They happen in single race and multiplayer race as well, but only in the
Race session, and only very infrequently.

1) yes -- electrics went out during a yellow just before the drop of the
green.
2) No -- I haven't tried the championship series yet -- They still won't
give me my yellow rookie stripe. I'm surprised the team owner still
lets me race. I've totalled more cars than a decade of CART racing.

The engine just died. I just coasted into the pits. Hoping against
hope that my excellent pit crew could get it fixed. No such luck! I
threw my helmet in disgust and pressed "A" = DNF.

I coasted down all the way to the straightaway after turn two and
finally stop on the grass area. Good thing it is just a game.
Otherwise, it would've been a long walk back to the pit!

This brings up an interesting question, are the breakdowns completely
random, or are they due to driver error?
They're random.

Is it possible to have the crew fix the damage? Can they replace the
'black box' or do other minor repairs or do you just automatically DNF
because of a failure?
PS - If your crew can't fix it, then add that to ICR3!!
