Moderator's Report

Summary
A titanic battle between the two Clives saw Evil narrowly edge the win. Their qualifying times and fastest laps were almost identical in the same car, the very popular Connaught. It may take some tactical choices of chassis to separate them this season. Third place was secured by Ziu Bacubacu in a Ferrari 625.


Server replay time: 0h01m41s

Lap 1 – Sacramentshelling - Francesco Molteni and Greg Taber
Francesco is settling into the race in his Maserati with Greg close on his tail in his Gordini. As they approach Sacramentshelling, Francesco is quite rightly cautious on cold tyres, Greg misjudges the situation and gets too close to the back of the Maserati. Contact is made and unfortunately the rather overzealous GPL collision engine launches Francesco into the air and out of the race. Greg can continue apparently unscathed.

It is the responsibility of a following driver to avoid contact. Francesco did nothing wrong. Greg was understandably trying to stay close in the underpowered Gordini but the lack of decent brakes in this mod is a real problem when trying to take evasive action. Greg tried hard to avoid contact but the brakes were not good enough and he has to take responsibility for the incident.

Season 36 – 1955 Grand Prix – Round 1 – Zolder

The first race in the 1955 Grand Prix series takes us to Zolder in the Belgium. Built in 1963, Zolder hosted the Formula One Belgian Grand Prix on 10 separate occasions in the 1970s and 1980s, as well as the 1980 Belgian motorcycle Grand Prix. F1 moved to Zolder in 1973 and with the exception of a race at Nivelles-Baulers in 1974, Zolder was the location of the Belgian Grand Prix until 1982. That year, Canadian driver Gilles Villeneuve was killed during qualifying at the 1982 Belgian Grand Prix. Villeneuve's Ferrari 126C2 collided at speed with the March of Jochen Mass. The Ferrari was torn up in the accident and when rolling, Villeneuve was thrown from the car.

After Villeneuve's death, the Belgian Grand Prix was held at Spa-Francorchamps in 1983, before returning to Zolder one final time in 1984. Fittingly, Ferrari driver Michele Alboreto won the race carrying Villeneuve's #27 on his car. Since 1985, the Belgian Grand Prix has permanently moved to Spa.

Hi, Phil.  Long time, no see...

Thanks for organizing this.  Looking forward to having some fun in the GP55's.

I think that you might revise my standing to 'Senior' considering that I am, in another universe, Lance deBoyle.

Hi Doni

Good to see you back. I'm looking forward to this 55 season too. It is my favourite mod at the moment. The brakes are bad but it is a thinking man's series. There is time to think and plan a manoeuvre, it isn't all about flat out racing. I drove in the 69x race on Tuesday and the speed is manic. You don't have time to think, it is all instinctive. I missed so many gears because the revs climbed so fast it was all clutch shift clutch shift  clutch shift miss grind.....

In the light of your Clandestines Trophy results, I've amended your grade from Junior to Senior. A more fitting status for a champion.

I've loaded the chassis the drivers used into the token calculator spreadsheet.  For the next race the available tokens will be as declared in the table below (the table will also appear in the next race announcement).  The calculated values are automated but selecting the cars is a manual process so please check your tokens to make sure I haven't made a silly error. There was no token overspend for this round so no one is disqualified.

Thanks to Taber a very beautiful start of the 55 Season,nor half lap.

I apologize Fran. I wasn't expecting you to slow on one of the fastest sections of track. With you warping I didn't realize it until it was too late.

Congrats Clive, Clive, and Ziu!

I was doing well until my car quit braking for T1. I never could save enough brakes for T1.

That was an action loaded race !

I thougt about saving points and took the gordini, which was more difficult than i expected.

I'm still confused about the missing tacho light, so i did not see when my brakes faded....

Anyway, great start, avoiding all flying cars and found myself on 6th.

Faster cars and some spins brought me down to a final great fight with fulvio.

When Clive came to lap i was not sure how to manage it good, and i let him pass on the backstraight,
but i saw on pribluda that he had plenty gap to second position.

I put some pressure and unluckly clive spun, sorry, not my intention.
On the last lap fulvio overtook at the line and i was hoping i saved enough brake to reattack,
but as always on the 55 cars you lose the brakes just about 1 second to early.
Same happend to DuLima with me in the beginning of the race i guess?

So, i saw Fulvio in the fence/hill. My car was still drivable but after i knew he was in front me at the line
i retired the car so he stayed in front of me, not the way to gain a position.

So, i hope for a great season and me in a faster car !

That was a close one.  Evil nicked pole by 0.021 seconds but by then I was doing a long run on race fuel and was seeing problems with the tyres and didn't bother to respond.

In the race, I was beaten off the line by Ziu's Ferrari and could not get past for some time, whilst Evil made his escape.

In 55mod you can usually expect mistakes, from anyone, but sadly it was me who made the first error, whilst trying not to ram Ziu.  That let Phil past, so now I had two cars between me and Evil!

Eventually, both Phil and Ziu had grassy moments and I was able to resume my pursuit of Evil.

It was soon apparent that we were doing similar lap times and I didn't feel that I had enough brakes to do anything more.  Having followed Ziu at the start it took me several laps to get my brakes back under control.

So that was it really.  I closed a little at the end when Evil encountered Fulvio and Bastian but otherwise it was stalemate to the flag.

Congratulations to Evil, perhaps I shall have to try harder to get a head on the grid in future.
