1992 LGPS French GP commentary

15:01:11: <Nuppiz> prequalifying is on
15:02:34: <dark77> cool
15:02:51: <dark77> we're probably going to DNQ again :/
15:03:40: <Nuppiz> well, to be honest your approach wasn't a good choice for this system
15:03:59: <dark77> maybe, but
15:04:52: <dark77> since we're garenteed a start in Le Mans, we'll obviously finish which means that we automatically qualify the next race, so on and so on
15:06:47: <Nuppiz> unless someone crashes into your car on the first lap :P
15:07:02: <dark77> oh we better not stall
15:08:28: <Nuppiz> ooh
15:08:45: <Nuppiz> both VIDAs looking at qualifying
15:08:48: <dark77> we'd probably be leading the championship right now if we just managed to get in at argentina
15:09:26: <Nuppiz> meh
15:10:11: <Nuppiz> I hate it when some of these drivers I know to be fast are in PQ, taking up spots from guys who haven't even started a single race
15:10:42: <dark77> i know that feel
15:11:32: <dark77> it really annoyed me when the ambrose-milan team in prost GP went 1-2 by over a second in their first race despite little to no upgrades
15:12:37: <Nuppiz> I might change the system next year
15:13:09: <Nuppiz> instead of the bottom 8 in the race, the bottom 8 in the main qualifying are in the PQ for the next race
15:13:21: <dark77> makes sense
15:28:58: <dark77> who's fastest so far?
16:20:08: <Nuppiz> I'm delaying it, something came up
16:20:17: <Backmarker> Is the Lexus to F1 news an April Fools?
16:20:31: <dark77> probably
16:20:36: <dark77> what happened?
16:21:15: <Nuppiz> nothing special really
16:21:29: <Nuppiz> dinner, feeding the dog, taking the dog for a walk...
16:21:42: <dark77> oh
16:21:46: <Backmarker> What sort of dog do you have?
16:22:03: <Nuppiz> mixed-breed, small
16:22:22: <Backmarker> How small are we talking?
16:22:27: <Nuppiz> jack Russel, small poodle and probably a third breed as well
16:22:43: <Backmarker> Cute
16:23:05: <Nuppiz> about 7kg
16:37:41: <Nuppiz> TBH I'm starting to get bored with LifeGP
16:38:03: <dark77> why is that
16:38:35: <Nuppiz> oh, I get bored quite quickly
16:38:45: <Nuppiz> always looking at something new
16:39:35: <Nuppiz> I may can it after 1993 and hop to 1998 to start MasterCard Lola GP Series
16:40:10: <dark77> cool
16:40:38: <Nuppiz> which I'll continue until 2001
16:40:58: <Nuppiz> that'd make it three seasons of both series
16:46:51: <Nuppiz> but personally I wouldn't mind if someone else took over
16:47:00: <Nuppiz> and I could move on to other projects
16:49:50: <Nuppiz> as a backstory, I could find some company that went bankrupt in 1993, with FSK being one of the major shareholders and therefore losing a lot of money
16:50:08: <dark77> makes sense
16:51:16: <klon> What, a race is going on?
16:51:26: <Nuppiz> no
16:51:43: <klon> good
16:51:48: <klon> wouldn't want to miss anything
16:58:33: <Backmarker> Second season of "The Iceman Waiteth" is over.
17:03:36: <klon> no Ralf championship ;_;
17:04:23: <Backmarker> Wasn't going to happen
17:04:29: <Backmarker> Especially not in 2002
17:04:44: <klon> let me have my delusions
17:04:50: <Backmarker> Never!
17:05:08: <klon> you sadistic man :P
17:06:02: <Backmarker> If you'd said a Nick Heidfeld championship though...that's a possibility.
17:06:36: <klon> Now that would be the most boring season ever
17:08:51: <Backmarker> His reputation in the "Iceman Waiteth" universe is a little different, as is Kimi's. Nick Heidfeld is still seen as "Quick Nick", a talented young German driver (and his dull corporate image suits Mercedes just fine). An extra year outside F1 has made Kimi a little more driven (but not much)
17:09:37: <klon> but can his reputation really beat the inherent boringess
17:11:15: <Backmarker> Race wins hide a multitude of sins
17:11:45: <Backmarker> And being at McLaren with Ronzo will develop his ruthless streak.
