Default Tips - Orders to drivers

When the tires are brand new (Quality =100%) their temperature for the first lap will always be high.
So, in the beginign of the race or after you change the tires, either do not give any orders to your drivers for at least one lap, or give them the order "pace yourself" for at least one lap.

While in the qualifing sesion I am using the order:
"do or die" for my drivers to get good possition.
This will make them to drive like crazy but the possibility for accident is high, so there should be no near by cars.

"Step on it" will make your drivers to drive fast, but the tires will wear off faster and if they do it for a lot of laps the tires will either overheat, or uderheat.

"Pace yourshelf" is the order you can give to a driver for the whole race.
He may not drive very fast, but he will always take care of the tires temperature and condention. This advantage may give you the win of the race.

"Easy off" will make your drivers to go as slowly as they can, but they may still win the race. I use it rarelly and when my car is at bad condition, but I want my driver to finish the race.

I do not use the other orders often to tell you thei usage, but I think they may affect the bonus the drivers get at the end of the period. Ussually my drivers get a star in quiqness and reliability.
