because they don't know how to. How do I get them to be able to pit.

also everytime I start a race it states that it is the ai's first time racing, when it is not

They cant pit. There is no way for you to make them pit.

This will probably be changed in a future patch.

Like Z said, AI can't pit or do quali.

Do you let the AI's finish the race, because they need to finish the race to learn, the more laps the do the faster they get.
