    Rob I can't argue cause the rules say - DNF and DSQ won't be taken. I just asked cause we both have 12.8 and considering the average result is limited to 1st digit I was a bit confused. Now I realized how good the rule is btw. If you are not serious to come every thursday you just drop down, nice :) The problem is I was here both races and it wasn't me that stopped me from playing :(

    Actually you don't drop down if you don't race. Your average points will be the same, it doesn't change if you don't race. But for other drivers who race, average results change (up or down, depending on their results) and your place in the table may change also in both directions due to other people points change.

    Apologies to all, ive no real excuse for missing this other than I totally forgot, was a busy day yesterday getting my car to auction, catching up with the backlog of video footage from my leagues that I just never got the opportunity to check on this league.

    Im unemployed now since I finished work on Wednesday so ill be making renewed efforts this week at getting back ontop of things.

    As I don't have much time to practice, I never practice in the wet, has anybody some tips how to make dry setup to wet? 2 clicks of that to left, 3 clicks of that to right...? Or is it ok to use default wet setup?

    I used my dry setup but the car was too twitchy.

    I did the breakbias 2 click to the right and the gears to default. On this track it worked, but that's no guarantee it works for every track.

    I found Schumacher-Senna crash video from youtube - Schumachers T-cam view.

    For wet setups i tend to make adjustments to the camber. As i have found the running large negative camber wears tyres fast and you have much less grip out of slow corners. I usually +1 to the front wing and adjust the gears so that i minimise wheelspin and have a shorter 7th gear.

    Wheelspin can be controlled with the right foot :D One click to the front wing makes the car nervous in high speed corners. If you remove negative camber you'll gain better traction in corner exits but again you'll lose grip in high speed ones. Besides you'll have much more understeer on worn inters or wets.

    I always end up with massive tyre wear with a normal dry setup used in wet. Front wing I don't find makes the car nervous but whatever suits your style. My setups usually work for me as some of my best results are in the wet :)

    There's a chance i won't be able to make this race because we have visitors coming who we haven't seen in a few years.

    Yes, from now on we'll follow real F1 calendar, only Korea and japan will be between real GP's when they have summer holidays. So NOT every Thursday.

    Upcoming race, I can drive but I shouldn't host, because I'll be somewhere else. So who's the host?
