Notes:
(1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage.
(2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules.
(3) The AI control should be turned off so that you have control of the car at all times, including pitting. Your player file should therefore read
Autopit="0"
Force Autopit Off="1" // Forces autopit always off
No AI Control="1" // AI never has control over car
If you still finding pitting problematic, experience tells us that its less to do with positioning and more to do with approach speed. A slow approach to pit crew chief has proved most reliable.

Special Notes: To score points in this series you must complete over 50% of the overall race distance.

Tony, I'm uncertain about how to interpret this:

"Note: Driver's can only choose one car make per race. Applies to Round's 3, 4 & 5."

Does it mean different car in each race, or the same car in the 3 races ?

Different car in each race please.

Quick question from me as well. We must chose 3 different cars, but different from the previous races, or they don't count? I mean we must chose 3 cars no mater what we drove in the previous rounds?

Doesn't matter what was used in previous rounds.

Rule is for Rounds 3, 4 & 5 ONLY.

Choose either Abarth, Mini, Alfa or Lotus. Use only one time each (one will not be used as there are four car choices and only three races).

YOU MAY NOT DRIVE ANY MAKE TWICE!

The Altbierbude server has crashed and they are working on it. It should be back soon. :)

working again

Weird, left game to change car but lobby failed to show Srouk event for me and Dan. Checked our server and saw drivers present in game. So restarted PC but still lobby failed to show Srouk event.  ???

So couldn't join in last race.  >:(

Results and replay now posted.

Sorry guys, we had massive lobby problems again. Our boss has moved the lobby to another server without knowing that you are running a Monday event. When I saw it it was already too late  :(

Another three great events full of battles, mistakes and so much fun. Even though the grid was not full the driver were able to deliver and make the events great.

In race 1 i was battling with Daz and when i overtake his at the first corner I've decided that i didn't gave him enough space and let him pass. Unfortunately at the first chicane we both made little mistakes but mine was worse and i made a slip, losing 5 positions and stall the engine.

After i was finally back i just wanted to win back few positions and had luck to do so.

Race 2 was a little bit boring. Geoffers was too quick and Daz a little bit slower in P3. At the end i was able to take the podium here which was the best i can do.

Race 3 was a class. I was able to beat Geoff for P2 on the grid but this time Daz was the one that was too quick for me. After slow start Geoff took the second place and we started another great battle. He was a little bit faster but it was tough to overtake here.

He made a mistake in the last corner and i took the second position. After that we both gave 100% in a fight for the second position. After few side by side's and overtakes at the end, 1 lap before the end, Geoff lost the car on acceleration on the last corner just before the start of last lap and this is how i won the position.

Congrats to Geoffers for the two wins and to Daz for the win at Hockenheim. Congrats to the podium guys as well.
