[Tim.E]

@Timmieturner12 - A brilliant result for the team! Will this morale boost bring podiums in the 2nd half of the season?

Yeah definitely, it seems that we've found the form since the last race. We've moved up massively in the standings so this result can only work as a boost to keep on doing the job that we're doing right now.

 

[Azabadaza]

@Azabadaza - It was a really nasty race which you ended too early. What went wrong? And some sources indicate that the team is in serious financial problems. If that is correct, how will you find suppliers?

I went to work, slept, then went back to work without checking my computer :/
Sorry to the drivers/team for that lapse
Yes we are in extreme financial woes.

I'm going to sign BMW
Sign Michelin tyres - $400
I'm told I'm allowed to go negative for these is that correct?

No upgrades
Change sponsor to K&E

All good to go, BMW is pleased to find a long-term partner.

Regarding advance payments to engine manufacturers: Each engine should be paid AFTER the race it is used. So an advance payment is actually an extra fee.

All our thoughts are with Turkey tonight... Best wishes. Don't worry about us, just stay safe.

I've never heard of that word before, but fingers are crossed. Hope you're safe.

Apparently, it was just a rebellion attempt by a small group in the military. They are all arrested now. It was just our dictator's false flag operation to solidify his leadership. This country is damned. Anyway, i will try to not care.

Thanks for the kind wishes, folks!

Good to hear you're fine

False flag sounds quite interesting I must admit, would explain how it was stopped so fast, given it was the military (not like they don't have the means to follow-through with a coup).

 

[Milos]

Good to hear it wasn't anything too serious and that it's all fine

 

[Jimlaad43]

aaaaanyway, I'm looking forward to the Formula Renault side-game too. Looks like fun!
