Lap 1 turn 2 and everyone is through, its then on the way out of turn 5 where zomacher spins it on the curb, goes into the side of italianred, mufas hits the back of zomacher who has rebounded across the track and I get a drive through penalty for tagging the back of mufas. locking wheels with italianred on the run down to the bridge, I lift off as its obvious he isnt gonna, and then in an effort not to tap him braking for the bridge, I lose my brake point and fly past him on the inside locked up. I am sorry for that italian, I gave it back to you on the bridge.
Exiting the bridge I get a whack up the back from the flea - not a problem. Phew - thats all on lap 1.

2nd lap and ive pulled a gap to flea, until I hit the barrier into turn 2. He is then right up my chuff, I go deep defending into turn 4 and feel obliged to let him pass me for want of coming back onto track and causing an accident. I think he must have lifted off as we are then side by side down to the bridge, and guess what - I do the same thing again. Narrowly avoid hitting the corner of the bridge and I try to take a tight line, as now tbbassman, flea, misoch, toto, and rzzzzz go past me. So now im second to last just ahead of Jan.

Run down to turn 12 and all hell is breaking loose there! Flea and tbbassman make contact and spins flea into my path who I hit, and I think Jan must have got him side on too. Down to turn 17 and toto, tbbassman and rzzzzz are all off the track, I come round but have to hit the brakes and swerve to avoid rzzzzzz who decides to rejoin the track right into the racing line where I am, and then keep going so I have a crap line into the turns and end up taking some off road action. As im off the track, I have to lift off and let toto past so thats a bit of a shame as his off caused me some places. Never mind, s**t happens.

So I take my penalty, dead last, after a few laps I smash an orange wing which made the car handle like pap. I keep on trucking along until i catch misoch and we fight for a number of laps, trading places and paint along the way. Apart from that, not much more entertainment was to be had. I took some more places but cant remember who, where, when or why. I pulled out some gap and pitted for options with about 9 laps to go. Fuel light flashing with 3 laps to go, fortunately I had been lapped in the pits so one less lap probably saved my a**.

So, qualified 5th, ended the race 6th - so really not too bad considering I was last place for a while.
Fastest race lap = 1:39.582

Hopefully I will get slightly better luck in the race next week. I seem to be getting worse on this track.

Sorry to anyone I tapped, no worries to anyone who tapped me, and thanks to Jan for hosting!

[Richard Alexander]

Yeah that tight corner after the bridge on lap one, I was a little too ambitious I think. Tried to go round the inside while you, devil, went round the outside. I underestimated how tight it was and tapped your back right so I let you back in front. I think that was the right thing to do there.

Would be interested to see other people's footage of these incidents

edit: saying that and seeing misoch's video, looks like a mass jumble due to ghosting

 

[Karl Raper]

Wot time was it ???????

 

[Richard Alexander]

Hey Bruce and Alan. Red Bull and Sauber are left so do you want to decide between yourselves? It will be the car you are in for all the coming races

 

[David Palavandishvili]

Nice race friends. I qualified 4th, and at start I was with SuperSoft, and all three drivers front of me were with Soft tyres. after start, at 1st lap Zomacher spined and crashed to italianred, then blocked my way, I have not chance to brake, it was so fast, and I crashed him and lost front wing, but I was lucky, I becomу 1st, but my wing was brocken and I lost my 1 position. at last laps I was so unlucky on lap 28 I ran out of fuel

I'll take RBR then, but i saw Tracy request it first. ALSO, if Bruce has raced before and is more known to RD folks than myself, it is only fair he gets the choice. I am online in F1 2010 right now if anyone wants to add me to gfwl. Cheers

 

[Richard Alexander]

oops, so he did! I guess it's between Toro Rosso and the Sauber then.

CHS, This is how I used to do it with open office.

Drag from the cell outside and above the image, make sure you select the entire picture with at least one full cell showing. Now use 'edit-copy'. Go into photoshop and select new image, this should now make a new blank image the same size as area you just copied. Use 'edit-paste' then clip to the right size which is simple. Hope this helps.

 

[Alan Milne]

Ill say Toro then, and as i said above, open to change.

 

[Nicholas Farr]

Sign me up! Nicholas Farr / Grizzly_Bear123 / Sauber

 

[Craig Whitmore]

I have added you all in, Have been away, only got back recently.

 

[Indrek Maeots]

Whata race...lol,that was fun,first time i really raced someone on track online,really nice battle we had ther whit Justin an Spearhead,that was cool,mr Andric did hes thing ,ther somewher in front,lol

 

[Justin McAleer]

i had a good start crept pass indrek into the 1st chicane after andric squeezed him off the iside line, then i bump andric in the middle of the corner as he was recovering from the barriers

i had abit fo a surprise into the bridge section, got turned upside down by someone LOL.
i reset and managed to catch spear and indrek had a nice battle with indrek and managed to get past after indrek did a vettle into turn 4.

good race guys.

those assist settings wer good, i was still adjusting to the braking zones but managed to keep a good pace up aswell.

 

[Andrew Shepherd]

sorry guys but i've had a tonne of revision this week so im unable to make it.

 

[Nikola Andric]

Indrek, I apologise for the nudge m8! The mirros are unfortunaley a little misleading sometimes. :/ Had also snap oversteer at the first chicane when I probably when a bit too much on throttle when turning. After that it was quite comfortable till' I got red tyres and pitted.
Had a poor qualifying, was 1 sec quicker on second lap but managed to screw it. Still pole with a 1.39.3

About the assists, the only one I have problem is with Pit limiter (who figured?), haven't learned when I should press it or not, lol!

 

[Scott Webber]

No wonder people are loosing interest in this league.

7 days gone by and still no publication of the last race results.

how dare you, that is total disrespect, if anyone is losing itnerest it is you, i am offended by your reply, James if it wasn't for me CHS and andrew this league may have shut down a month or 2 ago, that is absolutly rude for you to say that.

Do you have nay idea how much work and effort let alone time is put into this? let alone the scores, if your so inpatience do it your damm self.

 

[Darren Bentley]

GOD SAKE, I FORGOT AGAIN! Been busy editing my singleplayer race and completly forgot about this race, Oh well I have started doing time trials without some assists anyway, but for now I am racing with a lot of them still
