Anyone completed a 50 lap race with AI? Wondering if that will prompt fuel/tire pit stops for the AI?!
I don’t know about AI, but I ran ten laps on the Nurburgring without pitting (simulation damage) and ran out of gas and the car wouldn’t drive anywhere so I quit the race. I’m sure the AI would also run out of fuel and have to pit…
They should have to pit but at the pace they are running at the AI could run for an hour or more without needing to stop. You really can stretch a fuel stint in this game by short shifting and lifting before the corners.

They do pit- 50 lap race on LeMans.

Only fuel issues cause AI to pit, they run their tyres until they’re on the rims.
Yeah but is there any difference… it seems to me they still ride the rail pretty good after 15 -20 laps at Sebring or Road Atlanta… and Road America
I was wondering the very same thing because I was planning on doing a 50 lap race against AI racers. Thanks for posting the info fellas.

Wish there was a simple setting in the race menu to force a required pit. Seems like it would be so easy to implement. Pit Requirement - yes/no if yes, number of pits required but put that in code talk 
depends on the cars used. if you can stick them in an aeriel atom they’ll run out of gas quickly. in the chevy indy car i ran the tires off before i ran out of gas on the indy oval (over 80 laps) in the 2.4 hors of lemans i could have made in in one stop with the ferrari.
I do believe the AI is very finicky when it comes to the wear of tires and you will likely seem the pit at least a couple of times within a 50 lap race. Add in the fact that I think they tend to pit as soon as they incur damage and it may even be stopping more than one normally would.
