rFBMW: Silverstone

Congrats to race winners and season title winners.

I couldn't match my practise laptime of 1:25:0 in qualifying, but I expected to keep a good constant pace to finish close to 10 first places.

But it seems today was not my day and I was one of the many drivers who crashed with a spinning car that went wide on T1 and lost it crossing the track from side to side.

That meant a 179 secs. pitstop (2 laps down) so I could only make it to 15th place. Not so much fun for the last race of the season in a track that I'm getting to know quite well.

See you again next season.

Another to get caught up in the turn 1, lap 1 crash.

Pitted at the end opf the lap for a 65 sec stop. Rejoined a lap down. Benefitted from others retirign to finish 13th.

First of all, grats Jack for wining the race and championship. Really great perfomance.

Yes, it was me spining.

I heard someone on my right in T1 and tried to give him some roomm to avoid contact but I went too wide and hit that left curb. After that, I was just a passanger. Tried to keep it off the track but I had no control. Just managed to stop it in the middle of the track.
Sorry Jonty, Francisco and Simon.

It's OK with me, these things happen and once you touched the kerb you could do nothing to hold it. I tried to avoid you from the distance but at that time your car was not completely stopped and we finally met each other. BTW, nice to meet you ^_^

No probs - I thought I actually missed you until I watched the replay. I didn't even consider looking at the damage display, so I don't even know if I had damage.

Happy with the race, double shifting by accident into first is my nemesis at the moment.

Congrats Jack.

Well thanks Zeljko, but i think that Kieron is actually the champ :P

I was really quite shocked to be that quick tbh - maybe it's having a new gfx card that doesn't chug me down to single figure framerates :D...eitherway all i saw in front and behind was empty tarmac and as a racer that's good news most times.

Grats to Kieron on the title, and to Brian and Alan on their good finishes tonight.

Disco rate seemed very high tonight as well, so bad luck to those who did.

Damn... I remembered this race at 9:48 which was 3 minutes after the start! Sorry about that. Sucks too because everytime I race this track I'm above my usual form but something goes wrong, also wanted to get revenge on it from when I spun out of the lead last season. Oh well, grats to Kieron and Jack :-)

Im just very happy with the result here, ill take a 3rd anyday. MY Q was ok i had some traffic on my fast lap so i know i could have done a little bit better. In the race me and someone pumped and i spun off course. I then worked my way back from 11th to finish 3rd. Had a great battle with Alan, im not sure if on that last pass if i pushed him off track or if he went wide. If i pushed him sorry. but still great racing.

Had some good pace today which saw 5th on the grid.During the early stages had a couple of good battles & then in 3rd place with Nick following closely behind my compulsory computer freezes kicked in which sent me back to 8th.From then on claimed one spot & was given one spot by someone retiring,I think Barney,which saw me end the race in 6th.Am now waiting for my Obutto Ozone cockpit to be delivered so I then can order my Bells & whistles dedicated sim computer,hopefully that might solves a few problems.
It's been a great season & thanks to the organisers for putting on such a professional show.Congratulations to both Kieron & Jack for their respective championship results.
Cya all next season.

First of all, congratulations to Kieron for the drivers title and UK-NL Racing for the team title. Great stuff!

So, er, I finished 4th. My best Shark result ever. And to think I'd have settled for a point when I started the race! Didn't deserve such a high finish on pace, but I didn't make any (serious) mistakes, and my internet connection is more stable than some. Very happy to end my season on such a high note, especially since it means I improved on last season's finishing poistion.

I enjoyed our battle, Brian, although I knew you'd always get me in the end. You didn't touch me on the last pass - I was just too busy watching you in my mirror and I forgot to brake for T1! :D

Thanks to Sharks for running this series again.
