Sprint race pit window.

Everyone must pit in the window.
You can pit at the end of lap 6 til the end of lap 11.
That is the lap count including the formation lap

Do not enter the garage or settings menu between races. It's okay to enter the options menu to change tyre compound.
Remember that if you don't change it, your car will start the sprint race with the tyre's that you ended the feature race with

Are you allowed to enter the pitlane on the rolling up lap?

You can enter the pits at any time. BUT you MUST pit in the 5 lap window and you can only use medium tyre's once.
 
Hi people I prefer to prevent immediately tonight I just ride but I'm starting last as last week for avoided problems and more my connection is not great so I'll take away and if I see that it s 'not help I would leave the party ;)

sorry for my english.! :P
 
I swear the physics in this room were different from the lounges. I had setup my car with manageable, useable oversteer. But it was not the same car today, it was twitchy and I hit all the walls with snap oversteer that I would usually avoid without a problem.

Absolutely horrible race from me as a result. Absolutely the worst race of the season, even though I have had disappointments before.

Goodbye championship :(

But congrats to the winners!

Alex looks safe for the championship now ;)

And Dave bags a victory :cheers:

Well look what happened to me.
Check your replay for me and byggy just before the tunnel on lap 3 or 4 as that lead to my downfall and also I also offered to record me clearing my cache to try to solve the problem but was refused and in the race was put into the wall. If I had the authority I would of declared the sprint race void due to the stewards allowing the race to start knowing there was a problem and making no attempt to solve it.

I had the same problem in the feature race. Snap oversteer that I haven't had in any practice session. So much so that on the 5th lap I ended up with damage to all corners of the car and engine damage, race over. It felt a little better in the sprint, but still not right.

Well done to alex on winning the feature 👍

AND at last is won a race, woohoo

Nobody is allowed to leave the room between races. You should clear your cache before the feature race. I am sorry that you aren't happy but I am confident everything was handled correctly.

I agree, it was much better in the sprint!

I have not checked the replay, in fact I have shut off my PS3 with no intention of turning it on again today.

But I will say that, when drivers can not see each other, the host might decide to let them reconnect, but it takes a long time. In this case you were two who could not see each other, so that should not cause any problems for you, as you would not be able to collide. At worst it would cause problems for others who can see both of you. So I would also have went on with it. But I do not understand yet what actually happened in the race.

I was 1:49.512. Guess that solves the feature race.

I was seriously thinking of doing a victory drift in the last corner of the last lap. Glad I didn't.

We missed out on the race of a lifetime, hope we'll have it at the ring next week then.
 
"My trust in you is in equal proportion to your trust in me."

Never have believed in these words and tonight only strengthens my disbelief.

The problem occurred in the feature race so therefore it was only obvious in between the two races, both of us said there was a problem but the real thing that was really bad is that we were both refused to solve it and we both potentially collided in the sprint because we couldn't see each other. Clearing the cache could of solved the problem and the incident wouldn't of happened and I would still be in the championship hunt so I am thoroughly cheesed off to be honest.:mad:

I backed off during the last stint, seeing the psychosomatic 1min gap behind me. It cost me.

Battle shall be renewed at the final round!
 
Thanks guys, and congratulations to Dave for a great sprint race victory. He was smart and he didn't make mistakes. Well done! 👍

Also, big thank you to Josh for the feature race!! It was exhilarating. I didn't stop pushing for the whole 45 laps, and that is physically and mentally exhausting, at Monaco. I knew I was not faster than Josh in pure speed, but I had a tiny bit better tyre degradation, which allowed me to be faster on a general note.

During the first stint, he was great, and during the second stint, he was just as fast while I struggled to get past C-Falcon89. When I did it, I was 6 seconds behind, and had to work hard to catch him. Fortunately, I could do it, and got past him, stopping one lap earlier than I had planned. I was planning on him staying for one extra lap, which would give me 3 seconds... and he did!!

On the last stint, I was aware I had to push like hell if I wanted to win, so I did some 34s on a row, to ensure I had enough advantage. After I got to 6 seconds, he cut it down to around 3 seconds... and on the last lap, I tried to play it safe. It was a relief, finishing it, since I was pushing for 1h and 20 minutes, like I've never done before. Congratulations to Josh because he's doing a great second half, and he's super fast!

The sprint race was a tad crazier, but I guess I was lucky to manage to avoid bigger problems. I got heavy damage on the front left suspension, but I was able to drive it at a decent speed. All in all, a great race day for me!!

I don't want to think about the championship, to be honest. Next week I have a race at the ring; one I have to work hard for, because the ring is very demanding. After the race is over, we'll just see.

Sorry GV, too much laggy :

many damages on my car
Click to expand...

I'm sorry about the damage, but... "Many"? I only saw one damage on your car? Which I am extremely sorry about, since apparently there was some lag. But that's not "many" damage... For example, I got worse damage from that C-Falcon89/ByGGy moment at the beginning of the sprint race.

As I said right after the race, I'm sorry if the lag was a bit too strong. I'll make sure this doesn't happen for next race at the Ring 👍 .

By the way, Jash, you also looked laggy to me. But nobody else did!
 
Put me on the reversed list for now. Not sure if I'll have time to Q. Going couch shopping lol.
Unless I can Q in about 5 hours from now?
 
I'll be on about 745- 8pm pacific till whenever. Not going out tonight like I thought. I'll q whoever needs it. I'm sure force and heat will may be on for bit as well.
