I just bought the X2010 (non Vettel) and I realized that the PP was higher with more weight, then after adding more weight it went down again.

Example:

545kg 968pp

555kg 970pp
565kg 971pp
575kg 971pp
585kg 971pp
595kg 971pp
605kg 970pp
615kg 969pp
625kg 968pp


Is there a logic reason for this or is it just a small glitch in the PP system?

Edit:

Just realized that the same goes for power

1513hp 968pp

1482hp 974pp
1452hp 978pp
1422hp 979pp
1392hp 981pp
1361hp 981pp
1331hp 982pp
1301hp 982pp
1271hp 982pp
1240hp 981pp
1210hp 981pp
1180hp 980pp
1150hp 980pp
1119hp 979pp
1089hp 978pp
1059hp 977pp
1028hp 975pp
998hp 974pp
968hp 972pp
938hp 971pp
907hp 969pp
877hp 967pp


I drained over 600hp without loosing a single PP.

Side note: I just found out that a car can get to 1000 PP. I thought 999 was max :)

With the aerodynamics full downforce gives 999pp but if you lower the front downforce it will go to 1000pp.
 
I think the reason for the PP is that it rules in Weight Distribution. But I'm confused why it'll go up again after adding 100kg of ballast. I think it'll have something to do with its drivetrain (MR). And the power limiting, the downforce promotes almost all of the car's performance, so that most likely leaves the PP regulated.
 
I have noticed that handling/driveability is taken into account in the pp. Take the TVR speed 12. Same thing, add weight, pp gain, reduce power, pp gain. I would suggest doin laptimes to see if there is any change there...
 
The PP system is designed to cap itself at 1000, which the X1 is designed to reach. Depending on what the PP formula is mathematically, some crazy things might be going on at its extremes (0? and 1000).

Also putting a ballast in the center of the car might help with its moment of inertia, though I doubt the X1 would have a "dumbell" MOI.
 
It also depends on what the car is "built" with. For instance, you can add an ECU and take away the power gained with the power reducer, but the PP will still be higher than stock because of the ability the ECU gives you. The power and weight aren't the only factors. I don't know why the transmission, clutch, etc. aren't figured into this knowing that information.
