Grand Prix Rejects

Stramala [kostas22] wrote:It is interesting. Will McGovern's current stats carry over to F1RWRS should eventually get a reject license? I may have inadvertently gained a useful asset here.
Also, Aerond, don't be afraid to delve into Voeckler's performance file and make him even worse. If anything, I insist that you do

Next time you do a test, don't forget to reward Lamberigts for winning a F2RWRS-race in a Lancia-powered car! If you want me to turn me into your B-team, you'll have to at least pretend you care about me

If they don't make the grid again, they'd certainly be chief contenders, but right now I think Daniel Melrose and Ron Mignolet should still be considered the favourites for now.

Indeed it is. Now excuse me while I post about your F2RWRS driver being shite. Again.

For the record, my own F2RWRS driver is even more s**te.

Well, maybe we can do this, but, will he be a pay driver or standard driver? I am guessing the latter...

For now? Once he tests he's locked into a driver type. With the exception of if you picked him as a pay-driver and then he scored 10 points.

Hm, i thought this started from the moment he entered a race.

Ah, I stopped paying attention the minute the two MRTs blew the feature race qualifying at South City. And can someone fill me in on what exactly Nicolas has achieved in the last two races?

exactly nothing. Oh, and a critical lack of speed in the wet (as well as Neuberg, may I add, except that Neuberg almost destroyed Stig's race on the final lap at Spa)

And yet Spencer was even worse than BOTH of them in the wet. How that works is beyond me.

And thanks for giving me an excuse to make the next two F2RWRS races wet, which means it'll be twice as chaotic and guaranteed to have someone given a million year ban at the end of it

Wizzie wrote:Holy crap, I'm freaking psychic

Anyway, may I recommend one Jean-Vincent Albertini to any midfield team looking for a quick pay-driver? The guy's freaking amazing around street courses and he's recently qualified for a Reject License thanks to his win in Germany. His qualifying pace may be a bit on-again, off-again at times but his relentless race pace and consistency more than makes up for it. Only problem is I have no idea who his manager is but he really deserves a F1RWRS gig somewhere.

Please see past the fact that, fundamentally, it's shite.

Barii Mori wrote:A race I was doing so well, I had 2nd in the bag and if The Stig had a problem then it would have been an easy win for me. The Yamaha engineers packed up and caught the first plane home after the engine blew up as that would have been a good thing as I would have punched their lights out. Steele massively underperformed today and did not impress in the slightess, he is on very thin ice.

Rosco Vantini wrote:Another race and more points. However the car underperformed as I should have been on the podium and not just in the points as a good strong 2nd place would have put me within spitting distance of Mark Dagnall. Sammy Jones apologised to me and has said the next race I will have a top car. I was not 'appy to be behind a woman drive who got put in her place by her male team mate.

Prince Falik wrote:Well done, well done, well done. A podium was a great result, although Katayama should have tried harder as a double podium would have been a fantastic result rather then just a great one.

Barii Mori wrote:I would like to announce that we have signed F2RWRS leader Tomo Kazama to be the equal number one driver for Kamaha for the 2016 and 2017 seasons. This does mean I will be retiring but I will still be one of the reserve drivers just in case there are issues. As part of the deal we have had to sign Du Lei for the last 5 races and it does mean that out long association with Nicolas Steele has ended. We do thank Nicolas for some great results last season but he will be the first to admit that this season he has been poor with some comical driving errors. We wish him well for the future.

If you ever think of expanding into a few articles, I'd love to write some. Please don't take it like I'm jumping into your thing, but I wouldn't mind helping out if you did. I do something similar for the GPGSL at grandprixgames.org so I'm no stranger to this sort of thing...[/shamelessplug]

Stramala [kostas22] wrote:I almost started something similar a few years back, but couldn't be arsed putting the proper effort. Let's see if you lot make a better fist of it than I ever did.

Nicolas Steele wrote:With the recent news of my sacking, I announce of a sabbatical that is to be taken from here to the end of the season. I will need the time to refocus on my future aspects of my career. I thank the Kamaha team for supporting me for the last three seasons, but I felt my firing was not deserved as the car had serious mechanical issues which were never addressed by engine manufacturer Yamaha.

The Fox wrote:The team is very pleased that Shinobu Katayama has decided to race for us in Italy. Even if she decides not to accept our generous offer for 2016, she will certainly benefit by getting more credits for her prize money, which will certainly be of a benefit to whoever she signs for. As for Mirko, we are happy to announce that he has been offered a contract for the 2016 season. This, like Shinobu's contract, is a very generous offer.
