The pace of the morning (40 deg asphalt) was very fast 13.6 (I do also the second fastest lap in 13.4) but at midday and after (more than 50 deg) I only managed to do a pace of 14sec.
What I should do in this situation?
this is my set up.
Did the grip increase or decrease as the track got hotter? And what changed with the car, did it start to push more or did it overheat tyres?
