8th GTP Formula 1 World Championship

Oh 🤬 I'm racing this weekend so I can't do the Turkish GP.
These are the weekends I CANNOT race just to give you a heads up if you hold them on that weekend.
April 14
April 28
May 12
June 2
And maybe June 9th? I'm not sure about that weekend.

It's every Sunday but well, don't worry - it's not like you have to be there every Sunday.

Yes. Those at Sunday's I listed.

Unless you loose your seat in your car ... just kidding. But seriously if you don't show up then team manager might have a weird idea of letting you go.

I've already received my warning

yo mr s, davy browndog didnt finish the above me he crashed out and didnt finish the race, therefore i dont think he shud of got ne points, he will clarify this.

Yeah, I know - I mixed you guys around but intentionally awarded points to everyone. Fixed now, tho.

Mclaren Press conference!

Today, Martin Whitmarsh declared a new driver for Mclaren international. He is American driver Kol Bailey. He was just promoted from test driver to the number 2 driver of the Mclaren F1 team.

Kol was quoted on saying "It's been a dream of mine to race in formula 1 since I was a small boy and now its finally happening. Especially for a great team like Mclaren. They are true legends in the F1 world and they have a great program along with a great staff and a great car. Our goal is to finish in the top 10 this season".




Haha. I've learned to do interviews from Furinkazen and the TOCA thread. You guys should do press conferences more often?

Why have I yet to be added in the listings? and I will be able to join the race.

Good god, I shouldn't have updated this when I was still dizzy from a few nights before. Sorry, fixed.

When is the switch to Bristish Summer Time (BST)?

It literally has just happened. It's now 2:54am right now.

Right, about 9.5 hours until the race - please notify me in advance if you can't make it (right, what am I thinking). I'll be there, too. Maybe even race, if you're kind enough to play with an old, grumpy & slow person.

Slow? You kicked my ass yesterday! I have to get back into the F1 "groove" though.

So what time BST is the race? Still 2030?

I think Mr. S's Version of slow is being 0.1 seconds of pace.

It's 2030 in the UK, yeah.

London 8:30pm
Paris 9:30pm
Sydney 6:30am
Vancouver 12:30pm (as in noon +30 minutes, that's 12:30pm, uh?)
Phoenix 12:30pm (as in noon +30 minutes, that's 12:30pm, uh?)

I think 2:30 for EST (Eastern standard time) correct? 1:13 pm currently

9:30pm in Paris would be 3:30pm in New York, that's EST (EDT?), isn't it?

Probably best to check out http://timeanddate.com/time/map/.

The race is at 12:30 Pacific Daylight time; we 'sprang forward' 1-2 weeks ago.

If back East you have 'sprung forward', the race would be at 3:30 Eastern (3 hours difference between Montreal and Vancouver).

I'll post a reminder 15 minutes prior to the race, just before opening the lobby - I guess that's easiest.

The race is going to start in 105 minutes from now!

Alright, lobby coming up now!

Awesome, hopefully it'll be a good turnout

5 so far, come on people - let's make it happen!

Q1 has started.

Have a good race guys.

Meh, thumb hurts too much - good timing, slit it open an hour ago. Spun near the last corner without pressure because I can't hold my wheel properly - probably best I retired, no reason to endanger the others.

Good luck to the remaining drivers. Baumi in front of PAWEL and Jack atm.

Fun race, pushed the car as hard as I could, only managed 5th. Even without my spinout, pretty sure I would've stayed in 5th.

Thanks to everyone who got out the way, when being lapped.

I had a clean race, and got lucky with Baumi spinning, he lost about 10 seconds to me, and the way he was going at the end, who knows, the result may have been different.
I also have to practice my starts, because i'm driving like Mark Webber at the moment. Got passed by 3 cars before the first corner.
