FostersGoodPasta: The Plus One empire has arrived
FostersGoodPasta: Hello to all
Commentator: hi
Commentator: I don't know why van der Maeyede is performing so poorly compared to Braggia, I've checked that all of his stats should be as what you've upgraded them to
Commentator: perhaps his name is too long and the game glitches because of it
FostersGoodPasta: I don't think I gave him qualifying performance...
FostersGoodPasta: Yeah that could be a problem as ISI have known for unexplained glitches
FostersGoodPasta: He's a weed addict, tat might be affecting his performances
Commentator: although his name isn't the longest in the series, but it's the only surname that doesn't fit into the TV overlays
FostersGoodPasta: van der Maeyede doesn't appear in rFactor either
Guest94 has entered the room.
Guest94 has become Darkapprentice77.
FostersGoodPasta: If there is a glitch, maybe changing it to Jan v.d. Maeyede might work
Darkapprentice77: Has the race started yet???????
Commentator: nope
Darkapprentice77: phew
Commentator: I'll change the name for the next race to see if there's any difference
FostersGoodPasta: I'm not pinning his bad performance on that, but it'll be interesting to see if the game engine treats him any differently
FostersGoodPasta: Besides, he's not as good as his son Martin is/will be anyway
Commentator: race will start at 21:00 local time no matter how many members are online
Commentator: in other words, 16 minutes to the start
FostersGoodPasta: We'll be talking about a brilliant Braggia win from 7th to 1st in an hour and a hlafs time

Commentator: Boullier and Davies stall!
Commentator: unbeliavably bad luck for the Welshman!
Salamander: oh you are kidding
FostersGoodPasta: gCome on, we all saw that coming
FostersGoodPasta: [IC-LukeKnight] Well, comisserations for James, but that'll only help Braggia's mighty charge to win
Salamander: true
Salamander: at least he's not out
Commentator: and Fernandez's engine expires in the first Lesmo!
Commentator: both L.O.T.U.S. cars out on the first lap!
FostersGoodPasta: Predicted it :O
Commentator: Jericho crashed with Wilson and lost his front wing
Commentator: no wait, with Generic
Commentator: damn white cars
Salamander: davies is still going, right? how far behind is he?
Commentator: Davies is out
Commentator: he stalled
Commentator: meanwhile, Mantis spins in the first chican and gets hit by Anker
FostersGoodPasta: Where's Braggia O mighty overlord
Commentator: Mantis loses his rear wing and Anker his front
Commentator: Jericho has pitted for a new front wing
Commentator: Braggia is 6th
Commentator: no wait, 5th!
Commentator: von Gottorp has a gearbox problem and he is dropping like a rock!
Commentator: currently holding up Balzary in 6th but he must retire at the end of this lap!
tristan1117: how are the rockets doing?
Commentator: Bogan out, he pulls over in Curva Grande
Commentator: oh, a collision!
Commentator: Barron spins in Ascari and Jong-Sung hits him
Commentator: the Korean loses his front wing while Barron continues with no visible damage
Commentator: and van der Maeyede pulls over at the same spot!
FostersGoodPasta: Damn.
FostersGoodPasta: If you smell weed it is pot
Commentator: Ramone 10th, Bell 19th
tristan1117: Bell's made up a bunch op spots then.
Guest98 has entered the room.
Commentator: Bell overtakes Murphy on the main straight
Commentator: von Gottorp still hangs on the track despite a broken gearbox!
Guest98 has become Dr Currywurst.
Dr Currywurst: The Doctor is in da house
Commentator: Tenpecost's car smokes like a Chinese factory but is still soldiering on!
tristan1117: Darn, I have a class now.
tristan1117 has left the room.
Dr Currywurst: how many retirements did i miss?
Commentator: and Balzary's engine lives up to the team name, he retires in Parabolica
Commentator: 23 cars still running
Commentator: von Gottorp refuses to retire despite his gearbox being stuck in second
Dr Currywurst: "I love this business, I will never retire!" WHOOO!
Guest99 has entered the room.
Guest99 has become East Londoner.
Guest100 has entered the room.
Commentator: Bell has overtaken Gunselman and now rises to 12th as Tenpecost's engine finally expires
Guest100 has left the room.
East Londoner has become West Londoner.
Dr Currywurst: why not Northeast Londoner?
Commentator: van Dycke now laps von Gottorp, who is still hanging on
FostersGoodPasta: Southeast Londoner?
West Londoner has become Central Londoner.
Central Londoner: :P
Commentator: Lap 6 and the Top 10 is: van Dycke, Wilson, Arthurs, Kickert, Braggia, di Longo, Generic, Yazaki, Ramone, Yoshino
FostersGoodPasta: Just cause :P
Dr Currywurst: OH SNAP!
Salamander has left the room.
Commentator: Oh! Oh! Oh!
Commentator: von Gottorp refuses to give way to Generic and gets rear-ended by him at Variante della Roggia!
Commentator: Generic stops there, while von Gottorp continues without a rear wing!
Central Londoner: I guess Davies is out already?
