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

Sorry guys, I am going to give this a miss. I think it is well known that I don't like this version of Silverstone & I have been tempted by RaceRoom's 2hr Enduro event in their wonderful VW Scirocco on the same evening at Brands. Have fun.

OT - but today is a really sad day as the "Queen of the Nordschleife" and two times winner of the "24 Hours Nürburgring", Sabine Schmitz - also well known in the UK - passed
away at the age of 51:

https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/motor-racing/sabine-schmitz-death-age-cause-top-gear-b1818307.html

Watched her racing the Frikadelli Porsche countless times on the Nordschleife.

Totally shocked.

RIP

 Sad Embarrassed

I think I'm right in saying that she came to UK attention on the Top Gear motoring program when she did the Nords in a stripped out Ford Transit van

She seemed like quite a feisty lady who didn't take and carp from anyone.

RIP Sabine

Far less bad than expected, the more as I really like the track - unexpected new pb in quali and another one in race and most of my laptimes in between.

Got irritated by my XD as I misinterpreted my fuel consumption which in fact showed the number of laps I still could have driven  Roll Eyes
So I slowed down a little bit for some laps to save fuel what would not have been necessary and Tony came up big behind me.

But the bigger problem was/is that after one year in home office on an improvised workplace I'm affected by increasing muscular tension
which often lead to worsening headaches during racing.

So - after Tony passed, I made my first heavy mistakes and due to headaches couldn't concentrate any longer.  Tongue

Fun as long as it lasted.

This was another Me vs Daz episode.

I was a little bit slower than him on the qualy as i drove with race setup because the car was very bad with less fuel, i had a lot of oversteer.

So at the start i was able to overtake him and took the lead. And i drove with 70 liters, more than needed, but the car was flying.

Daz made a mistake and went down to P5, 10 seconds behind me. Sooner he started to drive amazing and was gaining on me in every lap.

At the end he was able to catch me and we started a fight for the victory just few laps before the end. I try everything to protect my lead and i knew i need to protect the inside but at the end he was just faster and on penultimate lap he took the victory and i never saw him again Cheesy

Amazing performance from Daz and great recovery.

Grats to him for the victory and to Micha for his podium. It was a great race.

Incredibly hard and ultimately disappointing race.

First 4 cars were all aligned on the grid, so no particular benefit for the pole sitter.  Got a good start, grabbing the lead, but Dimitar made it past later on L1.  Dan was a pest for a couple of laps, but then let Micha through.  By driving to my absolute max lap after lap, I could just about maintain a gap of 2 secs.  Wondered what had happened to Daz, as he disappeared after the start. Doubted we had seen the last of him, and sure enough, a black shape appeared behind Micha's car in my mirror.  I hoped the two would slow each other down, but if anything, being chased by Daz seemed to make Micha go faster.

Daz got past Micha, caught me and moved on.  I couldn't shake Micha no matter how hard I tried, and once he got close enough for slipstream it was basically game over. We swapped places a few times, but of course he eventually got in front to stay there.  I spun the car on one of the final laps, putting a wheel outside the track, which was the final nail in the coffin for anyl podium aspirations.

Grats to Daz for the win and Dimitar + Micha for their podiums.

Dimitar: Notice in your video that your track textures gets very blurry just in front of the car.  If you go into your video card driver settings and set Anisotropic Filtering to 16x, and set it to overrule the game settings, they will be sharp all the way to the horizon.  Unless you're on a very ancient video card, it should not have much of a performance impact.

Thanks Erling. But i can't find where to add the card to overrule the game settings.
