Stewards review

Orange Zone:
53 - Balazs Varro overtakes Ruben Escriba and does not return the position. Drive Through to Balazs Varro.
254 - Amancio Paquez drives back onto the racing line when Balazs Varro is there. Amancio is at fault but already punished enough by his crash since Balazs gets away without damage. No further action.
280 - Gui Pereira divebombs two cars, can't keep his line and ends up causing big contact. 30 sec stop and hold to Gui Pereira.

Reported incidents/observed by race control:
1423 - Simone Iennaco pits under code 80 and does not slot in behind traffic when he leaves pits. Simone should have backed off and merged back onto the racing line behind the traffic. Drive Through to Simone.
2019 - Michal Galka hits Nicholas da Silva during the code 80 in a slow turn. Drive Through to Michal.
2725 - 2 370z and one GTR go 3 wide in the banking. This one is hard to judge which is why I'll go over it in detail. Simon Marshall on the outside is not at fault, he did everything right and was caught in the mess. Nicholas da Silva comes down on Blane Heerey and causes initial contact. He definitely should have left more room. But Blane Heerey goes for a risky overtake. The 370z is just barely hanging on in that turn. Being the faster class is all about taking low risk and this was a much higher risk than it seems at first. However the cause of the accident is still Nicholas coming down. There was more room. If he stays closer to the 370z on the outside he can't be accused of doing anything wrong. But when there is room he has to use it. The penalty will be reduced because Blane could have avoided the incident aswell. Drive Through to Nicholas da Silva.
3120 - Mehmet Ugur first turns in on a GTR and causes contact and then proceeds to bump a 370z on the oval for no reason causing a big crash. 60 sec stop and hold to Mehmet Ugur.

Sorry, maybe I'm stuipd, can some clarify when the race ends, as I'm a tad confused, Is it when you finsh the lap after 0:00:00 is announced in game chat?

Thanks in Advanced!
 
nope, when the leader finishes the lap after the time has run out
and only after that you can see the checkered flag.

So if the time runs out and you cross the line before the leader you are still racing. I think you went into the pits before the race was finished
 
I cant race this race due too others things i have too do this evening so a reserve can prove how good he/she is
 
Florian, I might make it back home in time however this race will be tight on time, been summoned at work by my area manager (I’m a store manager) so I might be back time but there is a chance I will miss this race, however I will definitely be on the grid for the remainder of the season it is literally just a chance I might miss this one race thought I’d let you know
 
@Ben Boorman , that s Florian s "working" area, so you have to wait till he will come online, but you can go on the track and practice just in case.
 
@Matej Lakota Hello "19:55 - All cars must be on the server, all racers connected to TeamSpeak (everyone alone in his own channel) - and stay there"

Simon Marshall asked me to inform you that he will arrive a few minutes late.

Thanks!!!
 
Apologies for missing the race. My rift crashed in warmup and I had to try and restart the computer to get it going again. Didn't manage to do so before the race start. Sad because I had a good quali time. Onto the next one.
