Livetiming

I have yet to find a convenient way to see what lap the drivers are on. So today I opened up the livetiming and saw that it said LAP 27 ( thought that it meant that the drivers had finished the 27. lap and were on 28. ). I waited till my driver crossed the line and then decided to pit on that lap, thinking it was the 28. ... Later, after the race I checked the data and saw that I had actually pitted on the 27. lap. 
I also ran out of fuel on the last lap, but im not gonna blame it on that :P.
Did I somehow really misread the lap or is it a problem?

The top row of the live timing shows the *current* lap.  The lap times displayed on the LAP column however list the times achieved for the previous lap.  Perhaps this is what is confusing.

Yes that is correct Ivar

Yeah that caused the confusion. All the livetimings I\'ve used have had the completed lap there and the gaps, lap times or whatever under it.
