Changing tactic during F12002 (EA) race?

Game: EA F12002 If I have scheduled for example two stops (60lap race, stops after 20 and 40laps), and then due to the loss of wing or weather change I have to pit earlier (for example 3-4 laps earlier than scheduled), how I can inform the team to put more fuel (or wet tyres), instead of chosen choices at the start of race? Any way to override the choices during the race? Or even more deeper...can you put your team to adjust your wing settings (as in real life they nowadays do)? Thanks for any further clarifications! -- .mikko /* reality is an illusion, that occurs due to the lack of alcohol */

Change your steering wheel LCD display mode (enter key is default) to the pit settings and use the arrows on your keyboard to scroll the options and change the values. Change from that screen before you pit or your pit crew won't start the work. -- Ian P <email invalid due to spammers>

i have 4 buttons on my wheel, one to change the led screens the next to scroll down the options on each screen and the bottom two assigned to increase or decrease. One thing to keep in mind. I haven't dug into this enough, but if you want to use hard tires you must practice some with them. otherwise it will default to soft tires(and the rain tires) only. So it is in your best interest to load up both a hard tire and soft tire setup during practice. dave henrie

Unless you're using 4x wear, or are overcooking your tire temps, I wouldn't waste my time with hard tires. Seems to me you can run softs for an entire race if you really wanted, there's so little tire wear. Jason

I've got the LCD assigned to a button on my wheel, I can prepare far easier for a F1C pitstop than I can a N2003 which requires multiple F key presses, arrows and space bar. -- Ian P <email invalid due to spammers>

No, I can still fight with the AI cars(well, at least Minardi, Arrows, and Toyota). I only have the strength set to 75%. :-) Eldred -- Help find missing child: Tatianna Ashley Chillcutt from Michigan(info on my homepage) Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett Remove SPAM-OFF to reply.

I'm screwed. I only have 2 buttons on my wheel, and they're used for gear change. So, I get to reach over/around the wheel and futz with the keyboard. Joy...