17:12:06: <Nuppiz> right, I hope that was the last holdup
17:18:19: <Nuppiz> main qualifying now on
17:18:50: <Nuppiz> wat
17:18:56: <Nuppiz> Kim Jong-Sung
17:18:58: <Nuppiz> 3rd
17:19:05: <dark77> :O
17:19:17: <Nuppiz> ahead of van Dycke in 4th
17:20:08: <Nuppiz> meanwhile Leonhard von Gottorp is being royally shit
17:20:27: <Nuppiz> 25th, and used up all but one of his allowed laps
17:30:33: <Nuppiz> oh hang on
17:30:43: <Nuppiz> damn DST
17:31:25: <dark77> woah what happened to johny greenwood
17:31:37: <Nuppiz> IDK
17:31:51: <dark77> how is he slower than nicchi :P
17:31:58: <Nuppiz> I never watch the qualifying sessions closely, I just use accelerated time
17:32:08: <Nuppiz> engine troubles, maybe
17:35:18: <captain_getz> i can pop in for the next hour, dont have as mich time today
17:36:16: <Nuppiz> hmm, you asked which game I use to run these races in the previous race chat, right?
17:37:29: <captain_getz> yeah
17:37:40: <Nuppiz> F1 Challenge 99-02
17:38:22: <captain_getz> alright, thanks
17:40:08: <captain_getz> wait, how come footage of the original games design (99-02 seasons) seem so much better in quality than the early 90s cars that we're using?
17:44:34: <Nuppiz> well, for starters the movie files are quite compressed
17:44:58: <Nuppiz> and most liveries here really arent that complex
17:45:35: <Nuppiz> all of the tracks I'm using are user-created and may contain errors or poor graphics
17:45:58: <captain_getz> true, then again being in this series at all is a few steps down anyway :P
17:47:11: <Nuppiz> the weather is perfect for racing: sunny, 20 degrees Celsius
17:47:15: <klon> oh no, you di-dn't
17:47:26: <klon> You <- The Line
17:47:54: <captain_getz> really? Am i that offensive?
17:48:30: <klon> yes who are you to - to doubt Life GP :P
17:50:16: <dark77> yeah, it's alot better than prost gp
17:50:29: <captain_getz> well yah got me there
17:52:42: <Nuppiz> bets on stallers?
17:54:58: <Nuppiz> two
17:55:09: <Nuppiz> Koumettou and Richardson
17:57:57: <captain_getz> any pileups on the straight?
17:58:25: <Nuppiz> Graham takes the lead
17:58:35: <Nuppiz> no, a completely clean start
17:59:20: <Nuppiz> and another holdup, be back in 15 mins or so...
17:59:29: <Rated> Did the race start a while ago ?
17:59:53: <Backmarker> Does anyone remember who Felipe Massa's personal sponsors were when he first entered F1?
17:59:55: <captain_getz> i need to leave to commute in a half hour. may pop back in for another 30 minutes when im at work
18:01:47: <Nuppiz> well looks like I can stick around for a bit longer
18:02:01: <LifeOfNamibia> I wonder whether the ChanServ message can be changed?
18:03:17: <Nuppiz> Gomes retires, brakes
18:03:30: <LifeOfNamibia> let's go Gottorp!
18:03:31: <Salamander> oh great
18:03:36: <Nuppiz> CRASH
18:03:42: <Salamander> i assume the al smiths are out as well then :/
18:04:01: <captain_getz> is the crash Gomes's fault?
18:04:19: <Salamander> how
18:04:41: <captain_getz> could be a small crash among backmarkers
18:04:58: <Salamander> no, she just wouldve pulled off to the side
18:05:12: <captain_getz> or someone just spun out trying to pass Sunset again
18:06:16: <Nuppiz> Modena's car fails on the main straight, Gaera and Alianopoulos hit him and lose their front wings
18:06:32: <dark77> salamander does anderson really still owe gauthier money for his car?
