Same here, '03 please. it's only one corner that changes so no real re-practice, and I think most people are more familiar with 03 anyway  . |

I don't think it would matter, even at this late stage, if it was changed to 2003 version. It is only the bus stop that has any real noticable differences so it would not cause any major 'wasted practice' issues IMO.
Go for it.

So I tried the 2003 Spa version, and now the bus stop is just a normal chicane? As in Paniiic brake, steer over the curbs in a straight line and once you land on the far end just floor it.
I prefer the slower version myself.

I prefer the 04 version...better chance for overtaking, and no possibility of straightlining the entry.

The UKGTR version has much tighter checking, you really can't do anything naughty at the bus stop with our version. |

Had a try at the UKGTR version, indeed much tighter cut warning. That, coupled with the much more dangerous 2003 chicane, makes it very easy to muck up your race here. But if you go carefully through the chicane, you loose a lot of time, as much as a second even.
Same for T1-2-3 of course, the fast uphill leftrightleft.
Gonna be a challenging race.

Yeah, rainy  Tried a few laps with 80% rain at the 20C the game gives. No chance of keeping hard wets up to temp, and softs will become dangerous before half the tank is gone. Can only imagine what it will be like if we're really driving at 3C. |

Sounds like an excellent test of skill, stamina and tactics. |

AAAAARRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHH  I'm not entirely sure what happend but i think i did a Raikkonen and got a touch on the grass into the fast left before the bus-stop. Sadly the tarmac didnt help me at that speed and clattered the tyres on the outside but didnt think its was too bad but the engine was dead. Saw H@L coming though so thought i'd better jump ship. Sorry guys, disappointed is putting it mildly. Well it started off ok, the temperatures werent as low as i feared and with a short practise and qualifying session i just wanted to get a resonable (for me) lap in. Was following Ade around with us both having a few lapses of concentration, me more than him though! Just hope it went well for the rest of you |
