S12 R02 Brazil Grand Prix - Incidents

Lap 4 turn 7. Runs out of fuel and decides to turn back onto the racing line.

I have nothing to report, myself.

Still, here are my own replays, if necessary (Quali PB and Full Race)

The scene with Tom James, hm? That was insane, he nearly took me out too just a moment before. :/
-no actual report-

I've also got nothing to report but I saw a few drivers cut through the white lane going into the pits. As far as I know before the race  it was said that we were allowed to cut that mini chicane on the other side of the pit wall but nothing was said about the white line that shows the way the car going into the pits has to take which you can't cross by default in every track that has such a line. So my question is: has it changed and from now we can go into the pits whatever we like even making late moves crossing white lanes in every track? 

To be honest, we rarely force the drivers to respect the white line at the pit ENTRY (unless it's to avoid an incident or an absurd (and ilegal) gain of time).

On the other hand, we ALWAYS force the drivers to respect the white line at the pit EXIT.

And at Interlagos, we NEVER forced the drivers to use it (pit entry) - I think we also agreed a long time ago that everybody could ignore that line and I've seen people do it in all of the previous seasons, so I think that's 'normal' for Interlagos.

So, just like you assumed it was 'ok' to overtake from where you did at Dubai, I myself, also assumed it was ok to ignore that line at Interlagos and never bothered (including today) about it - although I believe I actually respected it, for the most part (gotta check on my replay) - I was more afraid of hitting the walls when braking hard, than anything else (I could easily lose the rear sometimes on hard brakings)..

Ha! Funny..

Yea im sorry my HUD (i use GID) is above the Pit sign so i didnt realize i had qualy fuel and I was out of fuel already when realized i was on the racing line. I know you crashed sorry for your race but it wasnt on purpose.

If i get a penalty its fine.
