I went to the race very discouraged, I couldn't believe that we would have a race of 67 on this narrow track, ideal for 55. But advance judgments always end up wrong. Only after halfway through the race did I start to like the track for the 67! Now look! Well, my idea was to try to stay alone on the track, because I had problems with low FPS in some corners. That's impressive, this track isn't even 100% finished and has heavy sectors, I have no problem with Isle of Man, Targa, Dundrod........ I can't understand. In the race my friend Doni came close and didn't want to make it difficult, twice, it wouldn't be a good idea to hold him back with fps problems in some corners, the plan was to be alone as best as possible. In the end, a 5th was a good size. Greg's pace on the Honda is impressive. And congratulations to Tristan on the win!!!! And Doni on the podium! Axel, I wish you better luck next time!

Congratulations to Leo on the win! I had a very lively race, we were in a group, 4 of us changing positions and we were fighting until halfway through the race, mistakes, successes and a lot of fun! Me, Doni, Phil and Bennett. In the end, coming third was a lot of luck too, I love Gordini, a lot of work to find the correct speed ratio, he has a low power range, and it's difficult to avoid holes in the ratio.

Please, I'm just putting up for debate the possibility of increasing the distance on the grid. Precisely because the GPL is not a perfect simulator in terms of contact, in fact, it is totally unpredictable. In this accident on Sunday, I didn't even look at the replay, let alone point the finger at someone, I don't know. I don't want it considered and I won't report it. My suggestion is just to consider increasing the distance on the grid to make room for the lag problem and the contact bug. Deficiencias innate to the GPL.

Congratulations to the podium, and congratulations to winner Tristan! Yes, racing is dangerous and it wouldn't be any different in a simulator, although you'll never break a bone. But we have to take into account that the GPL has a contact bug, it does not accept hitting wheels or a small touch of crystal glass . In Clandestines Trophy I used 20m grid as standard for many years and the results were very favourable.

Please exclude Monza from the calendar, careful riders simply always get eliminated on lap 1.... or maybe increase the distance at the start to 30 meters, I watched 3 accidents in lap 1. until I was hit from behind. After all, should we be careful on lap 1 or not this needs to be made clear!

Simply put, we must hold two annual race against the clock events. PRO mode, we did it for 6 years in Clandestines, it's possible!!! And it puts you a lot of adrenaline, just 1 lap. But anyway, one way or another, the important thing is that we hold an event in Targa every year and with greater emphasis, a multi-league event. Because all the people who worked for years on this work deserve it. and big run , Tristan, Axel and Phill!!!!!
Edit: two events, I mean Targa and Isle of man

First, I must explain why I started from the last position: In qualy I had the 2nd time......but the curiosity to get to know the city of Wiesbaden better, made me walk around the city in the inner part and go between the buildings in search of a cafe, I found the coffee, but the judge of the race considered that I was walking in the opposite direction and gave a beautiful DQ in the qualy ..... therefore the last one on the grid.
In the qualy I did 5 laps with full tank and I wanted to see my pace for the race, Leo's time was difficult for me, and I decided not to lose energy for the race. This track you need precision, attacking the entry of the corner can mean staying stuck on a fence or break on the wall.
But after the first lap, when a lot of decisive things happened, first I survived the mess of the multiple accident, and second and perhaps the most decisive, is to see Leo retiring with car problems. With that, I had a lot of advantage for the pilots who didn't have a Lotus, on this track the difference between the Lotus and the other cars is almost 2s on average, that's a lot.
Then it was about having patience and catching up with any car, staying sideways at the beginning of the long straight and passing easily with the power of the cosworth, this was repeated lap by lap. When I got to Greg, I took advantage of a small gap and passed and when I noticed Tristan was out of the running. I don't know if I could catch Tristan until the end of the race, but winning again this season made me forget about Rio Quarto......heheheh
Well, we reached the end of this season in mod67, we have Leo as champion and dominator of this series. And here in Wiesbaden I'm happy to share the podium with my friends Greg and Doni !!!!
