I apologise about the gears, the game migrated to me, I set the game up as the rules suggested, I didn't manage to read the bit about auto gears, although I do remember thinking about whether I should have left it on auto anyway, but decided to stick with the posted setup.
 
Well my race went really well, wrecked the car in qualifying and started in 8th, sat back going into turn 2 and waited for the carnage, picked my way through that and up to 5th, then on the third lap, i out braked myself and hit the barrier and wrecked my car again. oh well, hope the rest of you enjoyed your race.
 
Great race

I had a hard race against Zomacher,I had so mutch pressure ,and it was like 25 laps that I had to keep him behind,somethimes I was making a little gap and sudenly he went back into my back wing,I couldnt push my car that mutch because I was affraid to outbreak myself,but I think my race pace was not that bad,but zomacher was quicker ,he breaked mutch later then me ,but my accelaration was better then his.
Last round at the beginning of sector 3 my fuel was empty,I was lucky that zomacher his fuel was empty to,that mean he pushed his car aswell in the race.

 
This Spain's second Grand Prix, do you think its time to move the European Grand Prix and if so where would you like to see it go?

I think the oval at Rockingham would be a good idea, shouldn't be too many first corner incidents there.

Canada saw a lot of incidents last time out, what if anything are you going to do to avoid getting reported?

HRT are working on an invisibility cloak for the car which can be turned on if the car is involved in anything which would be deemed as against the rules. I must add though that HRT drivers don't need this as we are all clean drivers, we only use the invisibility when entering the changing room of the pit babes.

Fuel, is an important part of this weekends race. Have you worked out a strategy or will you just see how it goes on the day?

I'm planning on cruising round at the back smiling at all the lovely Spanish ladies and then taking the win once everyone else grinds to a halt.

What do you think your chances are this race?


The chances are very good of me being at the race and taking part but don't ask me if i'll finish or even where. :D
 
This Spains second Grand Prix, do you think its time to move the Eurppean Grand Prix and if so where would you like to see it go?

Yes, I think the Eurppean GP has been in Valencia too long. It's time to choose a new track - in fact I think it should move every year. I think Madrid would be a good choice to start, and then Seville. The third year they should race in Iceland, to improve the likelihood of a wet race and to make engineers design engines that work in ashy conditions. The year after that the European GP should be held somewhere in the USA, because the US hasn't hosted the European GP before.

Canada saw a lot of incidents last time out, what if anything are you going to do to avoid getting reported?

First and foremost, I'm not going to record my race. Also, I'm going to be very careful only to contact other cars when I'm behind them and there are other cars around and it can't be proven I was responsible. Finally, I have some money set aside to bribe anyone who I feel has a good case against me and/or the stewards.

I do have a strategy set out that we're going to be tweaking as the week goes on and we get more testing done, but I'm not going to tell you what it is.

What do yu think your chances are this race?

I feel this is a track that we could be strong at, but I think we need to downplay our chances given the fact I won't be able to attend the race... Obviously it's going to be difficult to make up championship points this way, so our focus is damage limitation. We've figured out that if no one else shows up to race we won't lose ground on our competitors in the championship, so we have to hope everyone else is busy too. Our team principal was talking about some sort of Code Pink strategy, but they haven't told me what that is about.

 
I don't think the cockpit view is a must because Codemasters has f**ked up the cameras!

I have to say, that i was pretty happy with the T-cam, but really want to learn to drive with the cockpit view... But I think that you are very close to the ground, and having trouble seeing past the nose of the car because you are so far down... But hopefully I will get more comfortable with more practice.
And must say that I really HATE that "stick" on the front of the car, cant see anything because of it.

Yes move it to Nintendo Land....That way I will get help from my buddy..." Donkey Kong "

I plan to disguise my car as a Renault....:)

Fuel, is an important part of this weekends race. Have yu worked out a strategy or will you just see how it goes on the day ?

My race is usually at least two laps shorter than the winner so I see no fuel issue.

What do yu think your chances are this race?


It's all about the carrots......I need a new allotment...I hope I don't have to smuggle them in..


 
In every other racing-game I use cockpit but in this game it's a big nono! I don't feel the sense of speed and on some cars the positioning is pretty bad...
If i would be able to mod the views (which I can't since this is PS3) I would drive with cockpit.

The T-cam is absolutely fine, works brilliantly!
 
Renault has a spycam on their front and back end, watch out guy's you will be filmed during this race, i hope everyone is so considerate of other races, im sorry but us G3 races have a reputation for smashes on the First Corner.... you guy's better be extra careful in the first corner during the race, and please be considerate of driver's in Qualifying to.!

Thanks :)
 
Sounds interesting :)

Just to make it sure. 19:00 GMT, its 20:00 BST?

Yes Kaido, 19.00 GMT IS 20.00 BST.

I'm glad many others think, like me, that this is going to be fun and challenging!! After i posted it, i immediately realised that i am going to have to re-learn tracks i haven't been on for 6 months AND learn quickly the half dozen i've never been on.
Well if Mr. M Schumacher can do it, then so can i (as we obviously have a similar amount of ability)...
