Today I've been angry for the first time because of iRacing. Stupid drivers ruined my entire race, the first one with a solid number of drivers in the field and many drivers of my level.
I qualified with the worst time, but it granted me a start in the middle of the field. It was amazing and for the first time ever I felt like I'm part fo the race. The first crash came at the end of the first lap at the final chicane in Spa. 4x contact, but I was able to recover and went on. The second backmarker hit me at the end of third lap, final chicane again (and I don't brake too early). Another 4x contact, damaged suspenison, ended 180° on the road. I'm not very experienced in these things, so I was waiting for a while until drivers pass, then I decided to get a tow. 50 secs tow, and another 30 seconds pit stop (I forgot to turn services off). So I ended at the end of the pack, nothing I could do. I managed to finish the race with no more incidents at all, because I was driving slowly and carefully (2-3 seconds slower), so I managed to get +0.05 SR anyway. But it could be... let's say 12th place, 3 inc, +0,25 SR.
Look at the replay please, did I do anything wrong?

EDIT:
Second race was amazing, 6 inc because there was a lot of pressure until the end.
Third race, bumped and spinned twice (luckily, in a matter of five seconds, so just one 4x). Finished 20/21 (had to tow safely).
Fourth race, disaster. Bump from the back in T1 at Spa during the first lap (oh yes, 50 meters behind the start line). Had to tow, 3 minutes. Unbelieveable.

This is really a problem. If there werent these drivers, I'd be a king of the safety. Usually I don't do over two or three offtracks during a race, depends on situation.
CONCLUSION: I won't qualify anymore until I hit at least class B. I'm celarly faster than the other guys, so I'll pass them safely instead of getting bumped a couple of times every race.
ANOTHER EDIT: Got hit form behind twice in qualification (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). 8 inc points, perfectly clear as far as my driving is concerned. Am I doing something wrong or are people SO AMAZINGLY STUPID to not know every driver has different braking points? Not to mention I got torpedoed once, there's no excuse for that. I've lost SR for the first time in my life (-0.03).
