That was incredible racing! Thanks Speedy and Paul for such a fun fight for the lead and win!
Surprised at how much pace I had, especially considering I didn't do much practice... I felt really confident, and tried an ambitious strategy to see if it worked. Pitted on the same lap as Speedy (did the game bug out? I pitted on my pit space, it indicated that one for me), and came out behind TMM. Was faster than him clearly, and passed him until... He tapped me into Corkscrew, and I ran a bit off line into the bumps, and I lost the rear. Not sure if I got a second touch or not, but my fight for the win was over. Dropped to 4th (even worse was the car didn't accelerate), and pushed really hard. Passed Jihardy and started chashing TMM, over a second a lap. Couldn't catch him in time, but got a 3rd place with a bit of a bitter sweetness that could've been more!
@Miguel - Just watched it back cause i wasn't sure. Contact on the way though the left hander but you dropped it all by yourself from there, didn't make any more contact after the inital bump. Sucked because we could have had a good fight through to the finish from there.
That was definately the best race of the season (sorry Hungary and Interlagos). The field was a lot more even in speed and that lead to actual racing for an hour. Lots of contact between everyone certainly kept shuffling the pack. 2nd was good from a 5" start penalty and then at least 3 accidents that sent me off track (plus some others). Really really enjoyable, didn't feel like an hour at all.
5 finishes, 4 podiums. One DNF. Man if i'd raced the whole season i'd be doing really well
Great racing guys, super exciting the entire time!
So, here we are, the final race of the season at Knockhill! Would really love to have a huge amount of people racing so please see if you can make it! It would mean the world to me if we could have 14 people starting!
Anyway, the final two weeks of the season are here, make sure to practice alot and let's make Knockhill the greatest race of all time!

I totally assist that. Lets make it a grande finale! Also I hope, that there will be a stream with some daily members watching.
Thanks for some great racing. The action was pretty tense. I made some errors, I think everyone made a few. Tight racing for me all day long. I finally had some rest in the last 10 laps. Miguel showed a pretty nice speed. He could've won, also you were very fair when fighting(sorry for being a bit aggressive, but my only chance was to keep you behind in the first stint.) Tangofoxx being in the mid field was unexpected. Speedylu's race was also quite weird.

I wanted to drive a Mercedes next season, but it seems two people already have it. Can I still drive it?
No. Teams which are taken atm are McLaren, Porsche, Lambo and Mercedes. You could join Tango at BMW(would be an awesome team), or TMM at Aston(would be nice as well) or you could just take Nissan, Audi or Ferrari.(did I miss anything?)
Miguel98 and klaasa also didn't do their choice, but I know that they are informed and haven't chosen a car until yet.
