Thanks Paul! Excited but slightly worried by the LMP2 drivers(not ours)

I've had to rotate my 2nd monitor to see the whole thing with some detail on the numbers.

It was, we had a touch 3 races but general driving standards were bad by everyone else.
1 Lmp2 move summed it up imo... I will find it

Puh, not the best race for #115. I could place our car in P8 in the qualy, just 0.7s behind polesetter Dennis Lind which was already a good success. Race started and I had a really good pace which resulted in nice overtakes. End of my stint I gave @Battenberg the car sitting in P2. From there the nightmware started... I needed 1 hour to rejoin the server to do the driver swap. Once I was in and we started the driver swap I could not change gears... a solid DNF after such a good pace from both @Battenberg and me

At least I had some fun in the first 20 minutes of the race

@t0daY Shame what happened. How do driver swaps work in rfactor2?

Not very smoothly The driver on track sets who is to take over next in their pit strategy, with the driver swap happening as a item on the pit stop. If you're sat in the pit box you can't start a new pitstop, you have to do a lap and come in again. You also can't pull a driver out of a car like you can in iRacing

It is a tricky one. One thing I really love about iRacing is the smooth driverswap, no game does it better than them :/