18:07:24: <Nuppiz> might be a penalty for Modena
18:07:34: <Nuppiz> he turned into Geara's path
18:07:39: <Nuppiz> Gaera's
18:08:37: <Salamander> dark77 as of 2001 yes
18:09:12: <Salamander> fmecha could easily clear it up by just saying its paid, but hes not done that yet
18:11:27: <Nuppiz> VDM has stopped on the side of the road
18:13:22: <Nuppiz> Graham still leads
18:13:49: <Nuppiz> and I'm off for about 15 mins
18:16:37: <Salamander> :/
18:22:33: <LifeOfNamibia> Well, dr-baker's persistance has put me in a tight spot
18:23:09: <dark77> about that NC F1 race?
18:23:15: <LifeOfNamibia> yep
18:23:17: <captain_getz> @Nuppiz if you want to replace one of the races in the UK to make way for a Canadian GP at Mont-Tomblant, I vote to get ride of castle combe
18:23:24: <LifeOfNamibia> I generally didn't want to the scaled tracks anymore
18:23:29: <captain_getz> *get rid of
18:23:32: <LifeOfNamibia> after last years Nordschleife mess
18:23:40: <LifeOfNamibia> but I can't say no to that lad :D
18:23:45: <dark77> what's a scaled track?
18:23:50: <LifeOfNamibia> *didn't want to run on
18:24:10: <Nuppiz> back
18:25:16: <LifeOfNamibia> GP2 only allows for a maximal track length of 7.something km
18:25:19: <Salamander> please tell me donnelly is still in the race
18:25:21: <LifeOfNamibia> so longer tracks are scaled down
18:26:02: <captain_getz> really? I thought all major racing simulators had to be able to run the mordschielfe
18:26:02: <LifeOfNamibia> and I tried to get lap times as close as possible to RL but that caused a boatload of technical problems
18:26:10: <captain_getz> *nordscheilfe
18:26:25: <Salamander> its gp2
18:26:29: <Nuppiz> Arthur's engine explodes, Baker retires
18:26:35: <Nuppiz> Arthurs'
18:26:36: <LifeOfNamibia> that game was released 199-something, even if it could no pc at the time would have been able to survive it :D
18:26:41: <Salamander> it only had to run f1 tracks
18:26:52: <captain_getz> then explain GP legends
18:26:56: <captain_getz> that had nordscheifle
18:27:06: <LifeOfNamibia> that was at the end of the century, GP2 was in the middle
18:27:13: <LifeOfNamibia> *decade
18:27:16: <Salamander> gp legends was made years later
18:27:16: <Salamander> and was set in the 60s
18:27:30: <Salamander> gp2 was made for 1994/95
18:27:38: <captain_getz> the Ring didnt change that much from the 60s
18:27:45: <captain_getz> still mostly forest with narrow roads
18:27:51: <Salamander> i.e. when the nordschleife was not on the f1 calender
18:27:55: <Salamander> gp2 = f1 game
18:28:15: <Salamander> and remember this is when memory was at a premium
18:28:25: <captain_getz> hmm
18:28:35: <captain_getz> that makes sense then
18:28:44: <Salamander> why would you waste memory coding a track that isnt even on the f1 calender you are trying to replicate
18:28:58: <Nuppiz> Graham in the wall, looks like a heavy impact!
18:29:03: <Salamander> besides, explain the codemasters f1 games
18:29:06: <Salamander> and grid
18:29:10: <captain_getz> for a 70s or 60s mod probably
18:29:13: <Salamander> those dont have the nordchleife
18:29:19: <LifeOfNamibia> Graham ded?
18:29:33: <Salamander> guess what? mods arent in the purview of the devs
18:30:03: <captain_getz> that is true, but what does modern race games have anything to do with this?
18:30:19: <captain_getz> most race games today dont have a problem with memory
18:30:20: <Salamander> "I thought all major racing simulators had to be able to run the mordschielfe"
18:30:23: <Salamander> ^ you
18:30:46: <Salamander> codemaster f1 games do not qualify as a major racing simulator, but gp2 does?
