F3RWRS - Yet another feeder series

[Shizuka]

Off topic, does this mean my hopes of a HRT drive in the future are gone.

Most certainly not, rather this is so I don't forget about Hamilton when Liquor inevitably gets sacked mid season

BWAHAHAAHAH! I'm George Liquor, American!

Allright because Erik Courbois from Belgian Kongo (Congo DR) (see Eastcars) is willing to take up the fight to the recent stream of Nigerian talents. Having driven a lot of Land Rovers in the jungle, he feels that he has the necessairy qualities to make it into car racing, as he knows for sure that the oppositions can't possibly be faster than leopards. Being sponsored by his son's Gold mine, he has the necessairy funds.

I would be interested in using the academy but I fear that I am taking too much space in the series with what would be six characters when I enter another one into the academy.

Samora Mondlane, a very promising 18 year old Mozambican (yes, Africa is coming in force into F3RWRS), who is not yet sponsored but have the backing up of Porto Wine Motorsport, would like to join the F3RWRS academy.

Marin Anciu, a 16 year old Romanian, would also like to join the academy. He is currently sponsored by Banca Transilvania.

Macedonia Tourism wants to announce that they'll enter the F3RWRS Academy with Macedonia's latest racing talent - 16-year-old Branko Ristic.
Also, unofficially backed by Aegean Airlines, Greek driver Fotis Iordanou also expressed his interest in participating in this series.

TMLW has just told me (I would let him say it himself but this is my iPad and he's too lazy ) that the age limit for F3RWRS drivers in 35 and he's NOT changing it under any circumstances.

[AdrianSutil]

No harm in adding an academy driver to our ranks.

MA-Racing enter academy.

Mr.Alexander has announced 16 year-old Englishman Harry Austin will enter the academy, further strengthening Mitie Aviation's youth development, although the young lad has very little racing experience. "He started off with us two years ago, coming to the races in F3 to watch his cousin Steven (Mackintosh). Last year he did work experience for us and we paid for him to enter a few karting events. He's a good lad, so we will see what he can do. Apart from Steven, whose only a part-time driver, we don't have another English driver, so this helps."

F3RWRS Pre-Season Test #1 - Snetterton

While the F1RWRS and F2RWRS teams were in Spain, the F3RWRS was in Britain, for the first test session of the F3RWRS. The drivers left the track today still not knowing what these cars were like in the dry, because the rain came down overnight, and refused to go away. Most of the drivers showed some real skill, particularly Terry Hawkin, Eric Swerts and Jack Christopherson Jr, who didn't go off once all day. There were no big accidents, although a few drivers lost wings at the final chicane after getting on the throttle too early.

El Jonan (in a private conversation with El Txori):

What´s uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup. Listen, listen, listen. We have to que-pin-que-pan to go as fast as Vin Diesel in Fast & Furious, do you understand???

[AndreaModa]

Well, I've heard the results from the test, and I'm absolutely delighted for both Terry and Eric, 1st and 3rd is a superb start to the testing schedule, and hopefully this form will continue into the start of the season. I think both young men should do very well this year, and the JR-300 car is shaping to be a great package.

What can I say? Top of the timesheets by over a second, I'm delighted with that! I still think there's a bit more to come from the car yet, but it feels great and handles beautifully. I can't wait to get out there again now!

[Shizuka]

Shonan Junior is better than Shonan DMS.

Well, bathplug! At least Harmsky and Sokolov have a chance at scoring points...

[SuperAguri]

Rain, it should be banned, how can Akinjide Ezerioha show his skill in the wet when Nigeria is quite dry and they do not have races in America in the rain jus in case their feet get wet. It is a crime! However we have good news as we have signed the Japanese 17 year old Karting sensation, Yuka Katayama the younger sister of the very talented Shinobu Katayama. She knows what a wet track is like.

[Pointrox]

Today I had great success - I learned fast Snetterton circuit so I can quickly get to know the characteristics of the car, and configure it according to my preferences. True, it rained heavily all day and the track was slippery, but not stopped me from driving my lap on the limit. May the next day brought an even greater progress.

[FMecha]

TMLW I already provided numbers for Team Asia in my entry post.

It's all in the Christopherson DNA, that's why i'm so quick. Same reason HWNSNBM was so great.

F3RWRS Driver To Rise Up?

According to the lastest rumours going around the F3RWRS paddock, one of the young drivers is rumoured to make a quick jump to the F1RWRS series. These rumours say that the German council behind Tropico Grand Prix powered by CR Motorsport is not pleased with Darren Older Jr.'s performance at the latest tests, so the Brit might find himself replaced quite soon, if he doesn't get it together and beats Miko Fäkkinen soon.

However, there were no names talked about, although it is very obvious, that said person would have to bring copious amounts of sponsorship to get said seat. People who could bring up this sponsorship, amongst others, are Akinjide Ezerioha, Jean-Vincent Albertini or Iulian Pitea. We will give you further information as we recieve them.

[RonDenisDeletraz]

Hamilton on 10th. "I guess I am pleased with this, but I hope to do better in Adelaide as it is my home race".

Red Bull Team Jagermeister team boss Chris Forbes. "20th is a good result for Mika, but I was hoping Deiter would be higher up".

