well yeah, you don't have to.
But if it's 4 corners and the guy who got the blue flag is still in front he gets a penalty.
That does not apply when the faster class laps the slower class, of course.
In my book it means getting the hell out of there. Whether thats done by giving the inside line into a corner to the car that wants to lap or whether that means getting off the racing line entirely doesn't matter.
But the car in front definitely has to alter it's line or speed in some way. Otherwise it's a penalty.
I'm fully aware that what Oliver wrote is not exactly what the rules say. The rules are very clear in my opinion and I would rather have someone stick to this simple idea of getting off the racing line than have someone think occupying it is fine.
