No problem Steve, anyway i look at the stats, and 2 races and 20 points. So even if you tied Xzwins on both 2nd, Xzwins have more 1st position than you, so he woud lead you. None can take your 3rd.

Division 2 top 3 is closed

BIlbo 1st
Xzwins 2nd
Steve 3rd

Division 1 is not over yet.
Flow 1st
Aaron 2nd

Hitman is now in 3rd, but Brad is right behind, so need to wait...

Congratulations to all who finished, that was an exciting race.

It was very close for the first few laps but then, as expected, I started spinning once in a while. That's what happens when you don't practice enough (less than 100 laps instead of my usual 200-400 laps). Nonetheless, I managed to catch up to Juan and we did our 1st pit stop together on lap 15 or 16. I was on 3 stops but Juan switched to 2 and still managed to exit his box 0.2 seconds in front of me. I don't know if that was planned in advance or not, but that move was Ross Brawn-like and basically ensured Juan's win. Had I come out of the pits in front, I believe I could have won this race because then Juan wouldn't have slowed me down for so many laps, although I still did slow myself with a few extra spins.

Juan ran a mostly perfect race with not many mistakes (that I could see) and although I believe I was faster in race setup, he still got a great win by driving consistently and staying out of trouble.

That was definitely one of this season's fun races for me. 8)

Ferry, Euro div decided to run at Bahrain instead of Turkey because it was not ready in time. AFAIK, the Euro season is over now, except maybe for the traditional Race of Champions, which was not discussed much...

The RoC used to put the best 3 north american drivers against the best 3 europeans at the A-1 (Austria) track to have an overall World Champion, even if it's only for fun. If and how we do it this year is still left as an exercise to the reader...

The difference of time seem to be ok, remember you Euro use the RH04 physic and NA use the 03 physic... So you guys shoud normaly be able to drive few secondes faster.

Hi Guys,

The race for me wasn't too bad.

My Qualifying lap could have been faster but my nervesgot the best of me yet again and I was lite on the throttle exiting a couple of turns but other than that I was pretty happy with my lap.

My race was good but not good enough.
On the first lap going to T4 Bilbo went wide or was approaching the turn to fast so I saw an opening and went for it. I think he spun there a couple of laps later and the pressure was off, but not for long.I thought to myself "ok it's just me and Juan, Lets do it" on the next lap with Bilbo 6 or 7 seconds behind at T2 I spun (nothing new there) and Bilbo caught and passed me, from then on we swapped positions a couple of times but the gap between me Juan and Bilbo was always between 3 to 15 seconds so you were always on edge.

On the last lap I was running out of fuel so I had to slow right down so I'd make it to the checkard flag, I crossed the line with only 1 litre left of fuel.

Congrats to Juan and to Bilbo it was a great race.

Hopefully we can do the same in Turkey (which is on my birthday whoooo hooooo) LETS GO OUT IN STYLE!!!!!

Steve B
FORZA FERRARI !!
