Daniel Melrose wrote:I wouldn't talk either because you're stuck in pre-qualifying hell as well. Oh wait, so am I. Let's just call it a draw and head down to the pub to see Jones and McAllister beat the living crap out of each other.

I did lose my front wing near the start of the race, not due to my error but I had damaged suspension as well so I was nursing the car home, although I did finish a lap down in 13th, I think I did very well considering. Still we have shown a lot of promise so next race we shall score a hatful of points.

However the sooner these stupid drivers say this then the sooner we can fix the car and move forward. I am unhappy as the team seem to want to spend near nothing on the car, when a few hundred thousand here and a few hundred thousand there and we could have one of the best cars in the field.

I'm reporting this offence to Daniel Prieto and getting you banned. Jesus, look at him, only a month or so with Jones and look what the kid has turned out... No wonder Alasdair Lindsay got so angry so frequently when he was partnering Jones, it must have been a royal pain in the nuts. Wait until me and everyone Jones has offended take on him, then he will learn not to trash-talk so gratuitously. And Vantini should begin learning that lesson too.

Autosport wrote:Jones moves to counter sexist remarks made by Vantini

Sammy Jones has moved quickly to refute allegations made by his teammate Rosco Vantini about Pippa Mann during last weekend's Australian Grand Prix. Vantini was on record making sexist remarks about the Aeroracing driver after the two tangled during the race, putting both cars out. Jones, who blamed Aeroracing boss Phoenix McAllister for engineering the incident to take one of his cars out, has now moved to correct his driver's comments.

"Rosco is a young lad, he's full of energy and after the incident at Bathurst, he over-stepped the mark. I've had a strong conversation with him, and he realises the potential consequences of his actions and as such he will in the near future issue a full apology to Pippa Mann for his remarks. His inexperience in the public domain is what is partly to blame for this, combined with a reaction that was made in the heat of the moment. In the time since he made his comments he's been able to reflect on them and now regrets them deeply."

Jones however would refuse to withdraw his own remarks about McAllister,

"I stand by my initial comments, Phoenix needs to understand when to accept that he's gone to far, and I just don't think he's able to. Aeroracing have a brilliant car this year, they've turned things around from the old Team Phoenix, and instead of getting caught up in rival teams' performances, they should be focusing on extracting as much as they can out of their car. Pippa is a former champion, and I've no doubt she's going to give us a good run for our money this year, it's unfortunate that she has to be caught up in this mess. I suggest to Phoenix that he goes and calms down, and forgets about Jones Racing for the next few races."

The Fox wrote:I wouldn't mind this squabbling if the team wasn't at risk of being taken out. With Aeroracing and Jones at about equal pace, we are at risk of being involved in their (at this point) inevitable collisions. I ask that Mr Jones and Mr McAllister would not crash into us, either directly or indirectly, so that I can call this disagreement logical. Otherwise, I have a protest form sitting at my office if my cars get involved, but if they do not get involved, it stays.

Mad uncle Melrose decided to get off his lazy arse and do some work for once. As a result, the entire championship standings are now up on the wiki. Interestingly enough, if the Pre-Q reshuffle were to take place now, Tropico, Revolution and Boxtel would all escape permanently at the expense of Prospec, Aeroracing and Kamaha(!).

I 'ould like to apologise to Pippa Mann and to all the female drivers in F1RWRS for my remarks I made after the Australian Grand Prix. I realise now that they were offensive and I deeply regret saying them. The remarks ere made by myself and Jones Racing do not condone my remarks, I sincerely apologise to Sammy Jones and Jones Racing for my remarks, I am sorry if I hurt the team in any way, I am very 'appy to drive for such a great team.

I realise that Pippa Mann, Shinobu Katayama, Poppy Whitechapel, Du Lei, Marie Simon and Kay Lon are all talented female drivers, matching at least Yuji Ide, Esteban Tuero, Paul Belmondo, Giovanni Roda or Francois Albertini. I will not be answering any questions. Thank you.

I have posted a message in the he Formula 1 Rejects Teams Association (F1RTA) Thread this

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=4650&start=1080#p185778

Which is asking Aerond if we can test at a circuit or country that has just held a race but before the next race. So more teams have flexibility in testing and hopefully allow more teams to test together.

Go read and comment and hopefully supoprt the motion!

Nicolas Steele, Jesus Plaza, Barii Mori, Bob Sampson and Victoria Desai will be testing and Tatsuya Kahama and Simon Redman will be there too.

That test can´t happen since testing is not allowed at Championship venues before a race, so either move it to another venue or make it happen after the British GP.

There is not anything in the F1RWRS rules that states this can not happen... only that we are not allowed to run tests at temporary circuits, nothing about Championship race tracks being off limits in any part of the official rules that are on the wiki... http://f1alternate.wikkii.com/wiki/Form ... vate_Tests although I am sure a 6.2.9 will appear as you answer :lol:

Yes, but I´m extending the Testing rules (since there aren´t enough details) so it can´t happen. Just to add a little bit of realism, not that I have anything against Kamaha. I´m sure rival teams wouldn´t see with good eyes team testing at championship venues before races happen.

PS: Already edited the rules :lol:

No, but it gives experience points to your drivers. You can also check updates (as you can check your car with or without the latest updates), the pace of your test drivers or run a race simulation to know the race pace of your car or check the reliability.

Well, since I have 10 spare credits I don't know how to use, I might as well arrange a test at Silverstone one day and give Tanner Jason and Raul Souto Maior a go. Anyone else that would be interested?

No, but it gives experience points to your drivers. You can also check updates (as you can check your car with or without the latest updates), the pace of your test drivers or run a race simulation to know the race pace of your car or check the reliability.


Well, since I have 10 spare credits I don't know how to use, I might as well arrange a test at Silverstone one day and give Tanner Jason and Raul Souto Maior a go. Anyone else that would be interested?

Unless JLD has something against it, Nick Nurmester would like to have a go. He might even bring in a bit of money.

Extra money, eh? I like that. How many drivers can you run at a test session anyway?

Eight maximum. Might want to read up on these;

F1RWRS Private Testing Rules (Section 6.2) wrote:6.2.1 As of 2015, teams can now organise their own private tests
6.2.2 Up to fourteen (14) teams or twenty eight (28) drivers can participate in these tests
6.2.3 Teams can test anything during the test, as long as it doesn't contravene other regulations
6.2.4 Teams can run up to eight (8) drivers each during a private test
6.2.5 Of these eight drivers, a maximum of five (5) drivers can be pay drivers
6.2.6 Each pay driver that does not already have a race drive in the F1RWRS will pay a team 1 credit to participate in a private test.
6.2.7 The cost of running a private test is as follows:
a) Running a test in the team's home country: 10 credits
b) Running a test in the team's home continent: 20 credits

I'm all for it, but do it in another thread and with the promise noone will ever come to me asking for credits for winning the predicament predictions.
Tread lightly in ARWS. Every decision might be your last.
