I know we are all excited for this release. What I don't know is how many people intend to a) play it on the xbox one and b) would like to join some sort of a formal league here at Race Department.

There are so many possibilities, I've had to calm myself down from getting lost in them. However, my main passion, IndyCar, will probably not be able to be run until the DLC with the ovals comes to the Xbox One.

That said, what sort of series would you like to see? Personally, ones that come to mind are Tudor United Sports Car Series, WEC, British Touring Car, and DTM. One of these could fill the gap for me until IndyCar is possible, but others may have better ideas.

Please indicate below if you are interested and what sort of times you are available and which series' you prefer. We could follow the actual schedule of many a series, due to the timing of the release. Personally, if they get the ovals out before IndyCar starts, I'll probably turn my focus there, but nothing would prevent running another alongside.

The anticipation is killing me! :sick:
 

Video: all of it
Drivers involved: Matt
Deacription: i get a run on Matt, and pull to his right, as shown in the video i get alongside then im pushed off track, and wasn't allowed back on. Out of all of this, Matt managed to stay ahead, and Ben got by me too, so a clear overtake, went to losing a place due to being forced off.

Come on Liam, are you serious? There was never room on the inside, was never going to be, you just picked the wrong side. The accelerator works in two directions! You can't just pass off track because you feel you are entitled. Even in your video you are clutching at straws to show a car width, there clearly isn't as your car is already on the grass at this point. Maybe an old mini? Certainly not an M6.

Seeing Liam has reported me, I will return the favour and also like to report Liam for dangerous driving, passing whilst off track, aggressively pushing another driver at high speed across a straight, almost collecting Ben in the process.

In addition to this, Liams video does not show this, but please allow me time to upload my video, which also shows this push, then Liam rejoining track, missing his braking point, hitting the back of Ben, then also not giving Ben the position back.

Now I have to bloody try and upload all this, when quite frankly, it was not needed, but again, I must fight my corner.

EDIT:
I hope this video is sufficient. It shows what happened. Please watch from 35m24s until just after the point Liam hits Ben at the end of Kemmel straight. Again, if we are allowed to force drivers across track to make a point, then, fair enough, but If this was scapegoat racing being accused of this, we would have at least a race weekend ban for something like that!

Also, Liam would not have had a run, had he not left the track at Raidillion, this is also relevant.

Me and ben have talked what happened out, and we're both happy about it, so since you're not involved, and ben is happy, you're wasting your time uploading anything. You're not even allowed to as you weren't involved in me/ben.
 
I am glad you have hugged it out and are happy about it. My accusation is the dangerous driving part of it and you having some red mist causing it all. If Ben is happy you took him from the rear, then that is fine, I am highlighting the dangerous aspect of your driving in that sequence, that part is relevant.

I respect your opinion Matt, i do. If you wanna put me in too, thats fine. Thats what stewards are for! We both feel aggreived and thats ok. Its up to these 2 to decide. Lets just leave it here and see what they say mate!
 
Just to clarify this for everyone Drivers are not allowed to report incidents that do that invole them its up to either Liam or Ben to do that in regards to the 2nd incident.

What oz was reffering to is that Drivers may now report track limits incidents that arnt policed by the hotspots if they feel its worthy of the stewards. This doesnt included crashes ect

Lastly for the Sprint hotspots the 1 in question was reviewed and was added as you could of backed out on the exit of the corner which it didnt seem you did holding posistion there was 2 other strikes i had removed as you did lift of throttle and you re gave the posistion. You have every right to appeal thats fine but can we leave it to the stewards please and stop all this arguing.

Thankyou

Steward's Decision
Liam and Matt incident: Liam receives a 5 second time penalty and 5 penalty points for overtaking off track and an unsafe rejoin.

Sprint track limits: Matt receives a 5 second time penalty and 5 penalty points for exceeding track limits.
 
Dear stewards, Here is my appeal.


I have 3 Points to make.

1) In the first clip, you can see my wheel does not move left so i did not "rejoin unsafely"

2) You can see just 1 corner later, Matt is ahead so i cant be classed as overtaking off track, as what should have been an easy move was denied by being forced off. Matt should have allowed me room as soon as he realised i was squeezed off.

3) If we go back to season 5 Monza, a similiar incident happens between Andrew and Fraser, Fraser was PENALISED 5 seds and 5 pen points, for exactly what Matt did, so why no consistency?
 
Appeal Decision
Original decision stands.

1) Your car moves to left to rejoin the track, causing a collision so the direction of the steering wheel is irrelevant.

2) You do overtake off track and the only reason Matt regains the place is because you hit the back of Ben.

3) It is not a similar incident as Matt doesn't push you off. You decided to move to the grass to overtake.

Thank you for the quick decision, and sorry to Matt, hope we can put it behind us!
