hi, last race was very active on pit and safety car usage.
And then the rules were bend a little.
So we specified them more for you.
We erased the rules about the lag lap because we don't use that anymore.
Here are the added pitstop rules :
7. The pitstop
7.1. Pit entry lines maybe crossed when entering the pit except during oval races.
7.2. Don't drive too close to another racer entering pitlane, because you don't know when he will hit the brakes hard to reduce to pit speed.
7.3. You can not overtake in the pitlane. But you can overtake another driver standing still in the box.
7.4. Drive in the outside (or fast lane) pitlane as long as possible before entering the box, don't drive over all the boxes. Also when leaving drive as soon as possible towards the outside (or fast lane) pitlane.
7.5. When leaving the pitbox watch out for traffic in the pitlane. When they are too close, wait and resume after they have passed you. Again, no overtaking in the pitlane.
7.6. When you have crossed the pit entrance line and a SC procedure is called, you may resume your normal pit procedure, leave it and rejoin with the racers.
7.7. Watch the pit exit lines during qualify and Races. A 20 second penalty is added to you finish time when you cross them.
also rule 9.10 has got more info on the pitstop issue :
9.10 Overtaking is forbidden!!! If you were just overtaking give back that place. This also means you do not overtake while entering the pitlane or pitlane entrance. You can overtake another driver standing still at his pitbox. But there will be no overtaking in the fastlane.
