I have searched the forum and found nothing about it.
I wanted to know or propose if the test circuit is the driver favorite, when the test is done the parts of the car have less wear than other pilot that the circuit is not.

Maybe your test times will be a little faster :)
Besides that, you aren't going to gain anything from having the test track as FT.

If test circuit is favorite of a driver then he will try to push car to the limit, push more laps, to enjoy the feel of the track, to enjoy the surrounding and he will keep doing it.
So, wear should be more not less.
PS: that was just for fun :D

Exactly, what i mean if, is the driver had the test track as favorite for the season and you do a test your cars part wear a little bit less than other drivers.
Of course the time will be faster but maybe gain something with the part wear will be cool i guess

Honestly, it would actually nullify some value to testing for many players should testing be treated differently if its an FT.
All sorts of data mining would be corrupted, making it worthless beyond simply using testing to gain staff/driver stats and CCPs.
What about the new players who need testing to build up their knowledge of the game.

@Julio Lugo (A39) I don't think it affects the parts wear.
It does not change wear in a race. Why would you change in the test track?
(I'm lazy to mine the data.)

it won`t change any of the resulto and idea of testing.
it would only affect cars part wear. (only 1% or 2% less in every part) after 100 laps done.

If that was the case it would be a massive unfair advantage to those who have got the test track as FT, given that testing wear is a substantial part of total part wear over the course of a season for those running over 1000 laps in a season, which is standard in the higher tiers.

For just 1 race, not across the whole season. Just for 1 race.
Also, if you mess with the test data like this, you mess up the ability to use testing for research purposes many also use it for to garner more knowledge of the game.

Sure they do. But that track is just one race and as all tracks are featured semi-regularily(ish) over time it balances out so that everybody gets an opportunity with FT.
As it's not a common occurrence for a certain track to be the test track, it does not balance itself out amongst all players and isn't something that can be predicted in advance.
