Sure, but since I post on a desktop, and the pictures just help visualise my post, it looks much different to me.
It's also a lot to scroll through on a PC. It's just especially so on mobile.

But I will try that next time, but if i used that feature, then it would not really be a spoiler then would they? LOL.

If your finger getting tired from scrolling?
Not so much so that it can't press other buttons when a simple request to make things nicer for everyone is met with unnecessary sass.
 
What is it with entitled morons not leaving space for a Qualy lap and fighting for position to ruin both laps?

Edit: Lol, DR A but SR B, tried to biff me off at Les Combes, ran wide at Pouhon and rejoined into the side of me, actually biffed me off at Blanchimont so I ended up 13th, blamed me for being "too slow", finished the race two spots and 2.5s ahead of me, and with DR and SR both down.

Some people are just ass-clowns.

Was all excited about this morning, I even splashed out the 20 million on the Merc. Sadly my 3 races were just shocking. First 2 Qualification laps on my main account were ruined by idiots thinking QT was the actual race and wiping me out. Started p16 for both. Managed to get into the top 10 both races only to get blown off the track by people who just seemed to be there to cause trouble. Decided to switch accounts as that would have me in B splits and I wrongly assumed it would be cleaner 🙈🙈🙈 Anyway, I started p5 and was sent to Narnia at the first corner 🤬🤬🤬 I kept going at the back for a few laps but was so dejected I just quit and turned off the ps5. Very disappointed as I don't get much time these days and it just gets ruined then 😕
 
That went pretty well. I qualified P9 and finished P2.

I decided to hop into the first GT1 slot at 2PM, and i was in the same lobby as @bliprunner, and it was nice to race against blip for the first time (iirc).

Qualifying never went well because i cut across raidillon a bit too much which gave me a 0.5 second penalty, which ruined my lap, plus i accidentally short shifted after the penalty zone as well. So i ended up qualifying down in P9.

The race went much better tho. During the first couple of laps, i gained a couple of positions and i was now in P4. Then later in the race P3 binned it while battling with P2, and then a couple of laps later P2 ended up binning it as well. During the last 3 laps, Bliprunner was slightly closing the gap each lap once he broke free from traffic, and that made the last couple of laps a little bit nervy because i didn't want to make a small mistake and allow Blip to close in even more.

I knew i maybe could've pushed a little bit harder and looking back at the replay confirmed that, because the people around me were braking slightly later for some of the corners and carrying a little bit more speed through Eau Rouge and Raidillon, but during the race i didn't want to risk anything since i was in P2.

Put it on pole by 0.888. I was excited until another guy finished a lap and was only .054 behind me, but still hopeful. I went a bit deep at turn 1, 2nd and 3rd went past. I thought it was pushy at the time but looking at the replay I went deeper than I thought. 3rd ended up with a penalty on the first lap and I took back the place until lap 8, where he eventually passed me. I followed and tried a move at Pouhon on the last lap, only to completely mess the corner up and nearly go wide. Couldn't get it back so I finished 3rd.

I did get a penalty the first lap I followed the other guy up the hill, and I had to go for a walk to see where:

I don't think it's possible to be any further 'off' the track than this. Very frustrating to be comfortably(ish) in 2nd while 1st just disappears at the rate of a second a lap, but points are points. And I'm now in DR A for the first time in GT7, so I get to do the big boy races whenever they come back.

I had a better time of it than @Famine whose nemesis seemed a very angry man.
