AMAZING Race!!!

Not Next 2 Laps. But in 15 or 30s maybe.

Tuching the plates for example T1 monza? Do those add some penalities? Or even if you hit them you get away widouth penality?

 

Can there be a problem if the mistake or avoidance occurs near the end of the corner section? Are there a few seconds allowance possible without immediate acceleration in such cases?

 

It's a bit more than simple mistakes.

Having an harsh system might seems a bit of an overkill but it's more fair than it being discretional. Plus it's kinda educational

Generally we are more prone to do risky manouvers for lot of reasons, the first is not actually being in a real race with real consequences.
Sometimes, me first, happens to get into a "who cares" state of mind that is really dangerous for yours and others race.

The whole point of the ratings, penalties etc is to reward being safe, constant and competitive.

It's okay if you want to drive always ALL IN to do the best lap, there is the leaderboard.
On the other hand considering what I've seen during a race generally a more conservative driver, even if slower, has way more chances over a faster ALL IN driver.

 

I have seen that. Let me lift the gas to serve the penalty while I'm being followed closely.

Didn't ended well

 

I see, it sounded as though the system treated the corners as a section and I wondered if a transgression near the end of the section could result in a penalty as there would be little or no time for any further assessment of time (not) gained. Cheers.

 

Yup, I can confirm that, I missed my breaking mark on the second chicane on Zolder, so I had to cut the track, but I slowed down and I only got a warning. I was worried I'm going to get a penalty, but was happy to see I only got the warning. My only wish is to get these warnings by the radio, as its hard to see them in VR.

 

To clarify, my query was prompted by an occurrence at Zolder on the 2nd chicane. I missed brake point and entered the corner cutting while trying to slow. I had entered the left hand section while still braking and trying to regain control, and crossed the road limits on the outside right still braking. I had gained time and immediately received a warning, before accelerating again, without any chance to give the time up. I thought this may have been due to the 'corner detection zone' or similar having been completed before I'd been able to pause or even stop to give the time back.

 

But no fixed time penalty like ac1 with no gas pedal. Just the time that you really gain.
