This game is bullshit sometimes. I decided I needed more of a challenge so I turned a few options on, a few off and notched up the difficulty to hard. Went into a race at Monza and was enjoying Practicing and tuning the car. My first session ended kind of weirdly, driving along and my left rear tyre blew, somehow totaling my car (red screen) and ending the session. Fair enough I guess, but it was only my 3rd lap on those tyres, I wasn't over gravel or anything like that and there was no debris, I was the only car on the track.
I carry on anyway, get through Practice 2 just fine and move on to Practice 3. A few laps in and guess what.. the exact same shit happens again on the same corner, except to the front left tyre. This time my car wasn't totaled, but again there was no reason for it. I told myself it was because I was driving too hard, perhaps.
I struggle through Qualifying and because of penalties I got in Practice, I get thrown back to 24th. 3 laps in and yup, same corner, same blown tyre. Something is wrong with the game, I don't know if it's just that corner of Monza or if the game blows your tyres silly amounts when you turn the difficulty up, but somethings wrong and I'm taking a break.
In the case that it is the corner and others want to test it, I don't know the corners name but it's the one that leads into the slalom just before the big straight, final big turn and final straight.
