Grats to Tony and Paul.
Apologies for leaving an already depleted field last night.
If practice and qualifying went like a dream for me, then the race was a nightmare!! My FF problems returned at the start of the race. Off the grid I had zero "feel" in the steering and hitting Alt-F did not reset things , but I just managed to tip toe through T1 and T2 but on the exit of T3 things got silly and I did a 360. Stalled the engine twice!! but took the opportunity to try Alt-F again and the FF appeared to be working again.
I set off to catch the field and was slowly reeling them in. Kurt vanished and I had just got onto Paul's tail, and could see Tony up ahead, when the FF vanished again !! Paul politely ran wide at the chicane and I slipped past him, but it was only a few corners later that I lost control again, and this time I think I ripped the front splitter off. By now I had picked up 2 "Cut Track" warnings and without FF it was only a matter of time before I completed the set and got an SnG.
I struggled around the rest of the lap intending to do the SnG and take those moments to pound the Alt-F keys until the FF returned, but I failed miserably to control my entry into the pit lane and performed another 360 on the grass hitting the wall.
At that point frankly I lost the plot!!
Today I would willingly spend a couple of hours "fixing" this ruddy FF gremlin, but I have no clue where to search for the problem!!
I blame Windows updates in the absence of any other culprit.
