Brazil Preview

With Drivers' and Constructors' title already settled for jockmcbaird and Force India, and promotion secured for jock and joshualuke, here's what we can expect at the Brazilian Grand Prix


deceity could snatch promotion away from Ando with a win and Ando finishing 10th or lower
inspiretheworld can still get 4th place by outscoring deceity by 15 points
The closest battle of the league is for 6th place with Zilvus, Timlica and henster within 0.5 points of each other and Big-Kid-Daddy a further 6 points behind
10th place is still up for grabs with ronanm only 4 points behind Yepega
Daniel Hall, Triso, stopper19 and Kylemilholland can still claim 12th place in the Championship, 10 points separate all 4 drivers
McLaren can still take 3rd in the Constructors'. They are 28.5 points behind ferrari.
Sauber will need almost a miracle to take 5th in the Constructors from Mercedes
Williams are bringing a new driver to try to secure their 7th place above Renault

[deceity]

Thanks you letting me practise with you guys! A lot of work til race pace ........

All good mate! :)

[TurboF1]

9 stops :)

[deceity]

Sign up to the apex cup everyone :D

[Yepega]

Sign up to the apex cup everyone :D

Is anybody else going to give this a shot?

[Yepega]

I had some good practice today, very likely to be wet here. I usually don't like the rain but I've actually liked it here. Not praying for it though, last time it rained (Turkey) I finished the race 3 laps down :(

[deceity]

yea.. the track isin't as bad as some in the wet, nurbergring for instance is a bloody nightmare in the wet!

[TurboF1]

Am on my knees now praying that it will rain in tonights race '' i need rain '' lol am not to bad in the rain with no traction , i was ok in practice the other day :)

[Timlica]

Who the **** is r23serh ?!?!? I'm so ****ing ****ed off right now!!!
Passed him atleast 15 times, and still he was in front of me, bugging like **** and hitting me

Racing wise, my best race at the season, had great pace. But r23 destroyed my chances

Congratz to Steff and thank you all for the season!

[iPro x Andy]

r32serh is Henster, and he was lagging like mad I know, but that's not his fault mate. If you feel he hit you then report it to the stewards if there were any witnesses, and if Inspire came across you at any point then he will have it on a recording.

My Race: Pretty poor, had a great first half, but got a few penalties, made a bad strategy choice for staying out on the Primes for a lap longer, costing me about 10 seconds, plus the 40 second penalty. Good points are that I'm racing in Tier 3 next season, and I think I will be racing in the same league as Jock, and maybe Deceity if he gets promoted via Apex Cup :) Thanks everyone for a great season of racing and I hope we can all still practice together :D

[TurboF1]

Not very happy with the first corner ( far to aggressive from everyone ) I WANT DECEITY , YEPEGA , BIG KID TO PUT THEIR VIDS UP IN STEWARDS ALONG WITH MINE .
And congrats to steff but he was lagging like a crazy man '' that needs sorted '' asap

Edit - after my double crash at the beginning still finished third to beat deceity '' YES ''

[AERO_Danne27]

inspiretheworld my video you can see when you crash i was just behind you.

[iPro x Jericho]

inspiretheworld my video you can see when you crash i was just behind you.

Upload it to the site Daniel

[deceity]

yea interesting race for me.... My computer isn't letting me upload it to youtube and it doesn't recognise any of my hard drives so i cant transport it onto another computer..... rubbish
if it comes to it though, i could just video the computer recordings specific bits on my phone and upload them.... (it'll be much smaller memory so i could use a usb drive to transfer it to another computer rather than a HD..)

watched the video back.. heres my opinion..

1st corner, i completely messed that right up, went proper wide... glanced back and saw inspire spin.. didnt see any contact (not saying that there wasn't any, just saying from my view I couldn't see any).. waited for inspire anyway because technically it was prob my fault for running wide in the first place..
Somewhere along lap 4 I think me an timlica were on the main straight going past the pits when he hit the back of my car and spun... I did the 1 move to the inside line but unfortunatly we collieded.....
Im sorry bout that mate, I didnt realise you had spun.. otherwise I would have waited... sorry about that pal... hope it didnt mess your race up... :(
then around lap 6 me and yepega had our little crash wish resulted in a DNF for me...

Im not going to the stewards with this because Im fairly certain lag played a part here.... On my screen I was in front of him when it appears he turns in on me.. however, im fully aware that lag may have played a part and i bet yepega's view is different to mine... I'll upload the short clip anyway, just so people can see.. but its all good mate - just one of those things...

EDIT: Never mind, had a great season with you all! look forward to next year! :)
Great fun!!

