It happens pretty much every other benchmark, so i'd be very surprised if it doesnt happen for everyone. It looks like its an anti-pile-up type prevention put in place, maybe its purely for the benchmark so it can always complete a lap... dunno, but it removes some realism.
What happens is everyone chugs down to the hairpin, things slow down cars stop and rather than squabble and jutter their way out, the system thinks rather than them get stuck and be unable to move, lets cheat and let them pass through each other and get things moving again.
I've done maybe 15 benchmarks trying to get some sort of sensible crossfire setup, and it turns out disabling it makes it run at double the framerate and bizarrely enables Dx11. But ive seen it half a dozen times at least, so i dont see as it'd be hard for anyone to replicate within 2-4 attempts, just look 4-8 cars ahead and if it comes to a halt for even a split-second they'll do some form of pass-through, minor or major like the previous screenshots show or this one shows in the far left.


Wouldnt have expected to see you on here, saves me registering on the codies site...
I happened to make a mistake earlier today while registering my access code to an GfWL account, is there any chance that you guys have the ability to terminate a code, release it, put it on a different account or something that would fix this?? I seemingly have 2 accounts, one with shall we say an 'offensive' name, which the XBL staff werent too impressed with when i contacted them this lunchtime :D they said they couldnt address it, and only you guys were able to do this, and 'maybe they can give you a new key, or sell you one cheap'. Ideally just releasing the key or modifying who owns it or something like that. I can provide photos of the instruction manual etc and the account its registered to.

Ideally i'd like it on the account i never thought to try (MSN account, which has F1 2010 on it), im not even aware of ever creating the one its stuck on, so wondering if gmail releases unused/abused accounts and ive somehow registered it, requested a pw change to get in, and cos it only asks for email, pw & key i've no idea its not even my account... whatever... wasnt going to bother registering on the codies site to ask, but seeing as your here im hoping maybe it can be addressed. MS/XBL say they cant move it (or similar) and now im stuck with one account for 2010, and another offensively named one for 2011, and dont particularly fancy driving around with it (actually, im not fussed, but i cant imagine XBL or yourselves would be impressed). Its not offensive to the point of being unable to post it on here, but it isnt wonderful.

Thanks for the info, have passed it on to the team.

As for the GFWL issue I'd initially send an email to our customer services team basically saying what you've told me above. The email address is [email protected] . Personally from the info you've told me I would have said it was something MS would have to sort out but they've obviously said something different. Hopefully our CS team can help you out.
 
Why has the nose aerials been removed? I feel all messed up in cockpit now without a sense of balance and judgement. This is the kind of stunts the lesser modders created in rFactor.

Why has chassis balance been removed... anti-rollbars only now.

Brake bias hasn't changed one bit. 40's front still understeers something rotten and no snap oversteer.

6th gear corner with more rear wing than front (FSONE2009 setup style) with all rear suspension/rollbars set to low for more rear end grip and I'm nearly in the wall with massive loss of drive due to somewhat sideways.

Sounds like it's your driving mate :(
 
I never had this problem with FSONE09 and Ferrari Virtual Academy. Only time that would somewhat happen is 1 - high up in 3rd gear.
 
One of the most expensive graphics cards with a small monitor :confused:

Would be like having a monitor that only supported 800 x 600 and a voodoo2 graphics card like my mate had a few years back

Feel free to come buy me three 27"s, cheers mate!
