I just race Spa and the race started while raining. The problem is that all the cars, including mine, were setup with dry tires, so at the end of lap 1 or 2 everybody was forced to go into pits to change tires. Did anyone reported this problem before?
Thanks

Yup, me too.

Think of it as the European GP of 2007, where everyone had to pit for wets at the end of lap 1, unless they missed the pit entry (Raikkonen) or were aiming to become a one-hit wonder (Markus Winkelhock!)

It can be solved by having a screen where you choose race strategy at the start of the race, like you do in qualifying. Obviously the computer cars will also need to be smart enough to fit wets on at the start if it's raining too...
