Yes, you are saying the same thing. Anyway, I saw in the last races of my last championship that It was always the same id to begin the qualy, exactly as before. 

Thx Joao, exactly what I was trying to say

I haven't described any exit order, I'm asking what you tried to mean with this expression.

1st driver exits from the pit, does qualy lap and then boxbox, 2nd driver exits from the pit, does qualy lap and then boxbox etc. It's only the imagination of how the code works in the reality. Each time the code runs to simulate a qualy lap is like a driver that does like I've just described(or something like that I think).

some news?

only a pole last season and 6 in the last 77 races; the current qualifications system is obsolete.

Hi....unfortunately nothing has changed, everything remains the same, with the same grid problems, with teams favored and disadvantaged always

But are qualifications like quick races? Is it possible that in qualifying the level of the car and the driver are the same for everyone? In qualifying I often start behind managers with inferior cars and clearly inferior drivers (even in driving skills), How is it possible?

I typically find that the first few races of a new season i'm always behind in qualifying compared to lower lvl managers (especially after winning or coming in top 3 of championship) due to a larger amount of car stats being lost but come closer to the top, or qualify mid to low order but the times are in hundredths of a second, when cars stats become closer.

Sorry Gustavo but I cannot understand what is your problem with my post. And Joao explained exactly what I was trying to say. 
I wrote "I mean the order in which cars exit from the pit lane (out lap) in order to do their quali lap". Also Jack told us that each car has the fuel in order to do three laps (out lap - quali lap - in lap). So, I assume that a driver has to exit from the pit-lane to do a timed lap.
But I think that we have to focus on the only important thing:
the order in which the teams get on track in qualifying has remained unchanged.
Why?
But probably we'll have the Circuit of Santiago de Compostela before having an answer ?

I now wonder how the fuel is calculated for those 3 laps. Is it fixed to 3 laps from finish line to finish line or is there a chance that pit location or such might mess things up, possibly giving some cars an extra litre, or some cars like the number 1 an extra lap of fuel even (as some differences described here in the thread can't be just the weight of one single litre)?

Also reading about actually doing the in lap I'm now wondering about tyre temperature, because 2 laps on medium push isn't the best way to treat super softs on some tracks, though that one should at least affect everyone about the same.

Though if Qualifying laps are as completely mixed up as my Training laps today then wild results are to be expected, however that wouldn't explain why certain numbers or teams have always booked bad luck, just gaps in between the own drivers.

We have to believe in Jack's word, if he says it's now random, it is random.



Frank now brought a very interesting question how is the fuel calculated for those 3 laps ?

Then, pit stop order should also be randomised in order to see that effect on qualifying laps

Yes, we have to believe in Jack but refreshing the page during the Quali it shows the same order as before...

hmmmm   I know you can see qualifying "in progress", but that's something I never do.

Very interesting.

I started a short time ago, but I was curious, since in my league there are also questions of this kind. I did an analysis with a small sample, and the only difference between maximized teams, top drivers, same type of tires, is the STAFF. Apparently who uses doctor talent 1 (lower cost), always falls behind who uses doctor 18,19 etc.

I think the qualify takes into consideration the rating of the 3 STAFF members. 

So for qualify:

-Driver Rating
-Team desing
-Staff rating

Could anyone look into your leagues too?

Thanks, and I'm sorry if that made no sense. Again, i did with a small sample.

I disagree. In my league (and in many others) top 2 players have level 2 half star doctor and usually stay on top of the qualy

I look your last qualify (hungrie) and proves what i said.

The 1st used SS ok, but the rest used S tyres.

From 2nd and 11th have only one guy who have a DR Low level (7th) and the others 9 have DR 17+. 12th and behind have pratically only teams with low level DR.

Hello, I have tried the Doctor improvement with another account but unfortunately this does not seem to have any impact

Why would a better doctor help qualifying time ?

If the race simulator was considering our staff, race pace would have been affected as well.

Perhaps I missed it somewhere in this thread but does your FE matter for qualify? Since you are loaded with 3 laps of fuel (or 2 laps when you are on your actual hot lap), that could make for quite a significant difference in lap times.

Or does all managers use the same FE value for quali?

Yep, you missed that :)
