oh I think I figured it out how to calculate the OA now as well. With a bit of algebra I should have a definite solution shortly.
What are people doing for strategy? I am going to use the hard tyres but I do not have much info on them.
Chrispa76 sorry mate i missed spelt ur name, i knew u were a guy lol. im impressed christian if u worked out the TI and Exp combo. i had no idea exp effects its vital info. if u could work out the oa situation would be good also but im not sure weather itll wrk for every driver but wrk it out and if it wrks with everyone here then uv hit jackpot. u could prove to be a good comodity. how did u go with ur new driver? whats his stats like? Happyal if u wanted to like Christian said u could still manage his oa and towards the end of the season go minus 15 mil to drop his oa right down but its dangerous grounds iv done it before and it didnt wrk out but that was more towards the start of the season. if u choose to go for a driver id recomend gettin a driver with high concentration. Christian has decided to go with high talent which will be interesting to see but in rookie the one thing iv noticed from popular bids and goin as far as puttin them on shortlist to see how the driver goes with his new manager and always ends up coming 1st, 2nd or 3rd with high concentration. i recently bought a new driver with high concentration so ill be a ble to tell u how he does. El Bando what sorta driver u get. what r his stats? Mifune i havnt done any calclating yet but will start lookin now. i think i might have some good data but will have to work it out first. i think hard tyres will be the choice tho with a 2 stop will check.
I would say a 2 stop with the hard tyre, 1 stop is not possible here. 2 stop with the medium tyre is maybe possible but too risky for me to try. As for fuel loads, I am going 82, 82, 84, though I might go for a longer first stint to get a bit of clear track when everyone pits.
I screwed up so bad. I just did Q1 on supersofts because im used to doing that from another F1 sim browser game (batracer.com) forgot I cant change for the race
Yeah that is what I was thinking so good. For fuel I have calculated (from Fuji testing data) that I will need about 251lts which is basically the same as what ModestMatt has said so seems correct.
dnt forget that singapore is alil longer then fuji. and also dnt do anything yet coz my teammates think theyrs a small chance itll last on mediums. what are ur engine levels?
my new driver: http://www.gpro.net/gb/DriverProfile.asp?ID=2188 not sure if he is good or not but we will see...
I can only get 25 laps from the medium tyre on Fuji before they are at 0% (medium tyre wear and 4.558km lap). You need 21 laps on the medium in Singapore (high tyre wear 5.067km lap) for them to hold up plus you lose time when wear is below 20%. I still think the medium tyre is that little bit too risky and you may find yourself pitting with 3-5 laps to go. My engine level is at 350 for Singapore.
Mifune so my teammates said theres a possibility that u ight have about like 3 percent tread left with medium but wouldnt be woth it as ud lose too much time when ur tyres start degreading bad as apposed to hard tyres that are consistent. with the fuel i compared it to both fuji and valencia. fuji's humidity was 80 percent but is a bit shorter and valencia is 1 km longer but was 25 percent. fuji was 260 lires with 80 percent humidity and valencia was 248 with 25 percent humidity. so i think u guys are pretty accurate with ur fuel amount but u might want to add maybe an extra 10 litres on ur final stint to be sure. singapore is 17 second pit in/out so that will be perfect for a 2 pitstop strategy
Im doing a safe race again this time, to get my money under control. Buenos airways was high wear and 4.258 per lap @ 23 laps max on mediums.
El Bando i cnt see the stats properly coz u cnt check while there contracted. copy and paste it onto here. the one thing i see wrong so far is that he is very old and will lose attributes aftr every race. its good as it keeps his oa down but not good in races. then again he might have superb other attributes to make up for it. but ill have to see.
Sportydan What where the humidity averages for both Buenos Aires? TheModestMatt What was humidity for fuji? and also i mean what level is ur engine at in tyre wear section not what ur running ur engine at
You sure about that fuel usage? I need a total of about 265L for the race and my engine level is at 1.. or maybe that's the reason. And I am comparing with Fiji as I have no data from anywhere else. Guess I am kinda screwed since my super rofts will only last 15 laps on fuji so shouldn't be possible even with 6 stints..
My engine level is 2. I do not think the mediums will hold up for a two stopper; it is high tyre wear and it is very hot so I do not think they will be able to last long enough for a two stopper. I accounted for the different lengths; I just worked out how many litres per km it was, which for me is 0.82lt/km.
My fuel consumtion per KM in fuji is ~0,842 humidity 39% I dont know exactly how the humidity will affect the consumption but ignoring that I will need 260.3L fuel for the race (0.482*309,1)
Christian theres alot of things that affect fuel like humidity, engine level, engine use. i did a few track comparissins and with low fuel usage it seems that the less the humidity the more the fuel where as with medium fuel usage, the more the humidity the more the fuel wich i fond interesting. engine level 2 uses less fuel than engine level 1 and engine level 3 uses less then engine level 2 and so on. how did u wrk it out? if u worked out that extra soft will take u 15 laps and ur ratio is correct and ur using 265 litres u could make it a 3 stop with 67 litres per stint. for a three stopper ur extra softs should take u to 15.25 laps but if not not ull end up pittin with like 1 or 2 laps left
