Understanding what a blue flag means and how to react is great info! Thank you.

What I can only assume is how the blue is activated durring an online race. I have been racing along and have been given the blue flag, look in my mirror and see a car appear. It gets closer, I move to one side showing my intention and lift to allow a pass. Other times I am given a blue flag and see nothing in my mirror. Usualy this happens after a bad line in a corner. Adding both of these up I can safely assume that the blue flag is raised by the server based on distance + speed.

Doing the math (to early in the am) Im traveling at 130 mph and the car behind me is going 165, I would see the blue flag sooner than if I was going 160 and the car behind me is going 165. I have yet to read anywhere, even the manual how it actualy works! It might help if the flags were different shades depending on how close the car was to your car. Like light blue for 300 meters and bark blue for 100 meters.

I would like to thank all of you for looking at this objectively.



Jet..I don't race a lot and I race clean. I hate wreckers and cheaters. I have completed the tutorials a few months back. I own a lot of sims but this one is the best. You are good and I have a long way to go. My problem is setups. the one you made and posted on team INFERNO i tried out today. Nice setup no wonder you run up front, I should finish top 10 for once.

Its all good, Thanks

hi

Do you know, what BLUE FLAG does mean? What did you do? Nothing, and you were blocking track by absolutly slow drive too. I was following n1lyn, back from me was norbi and csimpok and you were in the middle of track many laps back. When you did this second time in one lap, i could not solve this unlike to kick&ban you. And, as you could saw, all of the others had the same opinion. And BTW, I think, that Iam not the person, who is ruining this great game.

have nice day Tick

bye

Yes I know what a blue flag means and many times during our 10 different races did I yeild to faster cars, Indeed I was slower than the front of the pack! Out of 15-20 cars I was not the slowest. I drove a clean line and was very polite to all racers fast or slow.

No one warned me about blue flags before during the race because I always yeilded. I dont have a replay didnt think to get one(I will in the future) Obvisouly I dont have the miles you do ( i work 60 hours a week
;-) )


And you have a nice day, I know you wont lose sleep over this nor will I!

I was just in that server, erm you were accused of wrecking and the guy was diffently pulling some pretty fast times, were you getting lapped by him? I dunno i didnt vote I didnt see it, i was having my own problems. Looks like the ol' momo pedals need to be replaced

yes he was pulling some fast times and I saw him comming but in the middle of shicane when your already dedicated to the line you cant get out of the way. I ve been playing this game well over a year off and on. Not as fast as some of these guys but i am polite on the track.

Was banned from a server today because some hot head moron tried to pass me in the shicane... word to you MORON! learn when to pass and dont ban for your own mistakes.. Its people like you who ruin great games like this! ,,|,,
