The leaders were at final lap when I dropped out and I was 3 laps behind so its 49.

Race Summary is what counts, and it says you only did 45 laps.
You may have done 49 laps in race analysis, but they were too slow (you got lapped four times in those 49 laps, that's why they count as 45).
(edited to correct the numbers)

You may have done 47 laps in race analysis, but they were too slow (you got lapped twice in those 47 laps, that's why they count as 45).
In race analysis it says I did 49 laps

I know, my mistake, check my edited post.
The bottom line is that it is not a bug. It is something very confusing with the race viewer, but it works like this for everyone.
|

Ok, can someone explain why the live race and analysis show one thing and old race and summary the other?
|
|
|
|
We could, but... it's very difficult and technical. :D
The old race viewer is the 'best' way to show how a GPRO race actually works. Everyone's laptime for, say, lap 49 is calculated at the same time. That's why everyone also has the same weather conditions for lap 49.
Now what was your status in lap 49 according to the old race viewer?
34. (+1) Z. Subakov (33)
+ 8:09.274 (+ 4 laps)
So by this point, it calculated 49 laptimes for you (and all 49 laptimes are shown in Race Analysis). But because it says "+4 laps", Race Summary says you were 4 laps behind at that time, so you did only 45 laps that really counted for your race distance.
EDIT:
You can also finish the entire race, but at a very slow speed. So in the last lap, lap 53, the old race viewer would say "+12 laps" for example. Race Analysis will say you did the whole race, but because you were so slow, you only get half of the money. The same happened to you today (but with less extreme numbers).

The "why" simplified: Basically because one (analysis) is geared towards giving you data of all laps (as explained by Jasper), where as the other (summary) is geared towards the race result.

Jukka explains it here why it happens
Quote ( Jukka Sireni @ March 30th 2018,23:27:40 ) Like I have said, the laps completed rule is quite strange, and the new viewer makes it even more strange.
What happens is that you get 2x lap time from laps you didn't complete, and then the amount of lap times you are behind in the end decides how many laps you are behind. This basically equals the laps you didn't cover based on race analysis + the laps you were behind at the moment of retirement.
The point you retire the game then adds 2x the leaders lap time to your time, but it still counts onto the race screen and analysis but the race summary will have it the time you did retire at, as the live race screen is based off time and not a lap by lap basis. I presume the new race screen will fix this issue (hopefully)

Thanks guys, so we cant really trust the live race screen, as its plane wrong at least for us at the bottom of the race.
|
|
|
|
|
Only if you retire at around the 90% mark
|
|
|
|
As we all know it's a well known bug. But can we do anything to clarify things? Because the 90% rule bug is mentioned on the forums almost every week.
Simple fix:
1. Change "Laps:" string to "Laps finished by leader:"
2. Add smaller "Your laps behind the leader:" string below
|
|
|
|
|
And what should be put to those? As strange as it is, it is your laps - your laps behind that decides.
|

Quote ( Jukka Sireni @ May 16th 2018,11:01:25 ) And what should be put to those?
1. The same thing as it there now.
2. virtual gap from the leader (basically blue flag number, but fixed when the leader crosses the finish line) +(#leaderlaps - #droplap) if dropped.
E: Until you drop your laps = leader laps.
|
|
|
|
I presume the number of laps shown completed equate to the leader.
So if your car has a blue flag with 4 on it ,this must mean your 4 laps behind the leader.
Its not rocket science is it?

Looks like you drove then-current fastest lap 1:19:595 on lap 21, and then one lap after that, one thousandth slower which was 1:19:596 on lap 22?

But if I try to look at friends list (or team list) I see that my fastest lap is 1:19.596 but it's slower than 1:19.595.

You're so fast you partially melted the timing equipment =]

Ah, right. Thought that was the "current lap time" column.
|
|
|
|
I reckon it has been mentioned before, but many (most? all?) commentary lines in the race have the manager names in the wrong spot.
"A attempt to overtake B" while it's actually B who attempted the overtake.
|
|
|
|
|
I've not seen that happening at all, to be honest.
|
|
|
|
I've tried to grab a few from last race replay just now, but in the replay i only see one and the same comment "X tries to overtake Y but does not succeed".... Not the more elaborate comments like "but X slams the door" or "X takes the inside" or whatever.
Is it true that the race replay only shows one type of comment?
I've definitely seen it on those other types of comments during the live race. Will try to grab a few screenshots next race.

Quote ( Gordon Douglas @ March 4th 2018,17:42:31 ) In the race replay / live screen there is one sentence where the names of the drivers have been swapped.
see here:
Lap 18 - Turn 16
Gordon Douglas fights hard but Argiris Lostre has a much higher exit speed and takes the place
I overtook Argiris Lostre and went from 8th to 7th.
Well, yes I did report something like that a while ago, but didn´t seem to bother or interest anybody so I have stopped looking.
If required I´ll bring more occurences as I see them.
|

|

Thanks Gordon.
I'll also keep an eye on them in the upcoming races, as i'm pretty sure there's more commentary lines suffering from the same `issue` :)
|

I have seen that too Miel. I just thought it was an event that I had missed:)
|
|
|
|

Comments are old ones in replay if you turn corner names off. Itested some time ago sector based comments. I thought someone would notice them and comment. As no one did I forgot them there. :)

For pro, in the end of the list under dots, it's not showing the right place for me. (btw, it's not an hourly updated statistic)
Best managers (by best car levels)
194. Nuno Toscano Pro - 20
195. Peter Thompson Pro - 1
196. Fers Hungaro Pro - 4
197. Bruno Silva Pro - 5
198. Romulo Moraes Pro - 8
199. Thomas Uvyn Pro - 15
200. Jordan Day Pro - 18

195. Nevzat Kasapoglu Pro - 24
The same problem does not exist in expenditures, which is an hourly updated stat. -Also we cant check the same problem exist in sponsor or S&F stat. -

I did not want to show ties (as they are not visible otherwise), but your own position takes ties into account. So you are tied 195th, but didn't fit to the page.

Economy graph, when looking at via mobile (android browser)
When you hover over the line it tells you something like: aa $10.000.000
It always says aa instead of the race where that point is located
