Race #15, Brazil Race Briefing

Biefring coming later. But I want to announce that we will run the event with the same schedule as before the time change, that means PQ will start at 14:00GMT instead of 13:00GMT, to avoid running it at the same time as F1 Qualy.

So tomorrow's schedule:

Saturday, 14:00 GMT: Pre-Qualifying
Saturday, 14:20 GMT: G1 Practice
Saturday, 14:30 GMT: G1 Qualifying 1
Saturday, 14:45 GMT: G1 Qualifying 2
Saturday, 14:50 GMT: G1 Warmup
Saturday, 15:00 GMT: G1 Race Start
 
Yeah I have to say David this is all well and good but not smart so close to the race. Like Milan I cannot race at the new time. It might be the same time as normal for us Brits but we do organise other things as well as simracing for a weekend and I have an important appointment to keep. More notice would have been nice. So see you all next season.

Hello, a desperate Chris here.
Last month a very dear brazilian friend of me and also a very happy fsr stream watcher on simracetv died.
The idea was to do a special livery in interlagos, Tamas vargasi designed the car but the livery is not there. from the bottom of my heart is there any possibility i can still sort it out and james doesnt have to worry about having no driver!
I know this is a bit off topic but i spent last week making sure this livery is up because he was a good friend and a very good fsr spectator.

This has been sorted out now, I managed to convince Chris I did send the liveries in, because I did and I think its quite disrespectful that it wasn't put into the mod.

Here is the image of the car that needs uploading http://s1321.beta.photobucket.com/user/Ron_Squire_III/media/rFactor2012-11-0310-45-20-64.png.html
 
Just lucky I didn't do much practice so haven't spent loads of time for nothing. But I'm guessing others will have. Yeah its a bit of a joke to be honest. Maybe they think we just take whole days off from doing anything when FSR is running.

well. sorry for all the incidents.

whoever i hit in 3rd place going into ferra dura im sorry. i thought there might be a gap but underestimated how close we all were in pace. totally my fault.

2nd guy i hit in pits. Think it was Kore someone. Im sorry, you braked earlier than i expected for the speed limit, and i had no where to go but into you.

i should have given some margin for that.

sorry for everything, a total disaster for me. see you next year.
 
Hi Mo. My car took no damage (during the race I didnt even think that we touched). Im sorry that I drove like a ****head in the pits (too cautious and slow).

Eduard
