Pit stop under safety car

[Reiss]

I've noticed that piting while everyone is following the safety car is really advantageous because the car is driving way faster in the pit. It is even possible to gain some positions this way.

This probably happens because the speed limit in the pit was increased (that is one of the rules that can be voted) but it seems a bit silly to me.

I also wonder while there are no white lines outside of the pit. Cars should not be able to go straight to the racing line while exiting the pit.

Would be interesting if its just cause of tyres, or he changed cause of weather before, and this time for refueling (and then they change tyres anyway).
Think you would be see on his standing time.

But as i refered up there too, it happens as a visual bug too :)

And can you help me in Workshop out there? -.-

That happens in nascar sometimes to save some spots, tho the caution laps are lil longer then this game we need to like someone said 2+ laps more would be fine

[Silverangel]

Was me :P
Yeah Nascar is handled way different Anyway ^^ But to not "bugusing" the Pitlane the Safety Car should be bit faster to prevent this. Cause here you not saving spots.

Pitting under SC for less time lost in pits is a legitimate racing strategie irl, happens all the time in any series, infact you will see guys speed up under sc just to get to the pits quicker

Overtaking yes, but im fairly sure you dont have to overtake SC with it. Thats what i mean :)
Thats why i said SC should be faster cause u could end in front of SC. That shouldnt happen.
I know there was already one who said it happened to him.

Normal overtaking with Pitstop under SC i know and its handled in F1 too that you can overtake from start to end in Pitlane but not on Track :)

I just had a race where we all pitted at same time , I came to pit behind safety car , and came out 6th. So our line catches the safetycar, next time 2 of the line go pick new tires again. You can even see it in their used tyres section that they used those tyres for one lap.

And it doesn't even matter what stats show. When you follow a car who has 95% durability on it's tyres, and he goes to pit when you a following him and comes out with 100% tyres.

Not all cars do this.

Yep, can confirm and have observed it several times. I even had one driver pit 6 laps in a row, take on new tyres every time, then retire.

Actually under SC conditions in real racing it's even explicitly allowed to overtake in the pit entry (unless the SC is going through the pitlane). Weird but allowed. When going to the pits overtaking (even other cars on track or the safety car itself!) is allowed from after the safetycar line at pit entry until the safety car line at the pit exit (see HAM last in Monaco 2015)

[Silverangel]

Yeah but is not allowed to overtake the SC :P
And thats a Problem with too slow SC too. On some Tracks you can Overtake the SC with Pitting :)

Actually if you're faster than the SC through the pits (however, changing tyres is mandatory then) there's nothing that prohibits it ;)
