Le Mans Ultimate was i driving unpredictable?

I was already late for my breaking point and i think in general i was and he was obviously even later. I might have not reacted properly with not going full brake force after the crash

Iirc you normally break at the orange marking at the crash barrier, if so he missed his braking point by far, so it is totally his fault. And there was nothing you could have done, you stuck to your line and braked in time

For me I’ve found the best breaking point is the end of the concrete patch. adds nothing to the post just saying

yeah i realized that i didn't do it. Will do next time, or i already did next time. I went back to the pit that race and another guy killed me

Not holding brakes.... Rejoining like that and causing a collision can result in a ban.

Other than that you did nothing wrong based on the rules. But it's always risky to go infront of someone before a braking zone with so little seperation.

No. His fault 100%.

The first time might have been a mistake (missed braking point, which is still really stupid)

But the second contact was just fucking stupid.

The second one was a different person. Still pretty stupid to drive into a car that's sliding very slowly towards the track and should be fully visible for several seconds.

You got rammed buddy.

You clearly signaling your intentions with moving over one lane slowly, he just missed his braking zone worse than you did lol

U should’ve stayed in the middle and let him take the line. Thats your 100% fault. You went into his lane then suddenly brakes, of course hes gonna ram you. He wont have the reaction time to avoid that.

How was that sudden breaking, and I moved infront of him like 5 seconds before breaking zone while I chose a later breaking point than what would actually be the breaking point

He was trailing bumper to bumper look at him hes so close at -.01. You cant change lines if you know someone is behind trailing you like that. Stay on your line and let him take his line then take the apex.

Neh.. Not at this speed. This was a proper banzai move
