When sorting by tyre wear, the list is alphabetical. Which isn't useful.

e.g: Average, Awful, Bad, Excellent, Good, Okay, Very Bad, Very Good.

True, at least they are still grouped together though, thats the most important thing.

Huh? What an absurd notion.

Justify the statement. Exactly *how* is that the most important thing? Exactly *how* is grouping them alphabetically (to all useful practices, a random order) in any way shape or form useful to man or beast???

in theory putting the tyre wear in that order is fine.. assuming you do one stint of say 15 laps but with multiple drivers , stints and order settings, that ordering becomes redundant and you end up sorting the laps in order.

Okay then. Obviously the alphabetical position of whatever name we call them is an entirely accurate way display tyre wear rates. Everybody knows tyres wear more or less because of the names we call them! I can see now why it's all my own fault ...

I really can't understand why this is being so defended. Am i the only one who can see how perfectly wrong this is? *boggle*
