SR4L F1 League Race Reports Rnd 9 Croft

Drive 3 sec off pace for the rest of the race or try to overtake him in a safe way? I didn't have to think about this very long, because a lap later when we were racing down the start/finish straight, he choosed the inside and I choosed the outside, but just before braking zone he swerved back to the outside and braked early... I locked up instantly and had no choice other than avoid him to crash into the tire stack on the inside and lost a rear wheel - race over.
Sorry. I was waiting for the whole lap maybe when you finally seriously start the overtake maneuver, strongly decided to let you go. But attack did not come. I knew it is for that strange situation being 1 lap on you. But I was not willing to lose the time also. On that straight I did not choose the side, I was checking the track map/gaps and non intentionally stayed there. But before the turn I checked my position and seeing me still in front of you and a bit to braking zone decided to improve my position to better take the turn. This is strange series for me, incidents and incidents, never ending story, my fault, another driver fault, hardware issue, software issue...I am very close to give up really frustrated never experienced such situation. But it is also hard to me to leave the job unfinished still it would be bigger frustration.
