I better start paying an interest in this, as I just realised one of my drivers was involved. Who's running Team Switzerland?

I'm making very slow progress on the Division B highlights video (which will be up soon) and I've been busy with exams of late. I will have some time tonight, so qualifying will be up by today.

Qualifying - Division C

With twenty minutes left to spare, here are the results for the Division C qualifying. Rhys Davies takes pole by just 0.010 seconds over Mark Dagnall. The Iceman will start third, Button is fourth and Frank Zimmer starts in fifth. Excellent qualifying performances from Schiller and Verstappen, as well.

When's the race results going to be published?

tristan1117 · Post by **tristan1117** » 15 Mar 2013, 16:35

Fastest Lap: Kimi Raikkonen - 1:27.464

Pole: Rhys Davies 1:25.028

Leaders:
Rhys Davies: 1-19
Sebastien Buemi: 20-21
Rhys Davies: 22-

Review:
Back to the old system of positives and negatives for this review. Rhys Davies dominated a generally dull race at Silverstone. UK 1 missed a couple chances but came away with a good points haul.

Positives:
Rhys Davies: An almost flawless drive from Rhys Davies today. He was pressured a bit by Raikkonen in the early stages of the race but held him off easily. Other than that, Davies cruised home for an easy victory. Davies had a disappointing late-season run in the F1RWRS season but he was definitely on top form in this one. Australia 2 comes out of this one with a good lead in the division thanks to a good drive from Frank Zimmer.

Kimi Raikkonen: Raikkonen was effective and set fastest lap of the race, but he came well short of a victory. If he had been able to really challenge Davies and overtake in the early part of the race, the result may have been different. Second place is still solid and Finland has been put in good position to advance into the next stages.

Jenson Button and Ashley Watkinson: UK 1 had a mixed race. Shedden and Dagnall were both taken out early with mechanical troubles but Button and Watkinson were both excellent. Button was out in front of Raikkonen for much of the race but he couldn't hold on to second place as the race wore on. Watkinson finished in the top five and was mostly anonymous for the entire race.

Marc Goossens: Goossens was able to recover the points that de Bock lost late in the race with a confident sixth place finish.

Sebastien Buemi: Buemi was on track to being driver of the race but an engine failure took him out of a certain fifth place finish for Switzerland. Schiller managed to score some points, but Switzerland will face an uphill struggle in their attempt to make it into the next round.

Sergio Perez: Mexico only has two cars and with Galaz DNQing, it was up to Perez to score some points. Perez proved he was up to the task and was running in the top six when his car stopped with a water leak with five laps to go.

Negatives:
Honda engines: Five more failures to chalk on the board. Not a good representation of their engine program. They win Reject of the Race for this round.

Mark Dagnall: Dagnall didn't qualify well and showed very little pace during the race. He was only sixth when he retired. For the standards of a three-time champ, this was not a race to remember.

European Microstates: They were nowhere to be found for the entire race. Bosi and Garfunkel were mediocre and Albertini suffered an engine failure.

Jari Kekkonen and Nick Nurmester: Bottas and Raikkonen obliterated Kekkonen and Nurmester over the course of the weekend (Bottas had an engine problem while running in the points with five laps to go). Kekkonen had an embarrassing spin which broke his front suspension early in the race and finished in dead last. Nurmester was off the pace for much of the race.

It is. There's one bonus point each for pole and fastest lap.

Van der Maeyede is responsible for all of Kingfisher's top 10 qualifications in F3RWRS and has pulled the struggling F2 Kingifsher out of Pre qualifying regularly.

I'll give both a chance then, to see who's really the best.

To be fair though, Kingfisher's F3RWRS car is pretty crap.

Most of the time, MVDM was unlucky in the races (when he wasn't being crap). He was denied great results by others incompetence. Also, compare MVDM's qualifying stats in both series compared to his teammates and tell me he's not fast :lol:

As he DNQ'd in this race, i stand by my decision that i picked the wrong out of the two. I mean, he got outqualified by Simon Garfünkel of all people :roll:

Qualifying - Division D

I know the momentum for this series has died completely, but here we are. Alonso sticks the lead Spanish car on pole position and will share the front row with the sushi chef's son. McAllister and Petrov will line up in the second row. Impressive performances from Gene, Travesen, Walik and Bruno Senna.

Agyemang-Badu is, unlike Prince Walik, not a prince. And our financial future is secure thanks to the Angolese investors. Your driver, with non-african sponsors, is not worthy the support of our proud continent.
And why is the black flag the DSQ-flag? This is racist! We demand the organisation will change this to a pink flag!

