Blog release from Zoran-Stoddart Alliance GP:

The team arrived in Monaco yesterday, such beautiful place to start F1 racing. Ex-Benetton cars are ready in our great AMCO-European sponsor stickers, cars look groovy. Monte Carlo is difficult place to start first grand prix, special with non-experienced drivers, and we think cars will slowly drive this weekend. We just hope that we can enjoy the sunshine and the cars do not smash too much because they are expensive, and mechanics do not want to work late nights! We need great fortune, so wish us it.

Blase you all,

Gather around children, time for a tale of epic rejectworthyness.



Straight from qualifying, I'm not liking Monaco. For some reason I can't get my line into Casino Square right, and either have to tip-toe around or hit the kerb and slide the back end. Either way, it's costing me six tenths a lap at least. That, coupled with being blocked by my own team-mate emerging from the pits at the start of one of my flying laps, sees me 7th on the grid, behind both Williams, both Ferraris, Alesi and Hakkinen. I then have 4 aborted attempts at the race because I keep knocking a wheel off somewhere.

So screw it, next one counts, if I have to pit for replacement wheels and burn from the stern, then that's what I have to do. Unless a load more people decide to start racing here, I won't finish worse than 3rd or 4th anyway.

Big one then. Off the start I go three abreast into St. Devote with Hakkinen and Alesi and emerge ahead of both. 5th place. Despite my problems with Casino, I hang on to Barrichello in 4th all the way to Potiers and then pull alongside in the tunnel, before outbraking him around the outside into the Nouvelle Chicane. 4th place.

Then it comes undone. I go into Tabac and my car just goes sideways. I either tagged a wall on the way in or was too early on the power. Either way, I end up pointing across the track. Barrichello gets past me okay, but Alesi and Hakkinen don't. They slow right down, and proceed to nudge me along the track towards the next chicane until I end up facing the wrong way and losing a front wing. I crank the car into reverse until I'm off the racing line and let everyone through. 22nd place. Into the pits for a new nose.

It takes me until lap 7 to catch the tail of the pack in the form of Fernando Alonso, and I dispense with him in the same place as I got Rubens. 21st place. By the start/finish line on the next lap, I can see Fisichella in the awful, awful Benetton. By Massanet, I'm on his tail - he's that slow. Unfortunately he brakes a lot earlier into Casino than I thought he would, earlier than Alonso did, so I run into to the back of him and push him into the wall at the apex. With a virtually stopped Benetton in front of me, I try and drive around the outside. Big mistake! Fisico resumes the racing line just in time to push me onto two wheels. And when I say he pushed me onto two wheels, I mean the car ended up like this:

Image

It stayed balanced on two wheels for about six seconds until Alonso ran into the back of me and put me back on 4, at the expense of another front wing on landing.

So into the pits again, but at least I'm not last because Alonso had to pit as well. I emerge behind the 4th placed car (which is now Ralf Schumacher) a lap down. Great, I'll just follow him around until we re-catch the pack and I can put Fisi into a wall for a bit of revenge. That lasts for two laps until my car lets go in Tabac again. I end up behind the 12th placed car, still a lap down. I unlap myself against a couple of mid-pack runners, re-pass Alonso and settle in for a few laps (I'm now up to lap 17) before I bin it into the Nouvelle chicane trying to unlap myself from Hakkinen (who's down to 9th because of the first lap incident at Tabac). 3rd new nosecone of the day. And I'm now two laps behind the lead. In the remaining few laps, I set the fastest lap of the race, and once again relegate Alonso to last, but crash on what was my last lap and have to haul the car across the line on 3 wheels.

I'll just go ahead and collect ROTR now, yeah?

I sometimes have that problem on F1C too, not sure of the track in whatever your playing but it drops away in F1C so if your on the gas as you go over the bump, you go sideways into the wall. I get round it by hitting the brakes for a split second as I go over the drop, it stops the car and allows me to get it turned into the right hander before the run down to Mirabeau.

I always have the same issue there...but my superior car control means I take it aggresive and can deal with the rear end stepping out with ease :P

PRESS RELEASE

DCTWRSAMF1SRT had their best race of the season to date, with lead driver Kostas being the fastest driver all weekend and for once securing a great result.

However the weekend did not start so brilliantly, after spending most of FP1 recreating crashes of previous years; firstly by copying Rosberg, Raikkonen and then Rosset, twice.

However a clean FP2 and FP3 meant enough data was collected to provide a good set-up for Quali - and boy did the new SRT1 fly.
Kostas was fastest in all three parts of qualifying - lapping in the mid 1:12s in Q1 & Q2, and then still managing a time in the low 1:13s in Q3 despite a car laden with fuel.

A slightly poor start almost compromised his race when Webber got alongside going into St Devote for the first time, however the young Scot held his nerve and hung the Williams out to dry, allowing the chronically slow Barichello a way past into 2nd.

