Zlappy has been saving replays for an entire sim racing career for this moment.

Zlappy is either the worst driver we've seen in a while or the unluckiest driver we've seen in a while.

“Guys, you’re racing fake cars on the internet” - Gold Jimmy, pure gold

About the Roval incident, the Orange car was driving along the blue/white line. The orange car couldn't do anymore while the white car was moving towards them. I would blame the white car.

11:00 its clear the white car wanted to do a last second defense. If that line was a wall, not sure he'll take that line

I haven't been in a simracing crash for months. I also haven't driven in a sim in months. I think it's a coincidence.

Dont normally comment, but disagree Jimmy 11:00 The white car totally chops the orange cars nose off.

White wasnt fully ahead and just tried to drive into the space the orange car was already in and the orange car was already on track limit. Asking the orange to leave the track in order to avoid the white is unreasonable in that situation, the white simply has to hold its line and not turn in.

White Mx5 definitely should have left more space, orange left space and would've had to lift to avoid contact, whereas white could've just not chopped down

10:05 I would have said it’s the white cars fault, they hadn’t completed the overtake and chopped across the orange cars line. I would argue they are now on a straight so the orange car is still entitled to a cars width of room if the white car hasn’t cleared him yet which he hasn’t at the contact.

SLIM FACING STUARTS

At 11:00 I don't really get why it's not the white car's fault. Orange car was holding his line and the white car basically just drove into him and spun himself around.

9:30 That's all netcode right there. They never even touched.

'Are Driving Standards In Sim Racing Getting Worse?' id say no, its just turned to quantity not quality

For Zlappy, that one at Long Beach, you GOTTA make that move quicker than that. I feel like he bullied the GT3 car at that point  to get under him at the Fountain and compromised his race a lot, then absolutely botches the mid corner and expects to just take the exit on the racing line - that's shitty. He could have left enough room so that didn't happen which is good situational awareness.

The Ferrari that hit the Porsche in Forest Elbow even hit the WALL before hitting the Porsche 🤣

"watch the replay before you open your mouth" is great advice, there's been a lot of times i've had that gut reaction to moan and gripe, but than take a deep breath, watch the replay and been like "ok yeah I put the other guy in a shit place/should have seen him/wasn't as clear as I thought" and even if it wasn't my fault on review tried to look at it more like "what could I have done differently or better? what can I learn from this?"

I've learned that advice at the end as well. Things can get really bizarre if you don't. Had one guy on LFM send me a message "complementing" my driving after we'd had a coming together at a race around Spa ... except I hadn't been involved in any crashes. He'd messaged the wrong driver. So, out of the goodness of my heart I decided to look at a replay of the race and find the incident he was whining about. Turned out it was his fault. He was complaining about not being given any room at the first chicane but replay showed the other driver gave him plenty of room and it was him who had caused the contact and taken himself out.

Always ... check ... the ... replay ... before mouthing off.

Jimmy, I think you got the MX5 Roval one wrong. The white car was never clear of the orange car, and I know everyone and their mother cuts the exit to the backstretch chicane, but you can't assume that, and the white car just moved across the nose of the orange car obeying the track limits.

They've definitely been in decline.  Seems like anytime something goes more mainstream you see this happen.  Same thing happened with surfing.  It exploded in popularity, with that lineup etiquette and adherence to the unwritten rules has gone out the window.

10:46 Uhh, no? Orange car was getting squeezed outside of the track, and it's not like he hot his nose in for an overtake - white car still hasn't overtaken it but decided to cloae the gap anyway

I feel at 6:00 the Lamborghini had been overtaken but the move wasn’t 100% done. More like 97%. He came across while the Lamborghini was almost behind. Sort of a rac8ng incident.
