Your bank accounts are open now, means you can use up to 500$ of the money stored in it. Some more people with open accounts, however no tags as the balance of those is 0.

Happy to bring home the car in the points but it's races like these, aka when Ben retires , that we really need to capitalize on if we're going to close the gap.

+55 Race Skill please

Good from Rami and without the driving errors this surely would have ben a 2/3 for Williams which is really really good.

We have to take an eye on Tobi, though.

Spoiler: Post-Race Interview

"From a disappointing French Grand Prix, there came a points finish for your team and a Top 6 finish in this race for you. What did you feel about the race?"

The qualifying was disappointing, but I managed to fight for positions against the grid of a bit faster cars and drivers. I'm also impressed that my teammate finished in the Top 10 as points aren't very, very much important to us.

"You are the 6th fastest too, is your car getting targeted for a podium finish?"

The car is unbelievably better, but there's a low chance for us to get a podium finish if our car doesn't get much, much better as we need to get P7 in the WCC as it's our team objective.

"Thanks Andy"
Thanks!

Seems you're getting used to the car now, constantly improving in the last couple of races. Next step race win?

Ho Lee poop, but yeah of course the next step is a win, but to be serious I don't think it's gonna happen when you have Kederer and those bloody fast Williams. I still have a 100% podium ratio on all my simulation races at Silverstone, so that's good.

FIA Press Conference
@Mane Goddard: Probably your best performance this season so far, does it give hope for the upcoming races?
​

A big NO.

I'm planning to spend nothing until the next season, so for now no buys.

ANNOUNCEMENT

Directing your attention to this post by Aidan. As stated there, the variation value works differents as we thought. Instead of the value either being added or subtracted from the ability value, it seems that it's only added. Also, it's not within a range of 0->x, but rather seems to be 2/3x->x.
Further details can be taken from this thread on gpg. How it works exactly isn't clear as of yet, there probably on 2 people in the community who might have an answer to that, both haven't replied yet.

Now what does this mean. I can't and won't do anything about previous seasons. In this season, @Mane Goddard was the only one to buy variation (-10 race var.). This means, he had a disadvantage from the moment he bought it (before race 1, see here). Apologies for that Mane. To make up for that, your race variation will be set to 260 for the remaining 8 races, and you'll get additional 80 race variation points which you can either use all in the next race, or 10 for each of the remaining races. Please tell me how you want to use it.

Also, variation buys will be locked for the rest of the season, and the costs will be adjusted for the upcoming one, probably 100$ for 15 (similar to FFG).
