I have to check but I think so yes :) side by side for half a lap, it was so awesome I wasn't even mad he won the duel in the end! Honestly my favorite moment was watkins glen where I was chased by @ProjectPD and @Puffpirat before they both lost it front of me making a huge smokescreen :eek: after that I realized "I'm on the podium and 2 aliens are out". I lost it a few laps later... after chasing @Elodyr for the rest of the race I attacked him in the very last corner and we drag raced to the finish line. Damn I wanna race again :)
I am pretty sure, it was @Antony Brown. The other red Aston was me and you can see in your video that you went passed me very easily :p

Would you guys say it is a big problem if after driving a few laps one wheel doesn't heat up compared to the others?

Sometimes you have no choice, if the track is always turning one way you can't get away with it. You could adjust your driving style by scrubbing the cold tyre excessively when turning in that direction but I doubt it wont hurt your lap times. I'd say go softer if you can or suck it up ;)

Depends on the circuit, if there are far more left turns than right, then the left side tyres are worked less.
It is with LMP3 on Road America.

I don't really feel it affecting my car (it is the right front btw)

that will happens sometimes. Its not necessarily an issue. You can of course make the suspension softer to ensure the tyres are getting the maximum contact opportunity.

Not as much of an issue in pCars 2 as it was in pCars. I find the cars are more sensitive to the pressures than the temperatures than the other way round.
Either way, the answer lies in repetition. Get as many laps under your belt & find what the car likes, how it reacts to the kerbs. I've already learned which kerbs I can properly whack & others to avoid like the plague...
That may change once I actually get into the black hole where wizards work in the suspension setup

Take a look at nighttigers setup guide, it will help you with tire pressures. but with the tire thats not heating up, should it consistently be cold then you can adjust the pressure for that tire, maybe increase it or lower it. hot pressure is important but equally surface temps are important too.
