As the season reaches its climax, FreQ needs a good result to avoid Busi snatching the title from him. That's going to be a tall order at Imola if they stick with the current rides, but the manufacturer crown is also going to be determined by the outcome, with Lambo and Dodge neck and neck. Team Shark have an unassailable stranglehold on the team championship, but the Pink Team could still steal the runner up spot from the 24-7 boys.
In GTC, Lazlow is perilously close to slipping back behind Shark, and Prof only needs 3 points to seal 3rd place. The team championship is almost as close, with the Shark's rapidly swimming up behind the Oldies. Morgan have all but wrapped up the manufacturer title, and it'll take a mammoth effort (or a disaster for Shark) for BMW to catch them.

A question: is there a courageous soul to take my place in the Marcos next season? Last race of S10 could be a good multi practice run for it - that is if you don't plan to mess with the league / race pody outcome.

What u need to search for is insanely courageous and at least a bit of a masochist... driver.

What u need to search for is insanely courageous and at least a bit of a masochist... driver. Seems like I'm all that. Still: in the last few races I finished on just about the same position as I would have with any other car. @sbg: I used MC12 in one of the seasons already. Wanna use a new car, say C6R or Spanners DBR9. Just have to get rid of that unspeakable colour. Our Artist Adam is busy with his family growth, so I guess the Legends skin is out of the question. Still, the white skins are nice and solid.

I have a little dilema. My initial plan for this race was taking the Viper and racing FreQ on equal conditions. If I beat him for victory I would take the championship. But given how slow the Viper could be here... maybe other drivers, i.e. Jon, sbg, Gazza, etc. could beat us and finishing ahead of FreQ wouldn't give me the title. In conclusion, FreQ, take the Lambo for this one!

It's been a great season whatever the outcome and looks like it will be hard work right to the end.

In conclusion, FreQ, take the Lambo for this one! Don't worry about it. I chose the Viper this season for a challenge. I expected to be fighting you and Jon last season so took the Lister, but ended up getting a little bored when you both weren't around; and this season I took the Viper to enjoy racing others, and typically you're both around now! doh! I didn't expect to be in contention, much less leading into the final round. I will admit though...this is going to be a tough ask. I'll try my best though. Finally, it's in my best interests to keep quiet on this, but I think you should check: championship tie breakers at UKGTR are not decided the way you may think (on wins). I'm not saying I agree with the current system, but I don't run the league. You should check the rules beforehand. Good Luck

Thanks for mentioning that mate, I read that once but didn't even remember it, thinking that only number of victories mattered. Well of course it's an unusual tie break decider but I must admit it's good for sim racing cause it prizes the attendance oh well I'll need somebody to help me then, but with Jon being your teammate... * prepares money bags *

Will the weather be taken from Sunday night (slight chance of rain) or morning-midday forecast (dry) (since race start: 5:00)?
