Just completed the Super Series 2 and got promoted to Elite tier and got the messages saying the 4A spec components have been fitted to the car and the evaluation of the team/driver standings (i.e. 4th in constructors is not good enough but 3rd for one of my drivers is good, and the other driver wants to finish in the top half next season.)
But then I got a second set of emails saying the 5A components have been fitted to the car and that finishing 8th out of 9 teams is not good enough. It seems that immediately after promotion it seems that I have completed a season in the Elite tier as well...?
AND to top it off I have a certain %age (pretty decent stored up for next seasons car) and I am reset back to 1% now because of this error.

Hmm, I'm quite surprised that this is the first we have heard of this after all the testing and leagues so far. The circumstances required don't seem that rare. I have applied a patch to prevent this from happening again.
Do you know what level your current season designs were at? I can set them manually, but the old data is gone, so please be honest. :D

Strange that it reset the car development twice though. Just to add more info - I got the 2nd round of emails after the message from iGP saying I've been promoted; so maybe this is to do with when the Elite tier's race ended or something?
Another bug: Went to comment on my drivers and it says that I cannot comment on them until 39 races have passed?! Shouldn't this be 5?

That is exactly what it was as far as I can tell, the timing of when the elite race ended and you joining the league. I have restored your designs to where they should be.
The second issue may well have been because I was rebuilding all data at that time (so your race count was being built back up etc.). There would have been a period of about 1 minute where I could imagine it saying something like you describe. Does it still say 39 races?

All sorted, thanks! Yeah, it says 3 races now - all good. :)
