Rnd 5 F1 Legends Jarama Race Reports
#5
Qually

I found it hard to find a gap to run clear in , I managed eventually to post a lap in the 29s and sat back feeling safe but then DJ upped his game and beat my time , followed by JP who was now getting a handle on these cars, I went out and tried again but traffic stopped me improving .

Race

Top 3 had identical starts , but on the change to 3rd I was gaining fast on JP , he saw me coming and closed the door , this left a big hole which a fast charging Tobias went for , I started braking hard but I had my brake pressure set low to stop lockups , it appears JP didnt so he was stopping faster than me and I ended up running into him and pushing him off (mega sorry JP ) , I slowed and pulled over to wait for him to rejoin but couldnt see him only a sea of Eagles , rejoined and chased after an Eagle and Ferrari , managed to outbrake the eagle into the first part of the 2nd hairpin and passed the Ferrari having an off on the 2nd part of the hairpin .

Started to chase down DJ and closed him , I knew I could lap faster if I could get passed but never got into a position to try a move , DJ pitted so I pushed hard as I was pitting a lap later , after the stops the position were still the same , tried to push DJ hard but then coming into 2nd hairpin I saw my teammate rejoining after an off , unfortunately he tagged DJ but it looked fairly gentle and Dj appeared to shrug it off , this allowed me to get close and get the draft on the main striaght and take the lead , I was then expecting DJ to come back at me so pushed hard to ensure a gap when we entered the striaght again , I held him back and then slowly eked out a gap .
Understeer - is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer - is when you hit the wall with the back of the car
Horsepower - is how fast you hit the wall
Torque - is how far you move the wall when you hit it
