rFBMW: Albi

Had a good race, I was lucky I did not suffer any warp that others appeared to, let Nick past early on as he was faster, and then held of Dave Robinson for a couple of laps that was great fun, and nice and clean, only other points of note were a M cox reversing across the track and just managing to miss him!!, and then got held up for 2 laps trying to lap someone cannot remember what their name was though, but it was some poor driving for a lapped car for sure, how hard is it to blend out of the throttle down a straight and let someone past?

Ok there obviously was an issue during qual in terms of warp, however the admin with us could see no problem on the server.
Therefore we decided to go with the race and see what transpired with a view to red flagging if the situation was unraceable.

Although we could see cars flashing off and on, in some cases as per John we had to concede there were no issues, so let the race run to its conclusion. Unfortunately for me I was robbed of second when my car suddenly started shooting left under braking, causing me damage and ending my chances.

BEFORE therefore we start complaining and PM'ing about other drivers, we need to consider if they were suffering with lag or not.

Certain people said post race they saw no cars for several laps, if that is the case then they could hardly be expected to know who was around them. My own replay shows lag and warp all over the place. I will see what the official replay shows, but certainly will be bearing our issues in mind.

Shame as it was a good track I feel.

Qualifying was a bit disappointing for me with a 9th place though on the green managed to stay out of any drama & had a clean race which netted a 6th overrall.Was a pretty lonely race as I spent most of it as the only car on the track---lol,so yeh there was some pretty bad warping in my case but manageable.Congrats to podium,especially John Bayes,great result!!
Cya all next week.

I had some frequent drops down to 20 FPS which is not good :(

Had a decent race apart from that - picked up around 10 spots on the opening lap and slowly picked my way up the order through the race mainly due to offs by other guys, but i did have to work hard for some positions :P

The only trouble i had was with Mr Zeljko (sorry if it's misspelled)who i tried to pass fair & square 3 times only to be run off the track each time, so when i had another shot i left nothing to chance - sorry if you see it as a divebomb, but if you constantly block the inside and run me into the grass when i try to go around you then i don't know what you expect really. Plus you had lots of room on the outside which you seemed to love on the previous lap while i was mowing the daisies :P

anyway after that i reckoned to get a top 3 maybe at best, but with the appalling driving that held JB up i ended up an undeserved 2nd at the flag.

Disaster. Didn't saw anyone infront or behind of me for about 80% of the race. And other 20%, ah... Just silly cars all around me, someone just on top of me...
One word again: disaster.
Even worse: got run out of fuel on the last lap, and lost 9 positions, aaaah.
If I ruined someones race, I am so sorry. I wasn't there much of time.

Yep warp was definitely a problem for me as well, although as Nick said others didn't seem to have the same issue.

Car landed on top of my front wing at the start of Lap 2 due to the warp which gave me some 'interesting' handling. After that really didn't see many other people. I was aware I was kind of racing Steve, but he got past at some point on some lap and then I had no idea who or if I was racing anyone.

Disappointing and very strange that the pings were good during the race, but cars were warping all over the place.

NW Milan :)

Pretty happy overall - didn't pull my best lap out in qualifying (like I miraculously usually do). A little faster and I could have leap-frogged the 5 drivers bunched within 0.06 just ahead.

But it didn't matter anyway - I accidently changed down into first on the first chicane and spun off. It looked like you managed to avoid me Barney, but if you clipped me, I hope I didn't cause you any damage.

Enjoyed the catchup after that.

Great to see a new team in contention!

All ran smooth for my seat with no warping. As JB said some real bad driving from some of the back markers but if they did not see us on screen then that might be why.
Hugues in particular held JB up then me for 2 laps. I checked the replay so if he didnt see us then why pull over to block?

Anyway good race always had the pace to catch JB but everythime I did a backmarker started racing us and I had to ease off. Not to happy with 5th as Kieron and Jack both caught me because of Mr Hugues. Anyway good race and some good clean fights at the top.

Gratz :)

Is there any race replay available for download. I want to see what happend to me, and also to watch whole race. Thanks.

You should already have it in your replay fridge unless you chose not to record them.
