Mario thank you for the nice words you have written to my pilots, you are a great and honest driver as well as fast.
Congratulations to everyone and the direction of the race for organizing the race. I thank Mario for the compliments; Congratulations to you at your team for the big race At the next race Ciaooo Daniele
Sorry for the car who I hit. I just felt incredibely stupid and forgot to post my apologies, so here they are. I misjudged the situation, as I am still new to endurance racing. I know atleast I wont be making such stupid mistakes anymore, I hope! Am forgetting this race, up to the next one.
Jon, It is good that you have taken the time to apologise as did @Jordy Zwiers later. It was indeed a misjudgement and there is no hiding the fact that it took out the pole sitter and race leader ( my team mate). Awareness and judgement I guess come from experience and attitude. Jordy has acknowledged that it was his first endurance event. @Mario Tump makes some very good suggestions in his post above. Esp doing some laps in a GT3 car if you plan on entering in a faster car which carries with it the responsibilty of negotiating safe passes on the whole grid of GT3s every 10-12 laps. The GT3 cars dont have the luxury of choosing to take the inside line or the outside line in fast corners, they need ALL the road or they need to slow considerably (lift which is dangerous and unpredictable). They need the apex and they will also run wide. So the middle of fast corners are not a good place to pass. In my GT3 stints it was the leading 2 LMP drivers that showed the most judgement and patience. They never went for moves in the S-Curves or in Dunlop. I do think its a very good idea to have either a practice race of say 2 hours where its either part of quali and/or new drivers need to be there to learn the passing spots at that track. @Markus Broch I am curious about your call that the contact discussed as an example was a "racing incident". Generally that means that both drivers bear roughly even responsibilty. Can you explan what the GT3 driver did to be 50% at fault for the contact?
Yeah, I wasnt trying to hide you were leading, as I felt really sorry at the time cuz I figured out it was the leading car on the stream. I just forgot to post my apology as I felt incredibely stupid as I am not used to make such silly mistakes. Different game, I guess (relatively new to rF2 still). Also my apologies to my teammate Brian, but he received those long time ago. I know for sure I will be really careful, and not take out a GT3 again. And again, sorry for ruining your race. My inexperience got the better of me :l

This is a much more accurate and enjoyable to drive version of Spa than the RaceRFactor version. It is from laser scanned origins whereas RaceRFactor is a Codemasters conversion. Of course you'd need to update the loading screen and sponsors etc. from the current ones but that is doable.
Oh nooooo, at least we need Stewards I think we should be careful, most content which is not public isn´t legal and that´s not good for public Events!
It's freely available on the FSR website and elsewhere. I just linked to the FSR version rather than the base version they used because the league optimized it a lot to have better framerate etc. compared to the original non-FSR version. I understand what you mean about being wary of the content source but at the same time I don't know of any scratch built Spa mods for rF2 - they are all converted from other games, including the one that's on the P1 server at the moment.
@Simon Christmann Letztes Mal habt ihr sonen schönen Banner gemacht für das Event - werdet ihr diesmal auch eins machen? Damit wirs bei unserer Liga in dem Thread benutzen könnten? In English: Nothing important you have to know
Ihr habt oben im ersten Beitrag die Dauer von 8h stehen, ebenso in der Welcome-Datei des Dedi, auch noch mit dem Suzuka-Datum. Für neue Fahrer vielleicht etwas verwirrend...
