Hotlap not working ?

It works, but you have the best lap like them said, Silverstone Club configuration track

I didn't race on first time at Silverstone and actual circuit track time is there

But I think I'm the only one with Bergmann... or I'm losing 40 secs per lap with other drivers

Présent.

Absent

Just came back from some days off the city with horrible pain in my back from my discal herniation, so unfortunately absent

The hotlap page seems to count both the Club and the Grand Prix circuit as one, so is there a way to see the grand prix circuit times?

As both track have the same name, I don't think so

Will make it very interesting tomorrow when seeing what pace everyone is at

Lap 1: Hangar straight



End of lap 1: The leaders



End of lap 1: Midfield battles



Monsieur Bergmann



Class C battles

My race went very well this time. Made only 1 slight mistake which costed me some time. I had good battles with Pierre and Freddy. Was much fun!

On lap 13 I outbraked Freddy in the chicane, we had a slight touch, Freddy went on the gaspedal too soon and spun 10 meters later
You were really driving like a rallycar all the time Freddy!

In BTCC, I'm getting closer to Jesper. I even led a lap (picture #2 above), and finished 1s behind, even if I lost time in traffic in the penultimate lap. I was unfortunate enough to catch them in the corners while Jesper could pass them in the straight.

In Caterham, as expected, crazy 1st race, I screwed my overtake in the final chicane 2nd race, I was waiting in 3rd in the penultimate lap, but sadly got an easy win in the end

First things first: Can someone donate me a new engine? I feel so small compared to the other cars in my class

My start was ok but could have been better. While braking to T1 I thought I would lose my position to the M3s behind me. One time I even had one of them darting into the inside, overtaking me and then understeer to hell so I could take my place back on corner exit. The difference in braking distance was enormous! Overall the first few laps were nice and tense for me. In lap 1 there was actually a bit too much tension while braking after the hangar straight. Someone was trying to get on the racing line after overtaking and misjudged the braking point so he took one driver out and nearly me too. Sad for the driver that had to retire in lap 1 but it looked like a common incident to me when cars with that much difference in performance are racing together.

After the first few laps I was very lonely until lap 14. There I saw the aftermath of Peter and Freddy making out and was lucky enough to get pass Freddy before he could get his car straight again. That was surprising and gave the laps I did before a purpose as I wouldnt have been able to pass if I would have backed up before and just drove it home. In the end he was getting close to me again, that made me sweat
