Season 39 1967F2 – Round 1 – Cadwell Park
For season 39 we are running a UK F2 Championship visiting some classic UK tracks.
Cadwell Park is a much loved racing circuit in Lincolnshire in Eastern England. In 1926 Mr. Mansfield Wilkinson bought a part of the old Cadwell Hall country estate adjacent to his farm. His sons, Charles and Christopher, started to race each other around the gravel drives on their motorbikes. The track was improved, widened and lengthened over the years to become what it is today. The names of the Wilkinsons live on in the names of some corners. The track is used more for motorbike racing rather than modern high powered car racing, because of its narrowness and lack of run off areas in places.

What a tedious track! (wth a full grid & fast drivers). Apologies for taking you out Billy, was going ok up until that point. Then just continued to get worse. I took nearly all the unlimited resets over the next couple of laps & was lapped by about lap5.
Troed to keep out of the way/not crash into lappers, but didn't always seem to work out as well as it should.

What a blast! Great start to the season, if a little frantic. I span on lap 7 giving a couple of places away but no need for a reset. Apologies to Philippe on L16 if I tripped you up. I was settling down again after passing a recovering Yannick and being cautious. I saw your car explode in my mirrors. Cool.
Evil nudged me off on Lap 26 but only as I was held up by the traffic ahead. No problem though as we both recovered and had a stellar race to the end. Thanks to Phil for some close racing in the Cooper. The F2 are fantastic in close racing like this. See you all next time.

What a hectic race. I got well off the line but got taken out after a couple of corners and got demoted to 18th. Worked my way up throughout the race but I had to mostly rely on other's errors and mishaps as there is just next to no overtaking on this track otherwise, especially in an underpowered Ferrari. I tried being patient with my moves but it did not always pan out as I did had a couple of collisions here and there. I do not really recall who again by heart, but my apologies to you.
Still I managed to climb up to 4th, but got barely lapped at the end of the race.

I could connect myself at 21:06 (I am not full time driver) I tried to connect after 21:00, my bad, then after a couple of try I could join. I don't know who disconnected to leave me room.

The biggest challenge with this track (for me anyhow) was getting lapped. Apologies to; Evil - After letting you through the preceding lap, I planned to go very deep into Mansfield & make room for the pass on the inside. On reflection you probably weren't expecting that & it ended badly. Fulvio - there were a train of cars passing me between the pits & the hairpin. I managed to get out of the way of most of them. This is a very tricky track but quite satisfying when you get it right.

We tangled when I was battling with Eric on the left turn before the hump, sorry, I didn't see your move in time. I had a long battle with Eric till there, then I lost a lot of position here and there cause a bit of damage and some mistakes.

Sorry Billy, I was caught off guard by your slow speed before the hairpin. In chat after the end I said sorry to Francesco, but it was for you.

Watching my replay I noted that with this mod when you rear end someone the car behind got crazy and become an earth-air rocket. I saw Clive, Philippe and Phil, I think, start to the moon. I was lucky when I hit Billy cause I was slow there.
