If you lose your connection, just keep on driving - Simon Meisinger - 04-11-2018
In a race right now all the other cars suddenly disappeared and I thought I lost my connection again (as it happened to me in the last three of four races), so I stopped immediately out of frustration but it turned out to be just a pretty big lag everyone else was affected by as well.
After two seconds the other cars appeared again and crashed into me (I was standing still right on the start-finish-straight). So if that happens to you, I'd say just keep on driving for another corner or two so you can be sure it's not just a lag.

I always keep driving unless AC shows the "connection unavailable" message.
I spent years playing old online games where people jumping in and out of existence was normal, heck in some cases it became regarded as skill to know where a vanishing player actually was

exactly...NR 2003 online would show back up with a car on top of you when the lag finished. I've kept driving for 5 secs at least, until it notifies you that the server is unavailable.

It's happened so many times to me that I can now predict when I'm going to get permanently disconnected from the server.
