Hockenheim
Not too sure what to make of that. Was definitely "close" racing.
Don't mind a bit of rubbin but some of the overtakes I seen were a bit adventurous.
Wilson could probably agree with that one based on what I saw in race 2.

Re: Hockenheim
TJ there are actually a few S.Is in for that race already. If you saw something that seems questionable send in an S.I I fear my blood might have been up a bit in race two after getting stuck behind Wilson for so long. I know I used the curbing and there was some contact so I hope it wasn't my pass that was suspect.
Race 1 was a bit of a bummer for me but still had a good fight at one point. Race 2 was one of the most frustrating things ever but in a really good way. My hat is off to Wilson he drove an amazing race.
Race 3 was a blast and only my second ever XPLR podium. I watched the replay a bit ago and a few off the errors made were rough ones. Seemed as though proper etiquette was followed and for the most part guys were trying to be polite about their mistakes.

No John your driving was fine. I was actually enjoying the battle just couldnt get the pace to join in. and my drag tyres were well gone so didn't see the point in holding you back because you'd get round me eventually anyway.
There also seemed to be a lot of use of the tarmac off the track in the first corner by a fair few people.

Karma at the price of 00.001 seconds? lol
I did enjoy watching that to be honest and thought it was an acceptable response lol
I would have done the same if I didn't have my super grippy drag tyres on because I was barged out of the way too.
Vengeful driving FTW lol
I'm pretty sure the correct race etiquette for overtaking is that the overtaking driver is fully responsible for making the overtake cleanly and the defending driver does not have to move over for them (Unless they are being lapped). I think there's a few people that need to learn this or watch some real racing to see how pro drivers overtake and give respect the other drivers on track.

Re: Hockenheim
You are correct TJ. It is the responsibility of the passing driver to make the pass clean and within track limits. It is also the responsibility of the driver being passed to fight hard but still fair. Everyone needs to remember while defending you are allowed one move in between track out and turn in of the next turn. Last second moves to chop the passing drivers nose off isn't ok either. I should post the section of race two with myself and Wilson. His defense was clean and very tough. Also I need S.Is on this kind of stuff. Two wrongs don't make a right.
