Cars from same team pitting on same lap

I have had the odd issue with cars from the same team coming in to the pits together on the same lap. Is there any way to prevent this in the magic data or anything? Would appreciate any thoughts. Many thanks.

Are they Lewis and Fernando?

Thanks for that. I've got the editor but have been amending pit stops directly in the md, maybe thats the problem.

Thanks - I appreciate the feedback. I think I have everything correct. Below is md from Imola 1991 run yesterday and both Williams's and both Ferrari's pitted on the same lap. It ruined the natural order of the race.

45 ; pitstop group 1 %
29 ; stop 1
7 ; pit window 1
0 ;

55 ; pitstop group 2 %
26 ; stop 1
5 ; pit window 1
44 ; stop 2
3 ; pit window 2

0 ; pitstop group 3 %
0 ; stop 1
0 ; pit window 1
0 ; stop 2
0 ; pit window 2
0 ; stop 3
0 ; pit window 3

Any other thoughts appreciated.

the problem is thats the 1stoper and 2stoper are in the same window in your file.

the 1 stop window 29-36
the 2 stop window (first stop) 26-31

in round 29,30,31 come 1 and 2 stopers in the box

this is my kanada 2001 magic file :

75 ; pitstop group 1 %
32 ; stop 1
6 ; pit window 1
0 ;
0 ;
0 ;
0 ;
0 ;
25 ; pitstop group 2 %
21 ; stop 1
4 ; pit window 1
44 ; stop 2
4 ; pit window 2
0 ;
0 ;
0 ;
0 ;
0 ; pitstop group 3 %
0 ; pit window 1
0 ; stop 2
0 ; pit window 2
0 ; stop 3
0 ; pit window 3


i hope you see your problem,the group2 first stop is too late!
