Hey guys im puzzled, did my Q2 in this coming race with wet tyres, no risk taken, standard procedure as always, however i passed 11s behind the pole, which is weird as the track is supposed to be wet, in the Q1 our difference was 1.6s, am i missing something here or this track is dry?

The track's wet, so you're missing something. ;)

Either you accidentally went on dry tyres even though you thought you picked wets, or your driver is very bad in the rain (I actually think he's not too bad), or your car setup didn't suit the weather conditions at all.
Or you told your driver to take more risk than he could handle and he made a trip to the gravel trap at every corner. :P

If i could i would send you a print screen, i went on wet tyres and just instructed the driver to keep the car on track, not heavy, just saying because our difference on q1 was not that massive, there is another guy on my grid who also passed 11s slower on q2, will see what happens

Think driver mistake or your driver wasn't alright with your setup for Q2

i always use the same setup for wet&dry and never saw such massive difference in times like this one, maybe driver mistake but even that would not take so many seconds

If you go here /gb/Qualify2.asp
You actually can take a screenshot of your Q2 lap and it shows which tyres you ran I believe

10s sounds about right for qualifying with a dry setup in a wet track, GPRO is a bit harsh in this situation, real F1 cars run on fairly similar setups wet and dry without much laptime difference (nowhere near 10 seconds).

If you can see that you ran wet tyres, people will believe you :p
Obviously other factors that influence your lap time, if you chose the right tyres.

thanks Jessica, can find real explanation, driver has 89% energy, car has new improved parts, I'm not loaded on fuel, I will see how the cars performs at the race to have a better understanding...

you are welcome but energy at 89% doesn't influence the time .. there is another important stat but ... is FOBY i can't say anything more ^^ happy to help

Surely setup related.
Hefty fuel load and a DM may make some difference too, but the bulk of the time diff will be car setup.

Also I have the same questioning, I did my Q2 with rain tires, and there is a colleague who did the qualy I believe with the same rain tires and the difference was more than 10s faster, which is not possible in the game.

Because you're probably not the only one who doesn't know how to adjust the car setup for the weather conditions. Which is completely normal in Rookie. ;)
|
|
|
|
yes is normal ^^ and is good to see also track info to know which risks can be used ^^
i'm afraid to go on FOBY zone ahahahah ^^ but i think is generic :)

As already mentioned it could be a combination of reasons, and by process of elimination you should be able to workout what tthe main reason/s are?
But keep an open mind, just because things worked for you before doesn't mean they are always going to work so well on every track with different weather conditions.

It's quite odd really, you lose more time with a dry setup on a wet track than a wet setup on a dry track.

Well if it makes you feel better, I am 17sec slower, though I was 3,5 sec slower in Q1 already. I admit I am very surprised by this result..... But I guess that is part of learning :-/
Edit: Oh, and I did change setup from dry to rain. Though I admit I am not sure if I have the correct values.
