RACE Knukkens departure and some issues with I-was's connection left the field a little scrambled, This takes a while to sort out,
Davidb Leads the field through the esses and takes the green, with the windscreen wiper's on fast and head lights ablaze for the whole field
Ejiff goes straight on at the first turn before the race start, forgetting to change from slicks to wets,
Davidb loses his advantage of Pole position by running wide at turn 3 intermediate tires were to blame, WIDFO follows him through the gravel, Lavandel takes the lead,
I-was goes off at the hairpin, Davidb and TDZdave follow him through the gravel, leaving them in 6th, 7th and 9th, Ejiff still struggles on slicks,
Gatget tries a new line exiting the chicane, replay shows its not fast and he rethinks his strategy,
Running order leading into the Nord section, Lavandel shadowed by his countryman Play, small gap back to Cobani, who has a few car lengths on WIDFO and TDZdave, Davidb, ANFD, Gadget and I-was are left scrambling while Ejiff gently tries to fight his way through the condition's,
Gadget hits the Nordschleife pit wall taking damage and becoming the first victim of the Nurburgring's nasty side, I-was also has damage, unknown as to how it was attained,
WIDFO runs wide at the high speed exit of Hocheichen, giving TDZdave the scare of his life, but gets away unharmed, rejoins almost right behind TDZdave,
I-was-ere has a huge moment on the lead up to Aremburg at over 250KPH sending him into the gravel, gets away without more damage,
PLAY117 Spins on the exit of Ex-Muhle and takes damage, causing Cobani, TDZdave and WIDFO to take evasive action, PLAY does the right thing and waits for the majority of the field to come through before rejoining the action in 8th place 👍 to PLAY,
running order through Klosteral,
Lavandel looking at home in front with a handy gap over Cobani with TDZdave right behind him, WIDFO 3 car lengths behind, another gap to Davidb hanging on quite well on the intermediate tire though its not recommended in these extreme condition's and ANFD keeping him in check, With a large gap back to Gadget, PLAY and I-was who are together in limp mode,
Lavandel spins on the exit of hohe acht, gap evaporates and Cobani takes extreme caution coming up to Lavandel and jumps on the brakes hard, TDZdave nearly runs into the back of him, Lavandel rejoins 8th after waiting for the whole field to go through to rejoin safely, 👍 another good decision made by another Swede, well done,
I-Was gives the high speed right hander coming up to the carousel hairpin a nice clout and takes more damage,
WIDFO runs a little wide for comfort in the lead up to the Carousel, followed by almost missing the groove in the Carousel, costing him time to TDZdave who is almost wearing Cobani as a Jacket,
Lavandel gives a wall a hard lick unsighted,
TDZdave misses the groove in Schwalbenschwanz, WIDFO runs wider but both still keep it on the tar,
Tiergarten, Cobani pulls a few car length's over TDZdave, with a bigger gap back to WIDFO in 3rd, who has gapped Davidb on intermediates and gapped ANFD, Gadget and PLAY lead the damaged cars, while I-was and Lavandel's cars struggle back to the pits leaving Ejiff begging for mercy,
Final corner, Cobani is hesitant on attacking it, catching TDZdave by surprise, TDZdave then goes into attack mode and gives Cobani a Bump down the start straight, Cobani not looking to fight or take damage gives up first position,
ANFD loses control in the final corner complex, taking heavy damage, he leads the damaged cars to pit at the end of the lap, PLAY and Gadget continue around with their minor damage
Davidb is feeling brave and continues around for another lap on intermediates,
WIDFO drops a wheel into the gravel at turn 4, recovers from the minor incident,
TDZdave rounds the hairpin as Cobani runs wide allowing WIDFO to catch up as I-was and Lavandel enter the pits, and Ejiff still pleading for mercy rounds the carousel,
I-was and Lavandel exit the pits after being serviced for damage as TDZdave leads the field into the Nodschleife section once again,
Gadget remains persistent onhis new line through the chicane, only loses time,
Aremburg, TDZdave holds a 5 second lead over Cobani, 2 seconds back is Widfo and 3 seconds behind him is Davidb, PLAY maintains a 6 second gap behind David and has dropped Gadget, while ANFD and I-was try to regain tome lost in the pits and Lavandel takes more damage unsighted on the GP circuit,
I-was takes more heavy damage in the Hoheichen complex, will lose a heap of time limping back to the pits,
Carousel, TDZ maintains a 7 second lead over Cobani, another 7 seconds back to WIDFO, 5 second gap over Davidb, with PLAY reeling him in, Gadget may be regreting not pitting as ANFD pulls him in at a radical rate of knots, I-was and Lavandel are in limp mode as finally at 17m.27s into the race Ejiff gets to the pits and applies the correct shoes on the car,
PLAY has a big moment on the exit of Brunnchen, almost collects Davidb, manages to recover without further damage,
Which brings us to the end of lap 3, I'm tired, I will add more tomorrow,
This replay looks amazing, and when you see it from my perspective it doesn't look as bad as you thought, like PLAY's spin, I honestly thought 3 cars were involved in it, but he did it himself, the rain plays games with your head,
Not sure if I have to work yet. Looking forward to do at least 3-4 laps if I do
with a low point when I opted to go to RM's with a more then 50% wet track.
