When in a race, next to the current lap times sometimes a exclamation mark will come up inisde a triangle. I used to think this used to come on only when u came off the track, but I've noticed it comes on randomly?

And why when u have it come up that lap wont count if it's your best lap time?

I've looked in the handbook and theres nothing there.

It means you've come off the road at some point during the lap.

Or hit something.

Its basicly like a dirty lap, if you have hit something, had all 4 wheels off the track, used rewind or driven behind someone it will come up, sometimes it also does the next lap as well incase you get an advantage before starting your clean lap.

Its difficult to avoid in full races unless your miles infront or behind.

When drafting it comes on. On the results screen there's 2 half circles to decipher why it came on but theres no explanation of what they mean

Ah, that makes sense. But I've noticed even when it's there, sometimes it'll still count as my best lap, and sometimes not. What's all that about?!

Isn't the half circle for abs or tc, manual/ automatic? Basically just driving aids?