18:30:47: <captain_getz> well I didnt know just how old these simulators are
18:30:58: <Nuppiz> both Sandinistas out within one lap
18:31:04: <captain_getz> and why dark77 seems to be the only one who uses rfactor
18:31:14: <Salamander> pasta runs it as well
18:31:16: <Nuppiz> and Grahm is not coming out from the car on her own
18:31:18: <dark77> ^
18:31:28: <Nuppiz> Graham
18:31:50: <Salamander> yo, nuppiz, plz give me an update on donnelly
18:31:51: <LifeOfNamibia> rFactor is a lot more difficult to modify (for those of us who are not good with 'shop) and supposedly has a worse AI than GP2
18:32:05: <Nuppiz> Donnelly 8th
18:32:08: <Salamander> yay
18:32:24: <captain_getz> and worse as in less easy to modify
18:32:24: <captain_getz> ?
18:32:46: <Nuppiz> oh, he's out too now as well
18:32:49: <dark77> the bad AI is what makes it fun :P
18:32:51: <LifeOfNamibia> no just as in "slightly more retarded" from what I know ... but I am not an expert :D
18:33:08: <captain_getz> sounds more fitting considering which forum you are in
18:33:19: <LifeOfNamibia> I guess so :D
18:33:20: <captain_getz> *which universe you are in
18:33:56: <dark77> btw REECCS needs to replace it's east cars with midget cars
18:34:23: <dark77> the rolls in east cars are nowhere near as bad as with midgets...
18:34:28: <captain_getz> you mean like the kei cars of Japan (mazda az1, honda beat, suzuki alto works)?
18:34:42: <dark77> no these http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midget_car
18:34:50: <Nuppiz> Bad Luck Salamander
18:35:05: <Nuppiz> all three drivers put within the first six laps
18:35:07: <Nuppiz> out
18:35:12: <captain_getz> sounds too mainstream of a replacement for communist cars
18:35:32: <Nuppiz> Ramone retires
18:36:37: <Salamander> one of my guys is still running
18:36:37: <Salamander> he already said it was more difficult to modify...?
18:36:37: <Salamander> dammit :/
18:36:37: <Salamander> today is just not my day :/
18:36:37: <Salamander> ... midgets are mainstream... how exactly?
18:36:53: <Nuppiz> meanwhile van Dycke has overtaken Wilson for the lead
18:37:08: <captain_getz> well theyre fairly common for oval racing in the US in the more low-brow categories
18:37:29: <captain_getz> hell, NASCAR has long-wheelbase version as an official series
18:38:06: <Nuppiz> hang on, wasn't Braggia yours as well Salamander?
18:38:31: <Salamander> no
18:38:34: <Salamander> he was pasta's guy
18:38:56: <Salamander> he sacked him like 6 races in for kickert for god knows what reason
18:39:08: <Nuppiz> i meant this season
18:39:27: <Salamander> no
18:39:33: <Nuppiz> oh
18:39:40: <captain_getz> on?
18:39:49: <Salamander> i ran him a couple races last year when apostolos was unavailable
18:39:53: <Salamander> though
18:40:12: <Nuppiz> yeah I meant as in controlling him
18:40:23: <Salamander> yeah, i dont control him
18:40:23: <Nuppiz> not necessarily driving for you
18:40:31: <Salamander> i took control of bouiller
18:40:36: <Nuppiz> anyway, WIlson is in the wall!
18:40:43: <Salamander> shadaza's guy who never finished a single lap
18:40:47: <Nuppiz> in the same location as Graham
18:40:48: <Salamander> also YES :D
18:41:37: <Nuppiz> ooh that's a heavy shunt
18:41:51: <captain_getz> into Graham's car I assume?
18:42:02: <Nuppiz> nope, but not far from it
18:42:07: <Salamander> oooh, bad news for the defending champ
18:42:18: <Nuppiz> side first into the wall at like 190 km/h
18:42:24: <captain_getz> so is there another parking lot forming on one corner yet again?
18:42:28: <LifeOfNamibia> YEEEEES!
