Are you running your stream? that's the best bit

No I am not

I haven't been running streams for a while as I usually (however last races that tends to go better) crash and burn while racing and drive in the middle of nowhere 5s a lap down for 90% of the race

How am i going to get famous for my 3rd place finish without any streams?

Save the replay, do some epic video editing and post the result in the Media section?

Probably gets you more views than my stream anyway

Really no words for that, so annoyed

Ricoow · Jan 15, 2020

What a fight, been under pressure by @Skinny712 for like 30 minutes, then he got ahead for 2, then another 10 minutes of pressure. And that in a 45 minute race. Enjoyed it very much!

Gosh I need to make myself a setup for Barcelona, my driving on the default one is a mess and coming up with band-aid solutions during qualy and before the race start isn't that reliable

Very fun indeed

Went way better considering my experience and interest in that track!
Thanks for the race!

Had a nice tussle with @JoaoCastella and @kamackeris then a bit of a lonely middle stint, began worrying I would run out of fuel when @kamackeris came back for the challenge, I just made it to the finish ahead and then ran out of fuel. thanks for the race guys

Yeah I also underestimated my fuel usage, had 2.8L left at the line.

Second quicker than the entire field in Q, still not happy

I wish I was that fast haha

Best battle iv been in yet by far im a little bulling that i lost p4 to @carlsenth after building a gap but rules are rules if you spin someone out you have to wait id prefer finishing 5th doing it the right way than finish p3 by being a scumbag and driving off

thanks for the host @Ricoow really enjoyed it

I'm sure we will have more battles.
I'm just really glad that I am slow as hell and that I've learned to defend quite well haha

JoaoCastella · Jan 16, 2020

thanks for the racing chaps, at least i got some good wheel to wheel even though it was for last place. I think i need to put the hours in practicing. i am way tooooo SLOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! haha

Michael Rudolf · Jan 16, 2020

At least some people had a good race. After I was taken out before the end of the first lap and tried to regain some positions I must have had a bumper sticker saying block me and annoy me as much as you can

Probably one of the worst racesI had in this club

Sorry to hear that, the track also does not help, you can easily place the car to block in Barcelona, very little opportunity to pass unless the car in front makes a mistake.

Not used to passing cars without blues?

Haha there are enough people here that are WAY faster than me. And I like to keep my SA where it is. If someone is more than a second per lap faster than me and ended up behind due to some incident I personally just let them through, it‘s already annoying to them enough as it is.
I don‘t mind a good battle at all, it just all added up.
