Season III - F1 2017 RACEONOZ Formula One World Championship (PS4)

So basically everyone WITHOUT driving line went off at the hairpin cause of the bloody brake marker no one owned up to taking out God forbid we ever actually get a wet race but if we do the guys with driving line will be massively advantaged cause they’ll know how fast to take the turns.....how about driving line gets banned and no TC gets applied to div 1A as well

Well, i was never going to have a good race at these first 2 tracks, and i knew it..

Started 10th. disappointed but not surprised. Race was quite uneventful. got up to about 7th by lap 2, before i was almost taken out by @fezza s unsafe rejoin at the harpin. saw 3 or 4 cars all go off, and then BAM! copped one right on my sidepod. luckily it didnt end my race as i wouldve been furious. few laps later i had a moment on my own, and rolled around in 10th ish for the rest of the race. ended up crashing out on lap 22 from a massive slide.

Bring on some decent tracks for the next few weeks!

Wasn't a fan of this track either but 2017 made it a little more tolerable. Had the pace and strategy to be comfortably in top 10 after a few ahead of me had their moments in the opening laps. But then got tangled up with a couple of hard charging drivers from behind and lost my front wing on lap 3 and that was pretty much it for me as I had to manage doing the remaining 25 laps on mediums instead.

Hat got me by a couple of meters at the end and finished P12. The drop round gods can now happily take this round off me.

unsafe rejoin? it wasn't from my perspective and it was you that took me out instead.

I run no assists (except ABS of course) and I didn’t run wide. I noticed as soon as I was getting ready to brake that the markers looked a little different, but thankfully here there were brake markers on both sides of the track which could still be used.
Also, I believe you’re talking about Div 1B (simple grammatical error), but if we ban TC for 1B then what’s the point of having that division? TC is the only thing that separates B from A.
As for Div 2 and their ability to use driving line, that’s a fair assist for them to use as they are obviously a little off the pace compared to Div 1 and this helps with general consistency.

*grabs popcorn*

I wont elabortate other than to say that it is YOUR responsibility to rejoin safely, which you did not because my car was there. (pics tell 1000 words)
pic 1 - Fezza off track
Pic 2 - Fezza about to rejoin (with my nose in view on the right, and me on the racing line as permitted)
Pic 3 - Inevitable crash due to unsafe rejoin

Now please tell me again how i took you out???

Yeah looks unsafe to me was completely off track and turns straight back on

Yes but cars attacking/defending other drivers are very likely to miss something as you're not focused fully on such a minute detail. Where as the guys with driving line would be able to react due to a big red thing on the track.

How'd you get Fezza's POV

to be fair, you cant use driving line if youre right up on someone anyway. by the time you see the line go red, you should already be braking because you are in the draft.

youtube vid.

I see your point and tbh driving line for div 2 isn't the biggest issue. It's the 1B guys with the traction control. I know it's all that seperates them from 1A but maybe then it's time to just combine the two half divs....
Also can you link fezza's vid pls...I cant seem to find it in the thread

We could all just pretend this race never happened and never touch this track again?

GLADLY

I like my 25 points but even I agree

yeah solid as drive mate. its a tricky track with a few tricky complexes in it.

it's better to see it in slow-motion:
I was ahead of you and you saw me going wide and of course I'd ease back onto the track as I did. You had a much better view of me ahead of you and I didn't have much view of you to my right (I personally didn't even see you on my right as I was concentrating on the other collision earlier and my recovery). So you could have kept a little more to your right just to be safe but instead carried on as if I wasn't there at all. It would've been an unsafe rejoin if I came back onto the track at a much more sharper angle which I didn't.

Before this turns into a huge en mess
