I looked in FM7 for any kind of settings regarding pitstops.
Would be great to have at least two or more presets and choose which one each time you enter pitstop. Full or limited or something like that.
And define the limited stop or quick stop in detail what you want done. The rally games have plenty of that about repairs.
Don’t know about real world pitstops if they have warmed up tires you swap to - but I think that would be great option too. It takes some laps after a pitstop before being fully up to speed so to speak. It’s general recommendation tuning that you do some laps first being cautious. You loose a lot of time for that reason being in a live race starting with cold tires. And tire swap is almost mandatory you do.
Pretty much only F1 uses tire warmers and I think I read they’re going to get rid of them. Almost every other series puts on cold tires in the pits. Real life is the same, you have to wait until the tires are warmed up before going full tilt.
I see, thanks.
The more important then to have strategy options and maybe skip tire changes and just fix other things that are vital.
FM7 is a bit strange regarding how much engine issues you get as soon as you touch a wall or something. You have to enter pitstop first thing you dom but then also forced to change tires it seems.
Pitstops in FM7 are half done I think.
Half done I agree with.
Can’t remember if I saw a suggestion about improved pitstops but yes, would be welcome.
A MFD to allow you to change pitstop deets before stopping would be nice (think f1 series type MFD)