It wasn't the last Kostas saw of the other drivers however; the Super Aguri's were slow as ever, with Sato finishing 2 laps down. Ide would have faced the same fate had his engine not expired on Lap 7, just as he had been lapped for the first time after being involved in an accident at the start with Nick Heidfeld (again).

DCTWRSAMF1SRT had secured a one-off deal with Red Bull for this race, including sponsorhip and a year old chassis, so to see one of the 'works' cars 3 laps down was a surprise. Indeed, Christian Klien was having a nightmare race. After crashing at St Devote during Q1, he qualified in 19th and was involved in the first corner wreck at the start. His car wasn't the same after, and made the front-runners lives absolute hell by holding everyone up. When Kostas came to lap him for a second time at La Rascasse by diving down the inside of the entry to said corner, Klien spun him out - but thankfully he carried enough speed to get round the corner itself, and the pit-entry meant he got away without a time consuming 3-point turn.

Apart from that incident and spinning Button's ailing Honda while he was trying to pit from the wrong side of the road, it was a rather uneventful race, and Kostas cruised home to win the race.

"It's taken a long time but we've finally done it!" said an ecstatic Kostas. "I quite like this track and I thought I'd have some decent pace in the race itself; but to be lapping in the mid 1:13s for the entire race is crazy, that's like qualifying pace! Also the tyres were very good, because there wasn't really a graining phase as I got in the last round, the wear was quite good even though towards the end of the stint they were quite worn out."

He continued, "For sure I'm wasn't so happy with the traffic, I was just down at the Red Bull garage happyslapping Klien with a bannana, but at least the Super Aguris didn't really get in my way, though on the last lap I came across both Ferraris, Montoya and Rosberg stuck in a train which looked like Sato was at the front of, and Trulli right behind him too I think."

Meanwhile team manger Alasdair Lindsay was surprisingly upbeat after the team's first victory; "About f***in time," he exclaimed. "Fur the first time we didnae have a f***in sh*tbox o' a car, an' that **** Kostas actually did awrite for once, so aye, it'll just be 6 whiskys for me the 'nite like."

With more performances like these, both DCTWRSAMF1SRT and Kostas could be fighting for podium places at the end of the season in both the WDC and WCCs.

Diary Of Scuderia Life Force Driver Klon

11/04/2010

Okay, so here I am at Monaco, home of the rich and the - more or less, if you look at Briatore - pretty ones with my rebuild Stewart. Qualifying day went quite surprising, I just did a 1:22-time and left the cockpit for playing Ocarina Of Time. After an hour or so, some FIA dudes order me to the press conference, I'm all like: "Why?", and they're all like "You're on pole, hurr durr." Ooookay, let's roll with that. Come race day and I'm actually standing beside Michael Schumacher. Cool stuff!

Anyhow, I decide to go against the major trend and go for a 1-Stop-Strategy with a very early stop. The strategy works perfectly, with both my competitors eliminating themselves in good fashion and me pulling away with crazy fast laps I can pit at Lap 8 and still remain in the lead. But unfortunately, my luck seem to have lost interest in the race, seeing as it's gone after a few laps. The spin in front of the tunnel wouldn't have been bad in itself, easily recover and go, but nooooo, De La Rosa, who may have been mad for being lapped at Lap 7, decided to crash my front wing off. Okay, no problem, just setting back once aaand - Son Of A *beep* ... my rear wing broke off, what the heck? My car's apparentely made of cheese, I think about taking a bite out of the engine cover.

So I get back to the pit and are at least happy that I don't have to conserve my tyres now. But after coming back on the track I notice that my car turns to the left automaticly. Something must be wrong with the Suspension. Cleary a reason to retire ... for 10-Year-Old girls that is. I push hard, especially after seeing that I'm only fifth now, behind Fisichella in the lead, Hill, Villeneuve and Irvine. The latter is dealed very quickly, whereas Villeneuve is so kind and chops his rear wing off for pitting to get out of my way, while my times get back on pre-accident niveau. Hill is the next opponent but it takes a bit of time to reach him. After a aggressive pass on the inside of Turn 6, I have P2 and realise that I have to take at least 1 second per lap off him to catch Fisico. Doesn't sound impossible so I try ... to hard, in the last lap I punt both of my wings off ... no time for pitting, it's all about survival now.

Obviously, I'm in no position to hunt Fisico down, but at least I have something of an advantage over Hill, which is already molten to nothing at the Nouvelle Chicane after a 90° spin. But it's De La Rosa again, he hits me with full force and puts my car in the right position while causing his retirement from a sixth place. He either hates me or is flirting with me. I find both ideas distressing. But now, with the car in the right position and the help of the pit lane speed limiter, defending against Hill is possible, so I can rescue my crippled car to the line, some 10 seconds of Fisichella, but still before Hill!

Well he's clocking 1:22s, and I'm on 1:28s (which is still competitive in race conditions, haven't run a full race though).

