    Hi all,

    This is a question for any staff members really. Just seeking clarification of the track limits rules in regards to Paddock Hill Bend at Brands Hatch.

    On the exit of the corner there is the red and white striped kerb and then light green run-off between the kerb and the gravel trap. In the competition rules, it states that you must have 2 wheels on the track, including the kerb at all times.

    The question is... as you don't get a lap invalidated penalty for running on the green section, is this considered as part of the kerb when looking at track limits? Is it simply a case of "if there is no lap invalidation, the lap is considered legal?

    Just want to be absolutely sure.

    Thanks guys!

    if there is no lap invalidation, the lap is considered legal -> Correct.

    I think you're one of the first guys to lament that the track limits somewhere in R3E are too laid back ;)
    If so, try some laps on Raceroom Raceway. The 'this lap will not count' message is regular here :D

    Greetings