Commentator: That will surely lead to a penalty to the German, he was about to be lapped
Dr Currywurst: Rear wings, gearboxes, nobody needs that shit
Commentator: yes, Davies stalled
Commentator: un-be-lievable!
FostersGoodPasta: Come on you Braggia!
Commentator: von Gottorp drives past the pit entry!
Commentator: he is still continuing as the stewards are investigating the collision!
Commentator: Generic's retirement promotes Balivernes into the top 10
Dr Currywurst: I want all of these scenes in replays, I am getting an idea
Darkapprentice77: wtf is gottorp doing????
Commentator: meanwhile, Anker, pulls over into the pits with a gearbox problem
Dr Currywurst: showing his passion, dammit :D
Commentator: "and what is von Gottorp doing?"
FostersGoodPasta: Being a prat
Commentator: he is literally swerwing around the track like Deletraz
Commentator: Chapman has a gearbox problem, van Dycke slightly nudges him as he tries to lap him
Commentator: no damage
Commentator: and oh!
Commentator: Murphy's brakes fail into Variante della Roggia and he rear-ends Gunselman!
Commentator: Gunselman continues without a rear wing!
Commentator: Chapman hits von Gottorp and loses his front wing
Dr Currywurst: Chapman's fault XD
Commentator: and Murphy's wreckage claims three more front wings, as Barron, Smith and Jong-Sung all fail to avoid it in time
Dr Currywurst: this is a giant mess - this is the best series ever!
Commentator: or actually Smith hits Graham while she narrowly avoids Murphy and any damage to her car
Commentator: and Gunselman pulls into the pits to retire
Commentator: as does Arthurs, his gearbox is a mess!
Commentator: Arthurs retires from 3rd!
FostersGoodPasta: yESSSS
Commentator: Chapman's gearbox troubles seem to have cleared and he continues
Central Londoner: Feck.
Commentator: Balivernes ovetakes Ramone and Yoshino in the von Gottorp train
Commentator: OH MY GOODNESS!
Commentator: HUGE ACCIDENT!
Commentator: Barron stops on the main straight and is rear-ended by Chapman!
Commentator: Barron somersaults in the air and lands on it's roof!
Commentator: or upside-down, as these cars obviously don't have roofs...
Commentator: Jong-Sung brakes in time to avoid a bigger collision, but loses his front wing in Chapman's wreckage
Commentator: OAAARGH!
Commentator: Bell hits Barron as well!
Commentator: he flies in the air, but the car lands on its wheels and he carries on without both wings!
FostersGoodPasta: OOh. Are they okay?
Commentator: Barron and Chapman are assisted out from their cars, both are not OK
Commentator: Barron's car landed back on its wheel as Bell hit it
Commentator: the RIC car took the brunt of the impact, it's missing both wings, the right rear tyre and even the airbox is smashed up
Commentator: Chapman looks like he hurt his legs, while Barron is still unconscious
Dr Currywurst: Difficult situation for me, we're gonna need aid here
Commentator: Bell continues after a not-so-small miracle, but is likely to pit and retire on this lap
Commentator: at the same time the race reaches it's halfway point and it's time for a commercial break
Commentator: we'll be right back after these messages
Commentator: and we're back
Commentator: Barron has been put on a stretcher, he is unconscious
Commentator: Chapman is limping away from the wreckage with the assistance of track personnel
Guest101 has entered the room.
Guest101 has become tristan1117.
tristan1117: Was that one Bell's fault?
tristan1117: what just happened
Commentator: no, Bell drove into Barron's wreck
Commentator: an unfortunate race incident, but despite flying in the air he somehow managed to drag the car into the pits
Commentator: unsurprisingly he had to retire, though
Commentator: and that's Braggia's car beached at Ascari!
*connection lost*
---------------------------
Guest103 has entered the room.
Guest103 has become Commentator.
Darkapprentice77: .....what happened
Commentator: and we're back, after our satellite connection was lost for quite some time
Darkapprentice77: ah
Commentator: ZippyChat failed, that's what happened
Darkapprentice77: hmmmmm
Commentator: luckily I've been logging this on Notepad, so nothing was lost
Commentator: here's what happened during the blackout:
Commentator: Braggia's retirement was caused by faulty brakes, he spins but the gravel slows his car sufficiently and only slightly nudges the barrier
Commentator: di Longo retires on lap 16 with mechanical woes
Commentator: van Dycke suffers a gearbox failure on lap 21, pulls into the pits and retires from the lead
Commentator: Kickert retires on the same lap, he pulls over on the Rettifilo straight
Guest104 has entered the room.
Guest104 has become Klon_Rules.
Commentator: and we're back on live broadcast
Commentator: Ramone is having gearbox problems, he is stuck in 4th gear
Guest105 has entered the room.
Darkapprentice77: bad luck for him.....
Guest105 has become Pasta.
Guest106 has entered the room.
Pasta: Back. Whta caused the comms glitch?
Guest106 has become Herbalife.
Herbalife: Hey
Herbalife: How are things going?
