Forced Passing Explanation

Mail Bag:

Hi Doug, 

I really enjoy CFR but I was wondering if you would be kind enough to explain forced passes to me? ...  

Regards, 

Levi

Thanks Levi!  I will try...


I thought of this later, but in the scenario at the end of that video where the car paid 2 wear and a chance for the corner but was then forced to slow to 140 because the forced pass failed... the Tyrrell can stay at 140 for the rest of the corner but can not accelerate again inside the corner.  Even though it paid for that speed earlier, the fact that the car was forced to late brake inside the corner resets that.
