Should the harshness of SR loss be ajusted with the number of laps?

hello everybody ,

as you already know , on races B (my favorites) , a single penalty -even the slightest- will ruin your SR no matter what even with all green sectors , because we have so few laps
on Races C however , many more laps so more possible green sectors so more chances to maintien or upgrade your SR

i think its only fair to adjust SR loss and gains with the number of sectors in a race
 
It'd be nice if the SR penalties on Race C is as harsh as it is on Race A and B :)
 
Race B penalties could be less severe given its the sprint variety. Race C is more of a feature race.
 
In race B, if someone hits you, then your SR goes down. That is not within your control. How can anyone believe that to be fair?
 
If you were dirty in 1/10 sectors it’s a bigger part of the race than if you were dirty in 1/20 sectors.

In this example you were dirty twice as often in the short races, and that should be reflected in the SR score.

Harshness at race c is different to race a and b:confused::confused::confused: IMO with more laps at race c, the cars spread wider and less contact between them as the race goes on. So higher chance to recover the lost Sr. :tup:Checked with my race history, race c did not necessarily mean Sr gain.:odd:

The thing with Race C is that the SR penalties are the same with Race A and B, but with more laps (and therefore more sectors to get an SR up arrow), so while Race C may not always mean an SR gain, the probability of gaining SR is higher. Also the race rewards you with 13 SR for a perfectly clean race compared to 4 in Race B (and maybe A), so it's quite easy to top up your SR again just by driving at the back

It is fair. Currently it works like a proportion system.

Can't agree more. Race C should also yield max 5 SR for a clean race. Race C can actually get you up to 26 SR for a clean race. Kyoty+Yamigawa a few days ago for example. Brand's hatch was 22 points in GR.3 in a daily C, perhaps it was even more yesterday with the extra laps in GR.2.

The big SR pool invites a dirty first 2 laps and chaos in standing starts. Keep the penalties the same, make it harder to gain SR. It's too easy to regain SR in a daily C and now the penalties seem to have been a bit relaxed as well.

The idea that more accidents are fine for more laps is dumb. It should be the other way around as you're messing up a longer race. The free pass to do whatever you want on L1 in a daily C needs to go.
