It will be a pain in the a** for admin/league marshall to check everyone.sorry my idea was to prohibit esc only outside pitstall or at least pitlane, not expressed well. Only to prevent exxagerate quali attempts. But then you will lose the duty to repair as in race...
We cannot prohibit using ESC in quali. What if I want to do a change to setup? Take out some fuel? Loaded wrong setup by mistake before leaving garage?
anyway, better something than nothing, complete esc prohibition could be even more thrill
Aha... Ok, I see...
But I can see some issues with allowing esc only in pits too. If I damage my car, it still won't take me very long to bring the car to pit and then press esc. Only a few seconds or max 1-2 minutes, in a long quali session of 30 minutes. So I don't think that would prevent the "sloppy" quali attempts.
But however, I think it could increase the amounts of accidents around the track when a driver is not allowed to press escape when he, after his crash, is standing in the middle of the road. He will sure ruin someone's hotlap. Or just imagine someone trying to bring his heavy damaged car back to pits... They are not easy to handle sometimes and maybe he will be zigzagging all over the track and ruin someone's hotlap :o I can see many possible issues.
I appreciate when someone is quick to press escape when crashing in front of me, and I try to do that myself, so I do not ruin it for other drivers :-\
