i finished first in my first race but when showing the results im in last place, didnt had any penaltys what so ever, this happened now three times, same result, don't wanna start a new championship till this is fixed. IA: adapted, amateur. any tips or fix? thanks.
Did you get a time penalty for missing the pit window or using option tyre for more than half race distance?
When you finished the race, was your finishing time flashing? If there's a time penalty it'll flash - showing the race time then the added penalty. I raced a dtm 2014 champ with mandatory pitstops and as long as I pitted at the right time it did work properly
yes, thats exactly what happens, showing time, then i see some numbers flashing, requested pitstop after pitwindow showing it's open, i don't think i did anything wrong. I always race prime tires. However, can be i was exceeding pit speed(red speed) but i didn't see a penalty on screen. What i noticed is "you have to pit now" even though i pitted before. Strange.... Thnx for replying.
If you start on primes you must change to options *after half distance*, but before the pit window closes - you sure you're doing this?
ah ok, i didn't switch to options tires, think that must be it. I will try a new championship, is there any topic explaining the rules somewhere?
Found this in case it's useful: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/113450 It's rule changes for the real DTM 2014 season
This gives the current 2015 rules, but can't find the specifics for 2014, sorry: http://www.dtm.com/en/regulations/sporting-regulations
I don't thing you need to worry about anything except tyre rules. You have to change in the window, and have to use primes for at least half the race. The crew chief app knows this and will give you appropriate advice