Commentator: Jerico 8th, which will soon turn to 5th as he overtakes the retired cars of Ramone, Kickert and van Dycke
Commentator: and Graham's engine explodes at Curva Grande!
Herbalife: Is di Longo still going?
Commentator: di Longo retired on lap 16, reason is still unknown
Commentator: Dave Wilson leads with four laps remaining
Herbalife: And... who's leading right now?
Herbalife: Yeah, you pretty much read mu mind lol
Darkapprentice77: were there any injuries in this race?
Klon_Rules has left the room.
Commentator: meanwhile, we have received reports that Barron, Chapman and Bell are in the hospital at the moment
Herbalife: Let me guess... brakes failures?
Commentator: Barron is still unconscious, while Chapman is in agony with broken legs
Herbalife: Damn
Commentator: no, Barron's car unexplainably stopped on the main straight and both Chapman and Bell hit it
Commentator: Barron landed upside down from the collision with Chapman and was flipped over moments later as Bell hit him as well
Herbalife: Then Barron might suffer a back injury
Herbalife: That must have been the nastiest accident so far in this series
Commentator: Bell flew in the air but the car miraculously landed on its wheels and he managed to limp through the full lap to retire in the pits
Commentator: and Yoshino has spun at Ascari!
Commentator: she stops in the middle of the chicane, moments later Wilson hits her car and loses his front wing!
Guest107 has entered the room.
Guest107 has become Klon.
Commentator: however, his lead was far more than enough to stay ahead of Yazaki
Klon: So, since I've missed the entire second half by the looks of it, when did the insane old man finally give up?
Commentator: he rejoins the track still leading
Commentator: no, von Gottorp is still hanging on
Klon: With no rear wing and still stuck in 2nd gear ... oh boy
Commentator: and Jericho has hit Yoshino's car as well, he has to replace his front wing and drops down to 5th from 3rd
Herbalife: Now that is a drop I approve of!
Pasta: Gears? Who needs gears in life gp
Pasta has left the room.
Herbalife: Pasta? Who needs pasta in Life GP?
Herbalife: lol
Commentator: only seven cars still running
Commentator: Kim Jong-Sung is on his way to become the first North Korean to score points in a Western racing series
Commentator: he will be 6th when he goes past the main straight
Commentator: and von Gottorp still hasn't passed four retired cars, he will run out of time as Wilson is already on the penultimate lap
Commentator: and the Italian crowd sighs loudly as Balivernes retires his Rifiutare car!
Commentator: from 3rd!
Commentator: and Wilson comes through the Parabolica for the last time today, he wins the Italian Grand Prix!
Commentator: Yazaki finishes second, half a minute behind
Commentator: Smith and Jericho follow in 3rd and 4th
Commentator: Balivernes is classified 5th as he was a lap ahead of Jong-Sung, who is 6th
Herbalife: Not bad then
Klon: HEY! Cars that actually make the finish should be rewarded by earning positions anyhow :-/
Klon: and i AM indeed just saying that because I want that last point
Klon: :D
Commentator: von Gottorp is finally classified in 8th, he failed to overtake the retired Yoshino in time
Commentator: six laps down on the leader
Klon: do we get money for that? :D
Commentator: depends on whether or not you get penalized for that collision with Generic
Commentator: which is very likely, given that he was being shown blue flags during that time
Commentator: and he caused a fair few dangerous situations throughout the race in general
Klon: Is the phrase "Generic could've been more careful." going to hurt or help my chances
Commentator: not much
Herbalife: You're going to earn a Generic penalty
Klon: Well, it was most certainly not a Generic accident. Or was it?
Commentator: in any other racing series, no
Herbalife: The Generic Times will write about this
Commentator: but here, very common
Commentator: and we have reports from the hospital indicating that Barron's condition is stable, but still critical
Commentator: Chapman has been x-rayed, which confirms a broken left tibia
Darkapprentice77: ouch
Commentator: Bell can be grateful that his car was completely reconstructed after Howard's accident, and it looks like he is only a bit shaken but will recover in time for the next GP
Darkapprentice77: rotr?
Commentator: maybe L.O.T.U.S., both cars out within the first lap
Commentator: or von Gottorp, if the replays confirm him being guilty for taking out Generic
Commentator: oh wait, he was not
Commentator: Generic's brakes failed
Herbalife: Damn it!
Herbalife: No matter, send him to the gallows!
Commentator: so he is more worthy of an IIDOTR considering that he soldiered on with only a second gear and no rear wing for most of the race
Commentator: however, we don't give out those so he gets no official recognition for that
Klon: not guilt
Klon: *guilty
Klon: gib moneis plox
Klon: huehuehuehuehue
Guest108 has entered the room.
Commentator: yes, you shall get your 250 CHF
Guest108 has left the room.
Commentator: which is probably enough to pay for the hotel in Italy :P
Klon: well, i for my part am off to bed now - good night everyone
Klon has left the room.
Commentator: yes, I think that's it for today
Commentator: good night everybody, remember to tune in next week for more LGPS
