How Do I Find My Incidents in Iracing

Find out how do i find my incidents in iRacing — clear steps for iRacing beginners. See incident counts in-sim and on the member site then review replays to improve.


If you’ve ever finished a race and wondered where those mysterious “incidents” came from, you’re not alone. New to iRacing? I’ll walk you through exactly where to look, why it matters, and one simple next step so you don’t feel lost.

Quick Answer

In-sim: check the session summary and the top-right HUD during a session — your current incident count is shown there. On the iRacing Member Site: log in, go to Results & Stats → My Race Results (or Sessions), open the specific result and view the incident total and details.

This is the exact place beginners look first. After a session ends, the simulator shows an immediate incident count on the results screen. For a fuller breakdown (lap, type — e.g., contact or off-track), use the Member Site result details — that’s where iRacing records the incident log and gives you the context you need to learn.

Simple Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Finish your session and watch the in-sim results screen — your incidents are listed next to your finishing position.
  2. To see specifics later, open the iRacing Member Site and log in.
  3. Click Results & Stats → My Race Results (or My Sessions) and find the event.
  4. Open the event’s details page — it shows your incident total and often lists incidents by lap/type.
  5. Download or open the replay in the simulator to find the exact moment the incident occurred.

These steps cover the basics for iRacing beginners who want to know where incidents live and how to review them.

Quick Pro Tips (common mistakes + fixes)

  • Mistake: Only checking the in-sim number and assuming you know the cause. Fix: Always watch the replay for the lap indicated.
  • Mistake: Confusing “incidents” with safety rating. Fix: Incidents feed your Safety Rating, but check the License page to see the bigger picture.
  • Tip: Enable session chat and use the scoreboard to spot incidents during the race so you can correct behavior immediately.
  • Tip: Small off-track slides count. Practice traction control and entry speed in test sessions — it reduces incidental points fast.

When to Ask for Help

If an incident looks unfair (wrong replay or server glitch), or you can’t find details, ask for help. iRacing support and community resources can help — and iRacing Discord communities are a useful, friendly place to post your replay and get feedback from iRacing veterans.

FAQs

Q: Do incidents disappear after the session?
A: No — incidents are recorded per session and affect your Safety Rating until enough clean laps improve it.

Q: Can I see which lap an incident happened on?
A: Yes. The Member Site result details or the in-sim replay will show the lap and let you scrub to the exact moment.

Q: Do incidents always come from contact with other cars?
A: No. Incidents include off-track excursions, collisions with walls, or contact with other cars — different types may affect your rating differently.

Q: Can I contest an incident?
A: There isn’t a formal appeal system for most incidents; your best route is to review the replay and, if you suspect a server or scoring error, contact iRacing support with the replay.

Final Takeaways

Finding incidents is simple: check the in-sim summary right after a session and use the Member Site for detailed logs. Next step: open your last replay, find the incident lap, and watch it slowly — that one practice will teach you more than reading any list. For more iRacing tips, practice short drills in test sessions and lean on community channels if you’re unsure.
