Thazio, it's a shame that in my rfactor2 I did brake hard enough so I avoided contact with you while in your rfactor2 I didn't. That's something ISI should work to avoid on online races (Don't know if that is because of the latest build, or some kind of server lag) but I never saw it happen when we raced the F3s and F2s or at other fun races.

I apologise if I make you feel bad.

No problem, it was mainly myself that made me feel bad. We should all be able to give and take constructive criticism.
I'm an aggressive driver by nature and unfortunately you were the victim of my learning curve. Let's move on.

Before you move on how about expressing some of that Kumbaya sentiment towards the rest of the guys you collected. If I missed it in the thread I apologize.

watching my replay its possible that you clipped his exhausts , they stick out a long way on the F1 and are unseen from the cockpit of a following car , this may be something we have to look out for when racing close .

I think Yerke did apologize sincerely many times for this to go on and on.
Lets move on

After the incident, I backed out to the outside of the track as soon as I could because I knew there was a lot of traffic coming up. Ofcourse, I felt bad about the guys who were in the chain collision that happened afterwards but I don't feel fully responsible. Check the replay to get a better look. Besides, the yellow flags were waving a while for you to realize that there was something going on ahead. I'm not going to apologize explicitly to you because you demand it. Apology accepted, no hard feelings. Let's move on.

*bad english warning*:

You mention an issue which i get wonder sometimes in races: when i do something wrong on track its better to keep going and wait for after race penalties or should i have to do something about it trying to compensate my mistake?

ps: btw, i think, if it is possible, to someone check my pitstop during race because i´m not sure that my tires was changed (~55s pitstop time, both races)

If my actions take someone out , i will pull over or stop until they repass me even if it costs me places , if there are penalties as well i take them as it was my fault .

If your pitstop was more than 20secs you had to have changed tyres , by default a tyre change will always take place unless you sellect not to change

[Dick Darstadly]

The problem is that i almost always think i did something wrong

You know your tires are being changed when you feel the car is first raised from your right and then from your left.
Anyway if you hadn't changed your tires you'd have felt it during the end of the race, you'd had probably suffered a lot of grip problems.

About pitstop time length in these cars, here is all information gathered from carstat.net
Most important: 4 tyre change must take a minimun of 45sec with a random increment up to a max of 54 seconds. Longer pitstops if no repair is taken are due to not having your pit crew ready (too early or too late pitstop request).

Crew preparation time: 30 secs
Crew delay multiplier: x 0.4
Crew maximum delay: 7 secs

Tire changes:
2 tires change time: 20 secs
4 tires change time: 45 secs
Max delay per tire: 9 secs/tire
Concurrent tire changes: Yes

Damage repair:

Aero repair time: 15 secs
Suspension repair time: 300 secs

Good info Gorka , it looks like i have always called for pitstop too early in the lap , from this info it looks like the ideal time to call for pitstop is about 35 secs before your due to arrive at pit
