Johnny Cooper medal 5000 5 years 274 days ago
Hi guys,
I saw that the races are all cut short of 100m or so and that the race finishes earlier on the grid than where it started. I would like to have the finish line moved up where the starting line is as well. It cuts of the last lap and in many races also the last laps DRS-zone, which seems a bit unfair.
Thanks for hearing me out,
Johnny

I assume devs did great gob here. The starting line and the finish line are two different things. Starting line should allow to start on the main straight for as many cars as possible (25-30 places on the grid) and the finish line is ALWAYS opposite the race control building. When it's possible they make one line, when not - two. Plus there can be different lines for different series.
All this helped Michael Schumacher to win 1998 Brithish GP. He had to come in to the pits within three laps to serve his penalty, which he did by entering the pit lane on the final lap of the race, but in doing so he crossed the finish line, which extends across the pit lane, before reaching his pit box, and won the race without having served his penalty.
I would like to see start and finish lines on the map before the race though.
