Notes:
(1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage.
(2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules.
(3) The AI control should be turned off so that you have control of the car at all times, including pitting. Your player file should therefore read
Autopit="0"
Force Autopit Off="1" // Forces autopit always off
No AI Control="1" // AI never has control over car
If you still finding pitting problematic, experience tells us that its less to do with positioning and more to do with approach speed. A slow approach to pit crew chief has proved most reliable.

Special Notes: None

Always the same story between me and Brands Hatch: can't find any kind of rhythm here.
Requires a lot more practicing for me  Roll Eyes

Replay and results now posted.

No time to practice for this one and my setup was mostly guess work. Also my pedals needed re-calibrating  Roll Eyes

Should be all normal for next weeks race.

Tough race, this one.  Brands Hatch will never be one of my favorites; I'll be hard pressed to think of a corner I hate more than T1 here - don't think I'll ever truly gotten it right, in any car.  Lola demanded full concentration and a rotten egg on the accelerator at all times.

Puzzled by the results table - it shows GT on pole and me on 4th, but if I'm not mistaken, he started from the back, Postal was on pole and I was 3rd  Huh

Anyway, slipped into 2nd when Postal spun at T1 on L1.  GT soon made his way through, and he & Clive disappeared.  Managed to stay ahead of the Alfa pack of Roger & Postal for a number of laps, but then Roger fell back a little, allowing Postal to concentrate on me instead.  He was soon through, and I thus dropped to 4th.

Gap to Roger varied, but eventually seemed to stabilize around 6-7 secs.   Surprisingly, Clive then showed up, not too far up ahead.  Wondered if his tyres were off already, and if I might have a shot at passing him.  Soon became apparent though, that he was playing his gap management game once more.  Decided to ignore him and concentrate on Roger behind me instead - better hang on to 4th than screw up trying for a 3rd I wasn't going to get anyway.

However, Mr.Evil seemingly didn't like being ignored, and promptly dropped the gap to under 3 secs. I still didn't take the bait, so he extended the gap a little, but then pretended to spin in a corner. Okay, if he was THAT intent  Wink, then maybe I should try and pressure him a little. Just as this was unfolding, GT caught and was about to lap me. Contemplating where I could let him past without losing too much time to Clive, distracted me enough to go off track. That of course let him through - and handed Clive another gap to manage!   The kind track nazis decided I shouldn't be the only one getting nothing from my mistake, and thus handed me a cut track warning  censored

Got another warning some laps later, when I ran ever so slightly wide when exiting the hairpin at T2 - apparently you get s-n-g's for losing time on this track..  Thus had to be very careful on the remaining 10 laps or so, so never got truly close to Clive again.  Slid off under braking on the last lap, but thankfully rejoined soon enough to hang on to 4th till the finish.

Grats to the podium.  Thoughts go to Bill though; hope his procedure has gone well, and that he'll soon be back among us.

Cheers,
Erling
