Season 39 – 1955 GP - WORKS – Round 4 – Assen
The fourth race in the 1955 Grand Prix series finds us at Assen in the Netherlands. Assen has a long history of motor racing. The first event, a motorcycle race, was held in 1925 on country roads through the villages of Rolde, Borger, Schoonloo and Grolloo. Between 1926 and 1954, the Dutch TT (Tourist Trophy) motorcycle race, was held on the Van Drenthe circuit. This was a 10.27 miles street circuit through De Haar, Barteldsbocht, Oude Tol, Hooghalen, Laaghalen and Laaghalerveen. In 1955 a new purpose built track was inaugurated which was shorter than the original but at 6.049 miles it was still a long track by modern standards. Over the years the track has been through numerous modifications which have changed its length each time. The 1967 version we are using tonight is 4.8 miles long. Although more famous for motorcycle racing, the track has been used for car racing (BOSS GP, Champ Car, DTM and several junior classes) but never for Formula 1.

The server is up on iGOR for testing. I've been advised that there may be an issue with the 55s on this track. Please install the no-freeze patch before you test the server and let me know if you experience any screen freezes.

I've done quite a bit of running on the server whilst trying to sort out graphics issues on my pc, not track related.
I have not had any issues and I am running the no-freeze patch.

It is the USA F1GP at Austin this weekend and as usual we have a clash of timing. Does anyone have an objection to delaying our race by 30mins to allow people to watch the F1 race if they wish to? The revised times would be: Qualifying starts | = | 21:15 UK time - 45 minutes | Race starts | = | ~ 22:00 UK time |

It's fine for me to change the schedule, but I will try to be present at any time.

I can start the Works server at the normal time and the Privateers at the later time if that is the best compromise.
