Typically it's driving style, but a bad setup can do that, too. The
fastest setup in the race should be different from the one for
qualifying. The qualifying setup is usually a bit more loose, nervous,
and tends to wear out the rears quickly. Use a bit less front wing on
races, and lower that differential lock (I have mine on 0 for races).
Try driving just below the tyre chirp. All this should contribute to the
longevity of the tyres. Your laptimes will be lower than in qualifying,
but that's life.

How do I manage to make a set of tyres last more than 8 laps ?
I've been using the hard compound at Australia and they seem
to go off very quickly. I don't think it's my driving style but could

I thought you had to choose a tyre compound at the beginning
of a race meeting in F1 and stick to it. - Pick and stick. In F1 2000
it seems you can change at any stage through the race weekend -
strange.
I seem to have a problem with some cars displaying no front wheels,
this seems to be random, could it be a lack of memory ? Only got 64
meg :( Anyone else with this problem ?
