shorter pit lanes tend to favour strategies with more stops and softer tyres, Europe and Monaco are two of the shortest I can think of, while those with longer pit lanes, Austria, Spain, Italy) favour harder compounds.

If you made supersoft tyres much slower you would quickly find they would never be used anywhere and may as well not exist. So I’m against this personally.

Probably is now is the best if we talk about the strategy because we have races with 3+pits and i understand if will be boring if it will like real f1 to have M H,S M S,M H H etc. Strategies.I suggested that because it will make the game more realistic,tbh idk a motorsport where we have 4-6 pit stops in a 300km race :)

Just to play devils advocate. A common criticism in the past has been that formula one is boring, and over the years there have been plenty of attempt to increase the number of stops the cars make (including the current tyres which the drivers all pootle around delicately keeping in the best possible temperature window). They all fail because usually it’s quicker to make less stops.

Now I’m not going to comment about saying whether or not 4-6 stops is realistic or not but would it be fun if races at all distances were 1/2 stop maximum?

In the 100% NRF races the maximum number of stops tends to be 4, and I imagine F1 fans and organisers would be pretty happy if we had 4 stop races. Was it Qatar where it was an enforced 3 stop last year and a lot of people found it pleasing?

I want more pit stops in real f1,but here,not sure i think if they will make the hard a bit faster like 0.1/0.2 per lap it will be very good,why i can't have the same pace on lvl 5 pushing(H tyre) vs a lvl 1 push(ss tyre),i think 3-4s between H and SS is too much
