You hit the brakes a full 100 meters before the braking point. Through the spray, I couldn't see you. By the time I saw you their was nothing I could do.Argo what happend?
Aah ok it looked like You die it in purpose but yes i couldnt see anything either i think thats why i braked so early .You hit the brakes a full 100 meters before the braking point. Through the spray, I couldn't see you. By the time I saw you their was nothing I could do.
Oh and don't type when race or Q is going. You could've easily distracted another person in to a mistake. Don't do it.
Edit: Watched the replay from your point of view. Looks more like 150M too early. No wonder I plowed into you
You forgot to set your clock to summertime. One hour fowardYou guys are on BST now hey? Seems to be the race started an hour earlier than what it'd normally be for me!
Ced, for me you did great mate. I really have no idea how you managed the laps you did without a wheel as the weather got worse.OH MAN!!!
So bumped right now... so disappointed... I gave a lot of effort and practise into this race as I had a very good feeling, but yet again, could not manage.
I was all pumped up with the practise sessions, feeling good up to 65% on IM, i could handle that, i could handle myself for that one difficult lap before it goes down to dry but it never got to that. Boy was i not ready for rain and complete darkness (why the change in game time from 2100 to 2110?).
Three practise sessions and three times the same weather scenarios, what happened??? i guess i still have a lot to learn on that aspect as well.
The change of schedule, 15 minutes earlier, meant that my boys were not in bed yet. They wanted to watch the Q session, got distracted by my 3 yo and spun in the last corner before pit entry... could have qualified around P7 maybe.
With the room connection problem, my settings got reset (PP and gearbox)... including manual transimission which i did not discover until the race had started. Not off to a great start of the evening and it did not get better with the weather. i was looking at that pourcentage staying at 100% every lap... Congratulations to you who are just gliding on the water, real pleasure to watch on the replay
On the positive note, i'm so proud of my first two laps (before the cats and dogs fell from the sky). It felt like I belonged... probably my only chance to appear in the video summary: first lap, second chicane: double pass move!!!
I thought I would do better now that I'm part of Mercurial Racing, sorry @xChris93_, I thought I had this one... Congrats to you on your victory full of panache.
Off to the next one...
I'm in Australia, man lol. BST doesn't affect me only that you guys are now 9 hours behind instead of 10.You forgot to set your clock to summertime. One hour foward
Is tokyo going to be a day or night race?Ced, for me you did great mate. I really have no idea how you managed the laps you did without a wheel as the weather got worse.
We did post last week that it would be 15 minutes earlier and its back to the original time.
Overalkl i was very impressed as i saw you climb the leaderboard, i remeber that in the week you trained very well, but you should not be at all dissapointed, you have come a long long way quickly, as last race you were jumping aside to let others past, this race you were very fast.
Crashing or making mistakes in the wet over 50% is nothing to be ashamed of, its a lottery, and 1 little tiny mistake can cost so so much time specially if you get damaged.
Overall a huge improvement Ced, and again, the weather, how crazy, i have done so much training, every time it would dry out after 30 minutes, i was praying, please stop raining, Tokyo will seem easy for you Ced.
No Pedro, Lol the base weight is only for drivers who would miss a race and come back at a lower weight than base due to not scoring any points and dropping down the standings below base weight, this is for drivers only who would come back below base weight.Shouldn't I go with base weight too as I missed last round?
Ah, thats a typo, sorry - i will have to edit that.I had to ask to be sure and because I can see this in the rules: "Any driver that cannot take part in race 1 will start Race 2 with the base weight of 1230kg, whatever championship position they hold."
Well I'm just a driver like everybody else, it wasn't on purpose that I missed the race and I think I got penalized enough by not scoring any points in the previous race.
Anyway if the rules applied to previous users in same situations then I'm fine with it, like I said I just wanted to be sure
