You have to go to community, then there will be a column of all your PSN friends, the ones that are online should be at the top, indicated being online by a green LED type icon. Find your appropriate friend that you wish to join click on your friend then you should see a round yellow icon 'join looby' click on it!

the fuel will last the race, the soft tyres will last about 6-8 laps before starting to die off, so possibly 2 pits will be needed.

make sure your testing online and not offline, as the weight of the fuel isnt added offline meaning alot faster lap times
