    First of all sorry if this is in the wrong place. Please move it if it is as I was struggling to find the right location for it. At the league that I run we have been trying to run an Automobilista 2 league for some time now and I was wondering if there was any time frame on when certain problems with multiplayer will be solved or whether any information can be given on what is causing them? I realise you guys are busy and that there's lots to do but we've been having some of the same issues for nine months now of game crashes at the start of races and various other issues that I've outlined below.

    1. TYRE PROBLEM
    In online races in a number of pit stops during our online races, the tyres have failed to change on competitors' cars effectively ruining their races. This is particularly problematic when the weather has changed for example

    2. STICKY WALL
    This was a problem experienced only at the Kansai track as far as I know and is not specifically multiplayer related but nevertheless drivers couldn't drive away from being 'side on' to the wall in the second Degner corner.

    3. TIMING ERROR
    It has been noted that when pulling the results file it is logging drivers in incorrect positions at the end of the MP race. 3 drivers were in the wrong positions in the results file when talking to them and checking with the replay.

    4. STRATEGY ERRORS
    Adjusting strategy is still presently causing crashes in the sim and booting people to desktop. Also the strategy is adding fuel at pit stops when not asked to resulting in much heavier cars.

    5. START PROBLEM
    Going to the race pretty much always causes a crash for at least 1 or 2 drivers, often more. This means that qualifying is pretty much a waste of time at the moment as in the last 5 races we've run, we have not been able to go straight to the race and use the grid from qualifying.

    6. NETCODE ISSUES
    It has been noted also that the sim on occasion causes contact when there is none. This happened at our most recent race. It is not however as bad as some sims I've known and not the biggest problem on this list.

    7. GRAPHICS ERROR CRASH
    A number of our drivers have been reporting graphics error crashes during the races or practice from multiple different graphics providers (AMD, nVidia etc)

    I realise that you have a lot to do but would really appreciate anything you can tell us on these issues even if it is not a timeframe on when they will be fixed. Thank you for your help and time.