18:42:42: <Nuppiz> captain-getz, sure looks like it
18:43:10: <captain_getz> could you not afford people to wave yellow flags or towels?:/
18:43:39: <Salamander> no
18:43:45: <Salamander> its all gone on spare parts
18:43:50: <Nuppiz> there's constant yellows there
18:44:00: <Nuppiz> Gaera's engine fails
18:44:51: <Nuppiz> von Gottorp has been surprisingly shit for the whole weekend
18:44:57: <Nuppiz> currently 11th
18:45:08: <LifeOfNamibia> Well, he dominated pre-qualifying
18:45:09: <Nuppiz> out of 16 runners
18:45:12: <LifeOfNamibia> now the old man needs a nap
18:45:31: <Nuppiz> well he started napping on Saturday already
18:45:36: <Nuppiz> 25th in main qualifying
18:45:38: <LifeOfNamibia> a long nap
18:45:51: <captain_getz> time to retire?
18:45:59: <LifeOfNamibia> hehehe
18:46:03: <LifeOfNamibia> >von Gottorp
18:46:06: <LifeOfNamibia> >retiring
18:46:10: <LifeOfNamibia> good joke
18:46:36: <captain_getz> well I guess I'll allow Sunset to race into his 40s, since hes in the Rallycross series
18:46:48: <LifeOfNamibia> 40s
18:46:57: <LifeOfNamibia> ... von Gottorp raced in his 70s
18:47:33: <captain_getz> he should be the Rekect GP masters then
18:47:36: <captain_getz> *reject
18:47:43: <captain_getz> if there will ever be one
18:47:50: <LifeOfNamibia> nah, won't happen
18:47:53: <LifeOfNamibia> he's dead
18:48:03: <Nuppiz> yeah died in 2014
18:48:13: <Nuppiz> while still being in F1RWRS
18:48:22: <Salamander> yes
18:48:27: <LifeOfNamibia> died doing what he loved
18:48:29: <captain_getz> ....im not even gonna ask how he got in
18:48:36: <Salamander> damn good run for the guy though
18:48:46: <LifeOfNamibia> my team and no Reject License rules in place yet :DF
18:49:18: <Nuppiz> yep it was the last "wild year"
18:49:20: <captain_getz> he could be why the reject license was made, to give the more able drivers to race in the big time
18:49:29: <Nuppiz> after that things have become more and more regulated
18:49:30: <Salamander> no
18:49:44: <Salamander> they made it because benoit voeckler was on his way :D
18:49:50: <Salamander> not that it seems to have helped
18:51:18: <LifeOfNamibia> yeah, in the end if you really persist the Reject License is extremely easy to obtain
18:51:37: <Nuppiz> well it does take some luck as well
18:51:47: <captain_getz> guess im aiming for the RTCC and IFRC then
18:51:51: <LifeOfNamibia> no, three tests - all it takes
18:52:05: <Nuppiz> Braggia smoking
18:52:09: <LifeOfNamibia> one pre-season and then you just have to have a team test twice for that
18:52:09: <Salamander> one has to be an official test
18:52:14: <Salamander> yep
18:52:31: <Nuppiz> yeah there's that way
18:52:43: <Nuppiz> although it doesn't guarantee good stats though
18:53:11: <captain_getz> what testing or getting season podiums?
18:53:14: <LifeOfNamibia> well, you can have success or you can have Voeckler
18:53:20: <LifeOfNamibia> what is more important?
18:53:46: <Nuppiz> I could probably convince AndreaModa to give Nick Nurmester some time in the official tests so he's qualify for the license
18:54:00: <Nuppiz> he's already got two private ones
18:55:09: <LifeOfNamibia> Well, this season I will probably send Tropico to do some testing
18:55:18: <LifeOfNamibia> and I will of course consider good candidates
18:55:57: <Nuppiz> but I'll wait until after the Baltic Sea GP
18:56:26: <Nuppiz> who knows, maybe it'll have tons of attrition and Nurmester somehow sneaks a podium
18:57:31: <Nuppiz> von Gottorp has overtaken Bell for 10th
18:57:39: <LifeOfNamibia> OLD MEN POWER!
18:57:40: <LifeOfNamibia> OLD MEN POWER!
18:57:47: <LifeOfNamibia> OLD MEN POWER!
