Quote from Intrepid :

Has to be said that Hamilton looked like he really didn't care if he took Button out at T1 (which he nearly did). Just didn't look happy at all with the team and the fuel call. I think there was some coded message in there from the team about 'not racing' and Button shocked him when he made his move. Fair play to Button for giving it a go, but Hamilton is a nut job so he will push it back.

On the 'incident'. What shall we name it? Turkeygate? Vettelgate? lol Vettel's biggest mistake was his gestures following the crash because that gives an insight into what he really thinks about Webber. It was 100% Vettel's fault, but I can't help Webber should've just conceded because Vettel has a habit of doing weird things when other cars are near him. RBR seem to be makingt he same mistakes as they did in 2009.

Yes excatly what I was thinking. Hamilton did hit Button in turn 1 as far as I could tell.
Button was clearly told to back off, and hold his position, too bad for him, he was faster than Hamilton today.

The incident
It was Vettels fault, he turned into Webber obviously, however Webber could have, but choose not to give any more room than necessary.

Thx for practice session. Its very clear these sessions are much needed for many drivers. I almost lost my patience out there, so many crashes and safety car sessions. How many laps during safety car? 25 laps or so..
Not really enjoyable

A suggestion, open up the pits sooner, and dont let us run after SC car for 5-7 laps, thats just wrong

BS administration.. 999 for a first offence. LMAO

:doh:

Hmm, I think Hamilton made the correct call at t1 lap 1, giving the fact, that if he would have forced his way into t1, they would have been 3 wide and it would most likely result in a collision for Webber, Vettel and himself. He just didnt have the overlap to even try to attempt a move on the inside of Webber.

Quote from anttt69 :

There was plenty of drama:

1. Car forced onto the grass @ start of race. + crash
2. Cars bailing @ T1, taking shortcuts over speed bumps.
3. Cars crashing out.
4. Cars setting on fire in the pit lane.
5. Cars ramming each other & breaking into pieces.
6. Button being a puss.
7. Ferrari nearly slamming into back marker.
8. Vettel driving with no brakes.
9. Hamilton front tyre explodes with 2 laps to go.

Were you a sleep? This is F1 remember not BTCC.

Some people are never satisfied, maybe they been playing too much Carmageddon back in the days

Quote from The Moose :

Ohh come off it Lamerr, That was a boring race.

There was next to no action whatsoever. If that's what you call an exciting race you must lead a very dull life.

Right, not even going to go into a, Ive seen more shit than You(which I have) discussion.

But what I said was, it was a fairly decent race, like more or less every race, it had its "dull" moments, but that should not cloud the overall view of that race.

Quote from Mp3 Astra :

Everyone has the right to express their opinion. But that said, I whole-heartedly agree with you anyway. I enjoy the race, go to visit some forums and get depressed by the negative responses from everyone. I guess I should blame myself for visiting forums.

Surely they do, I didnt say that they couldnt express it, however like You say, its depressing to see so many black&white mindsets that are seemingly never satisfied.

I guess these people must know not to watch Monaco next week, surely that will be a boring race. Right
If You expect something - You will get it

You kids are always stating, "oh what a boring race, bla bla yadi yadi"

You kids are never satisfied. The race was fairly decent, overtaking was present, attempts of overtaking plentyful, drama, excitement, it was all there..

But You people always complain, I think You should make an F1 complain thread instead of trolling this one and moaning after every race.

I don't have a credit card - that's why I haven't bought S2 'till now. If I had one, I would be S2 now.

Like theres no way around that, use Your imagination, I bet Your mom, dad, friend whatever has one

A very entertaining race. No penalties should be given, however Hamilton was in the "wrong" exiting the pit box, Vettel simply held his line firmly. But It was damn fine racing, so let them race and stop whining on about penalties where there is no such need for any. Hamilton is damn stubborn, and its great, he is always good for excitement on track.

Quote from JPeace :

I liked the fact Buemi tried to still turn in even when he had no wheels, lol.

The same thought went through my mind, found it hilarious that he so eagerly tried countersteering when both front tires were gone hahaha.
Ofc its a natural instinct, but that doesnt make it less funny.

[QUOTE=zeugnimod;1399329]More like the car "owning" him.

Yes thats right, they did mention it after the race, but at the time it happend, it just looked as if he braked too late, so apparantly it was brake issues, too bad for him.

Awesome race, what more can You want from the seasons 2nd race.
Alonso had no blame in the turn 1 incident, neither had Button or Schumacher, just bad luck.

Webber needs to play some lfs, then he would know how to brake earlier than the 2 cars in front going side by side, really a noob mistake, but it doesnt make me think less of him, hes a great guy and fighter.

Button drove like a champ, made the right choice, of course lucky that Vettel owned himself.



But god damn I miss Kimi!!

And a couple of XRT`s

Some sounds I made, some are really great I think, have fun!;p

I have some serious issues when recording, replay(screen) just freezes, whilst sound is ongoing. Dont know what the problem is, any ideas?

I followed the instructions listed on page 1, recording at 0.250 speed. I tried recording normal speed, screen just keeps freezing..

This dude cant drive for shit, what a noob lol

Oka I found one luckily

Anyone with a live stream link of the training? Rtl are not showing training unfortunately

Yup cant wait either, no more winter depression, starting from tommorow haha..

Im thinking Schumacher in 2nd start row for some reason. Hope the champ will provide us with some good racing__

I did actually search for similar threads, but didnt find anything that matched this(maybe I missed it). But my mistake if this has already been discussed previously..

Nevertheless, if I were on the developing team, I for sure would find a way the get rid of the many demo users that are exploiting LFS in a never ending fashion, with no actual intend of buying the game..

This is something I thought about more than once. At the moment there are 524 demo racers online and 225 licensed racers online, just to make a point. Somehow this irritates me quite a bit.

Lets say the developers were to offer the current track BL1 and cars for free in a trial version for 30 days. When the trial is over, demo users would only be granted permission to race online with one car, for example the UF1 or maybe the XFG. During that 30 day trial period, the demo users would have had a decent chance to test out the game, and decide whether it is worth paying for. Be it semi or full license S1/S2.

The way I see it, demo users have far to many priviledges in this game, without ever paying and actually supporting the game/developers.

It is quite obvious that most of the demo users are more than happy with the current way this system functions. Lots of demo servers available, lost of users online, 3-4 cars to choose from and so fourth. So why bother paying for anything ever!?


Am I in the wrong here?
But I feel strongly that, they should be forced to pay, or have their demo options restricted heavily.

You were shortcutting quite a lot, and overtook this mena whats his name by cutting the track, surely he must have been a bit angry with You from this cutting. However a 90 day ban sounds harsh, a kick should have been enough!
