F1 Discussion, general

Also I spoke to Kizza and he says he'll be there to race.

I just remembered, we already changed the time for Owen. We actually moved it back an hour. I hate to say it, but I think we have to stick to this plan. He did ask first, and his issue will not repeat itself (a late flight from France, I think). But if you encounter this same issue in the future, we can consider a time change, I'm sure, if everyone agrees. Sorry about that.

Sorry Chelsea. Does Kizza know about the time change?

I don't know mate. No need to be sorry either I new the score when I signed up.

Kizza is fast. Sauber should do quite well once I plaster my car against the wall in the s-turns after the back straight.

I think i might actually need that extra hour that Owen requested to make it aswell. Must be a Mercedes logistical issue

I'm glad that worked out for you...no...wait I'm not glad. My faster teammate cannot make it. The mercs are too strong!! You guys are so consistently there too. Well, like one of the guys said...rowdy or sniper I think...showing up is half the secret to winning championships.

I'm good to go - home now after a fantastic weekend in one of my favourite cities. I will be honest and say the race is going to be a struggle but Mercedes AMG Petronas need the points!

...And you got them! Along with Caterham.

Pleased to say that DangerClose and Primo have agreed to join us in the McLaren for the rest of the season. Should be a potent duo. Neither are new to F1, as we found out today with Primo joining us. Good to have you.

Great race everyone. Sorry we had a limited grid and had to run with A.I., but if anyone doesn't mind, we can probably now shut them off permanently, as we should have at least 8 drivers, if not more, for every race.

Sorry I couldn't make it again. Work really is getting in the way of a good time. Will keep trying though

yup glad to join, thank you. Next race should be exciting.

Welcome Primo (and Danger) was good racing you last night mate - hope we have some close battles going forward.

Yea, someone needs to beat Owen since he is quickly surpassing me!

We're tied for 3rd at the moment mate, but it's a series not a sprint, so plenty of points to win. And there's one race which I can't make in the series

Changed my driving style - not pushing too hard and just trying to bring the car home! Worked well for me in Bahrain - only a couple of minor incidents during the race apart from the bloody KERS failure!

Thank you, should be a fun series!

I would like to request we don't run with ai anymore. I'd rather have a small user grid than running with those conks

It's a shame Danger and Primo have taken seats in the McLaren otherwise I was going to counter that with no AI except Hamilton - you'd love that right??

Well, that's 4-5 sure votes for no AI. I think we can get a majority (see Bahrain section for my proposal).

No practice for me tonight on F-1!

Choices:

A) video games and spinning out over and over practicing for F1
B) hanging out in the garage with the Penske 22 team and sweet tickets if I want to go into the stands.


Hmmmmmmm

Can't say I blame ya there Harry. Bronn and I are usually on late 1am EDT - 4am EDT if anyone s so inclined to practice then.

I will get on late after the race and see if you guys are on. Need to practice a little more. Been over a week.

I'll be up late

I'll be on as soon as I can get back from the wedding. Starts at 7pm Eastern, reception to follow (we better not stay long!).

Well, looks like no A.I. for this race (fingers crossed that six or more make it) and we WILL implement the new rain system for this race. Sniper has chimed in and would like to do it ASAP and I agree.

Bad news is, it will probably rain in Spain. And not on the plain. BUT at least we can all see how much and predict what our race will be after we watch the race, or at least 1/2 hour before, if necessary. For future races, we can follow the weather and practice accordingly.

does anybody know how long it takes to become the first driver
