Today I did a championship-race at Interlagos over 50% race distance
and was happy to finish 4th and get some points. But when I looked
at the results table I was only 7th! Though Michael Schumacher was
displayed as winner at the end of the race he was only 4th in the
table. Gianni Morbidelli (who was lapped) suddenly got 10 points!
Seems GP2 cannot distinguish between race leaders and lapped
drivers! As long as nobody is lapped everything is ok. I have the
german version 1.0b. Do you have the same thing in other versions?
Another silly question: How do I change my type of tires?
The german handbook does not mention anything about different
types of tires. I can choose between new tires used ones but the
type seems to depend on the circuit I am on. Am I just too stupid to
find that option or is it really not there?
Thanks for your help!

Bought GP2 this afternoon at Babbage's, Oakland Mall, Troy, MI (suburban
Detroit).
Initial impression: sounds awesome, VGA graphics are a bit
disappointing, SVGA is pretty, but not very playable on my P100
w/Imagine 128 (killer video card for Photoshop, not so good for games,
what to do?).

from***pit having crossed the finish line (I won!) and then
accelerate the time it moved me to last place but one, so now I just
keep on driving till the game fades for me.

I know what you mean, yesterday I finished 6th at Montreal, but then
in the results I was... 1 lap behind!!! This is strange, isn't it?

I was driving too at Interlagos and I was 6th. After the Finnish line I
saved a hot lap and after that my results was also changed. The GP
winner was 7th, 2nd was 8th and so on, I was 26? (I don't remeber
exactly but the results definetly changed).
I tried that twice after that and first time also results changed, but
last time the results was right.
So I don't know, did the hot-lap saving effect somehow, or when this bug
occurs???

I don't think you can change it. Nowadays Goodyear only bring one tyre
compound to different tracks.
