There's no need to apply for one. As far as the majority of us are concerned, if you qualify under the criteria, you automatically get on. Unless the supreme overlord has other ideas

If I remember correctly, he wasn't best pleased with the results of the Luxembourg Grand Prix, so that might cause him to deny Cannon one.

If he does, then he'll probably deny one for Seron, which means I'll be screwed when it comes to my reserve driver

Second Sunshine seat
Second Boxtel seat (Yeah, good luck trying to find someone willing to take it up )
Second Dofasco seat
Both Shonan seats
Second Simpson seat for Race 1

Markus Van de Schoot (pay driver) would like to offer his services for all of these drives.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't that put you over the 5 driver limit?

It wouldn't. In F?RWRS I currently only have Battani, Glotch, D Hamilton and Pascal.

Ah, ok. In that case I stand corrected. Man, I'm rubbish at keeping track of who owns who

Which is why we need to find a moderator who knows how to sticky threads on top, specifically this one.

There's some French guy by the name of Sebastian Groves that might fit the bill quite nicely. Problem is I don't know if that'll put Mr McClean over the limit or not.

Dave Simpson wrote:I'm thrilled to have Daniel on board for next season, even though in recent times he's been a bit... well, short tempered at times, he's still a 5 time F1 World Champion and will bring a lot of experience to our rookie team. The original plan for 2015 was that I'd be driving full-time for a final year before retiring from F1RWRS competition, but with the signing of Melrose as first driver alongside his protege Mitchell Macklin, I'm announcing my retirement will come after one final race at Adelaide, where Macklin will be serving his one race ban from the F2RWRS race at Indianapolis. I also can confirm that we'll not be using a naturally aspirated version of the P89 this season, because I think the speed advantage that engine held last season will completely be taken away without the turbo.

Nah, it wasn't the generator that was the problem. It's just the data that went into it in the first place was absolute rubbish

Well, the plan was that:

1. the official team name would be Foxdale Auto Racing Team with/in assoication with West Cliff Racing; and that
2. the team would be known as Foxdale in F1RWRS and as West Cliff in all other series.

But West Cliff Foxdale does sound fine to me, so that is what it shall be. For the Wiki writers and those who care about such things, it is a continuation of Foxdale, which themselves were a continuation of AMR and MAN. The remenants of West Cliff (the 2010/11 F1RWRS team) have been bought up by this team.

Aerond wrote:I have an annoucement to make regarding wet carsets: From next season, due to the difficulties of handling two completely different carsets as this year, the rain carset will be made as it follows:

-- An average BHP will be calculated, and teams above that average will see 50% of their power decreased respecting the average. For example: If average power is 600, and Team A is 700, then the power for Team A will be 650 for the wet carset.
-- No changes will be made to driver abilities regarding the dry carset. A driver will have same abilities in dry & wet conditions.
-- The Random Grip Range for every driver will be +1000 regarding the Dry Carset.

Dofasco Racing are interested in his services.

Chris Dagnall not happy with Tropico management:

Rumours are that Chris Dagnall isn´t too happy with Tropico management. The reason behind would be that Dagnall would be seeking for a more competitive pay driver than Darren Older Jr to partner Nathan Scott. He was quoted as saying to a Russian newspaper: "The situation with Nathan is not ideal. We know Tropico will do a big effort to build a car capable of qualifying, but what´s the point if both drivers don´t deliver?". Chris Dagnall was unavailable to comment on this words.

I have nothing against James Davies and would normally prefer him but since I must 'hurry up', I chose the easiest way. Seriously, I want to keep my team but it is not my fault that recently I have been lacking the time to come here.

I think the F1RWRS commissioner should look very closely at his actions.
