Grand Prix Rejects

I'm keeping the 1st page updated to fill in the gaps and make it clear where the spare seats are; I hope that the points system is alright for everyone, I think it provides a close level of competition whilst rewarding the winner.

no drivers confirmed yet, but one of the two seats is reserved for someone who doesn't own a team.

What numbers are you having?

Maybe we should have some points for qualifying, otherwise the strong qualifying engine will mainly be a punishment for those that arrive to late to get a better one.

Aye, I originally thought about a point for pole but I wasn't too sure about it.

Maybe 3 points for 1st, 2 for 2nd and 1 for 3rd?

i'll take 5 and 6

Tõnu Pykälistö is Estonian, not Finnish.

Aeroracing Junior Engineering will enter this championship, giving young drivers and engineers the chance to prove themselves.

I'll take numbers 16 and 17, with the drivers being Italian Giuseppe Colombo (17) and Argentinian Juan Manuel Scalabroni (16).

Well, since AdrianSutil, kostas and Phoenix seem to disagree with my proposal in the other thread, ZimSport will enter. However, they will compete as Rosenforth Engineering, and will wait to announce their drivers. I will take #26 and #27.

What the hell... yeah, it's probably the time to go to bed if I see the Finnish flag as the Estonian one. I blame the name, Tõnu is about as Estonian as you can get (so he's likely half-Estonian, right?).

Maybe we can say he has an Estonian mother who is overbearing and demanded her son have an Estonian name even though he was born in Turku

Any Vacant spots left, Red Bull World Race Team is interested in this.

Seeing as we've got 12/13 teams filled, I'll post the engine stats tomorrow morning.

Also, I'll draft up a calendar as well...I'll probably stick to the circuits already on the game for convenience.

Is there a grid tool, so I could implement a reversed section of the grid for a sprint race?

@Eurobrun: Yeah, there's one slot left - want me to put you down for it?

Jah, ma arvan et see on parim lahendus.

Right, I believe that's enough foreign languages for today.

Yes, that would be good.

One of them can get a drive, for my other car, i prefer a driver from a different forummember(i will not use my own drivers here, as i can't be bothered to think of a name right now)

Both are interested at the position, with Jalmerson being the most willing to take the se

I would advise against Ouedamiagogo. We received an application from him via email, claiming he had several million dollars he could transfer to our bank account. Apparently his father is a deceased Burkina Faso dignitary and he has inherited his fortune. But, something smelled fishy and we elected to go with Ekdal instead.

Ouedamiagogo has funds from several state enterprises from Burkina Faso (his father worked as a high-level employee within country's government). Even in France people see it as 'fishy', but as his team bosses said 'who cares if the cash goes at our pockets and not to others' (or something like that)

And ok, Jalmerson accepts and will drive for your team

The two RBWRT cars will be taken by Spaniard Miguel Silva and Japanese driver Kastazumo Nakaya. Silva is 18 and Nakaya is 22.

I probably failed massively on the spelling of the names

Nakaya doesn't satisfy the 21 and under criteria...apologies

I obviously can't read. Please reduce his age to 19.

Why not be a proper feeder series and support F1RWRS races? Even if it's just the European rounds.

Mestach will accept Roter Baron's offer.

Blistering Bathplug of bother!,I just exit the forum for school and I return to find that a new series has started with all teams filled!Ah,never mind. Let me put down two drivers that anyone can snap up.

Berhman F. Reith is German in nationality,but spent most of his life in England.At 13 years of age,he might be too young to progress up the ranks,but is one promising driver in cadet kart level.

Nestra Aya is the younger brother of Dimitri Aya,current owner of Pan-Asia Rally Team.Like his brother,he participated in rally events in the start of his career,but made the switch to open-wheel cars last year.He did not do that well,but sponsors of Pan-Asia Rally Team have come to back him up,giving him a status of a pay-driver at just 19 years of age.

V-Sport has still both seats open, so if anyone is interested, join in the fun.

Williams Junior Team

Drivers:
Jerry De Boer (USA) (18)
Hwok Kwol-Cho (ROK) (20)

Kingfisher has a free spot. Roll up, roll up!!

DMR are on the lookout for a second driver. First come, first served, so get in quick!

Rosenforth are looking for a couple of drivers, preferably Australian or British.

Berhman Reith is interested in joining V-Sport,and Nestra Aya just wants to get into any team,even if it involves buying his way in...

Reith is signed, second driver under consideration.

19 year old Matt Grove is interested in a drive. He is from Australia.

Rosenforth are interested in signing him.

He's signed then.

Sorry AdrianSutil, but I decided to go on a first come first serve basis.

Check the first post, there's a few drivers who don't have seats yet...

==ENGINES==
Q=Qualifying Performance, R=Race Performance
Volkswagen– 240Q, 230R (Max 4 teams)
Toyota (TOM'S prepared) – 230Q, 240R (Max 4 teams)
Renault (Mecachrome prepared) – 235Q, 235R (Max 5 teams)

All are 2.0L L4 DOHC units.

Of course, first come first served

I'll take the TOM'S engine

Projekt Roter Baron has decided to run with the Toyota engine, as one of their Volks.Racing cars does.

Good Call Racing will also take the TOM's engine
