[Mikko Puumalainen]

Incidents:

#1

Verdict: Racing Incident

#2

Driver(s) Involved: Jack Keithley and Jernej Simoncic

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 1 - 3:48

Review: Keithley is battling with Kalamees and has to fall behind for T2. Simoncic takes this opportunity to move on the inside to try to pass Keithley. Keithley however moves towards the inside, seemingly unaware of Simoncic being there, resulting in light contact and for Simoncic to put his right side wheels off the track.

Verdict: Racing Incident, a relatively light 1st corner incident where the victim didn't receive damage or lose time/positions

#3

Driver(s) Involved: Gergo Baldi and Jernej Simoncic

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 1 - 4:02

Review: Baldi and Simoncic are heading for the small righthand kink of T5 with Simoncic in front. Baldi goes to move behind Simoncic as they reach T5, but misjudges the distance between himself and Simoncic, resulting in light contact with the rear of Simoncic' car.

Verdict: Official Warning for Gergo Baldi

#4

Driver(s) Involved: Gergo Baldi and Jernej Simoncic

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 1 - 4:06

Review: Baldi and Simoncic are going through T6 side by side, with Baldi on the outside. There is some light contact between the two but no damage is done or time lost.

Verdict: Nothing.

#5

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 1 - 4:15

Review: Baldi and Simoncic are heading in to T7 with Simoncic in front. Simoncic takes a slightly wide entry with Baldi making a move on the inside. Baldi holds his line and Simoncic cuts in to his line slightly, making light contact which pushes Simoncic slightly wider in the corner.

Verdict: Nothing.

 

[Mikko Puumalainen]

#6

Driver(s) Involved: Gergo Baldi and Jernej Simoncic

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 1 - 4:25

Review: Baldi and Simoncic are heading for T9 with Simoncic in front. Baldi takes a wider entry line in T8 which allows him better momentum and a chance to outbrake Simoncic in to T9. Simoncic moves slightly towards the inside to defend his position, which results in Baldi making possibly lag related contact with the right rear of Simoncic' car.

Verdict: Official Warning for Gergo Baldi (0.5 Penalty Points for 2nd Official Warning)

#7

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Eduard Mallorqui

Lap/Replay Time: lap 2, 5:29

Review: Starkenburg and Mallorqui are heading for T1 side by side, with Mallorqui on the inside. Mallorqui goes in to the corner a bit too fast, making him unable to keep his line. Mallorqui makes contact with the front right of Starkenburg, allowing Varga to pass them both.

Verdict: 0.5 Penalty Points for Eduard Mallorqui

#8

Driver(s) Involved: Giuseppe Marconi, Marcel van der Linden

Lap/Replay Time: 2 / 5:55

Review: Marconi is several car lengths behind vd Linden as they approach T6. Marconi seems to miss his braking point and makes moderate contact with the right rear of vd Linden.

Verdict: 1.0 Penalty Points for Giuseppe Marconi, very similar incident to the one in Bahrain

#9

Driver(s) Involved: Rondon vs Masciulli

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 2 - 6min 51sec

Review: Rondon is battling with Baldi while heading in to T14, with Masciulli several car lengths in front. As Rondon is braking alongside Baldi, he brakes a bit too late and makes contact with the right rear of Masciulli.

Verdict: 0.5 Penalty Points for Moises Rondon

#10

Driver(s) Involved: Kalamees vs Lapchin - Gosbee

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 3 - 7min 29sec

Review: Kalamees and Lapchin are side by side as they reach the braking zone for T5. Kalamees passes Lapchin under braking and touches the right rear of Gosbee, who has a slight oversteer moment.

Verdict: Nothing, Gosbee was the only one disadvantaged and the protest didn't originate from GT Omega

 

[Mikko Puumalainen]

#11

Driver(s) Involved: Gosbee vs Lapchin

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 4 - 8min 46sec

Review: Gosbee is approaching T1 closely following Lapchin. Lapchin brakes slightly earlier than normal since he is also following Kalamees. Gosbee brakes slightly later than normal, and as a result makes contact with the right rear wheel of Lapchin, causing Lapchin's right rear wheel to detach and for Lapchin to retire.

Verdict: 1.0 Penalty Points & +15s added to race time for Martin Gosbee

#12

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Peter Varga

Lap/Replay Time: lap 5, 12:04

Review: Varga has some snap oversteer as he's accelerating out of T14. After controlling the initial oversteer, he seems to have a very small secondary oversteer moment, causing him to very slightly change his direction towards the left before going back on the racing line for the approach for the next corner.

Verdict: Basicly nothing.

#13

Driver(s) Involved: Cabo vs Masciulli

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 6 - 12min 29sec

Review: Masciulli is following Cabo as they approach T1. Cabo takes the outside line and gives space on the inside incase Masciulli tries to push himself on the inside for the corner entry. Masciulli backs off slightly, allowing Cabo to move to the inside. Cabo takes a very tight inside line, which Masciulli is not expecting, resulting in Masciulli making contact with the back of Cabo.

Verdict: Racing Incident

#14

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Philipp Puschke

Lap/Replay Time: lap 7, 15:24

Review: Starkenburg and Puschke are side by side in T14 with Puschke on the inside. As they near the exit, Puschke accelerates slightly and crosses the line of Starkenburg, resulting in contact with the front right of Starkenburg.

Verdict: See verdict for Incident #24

#15

Driver(s) Involved: Rondon vs Masciulli

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 8 - 17min 15sec

Review: Rondon is several car lengths behind Masciulli as they approach T14. As they begin braking, Rondon brakes later than Masciulli and makes very light contact with the right rear of Masciulli's car.

