The introduction of the AI Setup option is a really good thing, it allows for different cars to start on different tyres. What I think could be implemented now is a "Set Strategy option" so you can program a driver's race strategy. I also think there could be a "Change strategy" option so say if there is a safety car midrace, then the strategy can be changed midrace to accommodate the safety car.
It would be more useful if they first even would bring feature to set player strategy, including tire compound choices for pit stops.
