GP2->Now I'm really fargin' angry!

Hey wanna get really mad?
I spent 30 minutes to qualify on the front grid of Japan
(non-championship/25% race). On the 11th lap (half way). I'm in 2nd
chasing Hill through Last Corner when I get into the COOLest 4 wheel
drift heading onto the main straight and pass the Williams in front of
the crowd. The drift must have lasted 7 or 8 seconds, so I think *I
Gotta see that again!*.
This is the bad part...
 I replayed it once and it was fine. Then I replayed it from the front

and other views. When I was done I selected HOME and it wouldn't give
me the***pit view, only views from exterior cameras. At this point I
develop a cold sweat at the realization that the manual doesn't help
AT ALL and the race must be lost!
Anyway, has anyone else done this or am I the
only one?

The "replay" feature of GP2 is a laugh (if things like the above didn't
happen).  Usually, the best way to get back into the***pit is to get
your car in view and press the "right arrow" key.  This should get you
back into your***pit. This should work, but there may be a bug in this
lame excuse for a replay feature.  "Home" to get you back to your car
and "right cursor arrow" to get you back into your***pit.

What I usually do is mistakenly unpause the game when what I really
wanted to do is re-rack the replay.  Doesn't work very well when I'm in
someone else's car :(

BTW:  It's really fun to drive the course from the "nose" camera angle.
No distractions from the dash :)

I thought HOME gets you back to your car and the RIGHT ARROW KEY gets
you in the***pit?
