A single-make series named after Ernesto Vita, creator of Life. Ran in rFactor with the same points scoring system as the one used in F1 right now.
All races have 12 laps with the exception of the World round, which has 6.
The Cars
Chassis: The main body of the Vita FV01 is a 1998 WIlliams, the front wing is from a '98 Tyrrell and the rear wing from a '98 Jordan. Engine: Vita NM012 V10 Tyres: Goodyear
This series seems interesting enough,especially with some weird driver pairings.Especially Suranovich and Daly,seeing how they would fare as teammates after Monaco...
This series also seems to be a GP Masters-esque series featuring former Formula One drivers,with the exception of a few,of course.
I also approve of the "World" circuit.Now,that should be interesting...
My friend's USB drive spoiled, spilled tea on her laptop and had a bird poo in her hand.

My brother made that team, he's weird like that...
Soooo Buemi hit Daly in the first corner becoming the first retirement of the season, Kiesa spun there on lap 7, his team mate Doornbos couldn't react quick enough and slammed into Kiesa's car so both Gauloiseses were out. Suranovich then crashed out Liuzzi who was leading whilst catching up to the safety car. Zonta crashed under the safety car as well. With Suranovich pitting for a new front wing Trulli found himself in the lead ahead of Daly, Bourdais, Hil and HWNSNBM. The first corner seemed to be getting increasingly difficult as Palmer then spun on lap 17 while in 5th place. Klien took his wheel off. Pizzonia was the next retiree as the spun and hit the wall at turn 14. Klien and di Grassi both went off at turn 7. And then, ANOTHER 2 victims at turn 1 as Monteiro went off and took himself and Chandhok out. The final retirement was Albers on the last lap spinning at turn 7 and smashing himself into Heidfeld, Heidfeld escaped with only a lost rear wing. The race was finished under the safety car.

The first retirements came at the Mineralli chicane on the first lap, where Trulli and Brundle went off. Predictably the safety car was brought out and Albers crashed under it at the same corner, after 5 laps the pace car came in and Monteiro instantly retired from 17th at Tosa after trying to pass Suranovich. The next victim of Mineralli was Chandhok whilst Suranovich crashed at the final chicane, another safety car on lap 8 saw Schumacher also going off there, it claimed 4 cars on the next lap. With the green flag waved on lap 11 Klien smashed into the rear of Bourdais while in the pits. The chicane took off Heidfeld and Winkelhock as well as d'Ambrosio and di Grassi on lap 12. A bizzare incident occured when Palmer was about to be lapped but the safety car plowed through him and he was out, his dead car collected Hill. The final retirement came at final lap when Doornbos went off at Ravazza just after being lapped by Daly.

Not too many retirements this time, maybe now I can actually talk about the race!
d'Ambrosio took 2nd place from Hill in spectacular fashion going around the outside of the Brit on the banked Peraltada corner on lap 2, all this would become pointless however as he spun and lost his front wing trying to challenge race leader Zonta. Suranovich had a dysmal first few laps dropping down to 9th. Hill was pressuring Brundle before they both overtaken in one move by Pizzonia into turn 1 on lap 9. For reasons I was too lazy to explore the safety car was brought out on lap 17. Unfortunately it exited the pits behind Zonta resulting in Hill who was running 4th to smash into it's rear. The indestructible pace car then plowed through Pizzonia and Daly who were running in 2nd and 3rd respectively. The race was a safety car finish.

"We've got this ridiculous situation where we're waiting for a winner and nobody's showing up!"
rFactor is notorius for it's shabby AI, and at Montreal, the drivers ride the kerbs in the final chicane a la Takuma Sato, causing them to crash out into the wall of champions.
