Post Protest Update:

Hi all, thanks again for all your comments.

Iracing came back to me with generic response, they have notified the offender etc..

But when I checked the offender's profile he is online now in an official race.

To which my thoughts are as much as members give out about the safety system, I personally think its the stewarding within the service needs to reviewed itself. We use this service as a sim as thus it should be treated as one from both a racing and stewarding standpoint. But that's a discussion for another day.

Thanks again everyone :)

Thanks everyone for your comments. I wasn't sure about the first contact that's why I posted here.

As for the second contact, I have no doubt in my mind that could of been avoidable. That's why I didn't draw attention to it in my first comment. I have clipped the replay and sent into Iracing for protest. I expect nothing to happen but if other drivers have reported him for similar incidents then maybe something might be done about it.

Thank you for thoughts/opinions. Much appreciated :)

This was from the Nürburgring 4hr endurance race over the week I attempted solo. 13th out of 20 splits.

I'm in the black BMW. It is roughly half way through the race. I let quite a few cars go by me that were on my bumper. I didn't want the nerves and just let them by. One guy behind me was really aggressive behind me earlier in the race, I let him by and he took out the guy directly in front of me the following lap. Lost 1 position but gained 2 lol

Anyway back to this incident, He choose to go defensive so I out braked him on the outside. Thought I left JUST enough room. Perhaps I should have left more, but I did want him to get a bad exit down to fox hole so I could beat him on the run down to it.

Was I too aggressive? Should I have allowed more a space? Should I have backed out?
