Pole Sitter: Mattias
Race Winner: Mattias
Who will score the surprise result: Alex

Who do you think will be on the podium? Mattias, Frede and Myself
Now that you've taken part in 2 races, do you feel you're in a different position in the league as to where you thought you would be before the season started? Malaysia was more where I expected to be, Aus was a write off but I've not had a clean race yet and there is some way to go
What are your thoughts on the circuit and what is your target for the race? I like the circuit. I sucked here last season horribly but in ARL went from last to 2nd so I have the speed.
What is the dynamic between you and your teammate like? We spend most of our time winding each other up. When we aren't doing that, Saif is sandbagging.
Will Jamie quit? Nah, He has restored my faith in him. He also looks to have some speed.
Ask Alex and Ash a question.

Alex - You've been here long enough to see a lot of what's happened in the league. In the event that perhaps I stand down from organising it. Who would you say would be capable of taking over?

Ash - We are yet to see sales figures for the BT Home Hub. Can you confirm or deny that your adverts were a success?
 
unfortunately i'm going to have to step down from the championship. with exams coming up and things like missing 2 races because i'll be in America i just cant make many of the races, plus like last night my internet just won't work at all most of the time.

stick me down as a reserve for now because after exams especially (and if the internet works) i may be able to race again

So with Shoaib in Lotus there was another guy, I think it was a guy called Mats who was second reserve. @Alex Burton was it one of yours?

Slim, Frede and Saif

To be honest, better than I though in spite of an overtsteery car last night

What are your thoughts on the circuit and what is your target for the race?

The circuit I like, however it's a tall order to repeat last season's result

What is the dynamic between you and your teammate like?

Too early to say, I feel like I am team leader for now

Will Jamie quit?

He won't, he is much better already.

Ask Alex and Ash a question.

Alex and Ash: If you went to a Grand Prix, which one would it be?
 
Alex: If you could kidnap one person in the league, what would the requirements be for someone to make sure it was them rather than Jamie.

Probably kidnap a loved one, and then maybe I'd have to kidnap them back :p

Alex - If you had to dispose of a dead body, how would you do it?
I suppose I'd take it to Blackpool, and see whatever floats my boat in regards to what i'd do next. Whats with these gruesome questions.

Alex - You've been here long enough to see a lot of what's happened in the league. In the event that perhaps I stand down from organising it. Who would you say would be capable of taking over?
Jamie looks like he's being bedded in already. Aside from him, you'd want someone enthusiastic about being involved in the organisation. Theo fits that role. I also think Falcon could do a good job.

Alex and Ash: If you went to a Grand Prix, which one would it be?

I want to see the Singapore GP in person, aswell as Monaco and Belgium and Italy and Japan and Australia and Abu Dhabi and Brazil and USA and Canada and now even Bahrain as it looks great at night. Obviously I'm most likely to end up at Silverstone, but if I was to only ever able to go to 1, I'd pick Singapore.
 
Season 6 Malaysia Grand Prix
No/Driver - 11/Manuel Waibel
Competitor - McLaren
Time - Lap 4
Session - Race

Fact - During turn 1 on lap 4 of the race, Car 11 attempted to overtake Car 6 and made contact sending Car 6 into a half spin, thus receiving a 10 second in game penalty. The driver then slowed down, allowing the aggreved driver to regain his position, losing a further 2 spots in the process.

Decision - The stewards have decided that due to the significant time lost by Car 11, the 10 second penalty will be removed. Reinstating him to 5th place.


 
Quali:
2nd, very happy, didn't expect it.

Race:
First stint, nice fights, was on the pace, thought it'd be a close one... then Sam got past and I noticed what tyre strategy he was going for. I passed Henri end of lap 9 just before he pit. I pitted lap 10, keeping to my original strategy but that was part of my undoing.

Saw Shaki was in front of myself and Henri who was at that point three seconds up the road from me. Luckily he caught him just before the straight so passed with ease. I caught up behind him in the slower complex and couldn't use my faster tyres - knowing the battle with Henri was then over, Sam came out of the pits on lap 13 ahead of me by a couple of tenths.

The following lap on the run out of the esses, I got a much better exit then him, thought he was staying right but then we both moved left at exactly the same time... I took avoiding action but at 180mph with DRS open, I moved too far right and glanced the pillar on the right of the circuit... broken wing. Not his fault, it was just very coincidental... think that's my first damage this season?

After this, I tried to keep up but couldn't and started focusing on Fuyjin behind. I knew he'd get me in the 2nd stops due to changed wing and he did by quite a way.

In the final stop I managed to hunt down Fuyjin to take third but I don't think it's enough with one race to go.

A disappointing race after being so strong in the first stint; I just hope people carry on practising so I've got a chance to get someone (or three) between myself and Henri now (especially as I've heard Fuyjin is playing the team game (hint: Henri didn't for me in TNC! :D))!
