I prepared 13 pages of info for the race today. Probably will only use 10% of the info, but I won't know which 10% I will use.

Currently writing down fact and stats on some papers to help me with the broadcast... very excited to get back into the swing of things with RaceDepartment!
Make sure you write down that i will 99% crash and burn at Sheene's at some point.

Keeping my focus for 90 minutes on a track like this , in the Nissan, while wearing the Rift and fighting with a pretty powerful wheel is pretty much not possible.
 
Technically, all you need is your own skin from the league as far as I know. However, there shouldn't be too much performance difference in terms of framerate, but don't quote me on that. I don't know whether we had a cap in place for skin resolution.

Edit:Yes we did. There should be no difference to default Kunos skins.

Is it okey to delete all other skins and only leave the one i will be using in the race?
I was thinking just in case cuz so there wont be any graphical issues. :)
 
Sorry to anyone I might've scared when they were coming in that blind right-hander, I honestly thought I was already in last position when I was able to get back in control.
Would be lovely if someone could upload the replay.
 
Good race, car didn't want to behave during qualify but my race was good.
Had to wipe the sweat from inside the rift at some point and i spun :|

I don't know what happened on lap 1 or 2 first corner, somebody bumped me / i bumped someone, if it was my fault i am sorry.

90 minute race on a dd wheel and i don't feel my arms right now.
 
Let me start off by saying I did not realize that Ferrie was a girl! I announced her as a he, so I apologize for anything there.

What a dominant race for FinnTeam. They were fantastic. Very interesting race in the midpack, I would not be surprised to see a good amount of penalties being given.
 
Overall a bad race for me, I had no pace what so ever, but that doesn't justify the gap that FinnTeam created. THEY WERE MIGHTY, especially Tuomas! Congrats to both of you.
I want to add that some of the backmarkers were really unpredictable.
 
great race for priority 1 motorsport top 10 finish for both cars apologise for the race start when lights went out I dropped frame rate and took a few seconds to sort itself out had a nice few battles almost had 6th on the last lap o well next time maybe :) see ya at Silverstone
 
A too long lasting pit stop cost me / team some points. Beside the carnage of others at the start (very first meters) of course*, ended up in a wall of car(s) - so no getting further for my car.
I chose repair for body + supension.. at my pit stop, which then led to 10-20 sec., whatever exactly (edit: 30 sec. longer Pit In laptime compared to my teammate), extra pit stop time.. .
Better should've kept the car in its current state, instead choosing this. In Monza I chose repair for suspension and it cost no extra time, that's why I thought I could risk some repairs again. :) Didn't work out.
But what a finish (finish line finish) in the last lap with the battle for P15 (last points position) :).

*A car spun out at the start / green lights because of wheel spin. I can only advise to practice a start before.
A too (/ very..) short first gear can unfortunately 'always' spin the rear wheels too much regardless of factory TC, leading to spinning the car around. I know that from my own start testing. So having a look and test at the behaviour of the first gear is mandatory. Just saying.. to avoid s.th. similar happening again in the next races. ;)


Sry for some touch in the last turn of the beginning laps (spun me around, probably the other car as well), but maybe it was 50:50 my + the other cars fault.
Thought I was through or the car will kinda led me through for the exit of the turn, but maybe misjudged it (this situation) just a little bit.

An eventful race would be a good description for that one. After having miraculously survived from the start and getting an awesome 6th place, I stayed away from troubles down the grid but failed to keep the 6th after several long-distance battle, especially with @Craig Patteson

I also heard on the stream that I changed team from S56 Design to STR Racing ... This is not the case, I just got the wrong skin assigned, and I was still driving for S56 Design.
