What did you try to do?
I setup my second stop for 15laps

What happened instead?
I came in on 14laps. No "Pit" indication was flashing to alert me to this.

Did the problem happen while using wi-fi, mobile data, or both?
Wi-fi

Did the bug happen in the app, on PC, or both?
PC

What operating system is your PC?
Win10 LTSC 64bit

Which browser did you experience the problem in?
FireFox

Can the bug be reproduced?
First time it has happened.

Additional comments:
I had .9 of a lap on board of fuel when it called me in a lap early. Just wanted to put it out there in case someone else had this. Came in lap 23 instead of lap 24. Went from 8th to 15th.

Hi

I'm a little unclear as to what happened, was that 0.9 litres or laps remaining when your driver pitted?

Either way I imagine he pitted because he didn't have enough fuel remaining to complete another lap. However, the fact that you didn't get a "pitting" indication is a little concerning. I suppose it's too much to hope that someone was recording the race.

Thanks for reporting, I will escalate to the iGP Team. 

Edit: I think this is the first report of such a bug so I will leave it open for others to post on if they experience the same issue.

.9 laps. That was my assumption, but from past experiences the driver has gone on to do that lap. Plus I didn't get the "PIT" notice on the control panel like normal.
No lol no one was recording the race :/

Since the fuel was assumed to be slightly short of a full lap a screenshot of the race report lap by lap data for that stop would be usefull. To see how much fuel was left exactly can at least acertain if that early stop was justified or not.

You were using fuel at around 2.2 to 2.3 litres per lap so with only 1.9 litres remaining it is not surprising that the car pitted otherwise it would have run out well before the end of the following lap.

The only issue here is that the "Pitting" indicator didn't warn you. Could it be that you just didn't notice? We'll wait to see if there are any more reports of this.

Thanks. So 1.9l at finish line left with a consumption of 2.23-2.25 litres per lap, your estimate was pretty much on spot. In my book the game wasn't really wrong there with initiating the stop as going any longer bears severe risk screwing up a car even more than an extra stop, but that still leaves the problem that the light should've came on for you to react on it.

I've seen this before where it still goes around. This was different behavior to what I normally see. Either way if the "PIT" had been flashing, I would have canceled it & gone around on bottom bar, Hungary is very fuel efficient.
So if it looks right, that works. Thanks for taking a look at it ;)
