Season 40 takes us on a Scandinavian based competition with a few excursions into other Northern countries.

Round 5 takes us to Falkenberg. A short track but it has some tricky corners which you need to get right to post a fast lap. This is a short lap length so there will be quite a few cars being lapped which requires that ALL drivers are aware of cars around them.

 The full time drivers can start to practice as soon as the server is available.  
Reserve drivers can also join as soon as the server becomes available but must leave the server with 35 minutes of qualifying left, for a total of 5 minutes; this will allow any remaining full timers to join.  If there is enough space on the grid, the reserve drivers will be able to rejoin when there are 30 mins of qualifying left.  
 

Handicapping
Drivers are required to drive all 7 cars and no car can be driven more than twice.

Drivers are reminded that Lap 1 reported incidents carry an extra 1 place penalty.

Unlimited resets will be allowed with no need to make a S&G in the pit lane.

Having just put some laps in - you are right!
Any enjoyment is likely to tail off once the lapping starts around lap3-4 (if I can hold it off that long!)

As some of you have noticed, this circuit is shorter than many that we use.
But, because it is short, it offers a challenge to drivers of all abilities.

There will be multiple times when the faster drivers will need to lap slower cars, so would ALL drivers please read and understand the UKGPL guidelines for lapping slower cars.

DO NOT EXPECT CARS THAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO LAP TO THROW THEMSELVES OFF OF THE ROAD.

THE SLOWER CAR SHOULD NOT DELIBERATELY IMPEDE THE LAPPING CAR,

BUT, IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE FASTER CAR TO MAKE A SAFE PASS.   

No server on Igor?

thanks to the car that just could not wait just a FEW YARDS MORE..    i was just about to enter the main straight.. i would have given loads of room as i had been at all other times when being passed.

I may not be the fasted out there, but i was making decent and safe enough speed for this not to happen yet again..  just becuase im one of the sloiweer guys why should race after race be spoiled for me.

not best pleased ro be honest.

i lost track position..thx

Bastian and Tom... how exciting was that? Awesome fun.  

Bastian, sorry about the bump as I was letting Yannick through to lap. Glad to see that you got away with it. My fault for shutting the door on you too soon. I managed to crawl my way back up the field but then I span on lap 63 of 64 and had to settle for 7th position.

Phew! Now I can breathe again.

See you next time.

Sorry to return on this, but I watched my replay and you lifted out of last turn just before the haybails inside where we are supposing to go full throttle accelerating. I were just behind you and couldn't avoid you. Anyway sorry if I ruined your race.
