The settings ranges it gives you is based upon the current conditions out there.

In the last race qualifying was dry, warm up was wet, race was dry. Here you could do one of 2 things;

1. For the warm up, calculate percentage change you needed to apply to your dry set up, make the change and then run the warm up to see if you could improve your set up. At the end of warm up, you would then need to recalculate the change needed to change the set up back to DRY for the race.

2. As you can see the above is a lot of work and it is easy to make mistakes. My preferred option was to skip the warm up altogether and just run the set up that I had in qualifying in the race.

But that still doesnt explain why when it was practice/qualify dry I used the same settings in the full wet and the data still became more accurate on the sliders, to match up with my dry practice, even though they should have been way out.

Also, so if you are in the dry and get a setting of 30-35, and then the next run is in the wet and you adjust the settings as needed, for example to 40-45, because you already have a high point of 35, but your new one is 45, is it true that there is no point doing the runs because it wont give you any new data?

No, it will give you data so that when you go back to dry from the wet it may help pinpoint what the right setting between 30-35. Note that it will only give you the wet range, it will be up to you to calculate what it should be for going back to dry.

My preferred solution is to crash in the first five laps of the race no matter what you do to the settings

Yeh! go FORCE INDIA!!! we honestly run our car on an extra hot rogan josh curry.... explains why i crash out a fair bit...

But it wont show you the range for the wet if you already have the sliders pretty close to spot on for dry. Right?

Now it was wet. And i have a range of 0-22 on rear suspension. It is steady rain, nearly fully wet i reckon. So for qualifying in the dry i would increase the setting by about 35 making the setting about 35-57.
But the sliders wont reset and give me a new value, so I have no idea where the correct setting is. Because it thinks it is still 0-22?

I ignore the sliders when the weather has changed. I prefer to set a base setting using whatever I get in Practice, then if there is a weather change in qualifying just calculate the required changes which should get you close. "Steady rain" is not fully wet, according to the following link you need to change your settings by 63% of the recommended amount.

As an example for qualifying, if your slider is saying 0-22, I would use 18 as the base setting. I would then apply 63% of the engineer's advice to 18 to get a dry set up.

I had not seen that page before, but it didnt matter.
The setup percentage estimate wasn't what was weird. It seemed that I didn't have to alter the data going into wet from practice/qualifying, because it was still giving me data that was correct and within the dry range. But then all of a sudden it was way out for the race. Ive played 7 games before but never seen it do this. So I don't care anymore.

Or maybe I have no idea
