Hate to burst your bubble, but it's completely dry.

The race has been run and won. 2 retirements (both at the same time), enough overtaking to satisfy even the most picky connoisseur of overtaking and the rare (ok, maybe not so rare around the A1 Ring) occasion of cars being LAPPED. Coverage will be posted on Saturday at the earliest - there is so much footage to go through, my eyes have rolled back in their sockets

Oh no, that sounds ominous. Mind you, the way we are going at the moment, i don't doubt that if we werent the retirements we were the cars that were lapped.

A very minor issue, in the grand scheme of GPGSL things, but....
Some one needs to fix up these flags for the various races! The flags/countries are all mixed up - been bugging me for a while! LOL!
Round 13, 14 and 15 are all messed up. Call me obsessive compulsive.....LOL he he he.....

My Grand Prix 4 Files
I'm a total dick. How many people can say that?

I apologise in advance for any further delays with the coverage. I wish I was kidding when I say this, but the first 8/9 laps of coverage take up nearly 9 minutes on their own. And that is with some overtaking moves MISSING

Coupled with EURO 2012 starting and my own feelings towards this race coverage at the moment (eyes rolling into sockets and head rolling over keyboards), I will have to be up very early tomorrow to have any hope of getting this behemoth out before the end of the activity check window at 9PM tomorrow.

Again, apologies!

Agreed!

Also, a little late but a bit disappointed with my FP session, I just seem to be going backwards as the season draws to a close. Just looking to close the season out with a couple of points finishes now, before I get my hands on our S8 challenger!

Oops, that was made from an old account I logged into accidentally... I wondered why my avatar and signature weren't showing up...

Activity check deadline has passed. Next deadline 19th June 2012 (9 PM).

Sorry Stu! I've had exams and I totally forgot to post. Dammit.

John Warrington to retire at the end of the season

GPGSL Season 2 World Drivers Champion John Warrington has today announced that he will retire from the GPGSL series at the end of the season following his recent perf deduction.

"A perf deduction means I have absolutely no chance of challenging next season so I have decided to retire on a high at the end of the season rather than struggle next season. I'd like to thank Stu Ingers for the AMR racing deal he gave me and Ed for being such a great team mate."

So we've gone from a few weeks on the spin without any penalties, to four.

Crazy.

And again this means a lot of work to do in the perfs, because of Karjalainen's second warning. Looks also like SMS will have to look for a loaned driver again. Not good. Maybe this'll give some next season race drivers the chance for an earlier race seat though.

Hmm thats not as good as we've had recently... Tommi Karjalainen getting a race ban means that Snake need a racer? I am willing to chuck my hat in the ring (i believe this fits with my contract boss?) although i understand there are plenty of better guys/guys needed race practise for next season! Plus to be fair, if i stay in the testers it should make my job easier with 3 testers on penalties :P
