So I got the PC update when I logged into games for windows live tonight, I must say its much more fun actually being able to run Fuel Sim and compete.
However I got a strange result that I cant work out,
I started 3rd, was in 1st by the first corner.
Held this position until lap 5 when i came in to pit (I was holding up a train as my tires were shot)
Got fking irritated as Massa and Hamilton who were both behind me in the train, just ghosted through me on pit entry
I then pull out of pits (no pit bug) and im in 10th or 11th or so. I was jumped by Webber who pitted 1 lap earlier, (aswell as massa and hamilton).
Now I'm happily going through the race trying to get back past massa and hamilton which i manage to do, as well as passing most of those late stopping in the Pit lane.
Now this is the confusing thing, Trulli my team-mate has somehow managed to get himself from his 23rd starting position all the way up to 3rd by late stopping. (I know he stopped because he came out of the pit lane about 2 secs ahead of me, and with what i think were fresh option tyres promptly ran away).
I have no idea how he managed to lap that fast, as he managed to turn a 25second gap that I had over him when i pitted into a 2sec lead in just 4-5 laps.
Maybe this was caused by the patch re-adding the catchup.xml which i had previously removed, but this irritated the hell out of me as its the 1st time he has had a points finish, and more to the point the 1st time he has finished infront of me.
btw ended up 6th (Barrichello and Sutil also jumped every1 by running long).
