[Dan Brewer]

Nice catch

 

[Christof Schgör]

I apologize for the incident with georg. I simply braked way to early. And for my words i've said after the Race. It was 100% my fault

Respect Christof. It`s nice to see you have the guts to accept something, which you first disagreed. Only big man do this. Thumbs up!
I hope we will have again nice battles in the future like the lap before our accident

Burn your tyres, but not your soul. Peace out!

Post Race checks?

Post Race checks?

He is too busy fighting the Ace director.

 

[Ho3n3r]

No worries, we'll have it before Christmas.

We really should have a 48/72 hour time limit after the race for post-race checks - at least those that will directly affect drivers, like race bans and back-of-grids, as this severely affects preparation.

Everybody can wait for Safety ratings a bit longer I guess.

I agree, only found out I had to buy a license for this race on Saturday which is why I decided not to race in the end, better to wait out my penalty that way.

Wait out? If you want to race at Monza you still have to buy a new license.

Thanks I'm well aware

I'm late again

Q1: great lap, I can't do better than 8th.
Q2: very good lap (12:17), I'm 7th.

Race: my start is quite good (28:39), I overtake the Pro World Champion too, but he immediately reminds me why he is the champion ; I'm 6th. I do my first pit stop in 5th place (41:23), then I overtake Brewer for 3rd (50:14, 2 laps). When I complete my 2 stops strategy I rejoin track in P10, just after Kallas, that I manage to overtake (58:56). I lose my 7th position trying a determinate defence on Boshove; I didn't expect so much marbles, so I half-spin and I lose some time (1:01:42). After that I continue to be overtaked, by Brewer for P6 (1:07:52), then by Suokas for P7, but I manage to don't make other mistakes and I finish 6th, just in front of Filosa and Valkeejarvi. I'm 5th after post race checks.

Quite happy of my race; I just didn't expect so much marbles on turn 2, but it was the first time and I can improve remembering it. Our setup was quite extreme and I think this was the first 2014 race where I wasn't able to drive it as it. Congratulations to Kuba for his great debut , to the podium and to who is happy about his race . Thanks to my team and to the staff (please remember to update GPCos results ).

Bonus
1:22:55 Simply Chris de Jong
1:25:27 I propose to ban clacson in next mods haha

"just in front of Filosa and Valkeejarvi" I finished between those two :-P

You're right; sorry hehe

 

[Teemu Valkeejärvi]

"just in front of Filosa and Valkeejarvi" I finished between those two :-P

I was right behind Campus and Filosa for quite a long time in the final stint but then I spun on the penultimate lap and dropped behind you
