He has decent concentration but couldn't keep up in the Brazilian GP. What a wanker. I was coming back from the street, logged in to GPRO and the idiot went off the road just when the race screen popped up. I thought it was bugged because it was just standing there in the grass and then as if an UFO went to get him, ... Driver -> OUT. I'm going to kick this idiot later on.

It takes more than concentration to having a good driver, also consider lowering risk then if that is the case, that is what mainly constitutes driver mistakes

EDIT: Oh okay i see what has happened. You have had a tyre puncture, a complete random that cannot be helped whatever the driver

Haha man I had tyre punctures in real life but this was kind of fun. if that's the case then I blame the laws of physics xD Anyway, with the kind of roads here (The GP is based on the country I live) can't say a tyre puncture would be that random, simply because we have a lot of debris. Our roads have a lot of nails falling off trucks so ... I wouldn't be impressed if there were some in a race track aswell. =P

Won't make a difference when it comes to randoms like tyre punctures. Could use 0, could use 100, same thing can happen

A tyre puncture happens once in a blue moon, nothing can prepare you for it

0CT will reduce most incidents but will not stop punctures and 0CT will not get you very far up the games ladder, running risks give far greater benefits than the drawbacks of the possible incidents you mention. Look at me, so far this season I've had no incidents with risk, one of two races with 0CT and I retired.

I was prized in a bad way. Ok, didn't drop down the rank at least. Maybe it prevented some more parts wear. -_-

Did I say it will stop punctures? Come on, what are you trying to tell us here? Are you telling us that lowering risks is better than using 0 risks when you want to avoid start crashes? Are you serious? The main point here is the person is asking what he needs to do so that he can finish his race.

Use low risks, use zero risks both can't stop punctures.
Low risk still has higher chance of drop out than zero risk, especially when the driver don't have enough skill to handle the risk you provided

Yeah yeah I've read a lot of that in our team forums but here is the question, is he already in a higher league already? no. He is still in rookie and his question is he is asking how to avoid drop outs as simple as that.

Nobody can control the chances of getting a random, but the higher you use risks the more chances you will get a random. I believe the game engine has base chance rate, it does not mean that if you use zero risk you are safe, no, base chance rate is the lowest chance in getting randoms, the more you add risks, the base chance rate will get additional chance rate coming from risks, that's why I suggested to him to use zero, at least you are at the minimum, this is the best option if you really want to avoid drop out.

Indeed. I use fairly low risks already but even that didn't stop it. I'll consider lower risks even.
