Moderator's Report

Round 2 of the Professional championship unfortunatly brought with it the first Lap 1 incidents of the season - 2 of them no-less in order to make up for Monaco!

Despite being nerfed into the haybales on Lap 1 Hristo managed to fight back up to the front of the grid and managed a very convincing win, followed in by a fantastic performance by Clutch with Evil rounding out the top 3


Server replay time: 0h01m33s

Having made a poor start Raoni is making good use of his Waza Turbine and attempting to reclaim lost ground. Approaching the Hairpin he pulls right in order to pass Clive under braking.
He does this successfully but fails to take into account that Clive is closly following Hristo - who is taking his normal line into the hairpin as he is entitled.
This results in Raoni making heavy contact with Hristo's right rear wheel and firing him into the haybales.

When planning an overtaking maneuver it is imperative that you make sure you can do so cleanly, this includes checking that you have space infront of the car you are passing to slow into without endangering another driver.

I have chosen to run with a 'Very Ambitious Overtake' as it is the penalty most fitting to the incident:
The overtaking driver had not achieved any degree of overlap at turn-in. The overtaking driver WOULD have made the corner. Penalty for overtaking driver.

This scenario attracts a 2 place penalty, plus of course the additional 1 point first lap incident penalty


Server replay time: 0h01m35s

Several cars further back up the field Jethro is following Ronnie at quite a distance.
Jethro fails to slow in time for the hairpin (some 50 meters later than most other cars) and realises too late he is going to hit Ronnies car.
He attempts to swerve off the track to the left but clips ronnie as he passes - causing both cars to loose control.

While it is clear that this was an unintentional incident I have no real choice other than to award a 'Blatant Rear End Shunt' to Jethro given the circumstances of the accident:
The victim made no mistakes and was driving their normal line at normal speed. The shunter made no allowance for the victim whatsoever. The shunter was in full control.

This gives a 2 place penalty plus a further place for a lap 1 incident

Finishing 2nd in a Pro race for a Driver of my speed is something to cherish, especially as i was not the fastest on the grid by some distance.

I think i was 8th or 9th by the first corner but managed to fight my way back up via a little skill, and with the help of a couple of Disco's ahead too it must be said.

I was pleased with this one as I really had to work at it. I think Evil was the only pass i felt guilty about as my BT11 easily passed him down the straight on power rather than skill, though it took a few laps to get near him to make the pass a possibility. Other than that i was fighting with the odd BRM and Honda i seem to remember for some of the race so no real car power advantage

Nothing really happened in the last 12+ Laps though i wasn't sure if i could finish as the set up i'd chosen involved high rev's and a very 'lively' diff setting which wasn't the best for a steady run to the finish.

I still wish the races were shorter, but hey, can't complain.

OK for me. Just had a look - the 50% rule is pretty brutal, isn't it!

For me, a race to forget... Embarrassed

On qualy, I managed to get an 1:28,7, which gave me a surprising pole-position. But, remaining 10 minutes to the end of the session, I had a freeze. I was able to return to the server in time, but was afraid to suffer something similar again on race.

I made a terrible start, letting the revs of the Honda decrease a lot when the green flag dropped. Lost 3 places and confused some drivers who were behind me. I just have to say sorry about that Sad

After the first turns, I was behind Evil and tried to pass him at the long straight. Dived inside into the hairpin, but unfortunately touched Hristo's car, sending him off track. I was really afraid of getting him out of the race. Sorry, H. It was totally my fault and I accord with any type of punishment for me. I almost ruined your race. Sad

After this terrible 1st lap, I tried to keep the focus into the remaining laps, but it's very hard when you make a huge mistake like that. You start to think a million things and don't concentrate very well. Trying to chase Natan for the lead, I approached very fast at the first turn. To avoid another contact, I put my car to the outside, went off to the grass and had a spin, losing some places and returning 6th.

Some laps later, I reached a group of 4 cars that were fightinh for the 3rd place. After a short, but funny battle with Evil, my game had another frozen screen at the straight after the hairpin. And it was the end of the race for me.

I'd like to congratulate Hristo for the victory and the rest of the podium. Smiley And to say again sorry for everybody I disturbed yesterday. Certainly was an Andrea De Cesaris' day for me, but I promise that things will be better next race Grin

Thanks for the race and see you next time!

Not had a chance to look at the replay yet but sorry Bernie for ending what should have been a hard fought race long scrap between us. I tried to pass down the inside but it cost us both. On a general point, I thought the full moderation of lap one, regardless of driver reports across the various championships, would have curbed some of the more enthusiastic late breaking into the early corners especially when mayhem can be seen ahead. On the evidence of this race and others so far this season this does not seem to be the case. Its all part of racing I suppose so roll on the next race so we can try again. Last but not least congrats to the podium and all who scored points and/or finshed.

Terrible start, due to that my grid position was just behind Raoni, and very shaky first laps.  I even put in reverse gear at the hairpin once and spun of cause. But then things begun to improve and one after the other either froze or crashed so I went from 9Th to 4Th and with some 10 laps to go I was chasing Evil, closing about 1 sec a lap but the race was a bit too short, so I finished 4Th.

Anyway the result was OK but the way it happend was not. I have to improve the first part of races.

Grats to Hristo, Clutch, the championship leader    rockon and Evil.
