The GP2 manual did not describe what sort of damage the indicator indicates. I was wondering
what is my car damage if the centre 2 strips lit?

Your plank rubs against the ground over the bumps. If it wears more than 1mm
it will become red on the display and you suddenly experience _much_ more drag.

It should rub against the ground sometimes (not too much though) - otherwise
your ride-height is too high and you miss out on "free" downforce.

If the stripe flashes yellow on and off it shows there is some plank
wear at that time.  If it is constantly lit red your plank is below
legal limits and you will get a large drag penalty.
