I'm sure you guys will have more luck next time. I had a good setup and my pole position helped much. Minty was very fast and could have won if the safetycar didn't come in the race, this allowed me to make my pit earlier and be faster towards the end.

Good luck in Sepang ;).

Sometimes I find this game far too frustrating. Every single practice lap I did it said that I was over-enthusiastic and so had to do extra laps; meaning that I did three instead of six practice laps. I think that was ever so slightly unlucky considering I only had experimentation at 70 ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

I think game loves to torment us Archi... I'm just waiting for my next breakdown when leading by like two laps with 3 to go :furious:

Unlucky Nick. Seems you had the patented bad luck start in this race. :cry:

I'm pretty darn happy at leading the race for almost the whole time. I couldn't believe that something didn't happen to me, ala Minty, at the end of the race. Octavian was very unlucky not to get past me; he was flying round the track in the final laps!

I see that, no one can get past me the legal way so they have to shove me off the track! ;)

Well Ox... as I said in the race commentary... Another 10 laps I'd have caught you :racing: unfortuantely my engine would have then sprung from my hood and taken my head off with a lap to go :doh: so I guess it's all for the best 8-) Congrats on the win... another solid finish my Team Bull though :bull:

I have exams, so I don't think I'll be able to fully compete in the next races. Good luck to you all!

That's where having a teammate comes in handy because they can take over your car while you're busy :cry:

On another note: I WON THE RACE :joy: I think it's fair to say I dominated that one. This is quite a turnaround from the bad luck I've had in the previous two seasons!

Bah you were really unlucky to not win that race, Nick. It was just your pitstop at the end that cost you first place :doh: Congrats to Ox and CatchUp for the 1-2 finish.

Another Calv 1-2 finish :joy: Although I was very lucky to hold on to second after the collision with Minty at the end. CatchUp managed to close the gap from about 23 secs down to a fraction of a second.

Just down to me and you Archi... with only twenty points to play for. May the best man win.

And whatever happens... the championship remains in England..... :joy: :uk:

Yeah well since I was ahead of you you weren't able to smash me off the track as you usually do :furious:

And also have I mentioned lately how much I hate the weather thing?
