    Today I had a multiplayer-race, ADAC 2014 in Oschersleben. First corner after start I missed my breakingpoint, went right to avoid a crash, get in the gravel and got a slowdown.
    The Slodown runs down until 0.1 seconds and didnt expired. I waited for a minute but nothing happened, I cant drive anymore because the slowdown hungs at 0.1 sec all the time.
    Anyone had this bug before?

    Hmm never had that happen before. But in my opinion the penalty's should be changed slightly to take honest mistakes into account (if possible). You should only get a slowdown penalty if you win more then a second or so on your fastest lap, or if you overtake someone and not give the spot back. Now, when I run wide and lose time I still get penalty's on top of that. :p

    No, but maybe you had a connection error right that moment it happened.....but from that race (I 've quit too because was rammed by a guy who didn't had your forsight 1st turn right at start) I know I will wait with online champs until such bugs and others are ironed out and a proper flag system is available.

    More or less it is already like that. The Penalty you get depends on the shortcut you take. As bigger the potential win could be, as longer the Slow-Down. Unfortunatly the Penalty-System doesn't recognize the "style" you take that shortcut. So it doesn't count if you slide, spin or even got pushed in to that shortcut.
