had done zero practise and completely knackered after a day at Donington racing around on motorbikes  :P Sorry to Maikel for the side by side shoulder barge, thought you had lost it and gone off as I steamed down the inside but you must have recovered as I did so and we clashed. That took my last enthusiasm to continue so I parked up and retired.  :(

That wasn't me  ;D

I had a terrible night. Just coudn't get into a rythm on this track and kept loosing the rear or locking up. I was lucky to get in a good lap at quali and get into 3rd. Thought I tried the mediums this time to get a better start. Which helped but right into turn 1 the rear tried to take an amibitous overtake on the front around the outside of T1. So I sat facing the wrong way and as soon as I drive away I get teleported to the pits with a 30 second controls lock ( maybe some mechanic to ban/punish obvious crashers online, hence the file name Zolderonline  ??? ? ). Was tempted to just quit but I knew I would need those points someday, so I just finished in the end. Tried to keep Jeffrey from lapping me but with those toasted rears the car kept loosing it. Such a shame after how brilliant the car was to drive at Suzuka, I just coudn't keep it straight on this track.

IMHO, it was a last race where mediums was possible in this champ tracks. In mediums, after 95 percents of tyre ( zolder case) will occur a massive grip drop. It's will brings a only one tyre- hards for next races. It's making this car driving not fun for me... I have bad this car feels when racing on european servers ( as usually), more slippery . So i am not in sure continue or not to racing this series. F599 was more fun to drive for me. Will see, but  :-\  Kunos needs to fine turning many of tyres types but... They don't, AC project closed being not fine tuned in final.. :'(
So, anyway, congrats podium and Jeff!  :)
BTW Small amount of pilots registered and raced... :(

I might be wrong but think we may be suffering a bit of series overload. Traditionally we would finish a good series and take a breather for a few weeks with some fun race combos. But now we jump straight into a new series and it takes a bit of the anticipation/build up away...maybe?   :-\

No thanks, I did my spell of trying to keep everyone happy  ;) besides I’m enjoying the championships on the whole, just wondered why ‘post traffic’ and race attendances had taken a dive in last few weeks. ???
