Season 36 1967F1 – Round 1 – Monaco - Seniors
Welcome to the opening race of Season 36 which will be a joint series between GPL Brazil and UKGPL. This post is for the Senior level drivers.
The Monaco Grand Prix has been run since 1929, and is widely considered to be one of the most important and prestigious automobile races in the world, alongside the Indianapolis 500 and the 24 Hours of Le Mans (informally known as the Triple Crown of Motorsport). The circuit has been called "an exceptional location of glamour and prestige." The race is held on a narrow course laid out in the streets of Monaco, with many elevation changes and tight corners as well as a tunnel, making it one of the most demanding tracks in Formula One. In spite of the relatively low average speeds, it is a dangerous place to race. The first race in 1929 was won by William Grover-Williams driving a Bugatti. The event was part of the pre-Second World War European Championship and was included in the first Formula One World Championship in 1950. It was designated the European Grand Prix two times, 1955 and 1963, when this title was an honorary designation given each year to one grand prix race in Europe. Graham Hill was known as "Mr Monaco" due to his five Monaco wins in the 1960s.

Senior server is provided by GPL Brazil as in race announcement. It was up on IGOR but didn't have SENIOR in the comment field. Sorry for the confusion.

Have nothing much to tell, as everybody was in a slower car. Could manage a clean race, without any mentionable incidents. Got a little happier when overlapping started -felt like not being all alone then Gratulations to Greg for P2, Frank for P3 and all finishers!!! hopefully see you next time! tim

Congratulations super Tim, a dominant victory !!!! Also to Greg for his impressive recovery and Miele for winning the podium. I am very happy to be able to achieve this union, I must especially thank Phill and Billy, who made a great effort for the joint adaptation of the leagues. I hope that this work brings more fun to the pilots, now two servers can give the juniors a better competitiveness and excitement, I hope the pilots liked the news. My race was ruined by small mistakes, which is prohibited in Monaco!

Grats to Tim on the win and to all finishers. lol!! I agree with Tris almost 20 years of driving GPL and I still cannot tame that 67 BRM If I could find the hidden pace in the BRM my GPL Rank would change dramatically. As things stand I don't think I have a single benchmark time for that car ??!! I worked on a BRM setup for Monaco and was actually very satisfied with the laptimes on race fuel, but it seemed that, after a few laps, when the tyres were beginning to get up to working temperature the handling became unpredictable and the rear end would simply overtake the front end??!! Strangely, that did not happen on absolutely cold tyres!! but maybe it is my driving and NOT the car
