Title: UKGPL Season 36 (2020) 1969 F1 - Montjuïc Park - Feb 4 Post by: Cookie on February 02, 2020, 11:59:06 PM +0000 Season 36 - 69x Trophy – Round 2 - Montjuïc Park
For the next round of the season 36 we go to Montjuich Park, a street circuit on Montjuich mountain above Barcelona. A twisty tricky circuit, it was the site of the tragic 1975 Spanish Grand Prix. Many drivers felt that the circuit was unsafe, and two time world champion Emerson Fittipaldi withdrew in protest before the start of the race. On lap 26 the Embassy Hill-Lola car of Rolf Stommelen left the track, killing five people. The race was subsequently stopped at half distance and half points awarded, with Jochen Mass being recorded as the winner. Lella Lombardi became the first female driver to score world championship points, taking 0.5 points for 6th place. Formula One never returned to the circuit after the accident.
Driver lists and divisional rules can be found on the championship standings page (https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?action=LM2R&group=862&theme=6) "Junior" drivers are allowed a maximum of one reset with a compulsory Stop & Go within two laps.

Yes very sorry about that gents. I just gave it slightly too much gas in an effort to keep ahead of Tris and I spun. I bounced off the Armco and into your path there wasn't much you could do to avoid me.Other than that it was a good race for me. I need a few more like that!

For the next race the available tokens will be as declared in the table below (the table will also appear in the next race announcement). The calculated values are automated but selecting the cars is a manual process so please check your tokens to make sure I haven't made a silly error. There was no token overspend for this round so no one is disqualified.

I am just happy to finish with this old, not easy to drive BT24, at the end with fuel for 5 laps more. Secure breaking at T1, you could also say to timid, let me lose a lot of places. Doesn‘t matter - my goal was only to see the chequered here. Grats Tristan, Clive and Phil The lapboard showed me that it was a diversified race for the most of us - fine! Looking forward to Spa with the next hairy T1 situation, but as we know now, we can ;) Title: Re: UKGPL Season 36 (2020) 1969 F1 - Montjuïc Park - Feb 4 Post by: Rainier on February 05, 2020, 09:46:50 AM +0000 Uli,
Why did you drive the old BT24 without wings and not, for example, the McLaren M9A which costs only 2 tokens more ? Some kind of challenge ? Your best lap is better than mine with the BRM ! Grats for your performance !
