Driver errors are coded into the game and can't be disabled at a league level. The only people that can disable them are the Devs and if they do they are disabled for everyone.

I know some managers have run many tests in private leagues, gathering a lot of data to determine what is the best design balance for each circuit, currently this is the only way you can do it. But remember you can also use engine tuning to optimise research, and that very much depends on how the other managers in your league develop their cars.

That's what I thought. Thanks for your help. 

I still there is scope to have more test runs or maybe managers could carry unused ones onto the next race and maybe they get reset at the end if the season. Just a thought. ?

I would really like it the practice runs were not random, but more indicative of real lap times for the drivers.  It would make a difference in choosing compounds based on time lost in relation to other tires and whether the time lost in pitting would be made up with the faster tire.

That makes so much sense. But... ?

I would like to be able to set push and fuel amount for each practice lap.

Why would you like to be able to set fuel load for a practice lap?  I’m struggling to see how this is of any benefit?

If driver errors were turned off being able to set fuel load would be good for data gathering.

You could do one lap with 10L, then another four on the same tyres with same settings each time incrementing the fuel by +10L. This would allow you to understand exactly how much lap time a litre of fuel costs you without any other variables such as tyre wear and track evolution clouding the issue.

But, like everything else in practice, it can only give reliable results if you can discount the possibility of driver error.

5 pratice lap if the race is dry
10 pratice lap if the race become wet?

what about that?

something like more pratice laps if the weather changes could be ok

Like I said earlier in the thread, just do your practice laps within 10 mins of lockdown and you’ll get all the data you need for the most accurate conditions in the race.
