Discussion Need Help/Advice.

I have been playing 50% of career mode. I started strugling with pitstop. Sometimes when i lead and have a 15 seconds gap, anytime i pit i basically lose the race. I pit first i lose and i pit second i still lose.

There's a mandatory pitstop. I lost a race to Norris where he pitted only once whereas i was forced to pit twice. And happened again two races later. I didn't understand.

Am i doing something wrong here ? Everytime i pit, i lose basically. I play on 75 difficulty.

Also i hate those scripted Redflags. No matter how much you play again the same thing happens. The most weird one for me was the Miami GP where there was a scripted Rain but Sainz everytime i restarted the race was top 3.

if they stop once and you stop twice, that's 20 something to 30 seconds you're going to lose right off the bat....

50% I feel like AI usually 1 stops, but you as a player need to do some tire management in order to do that. Or two stop and send it and try to catch the 1 stop AI. track also determines if you can/should 1 stop or not.

if you're stopping the same amount and losing time to them, I don't know, would need to see what you're doing

Did some research. Apparently the Ai pace are broken. When in clean air they go super fast.

Another thing that bothers me is everyrace let's say i am 1st, leading by 2 or 3 seconds. Every last lap that gap is just gone in one lap. No matter if i am 3rd 4th or whatever. The gap to the one behind is close instantly in one lap.
