+1, restarted race was sucky

Quote from EliteAti :+1, restarted race was sucky

Well, they just did what they were supposed to do according to the regulations.

Quote from GTAL rules :
13. Force Majeure

1. A state of force majeure is in effect when the primary race server’s connection crashes and the
race must be restarted.
2. In cases of force majeure, the race will move to the designated backup server and be restarted. An
interrupted race will be restarted with the time remaining rounded to the nearest hour. If 15 minutes
of a race are completed before the server crash, the race will be restarted with 3 hours remaining. If
30 minutes or more of a given race hour are completed, that hour will be counted as completed--i.e.,
a race in which the server crashes at 1:30 or 1:31 will be restarted with 1 hour to go, whereas 1:29
would mean 2 hours to go. The grid for a restarted race will be set using tracker data. Furthermore,
all GTAL admins and marshals will have auto-save enabled as a backup.

3. Restarts following a server crash will be handled in the same manner as a normal race start.

Your driver wasnt even near that car, actually there was also one car more in the middle of both. Blocking is something else for me.

Car #14 has done more than 2h 15 minutes without driver change now, that should count as DQ..

If clever driving means not fair play, yes it is

Quote from Vegas Las :If clever driving means not fair play, yes it is

Just take a look on the situation, and don't whine around.
If you have kept some gap and didn't blocked each other around there you wouldn't have got passed.
It's your responsibility to handle this situation. Ever seen anyone in the F1 complaining after a restart: ah, the car behind tricked me.. And F1 is the temple of whiners
