Moderator's Report

Server replay time: 0h04m25s

David is closing on Bernie as they start a new lap and Bernie runs wide at St Devote rubbing the barriers. David gets closer as a result. At the top of the hill as Bernie turns into Casino Square he runs wide again, mounting the kerb and running along the armco.
This offers David a clear track around the normal racing line and he takes the opportunity to pass Bernie who is grinding his way along the armco wrestling with the steering wheel.
Just as David draws alongside Bernie's car has slowed enough for the steering to be effective nad he lurches across the track and side swipes David. David is thrown into Casino Square but is able to collect the car and take the right turn on the outside. Bernie meanwhile has decided to get himself going and fires his car around the inside of the same right hand corner, although he can see David's front wheel right alongside. Another contact spins David into the armco and he retires...Bernie carries on.

This all starts with a bad rejoin by Bernie when he should have simply yielded the position to David who was in full control and travelling much more quickly.

Blatant Bad Rejoin: Penalty 2 Places
The rejoining driver was NOT in full control but nevertheless attempted to drive straight back onto the racing line without any consideration for other drivers and contact was made.

Iestyn transgressed the rule that a driver cannot change his car selection once he has completed a timed lap in qualifying and is therefore excluded from the results.

Congrats Rob, Iestyn, Piero! Nice job finishing the season Rob. Very impressive. Congrats on your championship! It's well deserved.


I had just got going and the engine went "pop" and I was a road block for cars behind. SORRY GUYS  Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided. I hit the escape just as someone ( Marco??) hit my gearbox.  Hope everyone got past...I just went to bed!!


That was me Clive. Sad A perfect storm of events to begin my slow march back through the field. I saw you had had trouble when I came out of T1. You were pulling away fine at first. I looked down at the tach for my shift and when I looked up you were much slower than I expected. I couldn't think fast enough to try going over the curb so I braked as hard as possible. Had I not looked down at the tach I may have noticed something wasn't right in time to avoid you. Oh well, that's racing.

Monaco now likes me less than I like it. The more I've driven it the more I've grown to like it but I only seem to have bad luck racing here online.

I enjoyed it. I kept Marco and Donnie entertained for a while. The car didn't drive bad. It would have been nice to have some better luck and not shifted into neutral, sliding 90 degrees into the wall at Mirabeau.

Thanks guys. I hope to see you on the track again soon.

Grats to Robert for the win and the S27 Champ! WD!

Seems I never understand how Iestyn is making such times Shocked
How do you shift? 0.083 sec for upshift and 0.138 sec for downshift, constantly!  Shocked

My race began good as I was lucky to avoid the debris on the track, left from rotating cars in my front.
In a save 3rd position, I was a little confused when I met a McLaren starting after a s+r out of the pits whom I thought was Robert, as ID run a Cooper in practice in my memory...
So I did not want to challenge a teammate and kept behind  Roll Eyes
This brought Piero in my slipstream and I got under pressure what made me sweat so much that it ran into my eyes and I was blinded sometimes. A spin in the tunnel was the result and I lost 2 places...

Not a friend of this track, but some races have made me pretty save here, so I was a little frustrated after the race.

I suspect I understand fully  Roll Eyes

I have admired the speed of all H-shift users (clutch and clutchless) all season, but not the method.

Maybe shift times below the standard GPL defaults should be a topic for debate in the end of season review?

Using GPLShift is not forbidden, even when it gives a slight advantage accelerating, with less neutral upshift time. Iestyn makes the difference with his driving, and not by using GPLShift.

We (the mods) have been discussing about implementing a rule to use Fairshift 2.0 (for H-shifters), to allow for a level playing field, but nothing has been decided yet, and IMO it would be up to the members to vote for in a poll.
