Weird thing just happened in GP4.
I crashed entering the pits at Spa by misjudging the entry road to the pits
and being too far over to the left. The car hit the kerb and catapulted
over into the barrier in the bus stop and then re-entered the pitroad
entrance with barriers either side. I tried to drive off and couldn't move,
so the marshals came and hoisted my car away.
I then returned to the pit garage. Only problem was I couldn't rejoin the
track 'cos my pitcrew were all waiting for me to return still. I watched
the pitcrew guy walk out of my pit in readiness for me to drive down the
pitlane and all the pitcrew standing round in the pit waiting for me. It
looked hilarious with two pit crew guys stood outside my pit staring off
into space.
The game obviously got screwed up with its routine that puts the pit guys
into their positions for me to drive into the pit and didn't figure that I
had crashed out in the pit and been automatically put into my pit. Only way
out was to stop the session.

I once went in to park during qualifying or practice. I do the lil turn to
aim my rear at the garage, my engine switches off, but noone bothers pulling
me in. Guess they got fed up with me and decided to leave me out on the
tarmac.
