Championship standings HERE

Grid/server capacity: 22

Track: Rouen (74-94 layout)

Cars allowed: Alpine A364

Practice: ~19:20 (60 mins)
Qualifying: 20:20 (20 mins)
Race: 20:40 (20 laps)

Time of Day Setting: 14:00
Start: STANDING
Tyre wear: Normal
Fuel consumption: Normal
Pit stops required: No

Server: simracing.org.uk Mondays
Password: see above

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

My old eyes missed the first (concrete?!) cursing marker at the chicane but the marker didn't miss my front wheel, so end of an entertaining few laps at Rouen.  I think it's fair to mention that actually Matt is to blame. Apparently gutted by losing his position at the start his pace was scary and he kept closing in by gaining tenths or more  lap by lap so maybe under the pressure I went in a tad too fast,lol. I think he would surely have caught me before lap 10.
I hope the rest of the pack were less unlucky and managed to finish their race.
Thanks for racing everybody and looking forward to the next meeting.

Cheers, Dan

hehe, You were not alone Dan, Osni suffered the same fate on lap 1, and Geoffers had an issue somewhere
I had hit that left pole a few times in practice, so was giving it a wide berth.

After some practice I had the feeling that finishing the race would be good enough top get a decent final position... How right was I  Cool (but I did not manage to "implement" my own self-advice  clown )
14 drivers at the start clap so I was not so sure that my "feeling" would be confirmed. Anyway I intended to play it rather safe during the race...

Things went well for about 3 laps, I was 4th following Geoffers but then I clipped one of the nasty little poles at the chicane entry and thought my race was over. But no, I was lucky and my car was undamaged Shocked so I could carry on, much lower in the classification but still in the race.
Thanks to other drivers misfortunes I could regain my 4th position, about 10 sec behind Nocatu but mostly loosing ground to him... until the 13th lap where the armco took away my two front wheels. eek
Game over!

Big congratulations to all finishers thumbup2 (4 out of 14, this gives an idea how difficult this race course is)

Nice race, I was very keen on finishing this one so I focused my setup towards the race and didn't put any quali laps in as I wanted to start at the back after what happened in the previous race.
During offline practice I noticed that the poles in that chicane can touch your wheel even if you're not actually coming into contact with them so I always kept my distance.
Towards the end I was near Rog but the tyres were pretty much gone; kept spinning so I figured I'd change the backs only. Silly me picked up a stop-go for speeding but luckily Suti was lapped before the end so the eventual penalty didn't cost me a position!

More would have finished if we using the old version without that nasty chicane with the poles and tyres
But we are doing 1972, so it is the right course to use.
I had one spin somewhere, but was lucky to not hit anything

Simply no luck in this series like many others. It's fun driving these cars anyway.

Ah! That explains it then (I really thought I was somewhat clear of the pole when "it hit me" Grin )

But we are doing 1972, so it is the right course to use.

I was just researching this & according to this website the chicane wasn't used until 1974. But I don't think the track is available without the chicane but with the then new link section.

http://theracingline.net/racingcircuits/France/Rouen74.html

Anyway not a long race for me, caught the kerb at the chicane on lap 3 & trying to avoid the tyres I lost the rear & slammed into the barriers losing a wheel. Doh!

Congrats to Matt, Rog & Nocatu.  clap clap clap

Correct. When used in '72 it was the short track format but without the chicane. I was not able to source a mod in this form so had to go with the '74 version with it's chicane added.

Got caught up in the wrecks at the chicane on lap 3.  Cars was wounded but drove around the track to the pits for repairs.  Crew worked on it for what seemed forever.    Restarted after the pits and noticed the car would only run at about half speed.  Also wouldn't turn so went into the armco.  Red mist took over and I punched out.  You would think that as fragile that these cars are that the pit crews would be able to fix them right.  Oh well maybe next week will be better!!!

You lost a front wheel after your Armco hit and unfortunately this will not be fixed in the pit stop.
