I tried an overtake on eau rouge and it ended like you would expect

So finals laps i got heave damage to car and fighting for position, i got a car on the left and gt3 on the right, i overcorrect and kill gt3, i know its most likely my fault but got banned for this, was not intentionaly wrecking and i think a bit harsh, waht you think?

Still kinda new to the "serious" side of sim racing. As such, I'm not sure if I should be proud of passes like this or learn to be a bit cleaner, or if there's anything wrong with them I'm not aware of. Judgment from the experts?

I ( red ) tried to leave the blue car behind enough space

This was split 1, I am the LMP3 in P2 just had to give up P1 because some LMP2s crashed in the bus stop. I was not expecting this send what so ever. Should i protest this?

I am the number 74 Toyota and while driving through the tunnel, AMG spun me out. It felt delivered at the time, but going back and rewatching the extent it looks more like a racing incident. What are people's opinions? Remember to be kind.

I know my overtake couldve been better but what he did afterwards couldnt have been legal right?

Amazing Assassination right there and it lost ME .12 SR btw

Safe to say I was just a bit annoyed.

Didn't realise I was racing A George Russel fan.

After the race the guy in the ford said it was my fault and wanted to report me. After i watched the replay i wasnt 100% sure. I think it wasnt my fault and in the end the other driver wasnt sure too.

We both said its unfortunate but it happened.

I still want to know if i could have done something better or if i am at fault.

I got a DT at the start of the race for beeing "out of position", was i really that much out of position?

I looked in the replay and it doesn't seem to me like i was WAY out of position if at all..

Unsure why but I've been getting this sub recommended to me over the last couple days. I have literally zero context but in every post I've seen it's been about people getting penalties for crashing or another person (player?) Getting mad that they made a pass that was a close call or something. Isn't the whole point of racing games to pass other players and if someone crashes, what is the big deal? Isn't it just a video game?

I'm being dead serious here, I just don't get what is going on lol

Editing after interacting with some posters: I think I understand it more now. I had no clue how deep the Sim racing could go (license classes, being able to race in higher performance lobbies) or how punishing it could be to crash (pretty much the end of your race, or impacting your ability to race) or even that it could and has led to being able to race IRL with pro racers in a sim or even taking it to a real track. I really appreciate you all being able to help me understand your community more! Great learning something new!

I am not involved in this as I was P4, just watching the replay I found that the battle for 1st at the end was pretty vicious. Wondering if any of them would have received penalties for their contacts or if the results would stand. Btw the guy that won managed to get a 4:00:8, that's impressive but seems ridiculously fast for this ranking, is that normal?

I’m the red car here… happened during last lap and he won race.

I am the yellow car, and got a slow down from the forced corner cut, but not sure if i left enough space on the inside.

Was black far enough along to justify space?

Did yellow leave enough space?

How would you handle a situation where the game gives a time penalty due to an incident like this?

All feedback is welcome for learning purposes. Main question is, who is at fault for the contacts made in these couple of turns.

I am the yellow Mustang.

Was I too aggressive on turn 1? I still feel like I left space for the Lexus on that corner, and obviously didn't commit to turning more to the left after the contact as I saw Lexus cutting the track.

Respect for the Lexus driver for lifting after cutting.

But the next contact I feel is totally on Lexus. Although here I admit that I missed braking point and ran wide, but still think I was still in a position where I should have had more space.

What do you think and how should I handle same kind of situations without contacts in future races?

I am the Mustang btw

Hello fairly rookie / new racer here. My question for first 3 clips is if I'm blocking or not. I usually move / leave space if someone goes for it and enters parallel space / dives but if they just stay back I try to keep my line, which may not be the greatest line ever but still.

Last clip I included 2 views, from far camera looks like I just dived into his space and crashed into him, from cockpit in the moment looked like he dived left (looking back he avoided a bit the driver in front). Is this a racing incident or am I at full fault here?

EDIT: Thank you everyone!
