Magny-Cours Masters

It was a very nice race. I have to admit it could have been a bit longer than what it takes to get from grid to T1. But my C5R did great that far.

new Gpu drivers and another pc crash. Fucking nvidia!!

Tire wear was very low in mediums-mediuns, I was fast and had a 11 seconds gap with CC. In my pit-stop I selected not change tires but my mechanics instaled soft-soft. Surprisingly tire temperatures were not high, but I don't know if its could keep on until race end because pc crash happens few laps after my pit-stop

Is there a specific reason why my 1st post is edited?

Edited, I thought that was a bit calm from you Johan :O

I never realised what had happened until i watched the replay :O how can a car dig in like that :O you didn`t put a pin in the wrong track did you :P and it came back to bite you :P

Had a cracking race with Heinz and Boyd :D we all fought hards and drove well for quite some laps with nothing between us :)

I only did this race to see how i could go with the bigger boys, had no prep or nothing so pretty happy with my pace :) it all fell apart whilst following Heinz closely and i eventualy touched the grass and speared into the wall! and lost about 15s and damaged the car to the point i was 1s a lap slower from then on, so just settled for 6th at that point until the pitstop went wrong too :P again they took ages to fuel my car and i changed rears only and it cost me 57s in the stop so a fight against my only hope was Polli but i lost too much time and was eventualy 30+secs down at the finish - until coming into the final chicane Polli had gone off and i managed to just steal 4th place on the run upto the finish!

good for me but gutting for Polli :(

well considering no praccy or nothing it was a blast with quality driving and i didn`t even get lapped by Claus :P

well done podium ;)

Hmm,did i get docked a lap?

Awesome Race! My best ever race. Ever! What a blast!
Well done Claus and Heinz.
Highlights for me included passing David (only to let him back immediately), passing Heinz, but then my pitstop took so much longer...
I console myself with the faxt that I made about 14 seconds on Heinz at the end, but it just wasn't enough to catch him. Hats off to Heinz for a great drive in a Viper. IMPRESSIVE!!
Hard luck to David on collecting the wall, I was really enjoying our very close racing!!

Tim: The replay link is wrong.

And I nearly forgot about Mario. Good racing Mario! In the early dice with Heinz and David I didn't realise Mario had quietly sneaked up behind us. I tell you, I made one little mistake and he shot by me!! Another challenge to catch and pass. Hell, it was a fun race.
Towards the end, after Pablo's race ended (Hard luck Pablo!!), I looked up and saw I was in 3rd. And then the nerves set in ... For the next 15 minutes all I repeated over and over was "don't crash now, don't crash now, don't crash now ...." At one stage I was concentrating so hard my vision started going blurry.

yeah Barry .. probably for making mr Nilsson fly

race was .. okish but slow as usual .. something wrong with me probably but the setup wasn't great either

Grats to Claus and Boyd on the rest of podium

Had a huge battle with David attacking me in his lambo for so long, then i went off on the grass, and he slightly followed me and lost his car... unlucky mate.. the battle was immense.

Then it was Boyds turn, and he was always there, sniffing with ferrari power.

when it came pit stops, my crew were just way mor on the ball, and i came out 17seconds ahead... ferrari's crew cheif let him down bigtime... and i just cruised home after pablo's discon..

Enjoyed the race.. well done all

@ Johan - Edited for this reason.

@ Barry - Yes, for the T1 incident with Johan. I would have notified you in the race if I knew 100% who it was.
