The Race Directors decisions are final. :character0008:
Think you guys had a lot to do this time...
But there is especially one issue that confuses me a little. And yes..it was me sending all those cutting incidents. And I'm aware of that the Race Directors decisions are final.
From the briefing from round 1:
WARNING! Cutting the track!
...From next race on, reported drivers will be checked. If they cut the track in their fastest lap, they will receive time penalty. We can check both pre-qualification and race events!
It was also pointed out before round 2 that driving in the grass was not allowed. Well, obvious some drivers didn't stick to that rule at all and sort of got away with it.
So what should I do? Keep following the rules and sometimes lose a few places and just be happy or try to bend the rules when it's most suitable? I guess everyone can afford a warning. In this particular case I was a lot slower than both these drivers and I guess that only a small time penalty wouldn't give me any extra points. No fishing for points and I don't dislike those 2 drivers at all. Just want to know if there will be a little more sticking to the rules from the race directors in the future. Anyway, I will hold on to my policy and keep avoiding the grass, but of course there will be accidents from me too I guess
Still think you race admins are doing a fantastic job but I suppose you never want me as judge.

First of all thanks for all the help.
For the issue at hand, whoever gets a general warning like this time Ludwig and Daniel recieved, next breaching of rules results in DQ from the following round, see Pirro Chun. I think thats serious enough.

Thanks RD Staff, u do a good job and i think its good when people get what they deserve .
.
Going to struggle I think, I am sure that when I get a car I'm happy with I can get a low 1:48.
Hopefully the Pre-Qual server opens up early tonight so I can get some laps in because I really want to do some driving

LOL Bram, same here, just that you end up 100 pos higher than me with the same strategy! but then again the thirty minutes are sometimes down to 15 minutes for me, as before Istanbul where I did my seven laps in pre-quali and that was that.
Still: Having a ball!
Haven't done any practice. Will just hit the track in pre-qual and hope I can replicate a previous lap.
fully agree with mehmet there
big list of incidents on grp 2, that must have taken alot of time tnx for that

1:47.986. I wonder what group this will be 
1.47.700 after 10 laps.
Hope I can improve that, still have to make some changes in my setup.

Been in the server for less than an hour and down from my first lap of 1:50.1 to a 1:48.6. Another 1.3 seconds and I'll be very happy
