Trendell in shock move.
Ferrari driver Simon Trendell announced earlier this week that he will not be racing in F1 next season, instead he has taken a seat with a team in the American NASCAR series. Officials had this to say: "Simon has taken the decision to mvoe to NASCAR next season, money wasn't the issue he merely stated that with the bad luck he has had recently in F1 he feels the need for a new scene and hopes to come back to F1 in the future with better luck and a NASCAR championship uinder his belt"
Trendell had nothing to say on this matter and it is still in doubt if he will race with Ferrari this weekend at Interlagos.

Ohhh boy...14 seconds off pace in quali. Looks like Blake might run away with this one.
Not. Stupid me, forgetting to put rain tires on. And by me, I mean my pit crew.
This one will go down in the history books if I lose.
Anyways, I've got the target on Blake now, and the sliders all cranked to 11. And by 11, I mean ridiculously close to 100. Let's rock Interlagos.

This is a private game right? How can I join it (Season 4) in batracer itself. Or will those details be announced when season 3 ends.

Update time...
Champcar Series
I can't believe I've chosen to join such a crappy little team. One team member hasn't logged in since first practice (didn't even drive a lap) and the other is trying to feed me false settings. Despite this, I managed a decent start to the season with a 2nd place. I was looking good for a top 10 finish in the second round, but a driver error saw me crash out with a handfull of laps to go.
GTP F1'06 Series
Not my best season by a long shot, but for a Super Aguri 9th is not too bad. A good finish in the last race could see me finish as high as 6th, equalling my best SA finish.
GTP V8 Series
Decent points from the last 2 races has seen me take the lead again. Still bugger-all in it at this stage and only 3 more races until the endurance rounds. If I can hold my lead until then I'll be looking great for a series win.
V8 Guinea Pig Series
Sandown has been run and won. Started from 21st and worked my way up to P12 by lap 20. Both Toll HSV entrants were out by lap 18, marking the end to a very unproductive weekend for both of them. Lap 20 also saw the first round of pit stops begin. I stretched my first stop out to lap 35, dropping from P3 to P18, and began working my way forward slowly. The next 35 laps saw me cruising by myself more often than not, only overtaking once before a lap 69 incident saw the safety car come out and over a third of the field dive for the pits.
My pit crew made a mistake costing me 10 seconds, a figure that would later haunt me. Heading back to the track in P16 I watched as for the second time in 6 laps a Supercheap Auto car crashed out of the race. By lap 80 I was already up to P6 and creating a handy gap to the car behind. Lap 99 saw me take to the front position without making a single pass, thanks to the ever changing pit strategies taken by the field. In 6 laps I made a 4 second lead in to a 17 second lead before pitting once again, returning to the field in P17.
Putting on a late race burst of speed I shot to P2 by lap 130 and was closing in on P1, only 2.5 seconds ahead. I hit the lead again on lap 135 and tried creating a large gap to P2, knowing that I was the only person in the top 10 with a pit stop left. Unfortunately my car didn't have good speed on a 3-stop plan, so I boosted the tyre abuse and went with the 4-stopper. Even wearing my tyres down to the canvas didn't help me when, on lap 140, I pitted back to P10. With the top 11 cars representing 11 different race teams, the race for endurance glory was on for young and old.
I forced in to 9th, but was not closing in on the front runners before out of the blue P2 makes a driver error and crashes out, scrambling the safety car. The field closed up and prepared for a last sprint to the line. The race resumed on lap 157 of 161 and it was hell to see. Three places lost on one lap and my race was done. I overtook one last car on the final lap for a P10 finish, with Jules Hatton, the games' lead developer, taking the first V8 endurance win. I finished 9.958 seconds behind... about the same amount my pit crew cost me way back on lap 70. I (along with 29 other drivers) have vowed not to let Jules win Bathurst.

@somebody
That report makes me want the GTP enduros to hurry up and arrive
Are you sure you don't want to race the SA again, to fill up the grid, in F1 Season 4?
edit: Ash, make sure you do start it as soon as it's finished, I go back to school in two days (:|) so get it up ASAP so you won't have to wait a week until I can join

My public V8 teammate absolutely sucks. Never runs practice, anything.
It's only because of me that Fujitsu Racing is 9th in the series (1786pts)
