I think like that two but , go check on the ranking on the seasonal event against the clock , the top 20 players are using confort soft , insted of sport hard , whys that?
Because the Softs warm up better, Hard sports have greater grip but because on a hot lap they dont warm up that fast, the Comforts are the greater choice.
Takes about 2 laps on Cape Ring just to get the Sport Hards warm enough to run a good lap time, Comfort Softs are probably better for the first lap tries so you can jump in out and test different tuning settings quicker would be my guess.
