Racing Groove and Holding Your Line

The images below have been provide as examples of drivers holding their lines when in traffic. Please note the dark area of the track, AKA the groove.

As you can see, the groove is usually 3 car widths, allowing two drivers to run side-by-side at speed without incident, as long as each of them holds their line.

In the following examples the driver on the outside has given well more than adequate room. Drivers are responsible for using their own discretion and awareness of the situation in choosing their lines and giving room for other drivers.
