It would be nice if the field was a lot more packed for the rolling starts. I know Philippe had some problem with his pedals and that opened a big gap to the leaders, but even behind him some drivers were really too far behind. I don't think its really hard to stay two or three cars lenghts behind the car you are folllowing during a slow lap.

Ça serait bien si tout le monde était beaucoup plus regroupé pour les départs lancés. Ok Philippe avait des problèmes avec son pédalier ce qui a creusé un bel écart avec les leaders, mais même derrière lui des pilotes étaient complètement décrochés. Je pense pas que ce soit compliqué de reste à 2 ou 3 longueurs de voiture derrière votre prédécesseur pendant un tour à vitesse réduite.

I sort of spaced things out from 15th back by spinning while warming the tires. That was 100% my fault.

Well that was short lived.

EDIT : Found it.

Sorry, I lost my temper, my move was terrible. I didn't have mirrors so I thought you had punted me from far away and was really pissed off. Seeing the replay, it's not the case, please accept my apologies :chinois:

People forgetting to race is bad for us too, i've always wondered if there's something we can do to avoid that.

Burdensome indeed. I've since added the whole series schedule to my google calendar which I setup to alert me 4 times from 2 days out to an hour before qualifying. If that doesn't do it then I guess I shouldn't sign up. I suppose the admins could impose some penalties but that's just more work for them.

I think you should get a 500 lb weight penalty since California went Obama. Razz
