Is there such thing as a tyre wear indicator for GP2, like there was for GP1. Also is there a version of GPGAP which will tell you who the top say 6 drivers in the race are? Thanks MarkH World Motor Sport Schedules - [link lost in import: /~n6151060]

Yes, there is a tyre wear indicator. While in the pits, go to the setup screen. Then go to "Advanced" and then to "Inspect vehicle".

It shows plank wear and tire wear. -Dirt-

I was meaning like Trev Kellaways utility for GP1, where the tyre wear was displayed *during* the race. MarkH World Motor Sport Schedules - http://www.ncl.ac.uk/~n6151060

Yes, go to the pits, setup, advanced, inspect car. (This screen also shows the wear on the plank). d:~) #:~> **Peter**

No, there is no tyre wear indicator which can be used during the race, (as far as I know?) However, experienced drivers will be able to tell by the cars handling and the lap times how worn the tyres are. Or how much the tyre have gone "off". Also, if you indulge in plenty of testing, you can determine how long the tyres will last, starting with a full tank, and adjust your pit stop strategy as necessary to compensate. Tactics, tactics, oh the joys of Motorsport? d:~) #:~> **Peter**
I'm not sure which sim you guys are talking about, I might guess GP2 by the way you spell tire, but I know of at least one guy in England who drives ICR2. Anyway, in ICR2, you can press f5 during a race to see wear indicators. If you were refering to another sim...I can't help you. Later, Rick

Well now you know of two who play ICR2!. I only play it now and again for fun though, I stick to GP2 for the serious racing. Besides the fact that ICR2 cars always seem to crash into me at the first available opportunity. MarkH World Motor Sport Schedules - http://www.ncl.ac.uk/~n6151060
