GPGSL S10 R11: Brazilian Wax Grand Prix - Interlagos [Perfs posted][Seat Vacancy]
Posted by GPGSL
Is Maverick going to leave the GPGSL?
The season is progressing and the first drivers have been fired by their teams. Others speculate openly about retiring. Some ask, is the series in a crisis? And now another long-term driver is causing rumours.
While the teams are already on their way to Dubai, the race track where Maverick won his first GP in his very first race, on one of those very rare days when it rained in Dubai, Maverick used a bit of his free time to stay in Silverstone and test. But not the current GPGSL car in the simulator! Instead he has been spotted driving an LMP1 endurance car from an Aston-Martin related private team.
Social media immediately went hyper, spreading rumours that Maverick is going to be the next popular loss of the GPGSL, since he's planning a move over to the LMP1 endurance series.
Fortunately, after his drive on the Silverstone circuit, Maverick checked his Twitter account and hurried to get things straight. Here is what he had to say:
"Guys, easy! Right now, I don't plan at all to leave the GPGSL. I'm very happy in this series, still have the goal of winning the championship and we're making preparations to get our own team in when the time comes. That test drive for March was just that! A test drive! The guys had some balance problems on their new car and the regular drivers were out of ideas. So they asked AMR, if one of their drivers could have a go and since I love these LMP1 cars, I didn't miss the chance. I think I could give some good input and I can imagine maybe driving the 24h LeMans as guest driver one day, if I get the chance. But that's about it."
That said, it seems it's all a case of social media overreaction.

All I'm hoping for is a much better outcome in Dubai compared to what happened to me in Japan.
OK guys, real life has raised its ugly head once more. I will have a look at sorting both the tables and the boost requests tomorrow (Sunday).

Uhm, I should point out right away that this is a car from the race game Project Cars and I have not had any hand on it at all. All credit goes to the PCars community. I only drove it in the game and got the idea for this little story, so I did the pictures.

Not bad for me so far. Wish the team could get in the title fight as soon as possible.

Different person doing the tables, so don't nitpick.

Ok I'm back, I had to attend funerals yesterday. I just want to make sure, how do I call for a boost ? I know I should know by now, but yeh, you know how much Real Life can take over. I should be more active now
Well, I'm sorry to tell you Mathieu, but this season you're not going to be back anymore. You received your third warning, meaning that you're temporarily excluded from the series for the remainder of this season. If a team boss gives you another chance next season, you can re-enter then. I'm really sorry for the bad things that happened you to, but nothing of what you said gives reason to think that you couldn't have informed the GPGSL and public about your absences, prior to it. In this case, you would have been safe of receiving penalties for a couple of weeks. So, see it as a lesson, use the meantime to read the rules again and retry next season.
