UKGPL Season 35 (2019) 1965 F1 - Silverstone - Dec 3

[Billy Nobrakes]

Season 35 1965F1 – Round 10 –  Silverstone

The closing race of the season will take place at Silverstone, home of the British Grand Prix & a GPL original.
Silverstone is built on the site of a World War II bomber base, RAF Silverstone, which opened in 1943. The track hosted the first F1 championship race in 1950. The British Grand Prix has been permanently held here since 1987. The airfield's three runways, in classic WWII triangle format, lie within the outline of the present track. Since 1975 the track has been modified with the introduction of chicanes etc – we will be using the 1960’s layout.
The season will be a mixed grid & free choice of chassis for all drivers. The damage model is intermediate & all drivers are permitted 1 x Reset, followed by a compulsory Stop & Go.

I might not make this race, as I am in hospital tomorrow for an operation. It is keyhole surgery, and that might not be too bad, but I suspect that I won't be totally recovered from the general anaesthetic...…..maybe you won't notice any difference in my driving 

Have fun guys.

[Billy Nobrakes]

Surgery to recalibrate your famous sideways driving style? Is that paid for on the NHS? I might as them to correct the bits on my driving style which are slowing me down.
Hope to see you back shortly.

I had surgery on my keyhole once. I couldn't sit down for a week.

Best of luck and a speedy recovery Clive.

Had a spin about 5 laps in and got stuck n a wall, something I've never done before here.

Reset and spent the race chasing down Dave and Billy.

Billy had a moment as I was closing in but Dave was just too far ahead and I had a moment on the last lap after 28 laps of pushing.

Fun race and an enjoyable season overall.

A shame there were low numbers for most of it so perhaps a different mod for Tuesdays next season? Maybe F2s, I've never tried them.

Also, please don't start the season until I have moved house and set up my kit.
