Do we have to come back on track before end of red/white vibe? or is it alowed to continue outside the white line, cause i saw real F1 driver in qualif run 4 wheel outside this white line.
Just to make it clear to all. Please admin can you discuss this and come back with an anwser?

In the past, that was considered "going wide" (same as cutting), especially before there was sand in the runoff area. Some time could be gained there.

So we could say that we must be back on track before the vibe finish, at least 2 wheels must contact the track inside the white line before the end of vibe. This may be clear? unless admin say reverse.
I think that this was like that before, but i wasnt 100% shure, and better know before than after... theyr is some exception at some track, i was wondering if this was one.

We could use this pict to explain clearly (i think its clear

) The green line is the limit, the position of the car on this pict is a cut(wide), and can be penalzed as per the rule, unless the driver lift a little the trottle to loose the time gained to avoid the penality.

That's what the rules already say, but it's not bad to have a reminder...
At least two wheels must be inside that green line at all times otherwise an apology lift is required.
That's unless an admin says otherwise, of course...

lol, you dont remember my last year ugly paint Picasso? Ha and if this year, you have to scroll to see my print screen (2 first pict up) im sorry, i have no scroll bar viewing them. I just crop the last one, so you will be able to see it entirely. Yeah, I have a new big Mac (2 last word seem familiar

) but i know that some still can kick my ass on track, they just need to stay on it

Hello
Not sure why this question comes up the rules are plain at least to me.
Two wheels on track at all times if you cut there you will have to back off as to not gain time or you will be penalized.
We all know that in real F1 they go wide there as they do in a lot of other tracks and are not penalized but our rules are our rules and should be followed and not change for different tracks (IMO)

Well, there are a few exceptions to the rule, so when in doubt, it's better to ask than to assume something which could be wrong...
Might be or sound harsh

Hello
Although it might sound harsh what I wrote but was not really indented that way. It was more to the point then it was a slam at anyone.
I guess my personality (Of being on point and not playing around) is standing out at this moment.
If by being straight on point I hurt or bothered one or all my apologizes to those I offended.
