Round 7 - Lime Rock Park [May 13th]

Quote :

Yeah, the league of the perfect french drivers, i guess

There is a point in any discussion when someone forgets the reasoned arguments and starts calling any german "nazi", any english "cheater" or any french "conceited", to name some. It's old, it's poor, and as far as HSO is concerned, it's waaaay off the mark. Your personal feud with Antoine only concerns you both, but in this league I have found some of the nicest and most patient guys around, french or not, so I'm not happy to read such things -specially when they are so badly wrong. And it won't help much your cause either.

Well done Philippe Great drive my first laps round the track was in qualy,so used that to set car up for race,had couple of good battles in race,with Frank then yoann and managed to finish so happy with that

Looks like I will have to look at the replay once again

Bravo Philippe !

Alberto you have not written in French but you're very well written nonetheless

Like it or not, I hadn't been involved in a single incident since the beginning of the season before crossing paths with you Edgar. I certainly am not the fastest out there, but certainly one the most experienced and I rarely make mistakes unless forced to. Yesterday I never meant to overtake you, simply to drive on the inside not to lose too much ground, and you just had to go round the outside to have thegood line for the next corner. Apparently your thinking doesn't go that deep, and you prefered to force me onto the kerb which made me spin. Your sportsmanship is terrible on track. I guess you've been watching too much Formula 1 lately, (I watched the latest race yesterday and their diving was even worse than yours for the most part), but that's no excuse. When you arrive in a league you must take the time to understand how things go, especially when you receive a formal warning in the very first race. For example, Alessio did receive such a warning and have been steadily improving since then.

Moreover, and that's more personal, this league I've been creating with 3 good friends years ago now has always been a home for sportsmanship and clean historic racing. By driving this poorly, you're spoiling my fun as a driver, but nevermind I can get over that. You're mostly spoiling my satisfaction as an administrator, and that's why I'm particularly upset at you. I, for one, had had enough good results in my simracing "career" and will never whine for a few points, however sportsmanship is definitely what I go for when racing, and those who race me know it. Apparently you don't even know what it is, so I really hope you don't bother showing up again, we definitely don't share the same values...

pense a bien décortiquer mon départ et prends en de la graine pour la der ca c est du départ d un mec qui va finir 4 eme du champ j attends les felicitations de l admini en chef

Encore une course ou j'ai pris grand plaisir à participer
J'ai essayé de rouler proprement sans trop me trainer

J'ai amelioré mon chrono en qualif et je suis 16eme sur la grille
Apres avoir pris un départ correct, je benificie de quelques sorties de piste pour boucler mon 1er ou 2eme tour en 11eme position

je roule un bon tiers de la course en compagnie de John, Vincent, Sebastien et Phil
Avec l'arrivée des leaders qui me prennent dejà 1 tour la course devient tout autre
je passe plus de temps à regarder mes retros et les drapeaux bleus que mes adversaires devant moi, c'est la course

je termine à une honorable 12eme place qui me satisfait pleinement

Bravo à Philippe Bousquet pour sa victoire, à Tiago pour sa belle remontée, à Greg et au malheureux Lorenzo qui a tout de même reussi à terminer la course dans des chronos tres corrects sans capot avant

Le final promet d'être passionnant

Je vais sortir un patch pour le mod juste avant la course, avec des pneus style GroupC, ça devrait m'aider à finir 4ème.

Don't do that, yesterday my FL tyre was already burning up

The patch will only concern the Begg of course.

*Just to be sure*

Course rendue compliquée par l'erreur que je commets dans le premier tour...

Dans le virage avant la bosse, je perds l'arrière et fait un demi tête à queue dans le dégagement qu'il y a sur la droite de la piste... Le temps de manoeuvrer pour repartir, j'ai perdu environ 15 secondes et je me retrouvé dernier...

Je me suis amusé à tenter de revenir sur quelques pilotes à ma portée, comme Alessio et Patrick, avec qui on s'est bien amusés
Puis j'ai passé le reste de la course à rattraper John et à laisser passer entre-temps, les plus rapides qui nous prennaient un tour... Impossible de dépasser Jhon, mais la lutte m'a bien amusée et bravo à lui pour sa dixième place

Bravo Philippe et le podium, ainsi que tous les participants et merci HSO

La meilleure course,depuis que j'ai débuté la F5000.Les premier tours,avec Edgar ont été chaud.J'ai ralentit pour le laisser passer,car il était plus rapide que moi.Sa tentative de dépassement,au bout de la longue ligne droite,aurait plus mal se terminer.
Philippe et a tous les participants.

Why you just don't calm down? you insulted me in the chat and thats why i responded the way i did. Yes, i love F1, i think doing agressive moves is normal, touching wheels is normal. I didn't saw you there yesterday, i just felt a small contact in the rear. After that i saw the replay and i realized the cause of your insult. We had a lot of fun the last race, until you got mad because i was doing "illegal" moves to block you. Why didn't you get a warrant because of your crazy move to recover your position -after my LEGAL move-? i think you need to take it easy, i'm not trying to take you out of the track all the time, i guess we're having bad luck on track and that's all.

This would happen in any other league, I wouldn't say anything and just concentrate on what I do. Big difference, this is MY league, and when you're behaving poorly here, on track and on the forums, is pretty much like you were coming into my living-room, taking your trousers down and taking a shit on my carpet And I don't like that
