So sorry but I've just had the date confirmed for moving house so it's packing madness now.. Therefore I will have to miss the next 2 weeks. Really sorry
 
Good evening

Unfortunately I have to retire from this season due to an unexpected for this evening and the next week I will be in Abu Dhabi

I hope that I will able to get the license in the next season,I'm really sorry

Good luck for the last two races to all drivers and admins
 
I retired from the race and gonna retire from the season.. My plugin hud wasn't showing up so i couldn't do anything. I also couldn't attend in the first Race so there is no point in me continuing this season. I might be back for another one if i find time... Unfortunate.
 
Ok, debriefing:

This race was nearly a nightmare for me. My game froze right after the warmup start, I could hear the sound in the background but was unable to click anywhere on the screen. A ctrl+shift+esc after and I was back in my pit, and on the track hence the green light at pits exit. I tought i could regroup with the pack but I was way too far behind, so I had to clear the lane for everybody: a nice stresstest of my "being lapped" skills.

I was so nervous about rejoining the race fast & safe that I forgot to check my fuel level, started the race with roughly 10 liters, wich definitely eliminated any chance to do something correct (ie stay with the pack and maybe fight a lil bit).
Then came the second error, I decided to pit under code 80 but I took this decision way too late, cutting the grass to rejoin pitlane. Dumbest mistake of my race.

I want to apologize if I caused any trouble to the race, I tried to do my best not to ruin everyone experience. Shoutouts to the yellow GTR that got a lil scratch on his door from my 370z at the end, I owe you a paintjob mate.

Thank you all, especially to the admins too, I hope i didn't make anything wrong.
 
Good race for me although i had a drive-through, happy with 4th position and i tried to cath David Armostrong with fresh tires (but was a bad strategy, i lost like 46 seconds to change them).

@Filippo Marazzi our little touch was funny, was something like "go come on", "no you go np!", "no sir, don't worry go" :lol: :Laugh: I hope there were no problems for you!

Not a race to remember. In quali i did not try so many attempts as i new there where a drive through waiting. Startet P3. Fell back to P7 after drive trough, fought back to P3, then made a mistake and back to P5. First pit stop where just a bit to early as i think many of the others could pit under code 80 and lost quite a lot of time on that, around 20sec i think. Tried to nurse my second set of tyres, but could not avoid pitting for a second time. And just before the end i needed a splash and dash. Damn. Ended P5
 
Had a great battle for 3rd with Jan today in the gt1 category. Really good defending mate. Was exhausted by the end of it as I had been feeling quite ill before the race started. Was worth the effort though. Looking forward to Suzuka.