Verdict: Racing Incident

 

[Mikko Puumalainen]

#16

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Philipp Puschke

Lap/Replay Time: lap 11, 22:13

Review: Starkenburg and Puschke are side by side in T14, with Puschke on the inside. As they reach the exit, Puschke doesn't give enough space for Starkenburg, causing light contact and forcing Starkenburg to go over the outside curb.

Verdict: See verdict for Incident #24

#17

Driver(s) Involved: Eduard Mallorqui and Philipp Puschke

Lap/Replay Time: Lap 15 - 27:38

Review: Mallorqui and Puschke are heading for T1 with Mallorqui is about 2 car lengths behind. Mallorqui goes on the inside and brakes too late, causing him to make moderate contact with the side of Puschke, causing Puschke's car to lose stability. As Puschke tries to regain control, he overcorrects just as the car grips up and flies off the track losing 5 positions.

Verdict: 1.0 Penalty Points & +15s added to race time for Eduard Mallorqui

#18

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Eduard Mallorqui

Lap/Replay Time: lap 15, 29:05

Review: Mallorqui is exiting T14 behind Kostadinov as Kostadinov has a half-spin. Mallorqui has to back off, which allows Starkenburg to have a run at Mallorqui. Mallorqui moves towards the inside just as Starkenburg is about to reach his car and move alongside, forcing Starkenburg to back off and lose 2 positions before heading in to the pitlane.

Verdict: Racing Incident, this was an awkward situation, but Mallorqui's move was legal, even if it seemed late because of the speed difference between himself and Starkenburg.

#19

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Peter Varga

Lap/Replay Time: lap 17, 32:51

Review: Starkenburg and Varga are heading for T14 with Starkenburg in the slipstream of Varga. Starkenburg goes on the outside and brakes very late, getting ahead of Varga. As they both go deep in to the corner, Starkenburg puts his left side tires off the track. At the same time, Varga goes slightly too far to the outside, not leaving enough space for Starkenburg if his car had stayed on track.

Verdict: Official Warning for Peter Varga

#20

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Peter Varga

Lap/Replay Time: lap 18, 33:53

Review: Starkenburg is closely following Varga as they are heading for T9. Starkenburg makes a controlled braking manouver on to the inside, but has to back out as he sees Varga begin to turn in on the racing line. Starkenburg has to go over the inside curb and place his inside tires on the grass in order to avoid contact with Varga.

Verdict: Official Warning for Peter Varga (0.5 Penalty Points for 2nd Official Warning)

 

[Mikko Puumalainen]

#21

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Peter Varga

Lap/Replay Time: lap 18, 34:39

Review: Starkenburg and Varga are heading for T16 with Starkenburg ahead. As they approach the braking zone, Varga makes a move to fall behind Starkenburg, but misjudges the distance between himself and Starkenburg. Varga makes contact with the back of Starkenburg's car, causing Starkenburg to leap slightly forward and further towards the edge of the track. As a consequence, Starkenburg runs too deep in to the corner and has to go off track.

Verdict: 0.5 Penalty Points for Peter Varga

#22

Driver(s) Involved: Moises Rondon, Giuseppe Marconi

Lap/Replay Time: 22 / 40:03

Review: Rondon is waiting in his pit box for his pit stop to be over. Marconi is approaching from behind to stop in the box directly in front of Rondon. As Marconi begins to turn in to his spot, Rondon leaves his box and makes contact with the side of Marconi, pushing him off his pit box and causing him to lose time as he stalls his engine and has to reposition himself in to his pit box.

Verdict: 0.5 Penalty Points for Moises Rondon, this was an unusual incident, but basicly it was an "unsafe release" which probably deserves a penalty

#23

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Philipp Puschke

Lap/Replay Time: lap 28, 51:20

Review: Starkenburg and Puschke are side by side in T14 with Puschke on the inside. As they near the exit, Puschke accelerates slightly and crosses the line of Starkenburg, resulting in contact with the front right of Starkenburg.

Verdict: See verdict for Incident #24

#24

Driver(s) Involved: Rob van Starkenburg, Philipp Puschke

Lap/Replay Time: lap 30, 54:41

Review: Starkenburg and Puschke are side by side in T14, with Puschke on the inside. As they reach the exit, Puschke doesn't give enough space for Starkenburg, causing light contact and forcing Starkenburg to go over the outside curb.

Verdict: 1.0 Penalty Points & +5s added to race time for Philipp Puschke, multiple similar (although minor) incidents

The FSR Survival.

Tired about Zombie survival in COD or DayZ in ArmaII ? Become a FSR survivor : Yeah this exists !! How to win ? Nooo, not the race of course , you have to do 5 gp without be protested by an other teams and penalized by The "KILLER", the FSR race director.
I see your eyes become afraid ! yes ! Join us and play our game. hahahaha

 

[Bradley Vanian]

Most of those incidents were nothing anyway.

Rather stupid from teams to report certain incidents... Wastes time for COA, Race Directors etc. Stupid.

 

[Thomas Mundy]

Honestly some of these protests. Anyone fancy protesting against KR Competition for offensively bright blue paintjob? Only kidding guys but some of these protests are just about as silly. Mikko's got to be the most overworked guy in Europe.

 

[Mikko Puumalainen]

This video might not be very reflective of this race in particular, but I think it describes the relationship between the race director (Stallone) and the teams/drivers (Armand Assante) quite well .
