Grats to Ra for the Lights victory! Awesome stuff with a keyboard!
Great job by Al for P2 and to Hristo for recovering from an off to claim P3.
A lucky P4 for me. Lucky to have finished at all, in fact, as my latency bar was going bananas mid-race. I decided to pass Al to see if my connection would settle down. Nope. Scary moment just seconds later as Magic appeared as is by magic off my left front corner. I spun in shock. Recovered to run P5 til Magic had a mysterious off in the esses.
I see that I'm not assigned to score points for a team. Would someone please correct this and make sure that, since February 3rd, all my scores should be assigned to Blue Moose. Thanks.
Doni

Doni, You keep resigning from Blue Moose. Not sure why. I have sent you another invitation. I think that maybe you have attempted to join another team for a series? I'll have a word with Dave but in the meantime, join the team and welcome back.

Just about made it home from grandchildren duties in time to join the race. Decided to join via IP, just to see if it made any difference to my fortunes regarding discos. My pace was a little off in quali, (I guess I was still in fatigue mode after being duffed up by 2 grandchildren for 48hrs!!) so I was about 12th(?) on the grid but had done my quali on race fuel as usual so not too bothered. The start was Ok and one or two cars decided to throw themselves into the greenery on the early laps and I was able to make a pass or two...soon up to a heady 6th place and enjoying some good racing with Dean, Tom and one or two others. The slipstream element with F2's makes it very difficult to break away from a pack of cars and we swapped positions a few times. I was chasing Tom hard and got bumped from behind entering the Loop, after a triple barrel roll with forward somersault I landed on the fence and from habit hit Esc to quit....forgetting that I could have re-set with a Shift-R. Ah well, it probably saved me from suffering a gremlin disco later in the race Grats to the finishers and the podium people. I think this season is going to be one where I just enjoy whatever racing I might get, results do not appear to be part of the script for me.

It was a fun race, but could have been a better result. Lost the lead at the start, then attacked Tristan a few corners later but changed down to 2nd gear and that spun me around. Fortunately didn't hit anything, but unfortunately I was now down to last place, so it took quite some time to pass and close in on the leading 4. Doni was warping excessively, his car jumping everywhere, so it was really stressful to run close to him and simply impossible to go for a pass. That's why I just kept putting pressure on him and eventually he went off at the last corner.
We had a good battle with Tristan afterwards and it was impossible to escape from one another due to the slipstream effect. Each lap he would usually pass me on the run down towards the Loop, but then I'll get back the lead on the run towards the next right-hander and normally Tristan didn't try to go 2 wide there. On one of the laps he actually did attempt that and since I was already commited to the outside and being in front, his front right must have made contact with my left rear because he went off.
Then Raoni was coming very fast and when he was passing me into the Loop he left me almost no space, so I had to go off to avoid contact, but managed to continue almost immediately. After that I had to push very hard to pass Al and then catch up Raoni who was flying in the lead. It was working out fairly well but I had to take big risks to accomplish that. This led to another off at the Loop and this time the car sustained damage, so it was all over. Tristan was catching me very fast and I didn't think I would be able to hold 3rd place with a damaged car, but he had a spin on his own just when he was closing in, so I brought it home in 3rd.
Grats to Raoni for the win and Al for 2nd!

Despite spending most of my time at the tail of the pack I enjoyed some great racing in the company of Phil, Axl and Dean. Very close at times and very fair or so I thought? Some great footage on the replay guys.
However apologies to Sky and Axl for some contact early and late in the race respectively. Please let me know and or report it if either of you feel aggrieved.
Grats to Raoni, Al and Hristo and see you all at the next round.

Great fun - I was pleased to be able to hang onto the leading train here. Found myself in 3rd place after Hristo's early off, but under serious pressure from Doni who was racing very strongly (though also suffering from some lag). The slipstream kept the battle for the lead rather busy & after Raoni & Tris tripped over each other mid-race, I had a few laps leading on my own, though a recovering H, Tris & Raoni caught up & passed me again all too soon. With everyone running so close it still looked to be anyone's race & I was expecting a very exciting final few laps - I certainly enjoyed my grandstand seat as H & Raoni argued over the lead. Rather fortunate to inherit 2nd in the closing laps when H ran wide at the Loop. Congratulations to winner Raoni & H for managing to avoid The Haybale & recover to 3rd.

Congrats Raoni, Al, and Hristo Fun race for me. I don't use pribluda anymore and I think for the first time I had Hristo showing behind me on my pitboard. Lots of action in the first ten laps. I went off at the 90 and after mowing the entire pit straight I joined behind a group and tried to latch on. For many laps I tried in vain to catch King Hiro and keep Phil at bay. Phil cut in to my advantage and I was determined to keep him out of the draft. Well, at least that sounds heroic. hehe Pretty pleased with the result considering the competition. Great consistency Natan Nice lap Hristo and Dean in the Coop Peace RJ

Hello,
GPA (Argentina league) make a F2 championship It's unrealistic for us to participate ( race at 3am) but I proposed to them that we make a challenge South America vs Europe on 5 of the tracks. Brands Hatch, Rouen, Reims, Monza and WG
races on 2 continents have the same number of laps (about 30 minutes) to assign points to 2 teams will be made by the time of 2 podiums ( 3 Europeans and 3 S.Americans ) : 9, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1
I put a server, the European races will be held on Monday at 21h (Paris) no obligation to participate in 5 races, but it will always keep the same car. For now, 3 French drivers are starters .

That night the South Americans made their race at Brands Hatch 24 laps. (Intermediate mode) The podium: Negrullo (Arg), Jonny'o (Bra) Ozpata (uru)
I will hold a same race next Monday at 21h (Paris)
we compare the time of the podium with one of these three drivers. 9, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1 with 1 bonus for the best driver regular to determine which team wins the round of BH. (I recall that there will be 4 other races: Rouen, Monza, WG and Zandvort)
for now 6 drivers are interrested: (F): Max Lenclen Phil Girard, Tintin, Rainier Dave, me and Jens Kraft (G)
We are not obliged to participate in the 5 rounds ( but you must choose a single car for all races)
If after 4 rounds the two teams are tied 2-2, it would be nice to try to find a reasonable time to organize a final common Watkin Glen
