Congrats Bart on the pole. 👍
Excellent job commentating, Tim and Paul. Seriously sounded like you guys are professionals, sitting side-by-side in the best seat in the house at Nurb GP/F.
Are we going to have two lounges no matter what happens or only one if we get below 17 confirmed?
PLEASE NOTE***
We are splitting the race today into two lounges. Be sure to check which room you are racing in. F1German GP Qualifying results and lounge assignments
Please arrive a minimum of 30 minutes early to be sure there are no connection issues. Good luck today!
(A) - will be in GTP_3D3_A
(B) - will be in GTP_3D3_B
Haven't heard from RPH so that's looking like a cancel. Would have at least appreciated an update.

Might not make it for quali, is it still too late to pre-quali?
Formula One Style Formation Lap and Standing Start
- Once the starting order is confirmed by the steward all drivers should enter the pits.
- When all drivers are in the pits, the steward will call the drivers one at a time onto the track and the drivers will line up in single file behind the pole sitter in order to stage the grid.
- Once all drivers are in their proper start positions the steward will start the race countdown timer.
- After the system places you on the grid for the start, drivers will line up single file and proceed with the formation lap.
- At no time should the pacing car exceed 200 kph and all turns will be taken at reasonable speeds.
- Weaving or other tire warming procedures ARE allowed during the formation lap - please be careful.
- Following the exit of the final corner all drivers will proceed to their appropriate grid starting marker.
- The race clock in the top right corner of the screen will then be utilized for timing the race start.
- At exactly 3 minutes (3:00.000) on the clock the race starts.
- If there is a problem staging the grid any driver can delay the start by one minute, but must do so by chat announcement at least 15 seconds prior to the start time.
- Should any driver mistakenly start prior to the designated mark they must lift immediately so as to not gain position from the error prior to turn 1.
- Be cautious and courteous in the first turn. Dive bombing will be penalized and will not be tolerated. These are tricky cars and turn 1 is tough period. Error on the side of caution and use runoff areas if available and necessary to avoid contact, but do not use it to gain positions.
- Please take the time to practice this start procedure at least once in a practice session.
Peir should be 1st and me 2nd?
Sorry, yeh I should be there. Was real busy as I was setting up new internet and everything
I'll join the B lounge as soon as this Indycar race is over. Only 12 laps left, so I'll be in before 2:30 Eastern.
