Great races, good job to everyone who pitted at the right time - unlike me - when the safety car was deployed. I also think we did well to get away with just one SC too!
Timo Hynninen
53, 36
Feature race lap 7 12:20 or so
The Lathuanian (can't remember if it was Lithuania or Latvia and I can't spell his name) overtakes people under sc.
Quali : 13th place, improved my PB a bit, nothing more to say.
Race 1 : I was careful, avoided some crashes, but got passed by 2 or 3 cars. 13th place.
Race 2 : Avoided the first lap mayhem, passed a few cars that were spinning, then the SC came, I pitted(nice timing), had a regular pace for the next laps, had a some nice fights, especially with Lizard and a Jack(was Segwich, sorry for the orthograph), then on the last lap I was 6th, and then, nice I had a nice fight with Timo on the last meters of the race, which resulted in a nice crash, but bah, we finished 6th and 7th. So, well, nice team work.
well, for me it was a good race aswell.
had some trouble during quali, had a crashed car during my 1st fast lap,
a slower car ahead of me during the 2nd but anyways.
sprint was okay aswell, close but fair and good racing.
final was rather good aswell.
i did not take u out in t1 texas, at that time i've been 2 positions behind u and ur crash was cause of lag.
during the sc period it was a mess like usual. i got bumped by texas and bumped the 54Hill several times aswell.
1 of those bumps took him out, and i gotta say SORRY here, totaly my fault.
don't know what i did there, think i had a look at the tires but anyway.
then my antivirus poped- up and my race was gone.
but good racing, i'm looking forward to westhill and hopefully better sc periods.
so sorry again number 54 :-(
best regards

Great second race there. I managed to pull an Alonso with the safety car and got in just before it came out. This enabled me to jump up the order as the race went on. Had a brilliant fight with Ondrej at the end there - I think like most real circuits the timing beam is not where the visible start/finish line is - either way, like he said, 2nd or 3rd is irelevant because it was a brilliant race to get there.
Gratz to all who was in the race and the winner for win.
Abaut quotes and the pictures in there: This is obviusli a bug in LFS , we had a same bug , two weaks ago on this track on normal way (ky2) , racing with fo8 on DSR R2F1. Maybe is a good idea to contact the developers to see what they say abaut this.
It's not a bug it's a lag thing really. The gap between the two cars is very small so what is displayed is not always entirely accurate but LFS ranks the cars according internal timing meaning the result are always in synch even if the display can be a bit out sometimes.
I've done a quick calculation, without including the protests. For those who are worried about the broadcast Sprint Race is produced, Feature follows midweek, weekend the pre and post race things, sothat next week commentary can be made, and so the broadcast can be released in time. It will be SD and 16:9.
EDIT: official results + point standings are now in the official thread.