Exactly, we Africans fully encourage homophobia and sexism, as we believe homosexuality is unnatural, and men are meant to be the dominating gender. This is how nature made us, and unlike other continents, we love and respect the natural things in life! Racism however is not natural, but something typical for the white race!

Edit: this is not my actual opinion. (before somebody takes this serious)

Division D: Race
Donington Park, 64 laps, Dry but Cloudy

Review:
The race turned out to be a Spanish walkover, but not in favor of Fernando Alonso. Instead, it was Phoenix McAllister who came across the line in first for his first major win since the 2012 F1RWRS Belgian Grand Prix. Fernando Alonso limped home with just one point for pole position after two disastrous mid-race spins. This review will be done nation-by-nation.

Brazil: Raul Souto Maior and Jalmerson da Cunha managed to take home points for Brazil, drastically outpacing Nelson Piquet Jr. and Bruno Senna in the process. Piquet Jr. was involved in a first lap collision with Sato and never recovered. Senna hung around the midfield before dropping out with a brake problem. They will need to step up their game if they want Brazil to advance from the group.

Denmark: Denmark was poised to be the surprise of the day as Paul Travesen was running in a brilliant fifth place for half of the race. Unfortunately, he spun off and broke his front wing, leaving him in sixteenth. Jan Magnussen held on to score two points for Denmark, however.

Russia: Another missed opportunity here. Vitaly Petrov was running in fourth place when his transmission gave out on Lap 40. Aleshin prevented a total Russian collapse and finished in a brilliant fifth. Pasitchnjuk and Buyvolov were slow and ineffectual. Pasitchnjuk
received a reprimand for blocking Fernando Alonso during the race.

Japan 1: Oh what might have been for the Japan 1 team. Kamui Kobayashi overtook Alonso on the first lap of the race and was well-positioned to win until his engine failed on Lap 8. Takuma Sato was taken out by Piquet Jr. on the first lap and Hagane Shizuka spun off (with Alonso following him into the gravel just after) while in the points. Hansuke Shioya was the only driver to score points for Japan 1 today, a result they will certainly regret in the future.

USA 2: The second American team has to be encouraged by their performance at Donington. Dave Anderson was spectacular, notching a top-five finish after a consistent drive. Marco Andretti also ran well but was the victim of a cruel transmission failure on Lap 35.

Portugal: Daniel Martins was definitely the IIDOTR of the weekend after making it onto the podium for Portugal, securing an all-Iberian top three. Martins drove flawlessly and was close to passing Gene in the final stages of the race. Jose Maria Cabral and Monteiro both languished outside of the points (Monteiro's car halted with a puncture on the final lap of the race).

Pan-Africa: Pan-Africa performed better than expected with Ricardo Teixeira finishing in a competent sixth place, mainly due to attrition. Prince Walik was not as successful.

Austria: Marko Janstcher retired early on with a puncture, leaving Alexander Wurz as Austria's lone car in the race. Wurz was in good position to score when he was forced into the pits on Lap 56 with a throttle problem. The wily Austrian salvaged a point by putting on fresh tyres and setting the fastest lap of the race, a 1:17.023! Nothing suspicious, right? Incorrect. If you add the individual numbers of 1:17.203 (1+1+7+2+3) and 1049 (1+0+4+9), you get the same answer. 14. Clearly, Wurz was transmitting a message in code to his loyal followers in the world, or perhaps to his wife.

Spain: Well, let's get this one out of the way. Reject of the Race goes to Fernando Alonso, for throwing away a near-certain victory on Lap 34. Alonso was one-stopping and held a twenty second lead on Phoenix McAllister when he threw the car off the circuit! He joined Hagane Shizuka in the gravel trap, as the Japanese driver had spun off at the exact same spot just before. This left Phoenix McAllister with an easy win, but robbed Spain of a certain 1-2-3 finish. Alonso later spun again on Lap 47. Marc Gene proved the doubters wrong with an admirable second place finish. Diego Alvarez Torrente will have to wait until next time.

Pole: Fernando Alonso
Leaders:
Kamui Kobayashi: 1-7
Fernando Alonso: 8-33
Hagane Shizuka: 34-35
Phoenix McAllister: 36-43
Marc Gene: 44
Phoenix McAllister: 45-
FL: Alexander Wurz - 1:17.023
Winner: Phoenix McAllister

SeedStriker · Post by **SeedStriker** » 13 Apr 2013, 14:05

Such a great race for team Spain. Marc Gene in particular was celebrating like he had become world champion! This is retribution for a hard working man. On the other hand, Fernando is still wondering what went wrong. Let's say that his diva attitude is not hepling his cause right now...
