Welcome in@azidahaka yes I'm in if there's room and yes a Ferrari cheers
I made them the same day of the race but forgot to.post them... i was fuming last week lol. Today both will be postedWhere is the race standings after the first race?
bKarsten , ty for your support and for letting me race even that iam a newbie , I just tryid out the porche and could manage a 1.51 , so I think I`ll wait a week before I want to emberasse myself I`ll just be in the way for you guys and I really dont want to be the one to run people off and so far thats a big possibility , just trying to get out off the way easily could do it
No. And i.suggest avoiding chat while racing since the psn one creates lag and disconnections.Will there be a group chat set up like the practice night? I don't mind a bit of conversation during a race.
Live streaming:
Some lap well doneMy race 2 pole lap of 1:44.248 can be seen at 49:50 on my live stream, also great battle with @Friday_GTRP from start of race 2 at 1:02:04
I won race 2 in Barcelona. 5th behind you in race 1. That was a tense battle at the end i was running out of grip I you hadn't of made any1 mistakes you'd of passed me. I got slammed into 4 times in total both race had damage to the rear end.Some race review, points and my Gf's impression for the day.
Some really hard race here for my Audi, and worst of all i got all kinds of damages in first lap carnages as usual... What was the worst was being totally outgunned on the straights
Anyway, i can't say i'm happy about races and drivers this week too... In race 1 a driver forgot to start at all creating a huge mess of cars flipping around; not sure but i guess @hasslemoff ? Beside that i managed to recover a bit and end in 6th from the usual handicap start due to crashes...
Race 2 again i was sent out and had tto restart the race from last at turn one... i was pretty lucky that crashes everywhere allowed me to recover some positions and end up in 8th after a nice battle with @Garykavanagh ... sadly i made 1 mistake that allowed him to catch him and another one last lap while i was drafting him... But i had too much aero damage to be able to do any better....
Concerning Race 2, i'm not sure hwta happened in the front lines that made almost all the group stop, but again a few guys have been to optimistic in their T1 entries and braking.
@MarcoGT5 sorry i couldn't avoid you there
Standings after 2 races:
Girlfriend impression (basically first time she saw me online racing in a serie said after 2 consecutive T1 pileups with me restarting from last)
"Why are all driving so badly around? Do You even train for this?"
Well i told her usually everything is smooth and without contacts, but to be honest so far in this serie it was a lie
But in Race 2 she did enjoy the battle with sean so she had a better understanding of why i spent time on this lol

Hahaha I couldn't believe I gained a position. I assumed I was lapping some1"ajh1990"
Who the xuck were you fighting 2nd to last lap??? -since you thought you had the right to get in the way of drivers lapping you :-(
Got me down from a lucky 4th to a sad 6th!! (Being annoyed made me even change it to a 7th)
Stupedsean I'm sorry if I was any risc to you on the straight for the very last finish line -as you passed me! I more or less took it as my job was already done. That was too stupid of me.
Well, at least I'd pay you by "handing over" my 6th...
:-( !
Ha no worries bud. I told you I'd get payback for silverstone last lapWoah no clue what happened at the spreadsheet O_o i'll have to rework it tomorrow for it's all messed up for some reasons

Haha I had to protect my line a lot. Yes definitely we need to give people more space on the first lap. Race 1i got spun 1st chicane and race 2 @buybon355 came across and put me into a wall before we even go to the first chicaneHad good fun in both races, @Garykavanagh had a great time trying to get around you in race 2, until I binned it of course.
The starts were still a bit cluttered and at the front we were going pretty slow through the 1st turn on race 2, so I could see why there might have been some issues further back. I think we have to be even more respectful and mindful in T1 cause it's easy to get carried away looking for positions.

16:38-16:45 someone gave me a pit manoeuvre out of 3rd on the 1st lap
I wasn't trying to get in the way of anyone, nor did I think I had the right to get in the way of them. I don't remember any contact between us. I'm a controller user and not the fastest of people so I need to concentrate quite a bit to drive cleanly. When I have a fast person coming up behind me I need to plan to move over/let them pass me safely through their speed. I was also trying to keep my pace up at the same time to help improve my consistency.
You being annoyed and dropping a further place is nothing to do with me. Plus you at least scored some points.
Sorry if I got in the way of anyone, but I wasn't trying to intentionally.
