Championship standings HERE Grid/server capacity: 22 Car/Track download available by pm to WT Track: Silverstone '75 GP Practice: ~19:20 (60 mins) Qualifying: 20:20 (20 mins) Race: 20:40 (28 laps) Time of Day Setting: 14:00 Start: STANDING Tyre wear: Normal Fuel consumption: Normal Pit stops required: NO Server: simracing.org.uk Monday Password: see aboveNotes: (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

Anyone able to successfully download a track from Altbierbude? I just get a blank screen after clicking the track download link. I'm able to download from Race Department Ok. Could someone please try for me and report back here? Thanks in advance.

At some time in the future I'll re-install Chrome. That will probably fix it.

A short race for me. I left it a bit late to practice and couldn't find a set up. Decided to go with the default for the race. At the end of qually was just getting the hang of it and felt there were faster laps to come. Made a cautious start on purpose (not that I was able to go much quicker anyway) thinking I would try to keep in touch and see how things went. Best laid plans and all that. At the end of lap one I met an upside down (I think) car at the chicane and was unable to avoid it writing off my suspension so my race was over. Hope all or most enjoyed their race. Grats winner and podiums.

Well known layout of Silverstone, but still found the driving very tricky. It was so easy to overdo it and run wide through the corners.
Race itself largely uneventful. Running 5th at the end of L1, when I slipped unscathed beneath the spectacularly cartwheeling cars of Geoffers & Ziu. Elevated me to 3rd, and the next many laps was spent chasing Dimitar. More or less kept pace with him; gap around 2 secs; some laps gained a little, others lost a little. Surprised he could go over the left part of the chicane repeatedly - for me it was pure poison, trying to throw the car out of control, so had to be avoided. He finally got out of shape though, sliding off and kissing the barrier, sadly ending the chase. Had a decent gap to the car behind, so no more drama for the remainder of the race. At one point the otherwise growing gap to Daz in the lead, suddenly dropped by 2 secs. Smelling blood, I upped the pace, but it was a one-off fluke, as I never got any closer.
Grats to Daz & Matt, commiserations to all the unfortunate ones.

That was probably me Misnoimis, sorry, I should have hit Esc sooner. Yeh, short race. Tailing Ziu into the chicane at the end of lap 1, he got out of shape over the right kerb which sent him left into the large barrier, bounced back right into my path. It happened so quickly there was nothing I could do to avoid him. Hoped I would be out of the way of the following cars but as I said, I should have hit Esc straight away, so sorry to anyone else who got involved. Congrats to Daz, Erling & Matt.

Not to much to report here. The car was unpredictable with my setup and easy to make a mistake. Everything was OK and i was in P2 just slower than Daz but keeping 1.5-2 secs ahead of Erling and them - the car totally lost grip on the final chicane, making a slip and hitting the barriers. After that i totally lost desire to race and this is totally because of the car. I just can't have with this one. After the hit i was slower, maybe because of damage or the tires, but probably to be fair because i lost focus. Matt was going great and was able to overtake me for the podium. I try to stay with him, but he was faster. Grats to Daz on another win with this car and on braking the curse and to Erling and Matt on their great pace and consistency.
