SR4L Fun Race Leauge Rnd 12 Croft

[yerkeee]

Before all the recriminations start about illegal laps etc , can I remind everyone that we have all done something illegal or just plain stupid at some time and in some race this season , this league is a learning curve for when it gets serious , but, first and foremost it is for FUN , we don’t win an F1 drive or a million pounds , we just get to race with friends .

+1

I think we should take these arguments as experience for next season (F1!!!).

More important than cutting boxes/tracks lines, imo, it is drivers behaviour at the start of race or after having incidents...
We still have big incidents at the start and it will be more difficult with F1 cars.

Indeed, most accidents happen in T1, simply because this is the most tense part of the race. Maybe this is an area where we all should be practicing more in!


Qualifying:

Not really a great session, 12th place but had no expectations because I didn't practice at all this week.

Race 01

Not a bad start, slighty touched Bryan's car in the first chicane but didn't seem to affect him (if so, I'm sorry). However, I lost some speed and had some drivers gaining up on me but I defended by positioning and braking late at T4. Didn't last long however when I hit Bart from behind and span out, in turn before last. Sorry if I caused some damage to anyone. Went for an early pits and still had good tyres all race so managed to finish 7th.

Race 02

Good start but at T4 I braked way too late and thought I got away with it. After the race I realised that I hit Robert just by an inch which causes him to span out and forced him to retire, my sincere apologies. Rest of the rest didn't go well either and finished somewhere at the back, don't recall where ;p

Race 03

Saw Robert hitting some cones at the start, he locked up and swerved straight to me. I tried to avoid him and had to brake which caused all the other cars to pile up and collide as well. Went into the pits to repair and was 3rd for a while. Ofcourse it didn't last long when I saw Marcel gaining up on me. I defended him for a couple of laps but made a mistake and had to give up 3rd in 10th lap. Finished 4th.
