Round 4 -- Silverstone
Results and Race Report
Qualifying
Once again, qualifying saw some close gaps between drivers up and down the grid, with a decent mix of cars. Congratulations to
@RS__96__oO and
@roberte for taking pole in their respective classes, and the bonus point to go with it.
The full list of qualifying results can be found
HERE.
Driver: MerlinRichards
Incident: Contact with Nik_Makozi
Lap: 2
Result: No Further Action.
Notes: Merlin spun the rears on traction causing the car to swing across the path of Makozi who had nowhere to go.
Driver: Nik_Makozi
Incident: Contact with GTP_PASM
Lap: 2
Result: Avoidable Contact. +25s added to race time (stop + 10).
Notes: GTP_PASM was fully along side by the apex of the corner, albeit on a tighter line. Makozi swings in from wide and makes contact. The contact resulted in damage for PASM.
Driver: Nik_Makozi
Incident: Contact with GTP_PASM
Lap: 26
Result: Avoidable Contact. +25s added to race time (stop + 10).
Notes: GTP_PASM was bumped from behind in the final chicane, resulting in damage for PASM. The car ahead has the right to take any corner as fast or as slow as he sees fit. It is the responsibility of the car behind to do everything they can to avoid contact.
Driver: Nik_Makozi
Incident: Unsafe track rejoin
Lap: 30
Result: Penalty for unsafe track rejoin. +15s added to race time (drive through).
Notes: Please be aware of cars approaching when re-joining the track. In this case, the cars were a lap ahead.
Driver: Nik_Makozi
Incident: Contact with RS__96__oO
Lap: 30
Results: No Further Action.
Notes: Makozi spun the rears on dirty tyres following his off at the previous corner. This pitched the car infront of RS who had nowhere to go.
Driver: VicarsRACING1
Incident: Use of chat box during qualifiying
Result: First warning for use of chat box during a live session.
Notes: The use of the chat box or voice chat is prohibited during a live session except in extreme circumstances.
Driver: VicarsRACING1

Result: Second warning for improper start procedure +15s added to race time (drive through).
Notes: Out of position during formation lap causing following cars to also be out of position.
Driver: VicarsRACING1
Incident: Making more than one defensive move.
Lap: 18-19

Driver: VicarsRACING1
Incident: Pit Exit Line
Lap: 29

Driver: Matheus-007
Incident: Contact with Roberte
Lap: 2
Result: Avoidable contact. +25s added to race time (stop +10). Reprimand for third AC awarded.
Notes: Whether intentional or not, you appear to be a magnet on the opening lap. Please be careful and patient.
Driver: Nail-27
Incident: Contact with Revoy
Lap 43
Result: Avoidable contact. +25s added to race time (stop +10).
Notes: Although this was a very unfortunate misunderstanding, it is the responsibility of the car being lapped to maintain their line with no sudden changes in speed or direction. Had you done this, the responsibility would have lied with Revoy if contact was made.
Driver: Makozi_Akademik
Incident: Contact with xNikodemusx
Lap: 55
Result: Avoidable contact. +25s added to race time (stop +10).
Notes: Similar to above. When being lapped it is your responsibility to maintain your line with no sudden changes in speed or direction.
Driver: Makozi_Akademik
Incident: Medium Tyre Useage
Result: Insufficient tyre useage. +19s added to race time (stop + 2s per minute under).
Notes: We calculated your medium tyre useage to be 48'28.
