Quote from Mustafur :Track wasn't that bad, it was just the tyres where too hard for the track so there was no strategy.

This. I think the long curves into braking zones make it quite difficult to make an overtake too though, it would still have been an exciting race if drivers had the option to drop back and save their tyres and make the attack later on. It was difficult to make an undercut work too when the tyres seemed to take a couple of laps to come in

Quote from amp88 :Now confirmed Marussia will only run a single car this weekend "out of respect" to Bianchi. Don't agree with that decision; would rather have seen Rossi in the car.

Bare in mind that it's more about the team than what Bianchi should want. I mean, Bianchi's engineers are also his friends and are surely struggling with this and having all sorts of questions in their mind. I think it's disrespectful to talk about the fact they just didn't have time to sell the seat etc and to act like we know what Bianchi would want when in reality we have no clue.

LFS is much easier to drive. Slip angle is much bigger in LFS so mistakes cost you less time and are harder to make in LFS. Also in LFS you can brake 100% much easier, it doesn't try to kill you if you brake hard and turn at the same time the way iRacing does. Oh and the drivers are usually better in iRacing than in LFS, which makes a difference too.

Quote from IsaacPrice :Who cares? It didn't affect the result at all as he got screwed over by the safety car.

Didn't affect the result? How could you possibly know that?

Because I'm not stupid?

How can a safety car be out many times at South City? There is nowhere to get stuck and pretty difficult to flip.

I didn't think it was your fault either. And Jesse did get a penalty for his contact later in the corner, Adam.

Quote from Eclipsed :
Just wondering why there are no complaints about wind - 2nd race in row with pretty evil wind,even if today it was not that wicked,still made some problems.

Because would it change anything? Basically the only reason.

Just curious. How do you handle in race DT's that aren't served during the race due to retirement? Grid penalty for the next race, or does it just get forgotten?

Clearly we have different opinions, but IMO 1 of us doesn't understand the rules properly. How I read what Deko put about it only being applied 100% in the overtaking sense - to me that just adds ambiguity and no challenge at all because in normal driving it will be exactly the same as it always has been and we will just have to use less road when we are overtaking another car. It's not like we need an "extra challenge" in overtaking if the problem is we crash into each other too much even after thousands of laps here.

Challenges? The same people will be fast regardless of the track limit rules, don't kid yourself. And adding cones would cause even more crashes which apparently they are being introduced to avoid.

Quote from dekojester :Track limits have ALWAYS been noted in the NDR Sporting Code, it's nothing new. The only new thing is us defining the exceptions we grant at each track. Enforcement is not changing, we're not hunting for track limit violations to garner more penalty points. We don't review the race for track limit violations, we just define now as a result of some violations of track limits in Round 1 and we've decided to make the exceptions perfectly clear to benefit the drivers so they know what they can and can't use. The NDR Sporting Code for the longest time has said between the white lines and the curbing only, and we've never really cared to mention our exceptions. Now we do.

Yeah, except now you are saying some corners where we have always gone 4 wheels off is no longer allowed in an overtaking context - read the examples I put.

And to be honest if you want my opinion, if your concern is the driving standard in the league then it's likely caused by the wind and the safety cars that then causes affecting whether the tyres are in their working range. Even if you heat the peak temp of the inside of the wheel up to optimal, that doesn't make the core temperature and the outside of the tyre heat up the same way as it would if it was green the whole time and even the best drivers(not just me) were struggling a lot at FE3, the only guy who wasn't struggling was Jarl. It's a fact that the more difficult you make it for the drivers, the less good the driving standards will look. That's what you wanted when you added the wind - to make it more difficult, and that's what you got. I signed up to the league knowing what it is.

And I don't personally care if the results take longer. If I cared enough I would work out the bit that's relevant to me. My point was if you want to give yourself more work to do then that's what you should do, not start nitpicking track limits

Quote from dekojester :
Track Limits

The grasscrete at the following areas shall be considered part of the racing surface, and therefore allowable to have all four wheels on it: Exit of Turn 1, Exit of Turn 8 and the North Straight. At all other points of the circuit, drivers must keep two wheels on the racing surface at all times.

Ok, this post is presuming that the white lines define racing surface - and if it isn't I don't understand why you need to make an exception anywhere, you aren't going to gain an advantage by driving onto the grass. I can think of 3 places where basically every lap, or almost every lap - this rule has been broken in every single race I've participated in on this track.

Examples: Turn 6 exit, Turn 9 exit, Turn 14 entry. This is based off the NDR trackmap

I have no idea why you are being pedantic about this stuff now when it's not been a problem in any LFS race I can think of before. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If you want to be better admins or have more work to do, release the results more than a day or 2 before the next race. Ok you use it in the idea of overtaking, but surely when you are overtaking someone it's even more obvious to use all the road rather than to squeeze people who are on the inside of you. Track limits has nothing to do with why people are crashing into each other

Why do we even suddenly need to talk about track limits. It's not like we race any carpark circuits in LFS.

E: Wow I didn't even speed in the pitlane I think, LFS failing. http://i.gyazo.com/91045e0f04beee16a24f546ff1d27cff.png http://i.gyazo.com/5693c3a664628568c1c9966409bf8928.png

and for the record this is what it is meant to do, done in a mpr btw http://i.gyazo.com/ddd7fd67926d4602efb5818a45ea7183.png

Oh well not like it's possible to remove an in race penalty post race I guess :/

Your actual speed you're moving at is higher though (compare bottom left Speedo and Speed): http://imgur.com/a/0OSc2
Getting penalty without being in pitlane might just be a replay thing.

Nah, it's not just a replay thing if it gives me the DT before the line. I checked and normally it still gives it at the right point. I felt I got the braking a bit wrong though so that doesn't surprise me that I was speeding anyway... What is that you're using to see that? Thanks

E: Oh LFS Lazy, nvm
