Fuel Help

Recommended Posts

Hi

so on my Career i do the race strategy and get purple, i go round as fast as i can on Rich fuel.  (i used to do this on F1 17 and it never under fueled me)
now on this new one i do the same and i ALWAYS get under fueled by 10+ laps so every race ive had to put it in lean and do 30+ laps on lean to get into the plus so i can actually finish a race,
my cars so slow as its in lean all the time.
i then did a test run and completed the race strategy and went around in standard mix and got purple and i still was under fueled!! but this time its only by 2/3 laps on the fuel slider bar.
anyway of getting around this. is this a glitch as never happened on F1 17.
there is no logic to it. you think rag around the track and burn as much fuel as possible you would think you would have more fuel for the race, not under fuel the car!!!
can you upgrade the fuel tank or do i just have to not to that test and loss out on resource points
btw PS4 this is
thanks in advance

check the race strategy before you start the race

ii do check the race strategy before the race.
it says for example 53 lap race, tank is full and holds 40 laps of fuel. so the icon is warning me im under fueled for the race
so how is that possible that the tank is full but im really under fueled

I was going to say, that "of course it underfuels your car, when you blast through the practice program with rich fuel mix", but if what you said here is the case, then it has to be a bug of some sorts. Which, to be honest, really doesn't surprise me at all...
