rF2 Classic Formula 2 @ Brianza 1966 - Mon 10th Nov

[Fred E Jay]

What a race !
I thought I'd keep my usual last place and I finished 5th !
Thanks to those who crashed here and there
And, more seriously, thanks to these with whom I had clean battles, that was great !

 

[Joao Fernandes]

As expected this was great fun. Love the handling of these cars and the way we have to drive them.

Although the race could have been a lot better if i could keep the car on the track instead of my obsession with cutting the grass while doing a 360º.

Even with the mistakes and alone most of the race the pure joy of sliding through the corners managing the throttle is enough to keep me very happy.

Thanks to the other brave men that didn't fear some wind on their faces and went for it.

 

[Matej Lakota]

Great race, fast and fair drivers on the track, I love ´60 cars ... just a perfect evening and my thanks goes to all involved .

 

[David O'Reilly]

Yep it was great.
Most chose the Eve but Joao mixed it up in the Spark.

I made a silly error at Lesmo1 lap one. Allowed myself to think "someone will make a mistake here and I will gain a place or two" It was me, careered into Joao I think.

Let him through and chased hard, I hope he wasnt damaged , my car had small damage but didnt seem to affect pace.

Then I did it again at the same place to Frederic I think.
Lucky I had "sorry" mapped to a quick chat key- i needed it.
I didnt quite live up to my Bruce McLaren replica skin.
Still these cars are great when you get it right, that sliding.
I felt I needed to wipe the bugs and oil off my cheeks afterwards.
Well done to Matej who is so fast in these cars.
Also well driven to all drivers.

This was a great race, unluckily Matej made no major errors. No excuse (it is), however I drove so many different cars the past week at Brianza and felt so lost under braking and cornering. At the first lap it seemed I have much more grip than Matej who was fighting with the car a lot. At the end of the second lap I lost my rear during braking into the Parabolica and lost 4 seconds. I had a great time with Zoltan and we tried to slipstream to get closer to Matej, however the drag was a bit less than expected soI've decided to chase the leader alone. Sometimes I felt a bit quicker but Matej was way more consistent today . Well deserved win What driving aids you guys had used ?

What are driving aids?

Thanks Gergely, I think I won just because you and Zoltan fought your battle and I could made a gap in that time. You are super fast, grats to you both and also for your fair drive, I think a lap and half we drove wheel to wheel without and serious danger to put anyone out of the track. Impresive, mate .
I drive all vintage cars without any aids, with H shifter and clutch, doing heel/toe to keep the car under braking as stabile as it could be
