A good 5th with Tafuro directly in front and Copeman directly behind me. That might become a very interesting race!

I thought that, although I was hoping for better in qualifying to be honest.

Such as if there are 23 countries, the top 21 countries get two cars, as in 42 cars and two more so 44 for two qualifyings? i thought of something like that, where team owners control 2 countries until the other teams are filled, but i think A and B teams could work nicely as well. Glad to see that my idea wasnt completely terrible

Welcome one and all to raceday here in Germany for round 11 of the Nations Cup. Qualifying has left us with a very interesting race. Congratulations again go to De Boer but with 4th, 5th and 6th places held by the joint championship leaders we are sure to see a real humdinger of a race. Without further ado let’s head down to the action.
Riding with Tafuro at the start and he is blocked by Ward
Maverick uses this to take both of them into the first corner
McGregor got off the line beautifully and takes the lead into turn 1
Copeman lost a place to Razak due to Tafuro and Ward
De Boer is instantly looking to take back first place
Maverick is just stalking the both of them
And De Boer lunges through and retakes the lead while Tafuro also pulls the same move on Ward
He is up to 4th
McGregor now has to defend against Maverick. He shuts the door this time
Razak and Jantsher side by side
Maverick looking again
This time he has McGregor into the chicane
Still side by side but Jantsher wins that
Tafuro having to be very defensive on Ward
But it is not enough as Ward pushes through
Leaving Copeman to latch onto the Italians wheel
Here are the standings after 2 laps
Copeman trying to utilise the slip stream he has from Tafuro’s car
Perhaps not enough though
Jantsher has the run on Tafuro and makes the pass on the inside
Vukcevic is all over Heart
Paddock has run wide
Antunis locks up corners later and runs wide himself
Ward is close enough to McGregor to have a go
And moves into 3rd
Jantsher manages to shut out Tafuro
Vukcevic has run wide out of turn 1
Everyone has the run on him he has dropped 4 places
McGregor looking to respond to Ward
Takes back 3rd place
In the same chicane Tafuro passes Jantsher
The pass leaves Jantsher under pressure from behind
Standings with 4 laps passed
Jantsher still defending against Yoshimoto
Vukcevic takes back one of the places he lost
Razak is looking to get around Yoshimoto now. The Japanese driver cuts him off and forces Razak wide
No room for Urazel
From his car we see Vanthoor makes a move underneath Carreiro
It pushes Carreiro into Urazels clutches
But Carreiro cuts that move off
Ward has passed McGregor again
Zakes is looking up the inside of Urazel but to no avail
A few laps on Urzael is making a move on Vanthoor down the home straight
He succeeds but Zakes is the big loser in this, first Heart
Then Hunsley
And also Vukcevic as Vanthoor responds to Urazel taking his place
Hunsley doesn’t quite manage to overtake Heart though
Copeman is in McGregors slipstream
He pulls out and alongside
And out brakes the Aussie
Time for a short break

Welcome back to the next part of the Hockenheim GP
We rejoin the action to see Vukcevic making a pass on Urazel
Zakes launches himself from very deep he isn’t going to succeed there
Urazel responds to Vukcevics early move
By going around the outside
They are both slow coming out of the corner
Vukcevic alongside Urazel
And retakes the position
Carreiro runs into the gravel
Vukcevic has run it a little wide
And it costs him he is facing the wrong way
Oh disaster for De Boer, That is his suspension
No need to hit the wall though, Race Leader out
Maverick takes over the lead
Copeman moves onto the podium
Tafuro right behind him in forth
Zakes has a tow from Urazel
He makes the pass and sticks it before the corner
Antunis claws back a place he lost earlier
Copeman looking at his options
Oakley thwarts Xanthis’ attempt this time
He cannot keep him behind him much longer though
Vukcevic yet again having to make up places
He is past Horvath before the chicane too
Antunis dives through on Stein for 17th
Zakes has moved onto Heart
Round the outside like Urazel did earlier
Vukcevic in a sandwich
It will only hold Vukcevic for so long though
He has another before the chicane
Ward is the first man to pit; he comes in from 2nd place
Zakes is in from 11th
Ward rejoins in 10th
Urazel makes a move on Ward since he has the lighter car
Zakes rejoins in last
Vukcevic is very aggressive in his defence against Paddock
First championship contender Copeman in
Followed by Jantsher and Yoshimoto
Ward is on the home straight where is Copeman
He is out in front of Ward
Ward is carrying all the speed
Makes it past
A replay of Paddock crashing into the wall
Jantsher is out 13th
Yoshimoto comes out 16th and like Ward the lighter car capitalised
Our race leader is in
As does Tafuro
Maverick is safely out 5th
Tafuro is out ahead of Copeman but again like Ward on Copeman
Copeman is carrying the speed
McGregor has the lead for now but is yet to pit
He comes in on this lap though where will he filter back
Meanwhile Tafuro is having to defend against the cars yet to pit
Eventually Carreiro does find his way through
As McGregor returns right in front of the both of them
He is out so slow and it gives Tafuro a chance at the pass
He makes it a two-fer and gets Carreiro too

