Most times I use the red SS tire for the first of the 5 practice stints before league races. Even if I plan to run only the yellow soft tire during the race (no 2 compound rule), the first stint on reds gives me an idea where I'm at against the competition (since most everyone else has set their fastest practice time on the red tire). 

Is there an advantage to using the same tire for all 5 practice stints? If I'm only using yellow tires for the race, is it advantageous to my driver to use the yellow tire in all 5 stints? Just curious what you've experienced. Thanks!

As far as I know no, only thing you have to be careful of is that I think your race strategy fuel loads is based off the last practice lap’s fuel usage, and different tyres use different amounts of fuel, so don’t want to accidentally under fuel first stint for example
