    You created a link to your own profilepage. Don't really know how you did, but you managed to do that :D

    Still, if you create a preset, it will be activated automatically, but you will still need to push on the confirm button in the pitlane which is annoying.

    Since today's update, you can make the AI control your car during pitstops :)

    Why if I set a minimum time for pit stops of 65 sec. (ADAC GT 2015) during the pit RRE shows me a "(75 sec.)"?

    For the driver-switch?

    And, above all, why I haven't the "GO GO!" from the pitcrew?
    I don't know when to go out!
    When all advices (switching drivers or rotating tyres) are gone?
    and after 65 sec.?
    Or 75 sec.?

    The regulations from 2015 state that rotating tyres adds 10 seconds to the minimum pit stop time. So if you don't rotate your tyres (which I would recommend), it's 65 seconds, else 75 seconds.

    Regarding the moment to leave your pit box, basically during Practice you should measure the time needed to reach the end of the pit lane from your pit box. If it takes 10 seconds to reach the end of the pit lane, leave your pit box when the timer hits 55 seconds.

    Thanks, @majuh. Really.
    Ok, now it's clear (but why Sector3 doesn't give all the informations about rules? I really don't know)

    I'd like to be the pitchief to tell me when to go out, but that's ok. :)
