Ah ok, on usual non DRS tracks you can use it everywhere in the race, so I thought you were refering to that issuethats what I meant lol

The ground, which is cooler than the tire, will dissipate heat from the tire as it rolls over it. And as speed increases, airflow also reduces the surface temps. Although at higher speeds a tire will still gain heat even in a straight line, especially if the car is producing downforce. This also occurs in rF2.i didn't know where i should post this, but accidentally i found a huge tyre heat bug from the Mod. At first i Always found it a bit strange how the tyre was going up and down at the same time in a corner. But Going alot quicker up than down which means he got overheaten but that didn't look so strange to me, until yesterday. I made a mistake and spun into the grass and stucked on the curb. Than i realised that my tyres are not cooling down. In fact they got hotter. Omg i seriously didn't believe until i saw it and thought are you serious. Than i tested it at the pitlane I spun on Purpose and looked what happened. Well, and the thing is: If your car moves your tyre cools down. If your car stops the tyre does not cool down. It doesn't matter how hot he is he won't go down again to 100C. For example: If i did donats getting tyre to 300C (which is crazy by the way) and than smash the car into a wall to force it to stop immediatelly the tyre will cool to 270C down and than he stopped it. First i thought (and that was crazy thinking) the Ground got heated up from my 300C Tyre (which is impossible) so i drived 10cm backwards. Well what happened when i drove 2km/h in reverse? The tyre cooled down by 20-30C than i stopped again and the tyre Stopped again to cool down. Conclusion: It's a bug. If you move your car it doesn't matter how slow or how fast the tyre cools down. If you don't the tyre doesn't. Ah and if you got your tyre to 200C and you drive 1km/h in reverse it cools down and if you stop it may could happen that the tyre get's even more hotter than he had before you drove at reverse . (Yes that happened).
Ps: Sry for my bad english

Great footage showing the variance over short periods of time.

You've seen the thermal imaging (infrared) on F1 coverage, right? Just notice how when they take the tire warmers off of a car in the garage, the temps barely change at all until the car starts moving. And even though the tires are only in contact with the ground for a second or two before the car moves, there's a dark (cooler) patch visible there. As soon as they're rolling at even a slow speed the temps drop fairly quickly.
