[Lewis Fergusson]

is it ok if I prequali with default skin as the skin pack downloads are not done yet?

 

[Oliver Wickens]

Should be free to race this weekend.

Sadly, I've always avoided this circuit so it will be tough getting near the pace during the alotted 4-5 days of Pre-Qual. But hopefully there arnt many Macau specialists out there so i can scrape into group 1

The name......Henrik Horvath springs to mind,get ready for a chevy shocker time from him i think.

 

[Christopher Aponte]

Henrik is an alien on the street tracks like Macau....
so i won't be surprised if he win 1 or hell even both races

 

[Gilbert Estorninho]

I am strongly against the 20 sec. of penalty, which was giving by RD investigation team after the race at Monza!
The incident (114) that I been involved was caused by the misjudgment of Jacek or too cautious from 1st corner. Breaking far before the normal breakpoint and it shows totally exaggerate or over reacted on replay. Leaving with the gap almost from 2 cars he has in front of. Actually I did try to pass him from right side, but how could I possible avoid such an unexpected breaking maneuver?
Causing me with several unavoidable collisions of cars and damaging my suspension even before I could make to the 1st corner.
I have lost control, sliding me over to the grass them hitting to the barrier and luckily I was able to continue the race avoiding more traffic from the exit of the 1st corner.
I admit that the incident as favor me for some position, but it was unintentionally.
And now RD has decided to me responsible from others driver's mistakes?
Honestly, what the hell of investigation you guys are working with?
On the 5th lap I was hit by Gary Lennon and push me out. I could get a stop n go by that!
So why nothing has been done for him, not even a warning from such an aggressive passing maneuver?​

Same case with Marco Ho, another driver that push him out at the 7th lap. It didn't a word from RD?
WHY?
ARE THEY YOUR FRIENDS?
If this type of cases continue from RD judging unfairly We drivers from Macau & HONG KONG will definitely quit from the RDWTCC league

I checked the replay of our time together in that race Gilbert,its unfortunate you see any problems with this pass,i put my car 100% beside yours on the entry to the 2nd chicane,i dont think i can be blamed if you choose to turn in as if you are alone on the track.
I also chose to make no mention of when i got completely along side you on the run to Lesmo 1 on the previous lap and found myself being squeezed off the track onto the grass a bit,also before that some slightly erratic defencive weaving...​

Regarding the post by Gilbert

Firstly, if you are unhappy about the judgements of Race Directors, then make your comments directly to RD's via email or PM. Public rants like this one just shows your own behaviour to others.
Secondly, we reject any indication of bias towards competitors, we have specific review procedures to protect against that and to ensure that all decisions are made fairly and independently based solely on replay evidence and reports to the Race Directors. If some incidents were not penalised to your satisfaction, then that may well have been due to your not reporting the incident. If it wasn't investigated and you didn't post an incident report, then don't complain.
I have no intentions of justifying Race Director decisions against your ridiculous accusations. If you feel that way, by all means feel free to race elsewhere.

Overall. this WTCC League has demonstrated some very poor behaviour and driving standards throughout the League by some people. We have continually warned people to improve and to take more care and respect, but little changed, in fact it got worse. So we started to increase the penalties and warnings.

If people are unhappy about receiving penalties in this League, then they should first take a long hard look at their own performances, before piublically blaming RD's.
