Same for me. I didn't do this race but I watched it live and it was really great ! Grats guys, all of you. You made a better show than the F1 2010 pros.
I will be there in Watkins Glen, for once that's a track I like.

Ha oui, j'ignorais ça. C'était donc prévu pour que les teams ne soient pas obligés d'etre présents à chaque course. Dingue ça, on se croirait dans la simu actuelle.

C'était pas prévu pour les absences, mais plutôt pour les abandons sur casse mécanique nombreux à l'époque.
Enfin 1979 c'était la seule année avec ce système des 2 demis saisons assez pourri, surtout pour ceux qui démarraient avec un modèle de l'année précédente.

Pas exactement, le système des deux demi-saisons a toujours existé depuis le premier Championnat du Monde en 1950. Mais effectivement 1979 est la seule année où si peu de résultats étaient retenus (et donc autant de jokers accordés). La saison devait avoir 16 GP donc deux demi-saison de 8 avec seulement 4 résultats par demi-saison de retenus. Personne a aimé et en 1980 c'est redevenu comme avant. En 1981 les demi-saisons ont disparu et on est passé à 11 résultats sur 16 retenus. Puis en 1991 je crois plus de jokers.

Ive just worked out why i have been so slow in the Ligier since my pc rebuild especially on the tracks with slower corners ive forgot to enable a shifter upgrade on my car always wondered why it did not feel right in the 2nd half of the season
I Was almost ready to give up for good with the F179 after my last few awful performances Ive also repaired my wheel which kept working itself loose ,i did a couple of laps after the race last night at Montreal what a huge difference hopefully just the confidence boost that i need ....
So Hopefully i wont be so boody slow at Watkins Glen
Well done Pierre congrats on the championship all the hours practice you've put in mate you really deserve it

Not to forget those who strated the season with 77 models...
I never realised Pierre clinched the championship! Well done, well deserved. That'll be Kauhsen for you next season then...

Quelle rigolade hier soir, moins d'un tour complet, mouah ah ah ah ........ Après une frayeur sur l'herbe, pendant le tour de chauffe, je prends le départ prudemment. malheureusement pour moi, je crois que c'est mon partenaire Brabahm, qui va frotter un peu le mur extérieur après la 2ème chicane. Manque de chance, je ne peux faire un écart, par peur d'envoyer valser ceux qui me suivent. Je tape donc l'arrière de sa voiture, résultat suspension cassée, course finie. On essayera de faire un tour complet lors de la prochaine et dernière course. Bravo au champion

Course truffée d'âneries, les 2 premieres en 1 tour et demi. Seule point satisfaisant, je n'ai pourri la course de personne mais ça a bien failli, quand j'ai touché la ligier Tyrell de Franck sur un freinage. Heureusement, il a tiré tout droit sans dommage. Désolé, Franck La voiture était ultra rapide en début de course mais les pneus arriére se sont dégradés bien plus vite que les pneus avant. Je me suis retrouvé vers les 30 tours avec une voiture qui manquait de grip à l'arriere et pas assez chaud à l'avant.
Bon, tout ça n'a pas grande importance. Comme d'habitude, j'ai pris un pied incroyable à être là, et à essayer d'aller au bout.
Bravo au champion 2010, Bravo Pierre

People buy the gated shifter upgrade eventhough some are using paddle shifters anyway. That way you save time and get better acceleration. Instead of shifting 1 - N - 2 - N - 3 - N - 4, it goes 1 - 2 - 3 - 4. Seamless drive. No need to lift off the throttle when you change gear either... I don't like that but what do you do...

Since so many are taking advantage of it, go ahead.
I'm keeping it honest though, I don't want that crap. Besides I've learned to shift pretty quickly with my stick so the advantage for me would be marginal. Though sometimes it would help a lot, not having to steer with one hand. Who said 79 cars should be easy?

Alfa Romeo won it last year and it was Ligier two years ago, so its more a matter of drivers than number of cars. :raclure:

Well gated shifter users have the advantage of being able to do 5-3-1 on braking for instance so it's only fair paddlers get an advantage on acceleration !

On ne prend jamais le temps de regarder de près les détails de chaques circuits alors qu'il a fallu des heures de travail aux moddeurs pour les inserer, afin de rendre le circuit tellement réaliste. Par exemple, il m'a fallu 5 tours avant que je ne repère ce petit massif de fraises contre le rail, près du bac de sable, il fallait que je les voient de plus près, je n'ai pas pu résister, ma brab non plus...

Yes of course, but the skill level on drivers driving Tyrrells this year might be a bit higher than previous years...
Not taking anything away from them, not at all. They have driven really well throughout the season. Even having the best car in the field doesn't necessary mean you're going to finish the race. A lot can happen in a race...

Oh I'm fine. The download speed fluctuates a little, occasionally it can be almost 100, sometimes a little less. But either way it is stupid fast so I can't tell the difference.
