The 2x on fuel makes it rewarding to be slow or save fuel the whole race, which could be fine but that looked like extreme saving when i tried it. Yesterday i was consuming 5.5 per lap at least, sometimes more, and was already short shifting a lot in some parts of the track. Frankly i don't really understand how you can save about 1l per lap and still finishes, and i mean while still being competitive, cause doing it very slowly, coasting and all, ok. Yesterday i won doing two pit stops but this was like a miracle, came out of the pits 2 or 3s ahead of P2 with shot tyres since i couldn't swap tyres a second time or i would have lost by a landslide no matter what pace or laptimes. Also i dodged the bonus lap for 2s on purpose, i would have probably ran out of fuel as well, even after a 30l refuel and 2x86l.
So i don't know, maybe on some other tracks it's not much of a strategy and likely you would run out of batteries before fuel with tracks that have long straights, but clearly if to win you need to drive like that all the series for an hour, not sure it's going to be really fun. Specially when you have a 1000hp car to race with.
