    Hi,
    I did a little pracice and a few FR4+Portimao today.
    I have an issue that sometimes my car jumps out of gear and it cost me quite some time. I then have to up-or-down shift, and shift back.
    It usually happens on down gear shifts in the hair pin and when Im in 2:nd gear it just revs when I try to accelerate.
    Does anyone know what I do wrong? I have not had this happen before I think.
    Regards

    A bit of a late answer but do you perhaps have damage on your car? Does it act the same way if you turn off damage before starting the race/practice?

    Also download diview and check that the clutch isnt spiking or the shifter isnt doing a double press on its own

    Do you have neutral mapped somewhere? If yes, delete it. There could be contact issues between wheel and base (Thrustmaster T500 here, same problem with a couple buttons)
