I might not be able to complete the full race... Off to the doctors tomorrow with a problem in my left foot. Hurts when I put my foot down to walk and hurts when I brake. I will see how I go

Hope you manage Paul and that you get it fixed soon.

Spotter guide updated with the last minute entries! ....phew.

You are a marvel sir

Well, even though I made it in time, it didn't go the way I wanted. Had a spin early on damaging the car, which made the already slow McLaren even slower, and it was over when all cars disappeared and my Rift went dark.

Regardless, I had a great time. Before this league I had only 2 hours of playtime in this sim, and now I have 25! I enjoyed every race and had some great fights. I want to thank everyone who participated and the staff for organizing/streaming. I'm looking forward to the next series!

Andrew Harper · Nov 19, 2017

Oh well I tried my best

Just couldn't get a handle on this car at all. Was running ok but then made a stupid mistake into the pit entrance and I lost nearly a minute in the pits getting myself sorted.

I then ran out of fuel, so with the penalty I would've received it would've only really rubbed salt into the wounds.

Annoyingly when I did a 90 minute practise race this morning I made no mistakes at all and had no issues with the pit stop system

Many thanks for RD letting me take part, I'm going to have a nap now. Ten mile run this morning and I'm shattered after that race. Lol

Had a few nice battles though, good fun whilst it lasted

BrianB · Nov 19, 2017

I said it in the Spa thread already, but I really enjoyed this series!

If I may post a suggestion, something I'd like to see in the future is a mix between the RDLMS and RDGTC. 90 or 120 minute races with mandatory driver swaps.
Anyway, whatever the next series will be, if it fits in my real life schedule I'll probably join it.

Congratulations to Mr.C for the championship win and to all who took part thanks for making it such an exciting contest. To all who helped organize it great work and a big thanks to our wonderful commentators @Joseph Wright @pjlee1998 and Jeremy Brewer for his insights in the final race.

It's coming to Youtube pretty soon I'd guess!

But to answer the question, yes :/

Bram Hengeveld · Nov 19, 2017

Like said a few times on Teamspeak tonight the replay is uploading to YouTube as we speak but takes time to process.

Edit: see first post

@PaulH sorry for hitting the brakes and almost stopping completely before the bus stop chicane but the game froze completely for 5 seconds or so and i didnt know were the heck i was.

Anders Myhre · Nov 19, 2017

Great race @SweAlex ! Was so hard keeping focus when i saw that i lost 0.4 second at both straights trying to catch up again after adding abit too much fuel. You were too fast for me today

Also gratz to mr.bogdan for a great championship win! Cant wait for the next one guys

No problem, I did soil my trousers

Congratulations to the winners. Not a great race for me, but not a completely terrible one either I guess (apart from the game freezing for me for like 5 or 10 seconds for no apparent reason about 6 minutes before the end, resulting in a huge crash that ultimately didn't really cost me anything). I spent most of the race alone, which was probably for the best.

And big apologies to @kamackeris and @Steve Le Gallez for that bit of an early-ish braking on the very first lap tonight at the end of the Kemmel straight. I was trying to stay clear of the cars ahead which started braking a bit earlier as well, but it seemed like you weren't expecting me to do that and it resulted in both of you colliding and spinning out

What makes it even worse is that unlike you both, I had nothing to lose or gain, having not participated in the previous races

I was trying to tiptoe around others for that very reason tonight, and yet I still did damage, if maybe indirectly. Sorry

Do we have the server replay available? (Or any another good replay) My game crashed on the results-screen so I have no replay from the race
