The physics got changed in tonight's update, I will be working HARD to set a new BoP for each car. I am quite frustrated about this change, but hopefully it is for the best. Stay tuned.

Well that 1st race didn't go quite to plan

1st lap had a big accident ahead of me and I had nowhere to go(didn't react fast enough). Ended up 20 secs off the lead by the time I had recovered, so that was pretty much the end of it. Managed to catch up to a couple of people and had a good race with them, but I was always out of sync with them so ended up not making much progress (unsurprising considering the high quality of drivers).

Thought I might catch AMS_Redline towards the end, but came out just behind DodgeLamb on my last stint, and there was no way I was going to try and un-lap myself and potentially hit him ala Ocon. I had much better tyres than him so just sat behind him for the last 8 laps or so. Was fun pretending that I was anywhere near as fast as him

Thanks for race everyone, and for organising it.

I was trying my hardest not to get unlapped on my really worn tires

At least lapped cars were ghosted, so you had no way of interfering with me there. Was a really fun race!
