i tried to put it in Arek's signature as well, but it didn't work

maybe Arek you could add this to your signature as you have been champion?

Done. Now I'm the champion!

tom

if you want i leave the tournament

no problem

i was battling with antonio, not with you

no no walla its all right noone leaves I love rough fights but this was a bit risky cause 4 of us could have ended up like pile of junk at t4

if you see a blue flag, you should let the car pass
if you are 18th and the leader is coming up behind you, you should not hold them up

i was alongside you and antonio for that whole straight and neither of you slowed down to let myself or denis pass

Tom I let you both pass wtf are you talking about I was on DAMN grass what should I do ?!

Wallace...

Relaxa, cara.
Vou te falar numa boa...
O lance é que às vezes você parece fazer um 'zig zag' na pista e isso é um pouco 'assustador' pra quem tá tentando te ultrapassar, porque a gente nunca sabe qual o movimento que você vai fazer.
Como piloto, você é um cara honesto. Você dá passagem, não faz maluquice e isso já tá ótimo.
O lance é só você tentar ter uma pilotagem mais 'suave'.. manter a sua 'linha' na pista (por exemplo, se você estiver do lado direito da pista, permaneça do lado direito, ao invés de mudar pro esquerdo e depois pro direito de novo e vice-versa).
Talvez isso tenha a ver com o controle que você tá usando.. não sei.. Cê tá pilotando no joystick? Teclado? Volante?
Enfim...
Relaxa e fica tranquilo, cara!
No que precisar de ajuda, tamos aí!
Aliás, foi mal não ter respondido hoje mais cedo antes da corrida, mas eu tava afk e só vi a mensagem quando o Sven avançou pro Q1...
Enfim...
Te cuida e não desanima!

Small sample of the nice 'time trial battle' I had against Arek since we stopped together for fresh Soft tyres at the end of lap 23...

He was in front of me, exactly 2.009 seconds, but I was able to hunt him down (laps 25 and 26 were decisive) and overtook him at the end of lap 26, but still he was buzzing in my ear - you guys can see how close the fight was by our laptimes - and he finally made a mistake (seu juvenil) at lap 33 and I was able to finish the race in peace...

Nice one though, Areko!

(BTW, you could use the Server replay and record my lap 26 (1:17.067) and your lap 30 (1:17.100) - both our best laps in the race and pretty close times - and make a video comparing them, side by side! - if you want, I can record my lap from my own replay (less lag, probably) and you can record yours from your own replay instead - anyway... just an idea...)

Oh dear. Looks like we're going to have a Massa/Hamilton season. In Monaco it was my fault. You went slower than I anticipated and I clipped you. I was really surprised to see you spin because my car barely registered a bump at all. Anyway you did spin so I let you through.

Canada was different because I didn't even touch you at all. I recorded the replays with Fraps, but I don't have a Sony Vegas key so I can't compress it for uploading. (Have you still got your keygen? )

It seemed like a similar case between us in Bahrain, where from my view, you went wide and hit me, making me spin and lose a few places. I'm guessing that because you never apologised, that from your view, like me in Canada, you didn't touch me at all.

It's not the first time I've 'bumped' someone without touching them.

Here I only slightly touched Arnie, and his car seemed to jump half a meter. Watch at 1:32


And of course this one from last season also, where I never touched Denis, but he flew into the gravel trap anyway.


Hopefully I can get a key and upload the replays if I have time.

Adrian, my dear...

I know you didn't cause any of these incidents on purpose and everyone (including me) knows what a great driver you are, so... don't worry about that. I have nothing against you and in fact you're one of the guys I like, respect and admire the most in this league - no homo, pliss...

Still the fact is that the cars reactions to those other people (including mine today) were caused by 'something' or 'someone' actually hitting them.
I don't doubt that, somehow, for you, rFactor didn't show a touch or anything, but I can ASSURE you that on MY replay I was bumped by you (I know it was still an accident and probably it only happened because on your end, as you said yourself, you didn't realize you were even touching me) - and then my car was thrown off track - and it wasn't by myself, I can assure you that either...

So, it's probably due to some lag, which is also sad since I know it's not your fault and none of us can do anything about it. Just hope it doesn't happen again.

AREEEEEEK!!!...

Check your Google Drive, pliss!
I sent you 2 files...
My best lap replay, in case you want to make that video I suggested...
And also the 'final video' I made myself, just as an example for you to see how it could look at the end - I had to use your lap from my own replay, so it's never as good/natural/100% lag free as the one on YOUR own replay, so if you want me to 'produce' this video, pliss put YOUR own race replay on Google Drive as well and let me know!

Seu juveniiiiiiiiiiiil!!!

Not in Turkey, it was not my fault Adrian.Look my onboard.
But I do not think that you are guilty.

On another note I realized I gave my set to Alex in Monaco, he almost took pole, now I gave it to Denis he almost won the race
Heck, I gotta rethink my sharing policy

I'm first in the queue for your setup for Paul Richard

Yes Arek, no problem, I give it to noobs, they are no threat
