looking forward to this one tonight!! haven't done a 75%er for a while. the extra distance should be great practise for the league as well. but it would be good if we could get 1 or 2 more peeps. oh well, the imporatnt thing is the "cream" of RD is there...:D
 
Listen people, we have to slow down this fights of words and be adults, we started this championship very well, and like gentlemans all assume are clean racers! And i want believed we all are, but in this last races the behavior is going down a little, and i believe some of us do mistakes not intencional, but some show a little bad intention, what is wrong. Accidents happend, is the adrenaline, and we know when it happened on porpose or not!! Right? So lets do this championship an example, or this will became dirty and arcade, and for that i race on quick mode multiplayer.
Regards to all!!
 
And Mayers you dont know what you are talking about! You didnt see what happened there. If Darren show you the video and if was with you i certainly chance your words. But its OK, i ve already forgoten that, i believe was for his inexperience with the whell, and i enter in this game to race, because i love f1, to have fun, and make some friends not enemies. And i and Darren we are destinated to fight on track of course and be mates!!
 
Thanks for another nice race guys. Always a pleasure and very enjoyable.

My best qualifying performance of the season with my best ever GP mode time of 1:32.856.. only 1.492 from pole which is by far the closest I have got to the front in any race this season. I actually was on a faster lap on my final run but got baulked by Senna so ended up a couple of tenths down. But still well happy with the result. Of course the downside to qualifying well was that I had to start on my used options which were already at 88% so I knew I could struggle to make them last as long as I wanted in the race.

Reasonable start but I am always very cautious, especially now I am starting further up the grid and need to look both in front and behind lol. As a result I lost a couple of spots (one to the AI and I think Richard got past me too..). Was running fairly comfortably in 5th and then 4th when somebody pitted and was keeping the gap to Andrew behind me fairly consistent. The front tyres were into the yellow fairly early on but weren't causing me any problems and I was hoping I would be able to stretch it out until around lap 10 for my stop but when the right front was orange and left front went red I decided it was time to make my stop at the end of lap 9. Lost some time at Brooklands when I went slightly wide but got into the pits for a decent stop and came out in 9th with a bunch of AI up the road in front of me. The race was fairly uneventful for me at this point. I made up a couple more places to get up into 7th (getting past Andrew when I assume he made his pit stop) and closed the gap to Kovalainen from 16 seconds to around 5 with a couple of laps to go. I knew the leaders were approaching and had hoped to avoid going a lap down but they closed in on me and I decided to let Adam through by taking a wide line through Vale but took it a little too wide and ran onto the grass :S I knew Guy was not too far behind so I sat there while I waited for him to go through before rejoining the race. Of course losing so much time (around 10+ seconds I would guess) allowed Andrew to close right up on me and I knew I would have a tough time for the last couple of laps. I stretched the lead at certain points but he clawed it back at others but thankfully (for me anyway…) I kept it together and crossed the line still in front of him.

Richard any idea how far ahead of me you finished? One of my frustrations with this game is the amount of information you get on where you are in relation to other drivers. You can see the gap to First and the cars directly in front and behind you but that’s it. Also wish you could bring the split times up at different times as they always come at the worst time to look at them lol. I am looking to push on for the second half of the season and start trying to claw you back buddy ;)
 
Pre-Race confusion!
Just settled down in my cockpit when a massive catfight broke out in the garage between some grid girls from Essex! Had to get out of the car and break it up which resulted in scratched forehead! Jumped back in car but missed my briefing resulting in the Redbull missing some of our (illegal but only if we get caught) driver aids (ABS & racing line)!

Quali - Went for primes until I realised was gonna start behind the AI pilots so stuck on options for last run, without our aids ended up in 4/5th behind Peter Hooper for 1st time this season (in his extremely legal Sauber/Williams? - how do you manage!)

Race - Got a decent start and was 3 abreast alongside Peter & Buemi going into 2nd corner, I touched Peter (sorry) but don't think he spun or lost to much ground but I ended up on wrong side of track and had to brake hard (no ABS) and may have bunched everyone up a I corrected my trajectory! Had a great tussle with Buemi for next laps just keeping him behind me until I pitted (was 1st in due to no-ABS which wore my rubber very quickly). Next lap everyone that had passed me pitted except redskinsniper. Caught him fairly quickly and was back in 4th behind Legand, MadMax & Buemi but Hulkenburg hassled me for the rest of the race, beat him by small margin and i'm very happy I didn't get lapped once more. 3rd of the humans again is deffo best I could ave hoped for. Just like to say well done to MadMax, when did you get so quick? was racing him the other night and we were very well matched but he slaughtered me here. I'll put it down to losing some driver aids and blood running into my eyes all race! Grid girls now banned from our garage.
Peter, i think i crossed the line about 10 seconds before Legand won if that helps
