Since the driver is software it could be IT. Or nothing. "Force way to the front" and "Maintain position".
Saves server space.

Quote ( Tymoteusz Wojnarowski @ June 28th 2021,14:12:24 ) it can be written in English to include both genders "his" is In this context somewhat futile

Seconded
Quote ( Tymoteusz Wojnarowski @ June 28th 2021,14:12:24 ) For example in the Polish translations of GPRO, these sentences are written in a way that no specific gender is mentioned. btw: Not the only language which has already been done in such way :)

I only know a bit of german apart from Polish and English, and I checked and didn't see any "er/sie/es" in there.

Can confirm for German, it's worded without mentioning the driver at all, so no gendered pronouns. (Literally: "force a way to the front"). French has the nice benefit that their possessive pronoun depends on the grammatical gender of the noun being possessed (i.e. the car), instead of the possessing person. .
Quote ( Tibor Szuromi @ June 28th 2021,15:06:21 ) We have emancipation. There are no (linguistic) genders.
Of course there are grammatical genders. What do you think the whole debate about pronouns is about? It's just that most words in English don't have a grammatical gender. The most notable exceptions being pronouns, i.e. he/she/etc, with "they" generally accepted as a gender-neutral term.

Quote ( Zé Pedro Paula @ June 28th 2021,17:20:35 ) "Force way to the front" Completely agree with the sentiment; would suggest “Force to the Front”, also omitting the word way - it seems better grammatically.

@Vladimir Alexandrov (R3)
Just for the stataholics, could we have a stat for "Highest ammount of money held at any point / end of season" and have a rank for that in the statistics page? Just think it would be an interesting stat

So I was taking a look at the tutorial for the main office, and I noticed that there isn't any focus on the forums. I think new players might not realize the great community behind those forums, and the tutorial might help players and encourage them to take a look and maybe become an active user of the forums. What do you think? It shouldnt be hard to implement, and would help to sustain one of the (in my opinion) most important parts GPRO.

It's a great idea that they find the ruling niche the fast as they can and teach how to ignore topics so they can find any good info in the middle of the noise.

great one Ric. and maybe we can force them to play 1 ''forum game'' at least to sign new driver :P

Once again we have Silverstone and once again I'm beyond belief that we are still using old layout.
It's not like it debuted recently, it was build in 2010 (2011 if you count change of start/finish line)! I get lack of any changes to physics of how things work, I get lack of new circuits, but this stopped being funny long time ago.
We had Paul Ricard this season and it also uses classic layout. Next season we have Mexico City, that also has old form despite being in F1 since 2015.
Maybe let's change Hockenheim to pre-2002 version then? Or maybe even bring original Spa! /s
Really, l think this is the easiest thing to make that will help GPRO stay relevant and "up-to-date".

I say keep the old track layout, it's a classic. GPRO isn't about realism or keeping up to date with F1. We're racing on the Nurburgring and the Indianapolis Oval. That should be clue enough for everyone that GPRO isn't F1 and doesn't want to be.
Might be an idea to also include the new layout as a new track, if it proves to be an interesting track that brings something new to the table. It would probably also be a good idea to mark the outdated tracks with a slight name change. "Silverstone (classic)" or "Silverstone (1997)" comes to mind.
What we should definitely not do is keep the old track properties and show the new track layout, that would be inconsistent and confusing. If we get a track update, that should reflect also in the racing properties of the track.

Crazy idea. This is not thought through.

I don't mind using tracks, that don't exist anymore or aren't in F1, but if we are using something, that is in real life it would be nice if we "stay relevant".

So, Paul Ricard did used to be the "current" version of the circuit, however they realised that the length and laps of the circuit didnt actually correspond to the layout, so changed it to the short circuit used in the late 80's
If you change the layout of the circuit, you'll alter the laps for the track, you'll have to alter the setup, the tyre wear and fuel load of the new circuit, that puts everyone's data that people have been gaining out the window. Aesthetically, it doesnt make a difference, hence why in the life screen, its actually the new circuit and not the old one, but data wise and the fact the characteristics would change potentially drastically in the case of Silverstone (it'd be more power for sure) then its just not viable for everyone with lots of data

You missed the point...
As I said in original post, updating circuits seems to be easiest way to not fall into total obscurity. I'm 99,9% sure, that even in 2031 (if GPRO will stay alive), everything will work just like it did in 2019.

Another point i shall add, this isn't F1. GPRO can do whatever and use whatever layer they would like do Also when most of the old layout tracks were added in 2005, especially in the case of Silverstone. Plus, Spa, Barcelona, Brands Hatch, Singapore, Imola, Portimao, Monza, technically Adelaide, and Probably Abu Dhabi and Melbourne, all use the old/wrong layout of the circuit. Its just not a necessity to change something when they have much more bigger fish to fry
Plus if it isn't broke, don't fix it :P
