    @J-F Chardon

    Is it possible to add cones or tirewalls in the "wrong" pit entry on this circuit layout.

    Which pit entry do you mean? The one with the red crosses was used in this years DTM races.

    No it was not. And if you drive this way a yellow flag appeares like it should. The entry was like the blue arrow on the picture.

    And also on the minimap of this layout you can see the short entry from the oval is used, also the AI use this entry.

    But why a few driver did not? Also the Pacecar not. And why is the AI also taking the "short entry" and why is there always a yellow flag if a driver online takes the "old long" entry. And why also the minimap on this layout shows the short entry? Did the DTM used different entries in different sessions?

    Edit: and at least 2 of our drivers yesterday got 6+ seconds ( 6!, not 0.6) slow down penalties as they took the "old" entrance.

    So, whatever the "right" reallife entrance is, in this state the "old" entrance should be signed with cones or tirewalls.

    Dont know but i also didnt watch the full race. Any chance the drivers taking the short entry only did it in practice/quali to save some time or something like that? (Edit: although it sounds like the longer entry is quicker so itd only make sense when aborting a lap after the final turn). Safety car id ignore, at least on race starts they often leave last minute to bring the field as close to the start as possible

    Sounds like the game just has a different pit entry than real life

    The DTM uses in real life (since years) the pit entry with the red crosses. (Safety car you can ignore)
    In R3E you have to take (since years) the pit entry with the blue arrow.
    That's it simply.

    Not for the other layouts, they changed the pit entry there at some point.
