Not really. It's "the green hell". See?
Fire in hell is also bright.
Yeah it is over here as well, could be dicey especially next week at nurburg...
Jackie Stewart, who first used the 'Green Hell' moniker for the Nordschleife, makes several typically candid descriptions on what it was like resisting submission to the 'Ring.
It depends on the contact. Light contacts that don't result in a time penalty aren't worth much. I had 4 orange SRs per race in two races yet my SR didn't change from 99 and end of race screen listed me with a blue SR. My last race I only saw two orange SRs, the first of which incurred a 4s penalty, and at race end I'd lost 9 SR.
Hmm, either you are faking your location or didn't really see said crash in person, since that shot was very clearly taken here in Aus. You can clearly see the school zone sign in the back ground

Something definitely changed with penalties. Just got pushed off twice from the inside on Brand's and he got no penalties for any of those, even tho I almost got stuck in litter.
Saw also demolition derby ahead of me, no penalties in all races I did. Everyone ended with blue sr ratings
I remember earlier in the week, same track, same incidents, and everyone got slapped with some kind of penalty.
Was good racing mate...just a smidge to fast so I was making silly errors trying to keep up. Was funny that 2nd race i completed in 8.43 next one mistake free was a p3 in 8.35. Oh and my red sr was because on lap 2 following you 2 I hit the painted stuff on outside of surtees...then slid to the apex and a car hit me in the rear corner. Got a 4 sec penalty...only contact i had so i assume that was it
Is the penalty system actually improving??
A bit of an aggressive move, however I was right behind him for over a lap already and after he slipped up in Hawthorn I went for the pass. He did not leave room for me at the apex while I was alongside before turn in. (or maybe he expected me to go via the grass?) He crashed off and I was waiting for the 5 sec penalty to pop up. Not even an SR Down and clean race bonus after. A fluke, or is the penalty system getting smarter?
Edit: Perhaps it's just broken in that corner. In a later race:
Car behind sticks a nose in and pit manoeuvres me off the road. He did not get a penalty for that either. He did have a red S at the end, must have done other things.
I think game will never be smart enough to apply penalties in that situation correctly. Proper F1 races have stewards for that. So the best course of action would be to penalize both parties. People usually dive bomb, but also assume that corner is theirs, although it doesn't have to be...
Those look the same to me, not sure how you can blame the car on the inside for one and the car on the outside for the other. In my opinion neither move was ever really on.Is the penalty system actually improving??
