Hi there, I was playing aroung with GP2 last night, after a long break from the game....when I came upto the screen where you look at the plank & tire wear. On the bottom it said 'Tyre compound: A'. I rememberr F1GP having options to change the compound, but haven't seen a similar option on GP2. Is there one, and am I missing it somewhere? R

I think you can change it with the PGP Track Pack, but i'm not certain! -- Dave Bowers
In 1994, the teams had no choice but to accept what Goodyear brought to the Grand Prix. Eric

The 1994 season didn't feature different tire compounds to choose from...

Well it did really because Goodyear had four differnt tyre compounds to choose from that year A,B,C,D they would take according to the characteristics of the circuit, but all teams did use the same compound of tyre. MarkH

According to the editor that comes with the track pack from IA the cc cars are using A,B and C compounds at various tracks in GP2. D is listed but no tracks are using it. All the teams use the same compound at any track. Mike. -- 06:48 on 11/12/97 From sunny Herne Bay, Kent.UK. mailable also at remove NO-SPAM to mail me.
The reason you can not choose tire compounds in GP2 is that the teams themselves couldn't choose tire compounds that year. It was Goodyear that chose which tires to bring and so the game follows that. Torgeir