18:57:49: <Rated> Bathplug. :c
18:58:11: <Nuppiz> which'll turn 9th any minute now as soon as Braggia's engine blows up for good
18:58:18: <Salamander> Nuppiz do you really want to be the next damon cannon?
18:59:13: <captain_getz> well I need to head out for now. see ya guys, maybe soon, maybe next race
18:59:40: <Salamander> see ya getz
18:59:54: <Salamander> also why do you need 300 euros klon
18:59:55: <Nuppiz> well even if Nurmester qualifies for the license, I won't aggressively push him into F1RWRS
19:00:11: <Salamander> fair enough
19:00:15: <Nuppiz> I need him to get some good results first so that he gets good skills
19:00:22: <KlonNeeds300Euro> because a German discounter offers a 300 € journey to the Nürburgring F1 race
19:00:31: <Nuppiz> and Braggia's engine finally blows up
19:01:28: <Salamander> oh cool
19:01:56: <Nuppiz> 15 cars remaining, 16/40 laps completed
19:02:11: <KlonNeeds300Euro> all retirement race finally incoming?
19:02:37: <Rated> I don't think so
19:03:01: <KlonNeeds300Euro> why must you crush dreams? ;_;
19:03:24: <Rated> I'm sorry :_:
19:06:15: <Rated> Put a licence plate on a RTCC car = Kind of rejectful ?
19:06:38: <KlonNeeds300Euro> I'm okay with this
19:07:06: <Nuppiz> halfway through now
19:08:18: <Nuppiz> and Kickert is smoking!
19:08:48: <Salamander> noooo
19:08:51: <Rated> Bleh.
19:08:55: <KlonNeeds300Euro> yes!
19:09:02: <Nuppiz> and retires
19:09:07: <Rated> that was fast
19:09:15: <Salamander> whats the running order?
19:10:16: <Nuppiz> I'll wait until the situation normalizes
19:13:31: <Nuppiz> Van Dycke, Jong-Sung, Howard, Anker, Roberts, Jericho, Mazzacane, von Gottorp, Bell, Blog, Sunset, Stalic, Karimov, Alianopoulos
19:14:30: <KlonNeeds300Euro> only seven retirements and von Gottorp scores one of the best wins of his career
19:14:39: <Salamander> :D
19:15:19: <Salamander> so basically this is just gonna bring van dycke properly into contention
19:15:21: <Salamander> assuming he finishes
19:16:35: <Nuppiz> Alianopoulos overtakes Karimov
19:18:16: <Salamander> go apostolos :D
19:18:54: <Nuppiz> van Dycke has a gearbox problem!
19:19:02: <Nuppiz> he's stuck in 3rd gear!
19:19:07: <Salamander> oh dear
19:19:26: <Salamander> sooo, jong-sung might be the championship leader after this :o
19:19:43: <Nuppiz> and Karimov's engine fails
19:19:59: <Rated> (assuming he finishes) :P
19:20:12: <Salamander> yeah
19:20:35: <Salamander> you know, im actually hoping von gottorp wins
19:20:38: <Nuppiz> Blog is smoking!
19:20:54: <Salamander> just because itd be the most hilarious thing
19:20:57: <Rated> So they start dropping like flies just now ?
19:21:13: <Salamander> he puts in the most half-assed drive hes ever done and still wins
19:22:47: <Nuppiz> Kim Jong-Sung leads!
19:23:04: <Rated> My god...
19:23:32: <Nuppiz> von Gottorp harasses Mazzacane for 6th
19:23:57: <KlonNeeds300Euro> NORTH KOREA IS BEST KOREA?
19:24:14: <Rated> ^ yes
19:24:16: <Salamander> holy shit its happening :o
19:24:28: <KlonNeeds300Euro> ids habbening :DDDD
19:24:45: <KlonNeeds300Euro> you couldve stahped it :'DDDDD
19:25:24: <Nuppiz> and amidst all this Blog's engine falied
19:27:56: <Nuppiz> as it turns out, all cars have to stop for more fuel
19:35:15: <KlonNeeds300Euro> Well, then let's see who has the most ... pit wit
19:35:16: <KlonNeeds300Euro> :D
19:36:27: <Nuppiz> Bell out!
