I set the fuel usage to x4 and ran a 25% race in a champoionship, but it
didn;'t appear to make any difference. I was expecting to have to make
pitstops for fuel - trying to simulate a full length race. Does anyone know
if this is a general fault or have I got somjething set wrong ?

This is from the readme at www.simmods.com:

Fueluse:
--------

Unfortunately, F1-2002 guesses fuel use off throttle position and RPM's when
the AIW (AI line) is constructed. Since the NGT's run a higher RPM range
than most of the GTs, the Laps the game calculates that you will make in a
GT car is off by 30% or so. It will under estimate the laps, so it's safe
you won't run out of fuel. The NGT's are accurate. ISI is working to make
this more flexible in future releases.

There's a thread and a possible fix at the simmod forum, I haven't tried it
myself yet:
