Just when I thought it was getting cleaner, down to SR.A now. Mainly due to the penalty zone creating accidents. Last race a slow car swerves last second after he unghosts, I evade into the grass as only option, but the WRX doesn't like grass, veers back and I end up with a 2 sec penalty, which turns into 6 positions lost, over 4 sec lost in the next penalty zone. Those 6 create chaos, I pass a few only to get rammed from behind 3 times. -13 SR for one race.
The penalty zone at the chase is in a terrible spot. Every race it's chaos with traffic going at different speeds, gambling if they can still pass before the kink, or two penalty servers slowly driving side by side unghosting at any moment. Last week it was Goodwood where the penalty zone created chaos in the 2 high speed turns, before that Monza in the narrow bit otw to Ascari, and earlier Sarthe with 3 penalty zones so unbalanced that in one it takes double the time from you while in another it costs less than the penalty time to serve a penalty.
I'm starting to think it's not all that much better than what we had before.... Just different with new problems. One of which is people keep ramming and then quit when reaching the penalty zone as 'revenge' for ending up with a penalty. Just add it on at the finish, stop with the nonsense!
Next race, I know how the system works and why this happens but I still have to vent.
Another race ruined by an idiot that was never going to make that corner.
I was already slowed from all those flashing penalty cars in front of me running into each other, but mr hero diver behind me thought he could make the corner at top speed. Of course the penalty zone turns those 2 sec in 4 sec lost so he gets in front of me, reward for reckless driving. 70 SR left.
Lol down to SR.B now, from 70 to 40 in one race from endless bumping. Total chaos, that was not a race, full destruction derby round. And the one that started it, was the one that said let's have a clean race at the start... Always is. Time to walk the dog.
SR.C, and it's time to qualify. Impossible to race from the back at lower SR. Half the people stop to pick up hitch hikers along the way or to take a picture, wth. 24 SR left in 4 races lol.
