The event represents one leg of the Triple Crown of Motorsport; other events being the Indianapolis 500, and the Monaco Grand Prix.

Rolling Start! Overtaking is prohibited until curve T4 - Tertre Rouge !!!
Flagman gives the start. Leader drives fast to the Tertre Rouge...

Bad luck, Fulvio. I had it a few weeks ago and felt terrible. Only for a few days though

I can't make this race as my PC has died. Linux suddenly won't load any Nvidia drivers. I've tried everything, including a fresh install of Mint bit still no joy. I suspect that my Nvidia 670 has died. Any ideas?

Hi, yes he is welcome, it would be nice if he is registered here, so I can import the race easier into the SROU database.

My friend is stuck behind the SM.org.uk spam for registrations at the moment. Fingers crossed it all goes through in time!

Thank you all! Very much enjoyed my 2nd ever UKGPL race, sorry for the small love tap in the formation - my TrackIR threw a hissy fit and I couldn't see anything. will get that sorted before the next race I participate in. Thank you again!

Bravo to our podium finishers!  Well done, lads.

Welcome to two FNG's participating here at the UKGPL for the first time to best of my knowledge.  That would be J. Pettet and Kalevi Turpasauna.  Hope that you had some fun, boys.

I engaged in some spirited dicing with old amigo, Andreas, both of us in 330P4's.  That was some fun!  Sadly, we both ran afoul of Kalevi in the Eastwood Chicane* with each of us sustaining significant damage.  Andreas reset but I carried on not fully realizing the extent of my damage.  That became apparent on the Mulsanne Straight when I was down some 20kph on top end.  Sigh...  Just carried on as best I could losing positions as the laps wound down.  Made it home without further dramas which was something of a surprise.  See below...

On December 23, I purchased a digital copy of Automobilista 2 from Steam and installed.  After just getting it up and running, I shut in down.  I fired up GPL and found to my horror that my FFB was shot all to hell.  Feel why stationary was as per usual in swinging the wheel about through its travel but the moment I moved away from rest, it was glaring apparent that something was seriously wrong.  All feel within about a 30° sweep in either direction gave me zero feel when it normally would.  It reminded me of my old 1965 Chevy Malibu with power steering.  You could change direction alright by turning the wheel but it might just have been disconnected from any feel of the road.  Sigh...  Efforts over the last two days to correct this lamentable situation have come up empty.  I even uninstalled AM2 hoping that would fix things.  Nope.  I contacted Steam re the buy and asked for a refund.  They have agreed to this but I'm afraid the damage has been done.

Eastwood Chicane?  Sure.  Why not?  This is the treacherous chicane down-track of Arnage which to the best of my knowledge carries no name that I can determine.  The tie-in with Clint Eastwood is the character he portrayed in his famous spaghetti western films.  We never knew his name so...

BULLETIN!  BULLETIN!
In a late and on-going development, race officials are reviewing the start with Andreas not obeying the pace lap procedure.  True, he did back off and and resume in his proper place before we arrived at Tertre Rouge but officials are not amused.  Race director, Michael Masi, he off 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix fame, has suggested that Andreas be hit with a time penalty of 63 seconds which, oddly enough, would put him just shy one second behind me in the final placings.  That Masi is my brother-in-law has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with his decision, I'm sure.  Wink

Had some fun last night....once i'd installed the right mod (thought SC was just an alias for he GTs and scratched my head for a while wondering why I couldn't join!!!  Once I sorted that I went on the hunt for a setup for the MK IV but didn't find owt so just modified the default, which seemed pretty nice.

Sry for my part in the rolling start crash.  I think I've one ever done one before and have now crashed during both attempts!  I started directly behind JPettet who was going so slowly that everyone else was clearing off (I saw your explanation JPettet, but am none the wiser, guess you couldn't see?).  The slow pace lead to me being alongside, which I shouldn't have been, then I couldn't avoid him as he swung out to the left.  After the crash I had to reset and started last, then passed JPettet who was stationary and set-off after everyone else.  I was in no mans land for a lap or two then came across the two Ferraris piloted by Donald and Andreas as they got going again after an incident.  Doni dropped off but I had a fun battle with Andreas, which I finally lost when going off and hitting a tree.  Interesting fight, the GT40 much faster on the Mulsanne but a handful elsewhere compared to the Ferrari.

Cheers and wishing you all a happy new year (get well soon Fulvio)

So so so sorry for the incident Baab! I was far too meek and scared of wrecking during the formation, I tried to check to my left so I could pull infront of you, the TrackIR lagged and I lost the car. I am a total newb to GPL online racing, only ever competing once before. I was just so annoyed with myself, ofc the only thing I could do was give you the position and hope you would understand.
