I hate being in qualifying and switching to race with not enough fuel on board. Not knowing how many laps doesn't help either. What about something flashing up on screen when you join server indication race length?

I would especially like to see some kind of pause between Qual & Race to adjust fuel.

It should say the race laps length in the fuel menu hud. F12 or whatever it is, I forget

It's F12, tells ya how many laps the race is, as well as fuel consumption per lap (provided you've driven one or more).

F12...

And it tells you if you have to pit or not (assuming you are running P6 (?) or later).

Oh does it.. haven't looked in there since P2 lol. Good to know

Just leave half a tank of fuel in at all times then, you'll never (well, rarely) have to worry about fuel on public servers.
