Slap me in the face. Get it over with. Stupid jump start. Makes a change from starting on fuel mix 6

@Storm_SP17 when I ran wide and you tucked my inside, did we touch? I got quite the shunt and front aero damage. Totally wrecked my car. But you didn’t move off line so I assumed it was lag? Again, sorry to you and t5 for jumping.

I heard a thud like you'd ran into the back of the car, but weirdly enough it appeared as though you were alongside me so it left me very confused.

I can only assume lag on my part as we got close but if you're not sure we touched and I'm not sure we touched... I really don't know what to say!

It makes it even weirder because there was a move I bailed hard out of where we DID touch prior to that but no damage.

As for the start, I was very confused as to which part of the track was being considered by the leader as the start/finish line. After already getting a penalty for being caught out in that way before, I ended up being very tentative and lost a lot of places.

As I already said in chat after the race, apologies for the start but I was very confused, was waiting for the message to come up, I crossed the line and started the next lap, still no message so decided I should go, then finally the message appeared and I didn't really know what to do so backed out of it to remove any advantage I gained. I guess there was lag in the chat and maybe the chat message was delayed in being displayed?

Thanks for the race all, just watched parts of the stream and looked like there was some great battles through the field

This week's livestream is up! -

Even the great Jack Wilkinson was "big up'd" in this one

I had nothing until t3. No bumps or even noises. So must have been down to lag again. Oh well! It happens I guess. It was fun while it all lasted anyway. Halbstark done an absolutely stonker of a dive bomb on me! Made it work though. I had no clue he was coming. I was rather I,pressed

Just ignore the timing line and go by the message. Green is usually given once the field is formed up properly on the straight.

message was sent soon as the last car joined position but for the message to show it felt like 5 seconds to show up. Bad timing lol
Well done on your mega pace and win.

 

[fastnloud30]

Well done top 3 great performance. At the start watching halbstark I said in stream whatcha out for halb later doin the schumacher move. But not expecting him later to actually pull one very good move in the schumacher s's's

What I could see in the race and did see it a lot was lag coming from MaarteN5HuizeN and samdigby closer they got the got the worse it became as was on dash veiw of Sam when he was to the right of marten then the lag twitch from both then damage it looked a good even battle too.
And a bit coming from stormpacer time to time.

 

[Storm_SP17]

@fastnloud30 I had a feeling there was...

I saw a couple twitches from a few guys on my screen now and then, figured it was because my router hadn't been reset. I even had a few moments where the lobby jittered a bit (like when lots of people load to track at once, if you've ever noticed it) so will be resetting my internet fully next week before joining.

@MaarteN5H wanna join my sister team WarpSpeed? Since all you do is warp!

Even in the standing you were at one point showing 12th before appearing 6th again.

WarpSpeed and WarpPosition! You've got it all!

It mite of been the lobby as before the race started everyone seamed good then soon as race was started the twitching started as I do remember seeing t5black lagg and he never lags lol. And when I closed lobby it took ages to close too lol out of all nights

 

[D-Max]

When I joined, the lobby connection was 2 bars!

 

[D-Max]

Catalunya track route is: turn 10-11 and 12-13 ignore 15 as we are using standard chicane
View attachment 800770

So 10/11 is the chicane rather than the right. At 12, is that the wider turn or regular line?

Yes that's correct.
then rather than the hairpin after it just head through the arrow boards and use the long left sweeper

The birth of T5blagg!

So, to be clear. Leader keeps within the speed limit until GREEN comment.

The start finish line doesn't mean go, it just means no overtaking until passed. Only the GREEN comment means go.

Hope that helps

 

[fastnloud30]

Penalties/warning

Jump start but didnt cross the line before go signal by .100th of a sec.

ErtStevie

[D-Max]

The start line is right after the corner though haha

 

[fastnloud30]

No that's the finish line. start line is at the other end as was stated before the race

 

[D-Max]

I’m an ignorant bugger though! Wasn’t paying attention really to chat

 

[fastnloud30]

The next 2 races coming up have the same start line and a finish line.

the race will start by using the race start line so no overtaking until crossed there.
I'll upload a few pics once I find a spare hour. And also a vid of track route for catalunya so we don't end up with any crossed issues.

 

[GTWelsh]

But still waiting for the GREEN chat to "go" ?

 

[D-Max]

Gonna need to just stop playing with you lot and get pole done and dealt with

 

[Storm_SP17]

Some great fights for position in the early stages, but ultimately the pace wasn't there in the race. The Ferrari takes a little while to warm to its tyres but feels nice once it gets going.

The frustrating aspect for me was the post-race workings that I do... on the RHs coming into the last few laps of the race I was running 57.7-57.9 with low fuel. I decide to open my own lobby and test, opting to go 0.5 less rear camber.... 57.6s as early as lap 4, near-full tank...

 

[GTWelsh]

Results will be late to update, I'm away at the moment and forgot to update them when I had time.

Sorry guys will sort it tomorrow.

 

[GTWelsh]

Standings updated. Loads of position changes.

 

[fastnloud30]

Catalunya R6 extra corners included for next round and start line explained:

Turn .10

Exit turn .11

Turn .12 entry (missing out hairpin)

Exiting turn .13

Rolling start line no overtaking until crossed this line

 

[D-Max]

is the track edge off for this one or on real?

 

[fastnloud30]

It's off so it stops the unwanted marbles building up.

 

[D-Max]

well right after I asked this, I was asked to go do some turbine work tomorrow so my slot will be open for someone to take.

 

[GTWelsh]

It's race day!!

Little reminder about the track layout just above.

See it here.

Stig will be driving this round .

As usual, I will comment "GREEN!!" for the drivers to start, but even then there is no overtaking before the line.

Even if you cross the line before the message appears, you cannot "go", so wait for the comment.

See you guys later.
