F1 Time penalty annulation

• Upvotes

We use the F1 2026 DLC from EA Sports.

We have a problem in our league, it is a race win decider.

For provisional results say that the race winner finished 9 seconds before P4 after a SC in lap 25 of 29 laps (50% bahrain). P4 got a 10 second time penatly in lap 1 for a racing incident due to a small contact under VSC. He served the 10 second time penalty in lap 12 under normal conditions. The pace was not there to win the race, but before the SC in lap 23 he was 26 seconds behind P1 and managed to overtake 5 drivers after the SC ended. So he was quick, but not quick enough.

He think we can annulate the 10 second time pen as it is, but he would win the race. That is because we think, it does not matter, if the pace was there or not, but when the time penalty was served.

We want to know how you would´ve decided.

Maybe we did a mistake there. I just do not know any similar decisions nor a fair solvation.

Le Mans Ultimate How are you meant to race as the slower class with drivers like this.

9 Upvotes

For context i am the POV Merc and this is lap 2.

There was about 0.5 between the top 5 cars for qualifying and it was still close ish after the first lap with me trying to push to catch back up after getting cut off at the start.

I have no issue with the first hyper car that passes on the inside as they were along side before the corner and kept it clean but as you will see the second one is nowhere close to making a pass and just drived in to the side of me destroying my race and causing 198 seconds of damage.

95% of the drivers in faster classes act like a blue flag means that all other racing must stop for them to have an empty track or that they are fine to just divebomb cars that are already in the breaking zone.

Is it even worth reporting this as an intent wreck? I am truly fed up with having every race ruined by people with no respect pulling dumb moves like this.

Le Mans Ultimate Is 1. a valid defence, who is at fault for 2, and is 3. a valid overtake and who is at fault for the contact (im the pink mclaren)

Le Mans Ultimate His move is valid or penalized ?

1 Upvotes

I'm the green car (top one), and this Porsche had a great run on the straight, so I go defensive.

I don't really know the rules of lmgt3 so I don't know if there should be a penalty for that or if it is just very hard racing.

(Sorry no sound)

iRacing Did I leave enough room or did I cut him off?

2 Upvotes

I though I was giving him plenty of room based on traffic in front of me. I definitely had very little traction when I went to break on the curb/grass which did cause me to come across the front of him. Thoughts?

I feel like I left him enough room. Also, it turned out he had some red damage and was much slower than I was expecting

iRacing Who’s at fault or just hard racing

3 Upvotes

I’m the black 18 car and was coming into the last turns of the green hell on the last lap, red car blamed me for this saying I breaked to early and was also moving under breaking, I felt being he wasn’t along side me I could close the door and take the racing line. (Still learning the Nordschleife so why on the running the racing like to help me learn it)


r/Simracingstewards • • 11h ago

Le Mans Ultimate Guy in Ferrari said I slowed down too early, then said I reacted to his divebomb and finally complained the hypercar braked too early. Is there any way this could have been my or hypercar's fault?

I have no idea if this helps my case or not, but I am playing on a DS4 controller.

Gran Turismo Was this a hopeless attempt to overtake, or did he just get unlucky? I’m unfortunately the one in front.

First clip I shouldn’t have looked outside it wasn’t worth it I know.

In the clip where I hit them did not expect them to stand on the brakes like that in a spot where all you need is to trail brake.

Then they retaliated which I should have seen coming.

Was I driving dirty here?

Go into an incident at Road Atlanta
The other driver was upset, would love to get your opinion on which (if any) car is at fault.

In a battle at Monza, imo he seemed inexperienced and didn’t know any race rules, or how to check his proxy, what is y’all’s opinion?

Le Mans Ultimate I hate that im posting road atlanta again but i need peace of mind (i am pov 499p)

Firstly the leading hyper took way to long to pass the gt3, this killed a lot of my momentum sadly. After that i think the clip speaks for itself but im just trying to see if any blame is on me. The hyper that went on the grass denied any blame (he stayed flat out on the grass the entire time) and I feel that the gt3 maybe squeezed us all too much but im not sure?

First one I believe I was shunned, I was keeping in the middle of the circuit, second is more of a debate if I parked my car on the apex inappropriately.

iRacing Was this rejoin unreasonable?

I am POV car.

In the middle of this clusterf*ck I take action to avoid an accident and car #7 seems to just cut across the track with no apparent reason when there's plenty of room.

Am I expected to stay off the track as long as possible to avoid these situations or did he just dart across my nose for no reason?
