F1 Manager - 2005 Season - End of the Season!

Posted by Twigster151 
Another retirement for Glock despite us improving reliability. Zonta did okay but we struggled.

We are very pleased that we have sorted our line up for next season already with Gary Paffett staying on. We have also decided on our line up for next season.

Driver 1 - Glock
Driver 2 - Kovalainen
Test/Reserve Driver - Paffett

But Paffett may be used for 1 or 2 races depending on driver performances.
Jos Verstappen tops the timesheets

In friday free practice Ferrari's Jos Verstappen was the man with the best timing. In a session that started on a wet track, he went out to the right time as a dry line appeared at the end of the session. No other driver was able to beat his time of 1:22.210s. His teammate Felipe Massa only got 20th with almost 2s back. A very good performance was shown by the two BARs who both are in the top 10. Timo Glock also showed his skills in wet conditions with 4th place. The Williams' both struggled down in 15th and 17th place. The man with the biggest problems today was Gianmaria Bruni in last place, with a gap of 1s to 21st.

Looking good for the rest of the weekend.

Good performance shown by Kimi, Gianmaria also with a solid job, he only did longruns today.

M. Schumacher on pole - Alonso crashes

In a dry qualifying session today Michael Schumacher, winner of the last GP, took pole position ahead of his former teammate and world champion Rubens Barrichello. Jacques Villeneuve in the second Williams confirmed the upward trend of the British team by taking 3rd place. Giancarlo Fisichella and the both Saubers also with a good performance today all qualified in the top 10. A bad session for McLaren, both cars will start out of 6th row in the race. Toyota and Jordan also way off the pace they already showed earlier this season. A disappointing result for Fernando Alonso, after crashing in Brooklands on his second run, he wasn't able to improve in the remaining time and will start down in 16th place tomorrow.

Great qualify for us :-)

Looking good, let's hope for some points.

We have mixed feelings about the qualifying. Giancarlo had a superb session, whereas Takuma could not match teammate's pace.
Why do we suddenly have, like, no pace anymore?

Poor session for arrows. We need a bit of rain it seems in the race.
Jordan

Not happy with the qualifying, with a bit luck we may get one or two points, but that's rather unlikely.


@all: race has been run and won, about 1.000 screens to sort now, I hope to get the coverage done today, at the latest tomorrow.

British Grand Prix Race Broadcast - Part 1/3

Hello and welcome at Silverstone to the British Grand Prix of the 2005 Formula 1 season. In yesterdays qualifying Michael Schumacher took his first pole position this season, and he now will for sure try to convert it in his second win in a row. The first row is completed by World Champion Rubens Barrichello. The rain clouds that have been over the track on friday are all gone, and the weather reports all predict a dry race for today. Lets go to the track, as the race is about to start now.

All red lights are on

Webber does it better and passes his teammate Kubica


Who has Vettel right behind him now

At the inside of Sato

Villeneuve has to defend against Fisichella


And he manages to keep him behind


But due to their fight Button now has the better line and goes around on the outside!



Great move and 4th place for Button now!


Heidfeld now versus Zonta!


And Zonta is the next one to pass him. Heidfeld has lost 6 places now.


Webber gets out of the slipstream of Coulthard


Side by side on the way to Abbey


And Webber passes the Scot who is now 8th


Barrichello sets the fastest lap


Much action at the back: Zonta vs. da Matta, Raikkonen vs. Heidfeld and Lotterer vs. Davidson


Down the Hangar Straight Villeneuve gets out of the slipstream of Button


And he passes him inside


Coulthard looses another place to a Red Bull, this time it's Kubica. And Alonso tries to overtake Sato


With success!


Villeneuve runs wide at bit! Seems he was too fast at Stowes

But he defends his position

Well done by da Matta, 12th now for him


Coulthard under pressure from Rosberg


And they touch! Rosberg brakes too late and runs into Coulthard, who goes off the track and drops back to 15th


Vettel, Sato and Zonta profit by this incident, they all gain one place

He does!


He has to retire with an oil leak

Speed = poor.
Reliability = not what it used to be.

Not pleased so far...

DOTD: Many drivers with a good performance today, but there can only be one. The award goes to Jacques Villeneuve, fastest lap and a third place today, but who knows what would have been possible without his off at the beginning of the race.
