Papa Oppo finished with a great 2.8 sec lead with tyres so cold Queen Elsa's like daayumn. Next race is on some small island nation north of France. Should be fun

Wasn't able to watch this race, but did ok. The super softs lasted shorter than I expected, and it appears there is a loss of time when tires drop off.

L1: 1:33.395 - 4

L2: 1:34.777 - 3

L3: 1:37.210 - 4

L4: 1:39.621 - 5

L5: 1:39.647 - 8

L6: 1:38.307 - 7

L7: 1:40.234 - 8

Pitted on L8 because tires were all the way worn.

Changed drivers this race because Ziegler had 1 talent, which doesn't improve. Great first race for Schmidt!

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

I think times drop when tyre gets below 30 or so. Whatever you do, avoid dead tyres. Look at that suffer. This is a reason to be careful about 'push hard'. Left alone the driver will just keep on going and going and going and going...

Lewis Brown has a talent of 2. Not sure what all that plays for, but his other stats are good and with a good strategem he's been scoring ~5th. He has an overtake of 9, i don't know if that can even get any higher

I apparently I couldn't math with the fuel economy and I'm also doing a driver change for Silverstone so here is hoping for progress.

Man Ziegler's pretty well rounded (can see his stats now since he's unassigned), how's the new guy standing up?

watch out for the signing bonus. Try and calculate out your gas mileage. It's scary coming across the line with less than 1L but so much fun

He's worse overall, especially in slow corners, so he probably has less pace. His talent is 13 so hopefully that matters! He's also only 19 so he has time to develop, and he weighs only 60 kg. I was afraid the same thing would happen to you when I switched drivers, but I (relatively) suffered in that race because I couldn't control his pace or change stint lengths mid-race. I'll be able to see the real affect next race as I'll be able to watch it live.

Signing bonus wasn't too bad I just need to reign in my rampant spending on design staff and it will work out. Yeah I'm going to do the math tomorrow to make sure I don't have to do a gas stop at the end.

Edit: Now that I can see talent levels on drivers and knowing they don't change I pulled the trigger on a 20 year old talent 14 driver that I can work with.

Damn a talent of 13?! I'm wondering if a higher talent allows better returns on training. Talent is good, but tight, technical racing is where it's at

I'm almost out of 2-d views, I might have to drop some cash on this game. Damn, that's how they getcha!

Trust me on this, having to pit on last lap due to fuel is just embarrassing.

I want to see some returns on just how valuable talent is. Lewis Brown has some good stats (overtake 9 has helped sooo much) but a talent of 2.

I have maybe 6 left. I don't really want to spend the money, but I would probably die if I couldn't see where my car was on track!

how are you supposed to manage pit strategy if you can't 2d? I don't want to monies but....gah.

Wow, my first win and I wasn't around to watch it :/

Anybody care to elaborate on how the race went? You say the tires were cold, how cold were they?

I remember near the end I checked and they were light blue. Not quite fresh install cold but damn near.
