Moderator's Report

After the summer break from last season, picking up from where he left last season, John Hammonds emerged victorious across the Styrian mountains of Zeltweg. Phil Thornton picked up a fine 2nd place after a strong drive and Dave Ranier rounded up the podium with a well deserved 3rd place.

It was great to see some old faces returning for this series. Hope to see you throughout the season gentlemen,

There were two incidents reported this race; both very similar, on the same corner, one lap after another. Unfortunately one of these was on the first lap, and that meant most of the field was involved. Time to dust off the Moderator's cap.....


Server replay time: 0h00m58s

Fran Molteni makes a great start and attempts to pass Billy Nobrakes on the approach to Hella Licht. Fran brakes later than Bill, and is alongside on corner entry, on the outside. Rather than leave room, Fran squeezes Bill and though they almost get away with it, the ensuing contact pitches them both into a spin, causing a roadblock and chaos ensues behind.

Fran was perfectly entitled to challenge Bill by passing on the outside, but he should have left much more room than he did. When overtaking on the outside you are most exposed to warp or lag contact so for self preservation's sake it's always best to leave plenty of space. Fran didn't do that and Bill, and the rest of the field behind, unfortunately fell victim to this error. The drivers behind did a commendable job in trying to avoid the pair of stricken Brabhams, but first lap incidents are always tricky to avoid.

Billy Nobrakes did nothing wrong. He was a constant distance from the inside kerb throughout the incident.

The following link is a good reference for learning where a fellow racer's car is visible from your own. Note the large blindspot!
https://www.ukgpl.com/index.php/rules/overlap

A simple side by side contact on Fran's part will be applied, with an additional penalty for a first lap incident.


Server replay time: 0h03m20s

In an eerily similar manner to the first incident. After serving his stop and go penalty, Fran emerges from the pits, getting up to speed on the inside line on the approach to Hella Licht. Geoff is catching rapidly and tries to overtake on the outside, but misjudges the speed differential between the two and ends up squeezing Fran, as Fran did to Bill a lap earlier, and contact is made.

The same advice can be applied as the first incident, as well as the penalty.

Season 32 Privateers Trophy – Round 1 - Zeltweg 1971

The first race of Season 32 race finds us in Zeltweg Austria. Zeltweg - the original Österreichring. Built in 1969 to replace the bland and bumpy Zeltweg Airfield circuit, the track was known for being very fast, as every corner was a fast sweeper and taken in no lower than 3rd gear in a 5-speed gearbox and 4th in a 6-speed gearbox.  There are also noticeable changes in elevation during the course of a lap which means the downhill sections are even faster. Like most fast circuits it was a hard circuit on engines and even harder on tyres simply because the speeds were so consistently high.

Note the Privateers division is run on Intermediate damage settings. Drivers are permitted 1 Shift R followed by a Stop & Go in the pit lane within 2 laps. Failure to make a stop will result in a 30 second time penalty. If you require a stop & go on the final lap & are unable to complete a time penalty of 15 secs is added.

Just download the file in the link above, unzip it and copy the contents to your zletweg track folder overwriting the offending file.

Quite why the crowd noise is there in the original release is beyond me.  It is massively irritating!!

Looks like I'll be following in Kimi's footsteps with my race ending before it starts. I keep getting '10051 Error detected on network device' whether I try to join via IGOR or directly through Multiplayer.

I can't remember seeing that before and nothing has changed on my set up since last season.

No worries though - I bought myself an Oculus Rift a few weeks ago so I'll go and play Dirt Rally on that.

Race afflicted by 2 incident,one at the start with Billy and one at the restart.During the test i was able to do 1,4661 but in the qualy and particulary in the race my time was markledy higher.Probably is due to the frame rate,when i race alone i have 60fps constantly in the race ,some time,drope to 30.

If that relates to Windows socket error 10051,  then looks like destination network unavailable.
At a guess - any local software firewall/security running on your machine? [maybe there have been some silent updates recently...?]

Or worth investigating local internet gateway - cable/DSL router etc.  Maybe GPL traffic has become blocked for some reason;  although your browsing access would otherwise appear to be fine?!].  


Cheers,
Dave.

Very good race for me, I managed to only miss one gear so I must be getting used to the clutch

Jeep was more consistent than me, he didn't make any mistakes. I did my usual trick of spinning off (3 times) but luckily I managed to hang onto second place.  Grats John, excellent driving.  Grats to David on a podium.

The qually times were very close, it couold be a very exciting season Cheesy

Well Chuffed with that. Very close qualifying times and I was expecting a close race. It was a real shame about the T1 incident. I think by the back straight on Lap 1 it was Phil, Me and Dave Curtis separated by around 100yds overall then a big gap back to Dave Rainer in his Cooper. The rest of the pack having got caught up in the T1 collision. Sad

Phil wasn't hanging about and inch by inch he pulled out a 100yds or so and I managed to do the same to Dave. I could see I was a little quicker than Phil in some parts of the lap but he was destroying me from the Bosch Kurve all the way through to Schikane. I had had problems with that part of the lap all through qualifying and I just couldn't seem to get it right at all but was able to claw the gap down from Rindt  Kurve all the way through to Dr. Tiroch Kurve.

Then around Lap 5 he put 2 wheels on the grass exiting Tiroch and I was almost back on his tail by Bosch. Fortunatly for me I was still around 50yds back when he spun into the barrier and I just about had time to shave off enough speed to pass on the inside as he recovered. The next few laps were spent with Phil large in my mirrors until he spun again entering Tiroch and Prib told me my 50yd advantage had suddenly become more like 300. A few laps later it leapt again to 500 and I could see Dave was now with him.

From then onwards I just concentrated on my lines while keeping a watch on Prib to make sure he wasn't getting too close. I had a few moments noticeably a big kick cresting the brow into T1 and ended up taking the long way around glancing off the barrier. This put Phil back within about 300yds but I was able to manage the gap in the final laps.

So a very unexpected win Congrats to Phil for 2nd and a great drive from Dave rounding off the podium in his Cooper.

Commiserations for those involved in the incident at the start. Sad

Thanks guys.

TTFN
John.

Congrats podium! I qualified in 5th, and finished in 5th. I wasted a little time recovering from the T1 incident. I eventually rejoined the race. My engine blew up a lap later. I did a stop and go, and then all was good. The Cooper handled great in each corner. I was only able to get into the 1:47s twice. That was a PB for me in the Cooper.

I normally don't feel comfortable behind the wheel of the 67 F1 cars. They are a blast when you find a good set-up.

I had done about 23 moderately paced laps without even the slightest thought of wandering about in the weeds when John Hammonds appeared in my mirrors to lap me. To demonstrate to the leader how skillfully I was maneuvering my way from here to there, I proceeded to slide off the track to the right, perform a perfect pirouette, and return to the pavement effortlessly.  As John disappeared in the distance, I could hear him laughing. That cost me maybe 15 seconds, though I'm not sure it was worth the trouble.