19:36:52: <KlonNeeds300Euro> Bell ain't well
19:37:20: <Nuppiz> brake failure, he was running 8th at the time
19:37:26: <Rated> boo.
19:38:05: <Nuppiz> and what is Jong-Sung doing?
19:38:30: <Nuppiz> he slows down on the main straight, then drives on the sand for a while before speeding off again
19:38:35: <Salamander> lol
19:38:45: <Nuppiz> he's nearly out of fuel, he's missed his pit stop!
19:38:50: <Rated> LOL !
19:38:52: <KlonNeeds300Euro> game over?
19:38:52: <Salamander> our race leader folks
19:39:31: <Salamander> :D
19:39:54: <Nuppiz> Howard, Anker and von Gottorp pit
19:40:02: <Nuppiz> Jong-Sung is still running on fumes
19:40:38: <Nuppiz> and he's out!
19:40:46: <Nuppiz> out of fuel from the race lead!
19:40:53: <KlonNeeds300Euro> Vintage Senna
19:40:55: <KlonNeeds300Euro> oh wait..
19:41:08: <Salamander> :D
19:41:08: <Salamander> crisis averted
19:42:35: <Nuppiz> Sunset pits, Roberts pits, Jericho pits, Mazzacane pits just in the nick of time
19:43:01: <Nuppiz> Howard leads
19:43:31: <Nuppiz> followed by Anker, Roberts, Jericho, von Gottorp and Mazzacane
19:43:47: <Nuppiz> then far back Sunset and Alianopoulos
19:43:55: <KlonNeeds300Euro> points?
19:44:25: <Nuppiz> yeah, if von Gottorp's car makes it to the finish
19:44:36: <Salamander> who can von gottorp realistically catch by the end of the race?
19:45:01: <Nuppiz> Jericho is 9 seconds ahead
19:45:15: <KlonNeeds300Euro> No chance then, I guess
19:45:56: <Salamander> we just need howard anker roberts and jericho to all blow up
19:46:02: <Nuppiz> except Jericho is now losing a lot of time trying to lap Alianopoulos
19:46:09: <Salamander> not outside the realms of possibility
19:46:43: <Nuppiz> Alianopoulos pits
19:48:30: <Nuppiz> there's a miniscule chance that von Gottorp catches Jericho
19:48:42: <Nuppiz> but overtaking is a completely another matter then
19:57:18: <Nuppiz> damn laundry days...
19:57:41: <Nuppiz> anyway, penultimate lap
19:58:52: <Nuppiz> and it's not over yet, some of the cars might not make it to the end with these fuel loads
19:59:07: <KlonNeeds300Euro> Top 4 retire pls
19:59:08: <Nuppiz> last lap
20:00:02: <Nuppiz> Howard and Anker are dangerously low on fuel
20:00:28: <Nuppiz> von Gottorp is only a second away from Jericho
20:00:35: <KlonNeeds300Euro> crush himn
20:01:35: <Nuppiz> nnope
20:01:48: <Salamander> :(
20:02:05: <Nuppiz> the top 5 have finished now, Howard-Anker-Roberts-Jericho-von Gottorp
20:02:17: <KlonNeeds300Euro> Well, two points are more than none
20:02:28: <Nuppiz> Mazzacane finishes 6th
20:04:14: <Nuppiz> Sunset 7th, Alianopoulos 8th
20:04:30: <Salamander> that should move anker and howard into championship contention
20:04:52: <Salamander> of course, theres still 15 races to go
20:05:10: <Nuppiz> Howard and Anker run out of fuel at the start of the Mistral straight on their cooldown lap
20:05:48: <KlonNeeds300Euro> DSQ pls
20:05:50: <KlonNeeds300Euro> :D
20:06:25: <Salamander> rotr: dave wilson

20:06:51: <Nuppiz> threw away a win by missing his pitstop
20:07:24: <Nuppiz> Roberts and Jericho ran out of fuel on the cooldown lap as well :P
20:07:58: <Salamander> oh yeah

20:10:29: <Nuppiz> Fastest lap: Gio van Dycke, 1:21.273 on lap 6
20:13:08: <Nuppiz> the medical status of Rachel Graham and Dave Wilson is still uncle
