Ok, lots of picturs here but its only basic things as usual. The most important thing is ofcourse the bust stop chikane, very important to drive correct there. If you remember seing the race on TV they had put up "cones" in the entrance to it. They were not supposed to be knocked over but they were...
Just stay on the track and DON'T cut the bus stop chikane....Thx / Martin

Belgium cutting rules (for NA)
Hey Bilbo...
You were in our practice session last night (wednesday evening). I was wondering if you noticed any violation? (did any of us cut?).

I did not stay very long and I did practice a race stint so I did not really look at anyone's driving, sorry.
The major points to watch out for, IMO, are:
- No cutting at Eau Rouge which means NO driving on the asphalted part on the left of the track.
- No cutting at the Bus Stop chicane. Means no running on the green stuff AT ALL. Don't cut either at the entrance or the exit of this chicane.
As usual, don't crash yourself to obey these rules (be safe!) but if you have to cut or drive off-track, lift a bit from the throttle. Repeated or consistent violations will be penalized but don't worry too much if it happens only once or twice though, especially if you slowed or did not accelerate for 1 or 2 seconds afterwards (which shows on the replay that you did not intend to do it and/or gain from your mistake, like a self-imposed penalty).

Thanks Bilbo.
I must admit I must work on NOT to drive on the green area on curbs then (at Bus Stop Chicane). Strict rules but I respect them.
