All penalties can be appealed. The appealing process may take a while but we do take the defendants case seriously. Remember, If it is a Pro incident reported, I myself don't have much information towards it,I only have the info given to me by the PRO stewards so if you wish to challenge a penalty, add the pro stewards and the Admins (Admins have to be apart of everything)
Since this is a issue that goes throughout the entire series, I will address it on the public forum:I would like to Appeal on the use and consistency of the track limits rule:
2. Cutting and running with more than two tires over track boundaries. (Minor)
2A. 15 second Penalty to overall time. Drivers get two warnings. Upon the third time, they will receive a penalty. 2B. Let off the throttle to 50% or under for 3 seconds.
Since this is a issue that goes throughout the entire series, I will address it on the public forum:
I, personally, believe that corner cutting should receive 15 seconds worth of penalties max, regardless of how many times they cut, however, my partners (The other stewards) believe that it should work with 2 warnings, then 15 second penalty for every next corner cut, I think that's a little excessive but its majority decision against me.
If you guys want it changed to something else, you can file a IPO rule appeal with "signatures" from anyone who opposes the rule, but don't file it just because you want a smaller penalty. Filo you did good in trying to appeal this even though you were not affected by it, you showed concern for your fellow drivers which is admirable 👍
Actually he was penalized. Look near the bottom of the list.Filo you did good in trying to appeal this even though you were not affected by it, you showed concern for your fellow drivers which is admirable 👍
That was for a crash, he is questioning corner cutting.Actually he was penalized. Look near the bottom of the list.
From the rule that is what i believed, it's not a rule appeal it's the consistency of how the rule has been applied, for instance it seems to be only a number of drivers consistently getting penalties where others are doing exactly the same thing as them. It is unfair when you are racing someone where you follow their exactly line and yet you get the penalty.
Throughout the race lap after lap was no more than a tyres width away from the curb, should this lead to a unlimited penalty?
if i was further i let off the gas for 1 / 1.5 seconds. I believe there were only 2 instances where i didn't.

There's another item with his name just above that.That was for a crash, he is questioning corner cutting.
TNR_FILO: 15 seconds penalty for exceeding track limits and cutting chicane;

I was just pointing it out.that penalty is fair.
The first picture is pushing limits but the second I was trying to correct the car (as you can clearly see) and not cause a pile up with that NSX.Here are 2 instances where @rcb929 extends the track and where another opponent does also, yet no warning or penalty given.

I don't really feel like arguing now since it's been a very long day. Just ask @CodDemon101. Can you just accept your penalties and move on?that's a lot of defending then in the first 8 laps.

Oh wow you are right, I don't pay enough attention to my own postsThere's another item with his name just above that.
Alright, he was getting a bit off that topic and more in his penalties thats why I said that.@CodDemon101, I allowed Filo's conversation to go on in the public thread because he was arguing against the use of an IPO we have and it's consistency, since it applies to everyone I kept it public.
I think the rule concerning this should be tweaked. Here are the adjustments I've come up with:
All penalties would be the same as before.
- You must have 2 tires on the track at all times.
- Curbs count as part of the track...
- ...as do the painted strips of tarmac behind them. In real life these painted strips exist as a safety zone for drivers to make sure they don't wash out too wide to rejoin safely, and as long as they get the entire car back between the white lines before it ends, they aren't penalized.
- You may overtake with the entire car off the track if you were forced off of it by another car, in which case the car which forced you off the track would incur the penalty.

I don't see how there would be any interpretation as to whether you have two tires on the track. It's pretty black-and-white. Besides, having the rule like this would make it easier to correct a mistake without being erroneously penalized for not respecting track limits.I'd like to see it where there is less interpretation of the ruling where it comes to track limits like:
- 4 tyres on the track at all times.
- Curbs also count as track.
- White line outlines the limit of the track where there is no curbing.
- 2 instances count as a penalty the 3rd 15 second penalty, + 15 seconds for any more occurrences where the driver doesn't release the gas for a second or more.

Exactly. That's the point - so you can have two tires on the track/curb/painted tarmac and two tires off. It would help avoid scenarios where you make a mistake only to be penalized for something that probably cost you time anyway.But having 2 tyres off track you can interpret it at 2 tyres only needed on track.

that's a lot of defending then in the first 8 laps. the penalties need to be more thorough. like @Brutaka said 15 seconds or nothing.
i am still uncertain why there where 5 and 10 second penalties, the rules don't say anything about those.

Obviously, cutting chicanes would still not be OK. The rule would exist to ensure that you can retain control of the car without being penalized for doing whatever's necessary to do so.So cases like this would be fine?

Those rules are all considered, we actually give some sort of excuse when using those "extra" curbs.
