Hello Nigel,

I’ll look carefully after dinner but it looks like your fuel load was much more. Please avoid inappropriate words, I understand your frustration but let’s try to keep the forum as a non toxic space. :)

Can you elaborate a bit more your report please? Please tell me the driver affected and the lap of the pit stop. Thank you!

I do apologize. You know It's just not a nice feeling to finish 13th instead 3-4th because of that. The field is so tight than small things like this cost a lot.
Anyway. It happened before my car stopped. What happened is that all the other players cars went a quicker in the pitlane in- and out and simply just passed me. I don't think is anything to do with fuel. That was the last pitstop of the race, I had 0.6 L in the finish. 
The other thing I need to find out why it happened (that was not the first time either) that for the last sting my car became much much slower compare the other I raced with during the whole race. There is must be something I miss.

With the last stop I'm afraid it was fuel, lack of it rather. Your consumption was somewhere around 2.9 to 3 litres per lap, but for the in-lap you had 2.5 left. Even on PL1 that wouldn't be enough to make it to the first box.

You still don't get the issue. Overtaking in the pitlane. Other cars goes faster in pitlane. If I enter the pitlane first I suppose to be in front until I reach my pit spot, right? That not happened. Where every cars suppose to go with the same speed. I had 1.6 l left when I entered the pit, that not suppose to be a reason to been passed by 5 cars in the pitlane. That is not good at all.

Nigel I think it’s you that don’t understand.  If you run out of fuel you will slow down in pit lane. 1.6l left at the pit stop? Just look at your own stats and you will see you were using around 2.9l - 3l a lap, you had 2.5l at the end of the previous lap so to have 1.6l at the pit stop you would have had to use 0.9l on your in-lap!

Hello,

Thanks for your reply and data. Just checked the logs of the race twice and, yes, unfortunately you ran out of fuel in the pit lane, that’s why other cars overtook you. Since this isn’t a bug I move to Help & Support. I understand your frustration but you blamed the game here in the forum and league wall which wasn’t nice or positive at all…

Oh I see. Possibly that was the issue. Thanks for explaining that.


José: Thank you too. Sorry if I'm not happy and positive.

Hello Nigel,

No problem! Now it’s the moment to learn, I’m sure you got a very insightful lesson. Running out of fuel in pit lane is extremely dangerous to your race strategy! See you on the track. ??
