    Hi,
    where I can change the seconds to be added to the final race time when a driver finishes the race with a penalty pending?
    for example, for a stop & go 10 seconds not served before the end of a race, at final time I would add 20 second penalty, etc.

    And where can I modify the penalty for a false start or blue flags?
    Now assign a DT, I would replace it with S & Go

    Thanks

    The default penalty for unserved stop & go appears to be -1 lap. At least that's what happened to me once.

    thank you all.
    I know that the default penalty for unserved S&Go is a lap to end race, but I would understand if it is possible, (rfm? hdv ?), add the seconds and not a lap.
    for example for unserved DT the penalty is 25s to end race time.

    Pretty sure there's no way to configure penalties in that way.

    Adding seconds would not work very well in all scenarios. For example, consider a situation where the leader has lapped the car behind the penalized car, but not the penalized car. Since the car behind the penalized car is a lap behind and will never finish his final lap, no matter how many seconds you add, it won't make a difference in the results in that instance. So I think the one lap penalty is there by design. Otherwise you could cheat and gain positions by not serving the penalty.
