I don't actually buy that explanation. Someone who got a red flag finished in 18.376.

I crossed the line at 18.383, and passed. That means I was safe by 1 millisecond? I had a faster time that red flagged, so I think they are looking in the wrong place.

There are two likely places they are missing.

The first is where the car is completely over the white line, but still on the curb. I think they set this to be off-track, but there is likely a validation in the lap that sees the car on the curb and doesn't trigger an automatic red flag, but does fail you for the event.

The second place is not crossing the finish line completely in between the flags. We are used to driving right through the cones and the flags in autocrosses, but I think that whoever coded this event mapped that as being off track and that fails you for the event if you are not completely between the flags.
