Season 34 Historic Trophy – Round 9 – SACHSENRING

The 9th race in the 1966 Grand Prix series takes us to the Sachsenring.
The Sachsenring is a long and terrifying street circuit in former East-Germany that so epitomizes the 1960s Grand Prix scene.  The first race here was held on 26 May 1927 on an 8.7 km (5.4 mile) layout on public roads, running also through the village of Hohenstein-Ernstthal itself. It was dubbed "Sachsenring" in 1937. This track is slightly wider than Schottenring but just as dangerous and no easier to pass on.  There are lots of undulations and slipstreaming straights so it is going to be tough on the low powered cars.  Please take your time trying to overtake, it will be very difficult for following drivers to avoid any wreckage that may be littering the track.

There is no Red Zone. Moderating will be on reported incidents only. Remember that lap 1 incidents carry an additional penalty place.

The chassis token system is explained on the Historics Trophy standings page.

Please restrict chat to pit messages including at the end of the race until ALL drivers still racing have crossed the line.

A driver must have sufficient tokens for the chassis he drives in the race.  Any driver who does not have sufficient tokens will be disqualified from the result and his tokens will be set to zero.

The chassis a driver uses in qualifying are disregarded when determining his token spend.
Note:  This is to cater for the instances when a driver either does not start or inadvertently joins with the wrong chassis and subsequently rejoins the server in another.

Any tokens not spent at the end of the season are ignored and are not used to determine championship positions in the event of a tie.


PRO rules means Shift-Rs are not allowed at any time and the damage model is realistic.
 
Drivers must complete 50% race distance to score.


Available Tokens:
Note: These are the tokens available to each driver before the 10 tokens are added for making the race start.

"Se vuoi finire primo, prima devi finire"   

Tried to drive carefully, nevertheless I didn't last one lap. One tiny mistake here and it is curtains!

My compliment to Dave R. not only for the victory but also for the ability to drive fast on this track.From the time seem that we have 2 photofinish on the finish line.For me all the lap time are unachievable,the track have too places for an exit  .

Thanks, but it was my 2nd 66 win. I also won Mosport last season.

My BT19 was well set up and it allowed me to follow Ziu with its 2,4 L Ferrari until lap 15 when I did a big mistake and lost around 15 sec.
Unfortunately for Ziu, he blowed its engine and I could re-join it and overtook him just on the finish line.

Grats to Ziu for his great race and grats to all finishers on such a difficult track.

I felt that you only had the off because of my error. So it was clear to myself that you had earned that 3rd spot. Apart from that you was much quicker than me. So: Well deserved!
Gratulations to all Finishers!
