this race couldn't measure hard degradation (noise fit) — the sim runs a typical 0.035s/lap instead, so long hard stints are priced approximately
mediums for 28 laps — nobody really ran them past 23; beyond that the model is extrapolating (no cliff modeled)
this race couldn't measure medium degradation (noise fit) — the sim runs a typical 0.040s/lap instead, so long medium stints are priced approximately
Rivals run their real races and don't react to you. Safety cars, stops and retirements reach you through the feed as they happen.
