Hi Rico, I can't understand why some have problems with the link and some don't. The link works fine for me.

Me neither ... It's also weird for me since I posted the forum spoiler and I can't open it myself unless I open it in a new tab

I Just made it with (spoiler=TITLE)TEXT(/spoiler)
Just use " [ ] " instead of " ( ) "


If you are racing, keep on racing and get some points!

I understand your point of view and I agree that an inactive owner has to be penalized. However I think the way the league does it is a little bit harsh as you penalize the whole team and not only the team owner. What I mean by this is that we are all working very hard to make our team better, going every day at the factory to improve the car and try to get the best strategy for each race, and all this work is now going down only because of one missing person. Hence why I think we should find a better way to penalize the team owner and not the whole team IMO.

Not completely off topic : does someone have news of mortal the last days ? The last thing I've read from him was this enigmatic thread in GP3 forum.



And how would you penalize a team owner who is not a driver at the same time? Since this has to be our reference, first of all. And also explain to me, please, how, in your opinion, a driver is penalized by the constructor's championship point reduction? I'd agree with you if there was a team perf reduction, but this isn't the case. It's simply a reduction of the championship points, the perfs stay untouched! So again, please display me how the other team members are penalized in this scenario and how the team 'is going down'? And make a suggestion of how else a team owner who isn't a driver could be penalized otherwise.


GPGSL : Team Owner of 'Maverick Track Performance' (MTP)
Nice work by the two Demon drivers. Didn't expect too much in Brazil, but got a half reasonable result for the two lads! Well done....





GPGSL Team Owner Debut - Melbourne, Season 8 - present
GPGSL Test Debut - Hungary, Season 4. GPGSL Race Debut - Adelaide, Season 5.
Solid points which was a necessity after last race.





X (@ed24f1)
our race was good, this is a solid result
Owen Edwards @oensan 1 hr
Not a good race. Up to 12th following the stops but then went uncontrollably backwards. Why am I always the first to pit? It doesn't work!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unless I'm very much mistaken... I am very much mistaken!
Expected more but 7th is very good. I had hopes for a podium or even a victory (I let myself dream, heh) but I just wasn't good enough. Stefan is still hunting for big points with his podium, so a big congratulations for him :-) Overall, happy but not satisfied at all.



Stats: 139 Starts / 7 Wins / 9 Poles / 5 Fastest laps
Wow, I still can't believe that I've won my first race, even at my absolute favorite track. A big thanks to the team for the fantastic car. Finally we were able to show how fast it really is. Now it's party time, everyone come and join us at TSM, we'll put the word party to a completely new level (B)(B)(B)


The tables will be up on saturday, as atm I only have limited internet access.

@Stu: Could you please post a pic of the quali results & the fastest laps? :)

I perfectly trust Maikel de Boer for designing the cars.

when did this happen? D:



My GPGSL Career
Yeah!!!!!!! YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!

C'MOOOOOON!!!!!

wow... right... YEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!

What a bloody fantastic race! Literally SO over the moon with the win and fourth for Team Shadow. We took a huge gamble and used the last of our boost here but it paid off! Pulling back from our worst start to a season ever, I am so happy to see our name back on top.

Well done Tobias, you deserve this result after investing so much time in the tester series and then coming to a surprisingly noncompetitive car in the TSM. Thank you so much for sticking with us matey and may it be the first of many for you.

Ruben, what a guy you are, you've really had the most unlucky season of anyone so far and you should be fighting for the lead in the championship following your performances last year. Take this result and build on it!

Thanks to all for running this round of the GPGSL - it's rounds like these that make you realise how great it is!



With Kederer's win, that makes it 8 different winners, and 7 different winning constructors. I think there is a strong chance of having a 9th different winner at Spa.

By the way, just wanted to say about the coverage...

Fantastic! 10/10. I absolutely love director mode on GP4. It's so much more realistic and makes you focus properly on the video to make sure you catch as much action as possible including stuff going on in the background. It, for me at least, makes it much more enjoyable to track my progress through the race, even though I was going backwards more often than not towards the end.

From today's race, remove that one replay and the side-on tracking shots, add a pinch of commentary and it'd be 11/10!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unless I'm very much mistaken... I am very much mistaken!
I excepted more from this race