New rule for F3RWRS races
Due to the large entry list for the first year of the F3RWRS, it has been announced that at each round, the number of starters will decrease for each race, to keep grid sizes respectable. It is understood that for the first race of each weekend, all 36 cars will start, but 6 lowest placed cars in the race will be parked for the remainder of the weekend, leaving 30 cars for the reverse grid race 2. Again, the 6 last placed cars will be removed, which places an emphasis on the faster cars which will start at the back of the grid moving forward. This will leave 24 cars to start the third race of the weekend. It was also announced that one-off entries for the season ending Surfers SuperPrix are now being accepted. They will not be able to score championship points. Full time F3RWRS teams can enter a car, unless they already have three full time drivers.

[Klon]

The F3RWRS driver limitations count for the Surfers' SuperPrix as well, don't they?

[TomWazzleshaw]

The F3RWRS driver limitations count for the Surfers' SuperPrix as well, don't they?

The Surfers SuperPrix is just the one race. Therefore I'ld assume the limits don't count.

[Pointrox]

I try to maintain good pace but I have a fight with my car. Suzuki PF-14 is difficult car to drive, and in addition is very understeer.
Eastern Creek is a beautiful track, but also quite difficult and demanding technical preparation of the driver and set the car well.
As for new arrangements, I think that it might somehow distort results and unnecessarily reduce number of drivers from race to race.

[AndreaModa]

Again, both drivers are continuing to impress me, both are in the top 10, and I feel both they and the JR-300 are only getting better. I don't want to put pressure on them but I'm expecting big things from both of them as I'll have two seats in the F2RWRS for 2015 that they could potentially step into should they do well.

The car continues to go well, after that test I have a few pointers for the engineers to improve the car, seeing as it was our first proper run in the dry, so I think I can get even more out of the car in the future!

Round 1 - Round of Australia - Adelaide
Qualifying

The first time the cars were out on track was with a little bit of rain, but it quickly dried up. Michael Cameron took the first pole of the series by setting a brilliant time in the final seconds, with David Neuberg second and Yuka Katayama a stunning third. The only incident of note was Jiménez spinning at the last corner on the wet track, and there was some doubt over whether the yellows were out before Judd McAllister and Tomo Kazama came past on flyers. Both were guilty, and had their (at the time) fastest laps deleted. A slightly flawed judgement, because Kazama hadn't set a time yet, and McAllister went three seconds faster at the end of the session.

DNF: David Neuberg (MA-Junior): Accident (L1)
Fastest lap: Michael Cameron (1:36.39)

Cameron simply drove away from the field, and never even looked like being caught. He was helped by David Neuberg spinning into the fence at the chicane, and he became the first driver eliminated from the round. Christopherson Jr drove brilliantly to second, and Jason Hamilton managed to hold off Hawkin for third. The other retirements were Joe Harmsky and Antonio Reyna-Sanchez, who both out-braked themselves at turn 9. The other three drivers eliminated were Hendra Naufal, Wojciech Cieslar and José Maria Cabral, who weren't quite quick enough to challenge anyone else (except for Ezerioha, who got lucky). This means Ezerioha will start race 2 from pole and Moyenmoutier will be alongside him.

[Warren Hughes]

I'm so proud of my little brother. This is a fantastic start to the season for the whole team, and one that I hope we can really build on as the year progresses.

What a perfect race, and a perfect day! The fact that Gary is last on the grid for the F1RWRS race just makes it better!!

Now now, don't get carried away, young 'un! Only one of us is a world champion so far.

Fastest lap: Jack Christopherson Jr (1:35.48)

Predictably, the reverse-grid caused a lot of problems as the faster cars tried to move through the slower ones. And it was much closer than race 1, especially when you consider that the top 13 were separated by less than 10 seconds. In the end, Jean-Vincent Albertini took the win, with a pass on Zayas at turn 9. Zayas would lose second at the last corner to Lamberigts as well. Most of the incidents were just people being stupid, for example Hillary King hitting the kerb at turn 8, and catapulting into Swerts and Donegro. On lap two a few driver learned the hard way that three-wide into the chicane doesn't work, and just like that everyone else was guaranteed to get into race 3. A few other incidents caused more DNFs and ruined a few races.

Both Shonans retired on Lap 5! Hilarious.

The first race was weak - I started from 25th place and tried to break away. I got stuck behind Alberto Donegro and I could not catch him any way, so I decided to finish behind him.
The second race was much better - I went from good position and quickly climbed. Dorien Lamberigts pushed hard throughout the race distance, but I not subjected to the pressure and defended the position to the end.
I'm very glad I managed to win in only my second race, also with so many drivers. I look forward to the third race.

Well, that's DBTMOTR for me.

Well, that is slightly reject driving from our drivers, specially from José Maria Cabral. I hope that he gets on top of it and improves significantly. I am not known for my patience specially after having a couple of ports, which I frequently do. Let's hope that race 3 brings us something that we can build upon... I would hate to ruin my drivers career in motorsport so soon into their lives...

I'm sorry, Hillary, but you've been pathetic today. My son has shown you the way all around, and he wasn't particularly brilliant today.

Don't be so harsh on me, boss, I have abandonment issues dating as far back as my childhood... sniff.

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about... a couple more showings like this and you'll indeed have abandonment issues.

Drink more Red Bull and you'll imrpove soon, it gives you wings and the urging necessity to raise your index finger.
