Re: Kansas - 26th September 2024 - Round 10

First time I win a race and, in any case, completely unexpected this time with my lap times for 4/5 position. :) Here I drove out on this track during the race two years ago. A bit unsure how it could go this time. I activated a setup from OZ which seemed stable. Furthermore, I made my usual modific...

Re: Blandford Camp - 5th September 2024 - Round 9

Great track, good driving and a dream to compete with in nice flow combination. A bit of trouble for André at the start created an advantage for the right row and then there was tension, but the order stabilised. Suddenly for me I was in second place and set a best lap time for a period of the race....

Re: Bathurst - 15th August 2024 - Round 8

Grats John for winning the race and Grats Rainer for pos.2, a great fight. :daumenrauf: Training early: A track that has long been a favourite and I was able to match previous lap times. PreQual: Was ok. Training in august: The tire wear on the rear wheels was worrying, observed that the bumps cause...

Re: Brands Hatch - 6th June 2024 - Round 7

Grats André, John and Olaf, well done! :daumenrauf: Yes, hectic race at times, there were many fights here and there, must admire such good driving and how realistic it looks. My first pole position ever is unbelievable. Fastest lap in the race is also something to enjoy (Why not have an extra point...

Re: Dundrod65 - 16th May 2024 - Round 6

Grats André for win and Tago to join the podium! Also, to Rainer for finish the race :daumenrauf: . Pity four of us had to break the race. I am very happy; it could not have gone better for me. :champagner: The testing was not as easy as the race was. As a favourite track, the other versions of the ...

Re: River66 - 11th of April - Round4

Grats Tim, André and Rainer! Also, to Tago for 4th. :daumenrauf: Adjusted quite a bit on the setup, so the Ferrari was good to drive, but no matter what I did, the tire wear was alarmingly high. Qual: Set an early good lap time, no disadvantage to the Ferrari on this track. Race: The start was good ...

Re: Mexityre 21st March Round 4

Grats André for win, John, and Tim! Also, Seb for a good 4th. :daumenrauf: The start was poor from a narrow grid position and lost many positions. Better that than causing a start crash anyway. Continued a few regular laps warming up the tyres. On lap 5, I unexpectedly spun into the first left turn ...

Re: Westwood - 29th of February - Round3

Grats André and John! It was a good race. :daumenrauf: Testing: The Ferrari on the default setup with mostly the usual changes I could drive better than I have ever done before on this technically demanding track. But the stability was not good enough for races. I tried many changes to get rid of ov...

Re: Porto58 - 8th of February - Round 2

Grats André for win, Rainer and John for podium and Tago for pos. 4, well done! :daumenrauf: This is a popular track, but it proved to be brutal for the race. Good experiences during training, qualifying and the laps of the race. It may be tempting to continue when I see that time can still be gaine...

Re: Kyalami - 18th of January - Round 1

After Kyalami, more about pedals Olaf; :daumenrauf: They are perhaps the most important thing and braking with the foot against a long wandering spring does not give the best control. With a progressive pedal that reacts to the pressure instead of such a long movement, a new development of the learn...