We’re back with even more Nations Cup
Sadly for Madagascar it is another retirement for Zakes
Also just behind him Stein has crashed out as well
Tafuro up the inside of McGregor
Maverick, Ward and Copeman retain their positions
Heart has come to a stop in the pit entrance he has run out of fuel (Embarassing)
A problem arises with Nations sharing pit boxes
Standings following all the stops
Razak is close to Yoshimoto
Jantsher locks up bringing himself back to Yoshimoto
Yoshimoto now has the run on Jantsher
And passes him up the inside
Starting the next lap Yoshimoto is defending against the Austrian
And in a reverse of the previous lap Jantsher takes Yoshimoto
Yoshimoto immediately responds into the next chicane
Carreiro is under attack from the active Vukcevic
Who makes another pass
Razak all over the back of Jantsher
Tries to go underneath but not this time
He tries again at the next chicane but Jantsher shuts the door
Vanthoor has a good view of this as he will be looking to edge into the points
Vukcevic, who else is at it again
Ward has closed the gap to under a second to Maverick
Vanthoor just needs to push a little harder
Ward is right onto the back of Maverick
He is alongside him into the chicane
And Ward is through he takes the lead!
Maverick is looking from a bit too far out if I am honest
Ward however makes sure
He is much closer this time
Ward leaves Maverick no room
Sadly for Madagascar it is another retirement for Zakes
Also just behind him Stein has crashed out as well
Tafuro up the inside of McGregor

Welcome back to the final part of the Hockenheim GP
Straight back into the action as Ward has locked up and run wide. Moves him down to 3rd
Maverick retakes the lead
Xanthis overtakes Hunsley down the field
Copeman taking chunks out of Mavericks lead
Carreiro having a peek at Vukcevic
Just ahead Xanthis has run wide
Carreiro has to cancel the pass
Xanthis is out after colliding with the wall
Jantsher battling with Yoshimoto some more
And having the upper hand
Ward spins again! Rejoins 5th
Yoshimoto takes back the place he lost to Jantsher
The three championship leaders are all in the podium places
Yoshimoto is first to pit
Rejoins in 15th place
Tafuro pits next
As Does Ward
Wards pit crew has done a great job he leapfrogs Tafuro
Replays show Tafuro had to hold for Razak to come through how unfortunate
Razak comes out ahead of Yoshimoto too
But as in a lot of these cases does not have the speed to defend against him
Copeman pits from 2nd
Safely out in 3rd place ahead of Ward and Tafuro
Race leader in will he hold off Copeman
McGregor is in too
Copeman is on the home straight
Maverick is already out though
McGregor has nipped ahead of Ward and Tafuro into 3rd
Vukcevic storms past the just pitted Hunsley
Standings after the last pit stops
More of the Hunsley Vukcevic scrapping
Copeman is less than a second behind Maverick, you do not need a time gap you can see it
These two just refuse to give up the place great competitive spirit from these two men
Oakley wants to join in too
Importantly at the business end Maverick has discovered his pace after the stop
Vanthoor has to put in some good laps if he wants to earn points today
Vukcevic has dispatched Hunsley and turns his attention to Urazel
Perhaps should pick his spot a little better since he is too far away this time
Just ten laps remaining
Both Copeman and Ward still in with a chance of taking Maverick and McGregor respectively
Ward wastes no time, he comes out of McGregor’s slipstream
And passes him up the inside for 3rd
McGregor is trying to respond
And succeeds in the next chicane
Ward is not finished yet though
And retakes McGregor
And puts a bit of space between the two lovely racing
As we enter the last lap Maverick may have just enough of a gap
Same for Ward
Vukcevic still making passes
And he does it John Maverick wins the Hockenheim GP
Copeman 2nd
Ward 3rd
Razak hangs on to sweep up the last point
Here are your standings
Big congratulations to Maverick that is his first win of the season and it sends him into sole lead of the Championship. Although Copeman finishing 2nd doesn’t offer much breathing room for the Swiss driver. A very busy race was witnessed today and I want to thank the drivers for really putting on a show. What an advertisement for the Nations Cup they were today

YES! That last set of tires was incredible. I was finally able to push the car to its limit and stay in front. My first win and the lead in the championship...that was not what I could expect after the qualy! Great race.
Nevertheless Chris (Copeman) needs some good words, too. He kept me busy all over the race and it was fantastic to race against him...great driving man!
Unfortunate for DeBoer, however. I think he would have won this race without this mistake, as he shew an incredible speed. Hopefully he'll be in the fights next time again.
