George,you're being too damn "lucky" today :D

the rain began a couple of laps after ppl pitted for es but a couple before those on softs... did the same a few races ago :( lol Clearly I was on es :P

Too many weather changes in that season. So that game changes into a fantasy manager... :(

its impossible to call. I give up.

Well I've been on XS and done 6 pit stops and come 2nd, the guy who's won the race has been on hards and done 3 pit stops. Totally different strategies, totally different fuel, and it's been really brilliant to watch.

well this is my first season, i dont expect to be a front runner or something but i start wondering what kind of strategy game this is :D
its kinda russian roulette so far, with a gun full of bullets.. hahaha

This has been the worst season for weather, with wet & dry quilafying and dry and wet races since i have been playing. The whole season has been pot luck with the race strats.

A normal race .... ahhh , miracle... next races? wet, wet and wet???
|
|
|

Why bother to have a forecast with minimums and maximums when the actual conditions regularly go outside those parameters?

I like wet, wet and wet. If it's wet, dry, wet-dry, wet, dry wet dry, wet, that's when I get a bit anxious :P

In the last race the minimum humidity for the first forecast sector was 69%, the race started at 68% then dropped to 66% on lap 4, then again it dropped below the minimum forecast on lap 49.
This happens regularly in wet races.

Well... it takes some time, and probably some serious though put into it before getting properly familiar with the weather system and the strategies possible in different kind of races.
all in all a weather model like we now have makes it possible for us to be in a position where the ability to read the forecast and adjusting strategies to the prediction can make a difference in the race results.
So... I'd say that it will pay off to give it some thought

My idea for a weather strategy is a simplified version of what we have.
For example, the rain starts on lap 15, and stops on lap 42. The weather forecast would say something along the lines of:
RAIN TO START AT LAP 17 +/- 3 AND RAIN TO STOP AT LAP 38 +/- 7.
meaning the rain would start within 3 laps of 17 (14-20) and stop within 7 laps of 38 (31-45).
This would mean that people could gamble on how far into the 'window' the rain would start and plan their strategy from that. Just a thought, sorry if it's been said before :/

If weather could be predicted so accurately in such a small margin, any global problems with it would be solved. IMO

Just an example, could be anywhere up to +/- 12, maybe? It was just a thought, anyway :)

watch the weather, there are usually wrong sometimes right but generally average out and close.

Quote ( Herry Sebastian Pratama @ January 23rd 2013,12:23:29 ) Just put less possible fuel in every stint
and lets hope our "skill" is working to change the weather in every 15 lap.. and win!
well please dont do this if you dont have enough skill :P
Looks like my "skill" working great last night lol
Did six stops.. but got my first ever fastest lap and won the race! ;O))
