As I watched the replay of the last race I noticed a lot of driver mistakes by others trying to pass me. Clearly, guys, you're using too many risks. At least look at the manual and take it into account that risks of over 40 are excessive for rookie drivers. For example, I've not used even half of that all season.


PS! Your drivers' risks mean that the parts of your car wear out more quickly as well, and that means you'll lose money, a lot of it. And money is important if you are aiming into TOP4.

Exactly, great point, also the tyres dies off more quickly.

What happens when you try to outsmart the game and fixate your pitstops and tires. You fail miserably. :)

I just tried to predict that the track will be dry by the end of the 23rd lap or so. Missed it by 20 laps and drove with Mediums the whole time :)

First finish outside the podium and well deserved :D

Time to make some money now, until the end of the season. Will need it in Amateur

Arestides Alves. Why did you gift me the win of the league?

You cant finish the league with negative balance of money. You will finish the league in last place.

Baffles me.

I've done this to scrap off my driver's motivation, so I can renew the contract with him and prepare him in the next season for the amateur league. Also, if I've gone for the promotion, I would struggle in amateur with no money and an unprepared driver.

(Also in rookie you don't finish in last, you actually finish in the place u are, but, you can't be promoted with a negative balance )

You still can win the league, you just need to finish in a higher place than I :)

Cheers mate, good luck in amateur next season! Hope you do well.

Thanks to all for a hard fought season for the midfield. My first proper full season has given me many learnings. Good luck to those who get promoted for next season and the rest of us I look forward to more battles next season

LOl. This win was a longshot. Ofcourse you cant win against a car with all new highest level parts.

tho. I could have won the season a month ago if i hadnt been passive.

good luck everyone.

Well, due to a fundamental misunderstanding of the "fuel left" reading, I had been calculating my fuel usage incorrectly all this time. Thus, my risky stop strategy in the last race failed spectacularly. I really thought I had a chance at a great race this time. :(

Looks like the fight for 4th promotion spot is pretty fierce (assuming all 3 want to promote). Good luck guys! ;)

Yeah same here, it will be devastating if I do promote. Thankfully it doesn't look very likely now. I will definitely go for it next season though!

Just in case if you guys don't know, you can avoid promotion by having negative $$$ after the season ends ;)

Makis, for example won't promote this season, so Mark is pretty much guaranteed to be the 4th promoter.

I found out that once again I made a major mistake when calculating fuel, which is why I keep having to stop again just before the end of races. Oh well, live and learn. I don't want to promote this season either so it's all good.

What the hell is up with Gavras this season?!