Nah, I'm also running with keyboard ... but I admit, I cheated a bit: I use awesome music to improve my times, "Rock Out" by Motörhead is worth at least half a second per lap :mrgreen:

Well he's clocking 1:22s, and I'm on 1:28s (which is still competitive in race conditions, haven't run a full race though).

I race with a keyboard, and my lap times were generally around 1:22 or just above 1:23, if I didn't make a big mistake during the lap.

2nd in the grid, behind Jacques Villeneuve who is unrealistically fast in this game. Though I could have easily beaten him if I only had gotten the last sector working: I was 0.8s ahead of my previous best time in the 2nd sector, but in the end was actually 0.1s slower than my best lap. Which was in turn 0.2s slower than Villeneuve's pole time, respectively. I also had quite a strange accident when battling for the pole position:
Image
(Yes, I managed to fall in the swimming pool!)

The race itself was a mess for pretty much anyone else but me. As you can see from the screenshots I've taken, more than one third of the field had retired after lap 2. It was actually pretty boring for me; after overtaking Villeneuve at the Hairpin, I could just start pulling gap to the others, lapping a few drivers already on laps 8 and 9. Then, on Lap 9 I pitted for the first time right on strategy. The difference to Villeneuve had already grown so big that I returned to the track first with about 1.5s to spare. After that it was back to normal, only with even more drivers to lap (although many had already retired by this point). On lap 11, Villeneuve collided with Gene who had spun after the Nouvelle Chicane. The collision destroyed Villeneuve's front wing and the whole rear end of Gene. Villeneuve had to pit, dropping him to 4th. Then on lap 13 Hill, who was 2nd at the time, violently collided with Badoer at Tabac (Minardi curse here?), which meant that Barrichello was now 2nd and Villeneuve 3rd. On lap 16 Villeneuve crashed all by himself in the same corner (St. Devote) and manner that Michael Schumacher retired in the early stages of the race, removing his rear wing (which automatically makes the AI cars to pit and retire in this game). So Barrichello was my only remaining threat. However, I also faced some trouble ahead. Takagi had spun at roughly the same place where Gene had (this was one of the many troublespots on the track for all of the AI cars), and when I came through the Nouvelle Chicane myself, I failed to brake early enough and hit Takagi's side pod. However I escaped from the crash unscatched (as well as Takagi did, considering his final position). But this made me lose my concentration, so in the Piscine corner I braked too late and hit the barrier, losing my front wing as a result (I failed this corner many times during the weekend, and now also in the race). Luckily enough, my next scheduled pit stop was only two laps away, so I just made it one lap earlier, on lap 17 instead of the originally planned lap 18 (driving one full lap without a front wing, as I had noticed in the practice sessions that missing it slows me down surprisingly little). At that point I already had about 50 seconds of time advantage over Barrichello, so pitting didn't change anything especially because he pitted at the same lap. Also at lap 17 De la Rosa retired from 5th after hitting his rear end in the outer barrier at Tabac (I could see that clearly because I was quite near to him, about to lap), losing his rear wing and then pitting & retiring. This was a very common cause for retirements throughout the race. After that, nothing exactly remarkable happened; on lap 21, I chrashed again, this time at the entry to La Rascasse, losing my front wing again. But this time I decided not to pit anymore, and instead drove the last two laps without a front wing (as written above, I didn't lose much time if I missed a front wing). So eventually, I won the race with only two other drivers on the same lap as I was (Barrichello and my team mate Zanardi).
Image

Here's the final results (final times and average speed censored).
Note: "Kesk." is short for "Keskeyttänyt", "Retired" in Finnish (all of this kind of AI retirements are caused by the car losing it's rear wing, which the AI never replaces but instead it goes to the pits and retires), "Jousitus" is "Suspension" (most likely caused by losing a wheel) and "Elektroniikka" is "Electronics" (Diniz stalled at the start).

The race winners time in mine was 30:55.5something. So, even if I had kept it on the road, I don't think I'd have threatened.

I can't understand how I won the race by 15 seconds, but still did a race time 30 seconds slower than kostas22?? I was doing mid-13's to mid-12's all race, nailed the pitstop, did everything!! Over 24 laps I'd have to do 1.11's !!! I could only do a few in qualifying trim... and I thought I was a Monaco specialist! Ah well, I won in Spain and I'm awful there!!

And I thought that I've never been good at Monaco in F1 Challenge... :)

Because I was going just as fast as that and did a 6.2s pit-stop...did you do a 1 stop or 2 stop strategy?
And how the hell did MinardiFan get within 3 seconds of me, I was absolutely on it during that race!

I did a one-stopper, and my stop was a 7.5 second jobby... my pace musn't have been as good as i thought really... I know my out lap wasn't too special, and there was some traffic at the end of the race...

Ah well... I'll just have to redress the issue in the next round!

For the record, I gave you IIDOTR for actually finishing, but ROTR for abandoning your GP4 season on 0 points.