Great fun!! On my screen it looks it looks as if you're still behind me on the outside. I'm sorry it ended the race for you man. I don't think it was my fault though I could have left a bit more room on the outside?? The video is uploading right now so you guys will see what I'm talking about.
Anyway, very eventful race for me, apart from the incident with deceity I had a couple of incidents more that I'm debating whether to take to the stewards, I'll watch the video again and decide.

Qualified on primes, hoping it would help me if the rain came early, didn't matter though 'cause I got a puncture during my tangle with deceity, so fitted another set of primes (again expecting rain) and made them last until lap 23 I think, when it started raining and pitted for inters. After this I found myself in 8th, with a comfortable lead of 16 seconds to jock behind, and then on lap 34 boom! puncture, pitted, came out 10th, and with Timlica's penalty ended 9th. Good race! Nice racing with you all this season. Good luck to everybody in your new leagues!:)

[Yepega]

Here's the incident with deceity

What do you guys think?

My race skip to 5;10

[deceity]

man, my screen looks so different to that yepega... uploading now 5 mins...

and inspire, looks as if it was ando who hit you..... he should have waited i reckon..... i waited for you because i went wide and i didnt even hit you...

[AERO_Danne27]

And what did Ando do lap 19 and nice bug in the box after that :(

[deceity]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaI5pJCHBMs&feature=youtu.be

What do you guys think?

Heres my view

[deceity]

And what did Ando do lap 19 and nice bug in the box after that :(

didnt see that!! not to sure why he braked so hard at that corner :/

[Timlica]

Wow, that looks wierd! Looks like it is two seperate accidents.

Judge wise I think it's just stuff that happens, both of you thinks your infront and you touch, no biggie

[TurboF1]

i was right behind you as that happened uploading mine too lol

Edit how do you get the videos too show directly on this thread ????

wow! your 2 videos look similar but mine looks totally different

[iPro x Andy]

And what did Ando do lap 19 and nice bug in the box after that :(

Yeah I had terrible lag all evening, and this basically sums it up. I didn't actually brake that hard at any point in the race, it's just lag that caused my car on your screen to brake test you mate :)

And Danne, it would be great if you changed your mind and stayed on Apex, because you could be succesful in this league! And I'm sure the Super League will interest you, in the "Races and Tournaments" section. The Super League is a no-assists competition on ARL which will be running every Tuesday in Season 4, which should be a good opportunity to show what your all about :D

[deceity]

codemasters need to sort themselves out....
Because F1 is so fast, any lag is a killer...

3 different cars, 3 different views..

Yepega - looks like you were in front and i drove into the back of your car making you spin
Mine - looks like im in front and you drove into the back of me
Inspire - Looks like we're pretty much alongside each other

[AERO_Danne27]

Ando how do i Join the super league then?

[Yepega]

Ando how do i Join the super league then? Here you go Super league signup (http://www.apexracingleague.com/showthread.php?9154-Super-League-Season-2-SIGN-UP)

You should sign up for the Apex Cup (http://www.apexracingleague.com/showthread.php?9245-Apex-Cup-Is-Back!!!-Early-Promotion-Opportunity) too, with your pace you might get one of the spots for Tier 2 which doesn't allow any assists

Im hoping to get a tier 2 spot.... got to qualify first though :/

Who is being dirty then?Apparently I was, Ian. According to Inspire anyway :D. Although the stewards panel totally disagreed, which means I'm not a dirty driver at all.

Good video mate......must have been gutted on lap 33 when you got the random puncture!!

[Yepega]

Good video mate......must have been gutted on lap 33 when you got the random puncture!!

Yeah, that sucked because I was actually keeping up with danne and would have gained another place after Ando's penalties

[TurboF1]

nice video yepega , was laughing when you crossed the line with 1 second to spare lol poor deceity gutted after getting pipped by 2 thousands of a second haha ... haha .
ando dont make it out to be good that you got away with it , your the one who has been cutting corners and everyone has noticed it ... don't be cleaver it doesn't suit you
I dont think we should have full grids anymore ( the lag is too bad when there is more then 10 people in the lobby ) it causes to many incidents
jock you got a random puncture ??? prob the lag i was reading something on codemasters which said ( in laymens terms ) to many people cause to much lag which then causes the game to glitch and makes stuff like that happen and putting wrong tires on cars / worn out tires etc etc , not to sure if it was on there i was reading it but have seen that somewhere yepega you should take that up to the ' chiefs'( mods )

I didn't get a puncture, yepega did.....I got worn options put on when I asked for inters!!!!

[TurboF1]

I didn't get a puncture, yepega did.....I got worn options put on when I asked for inters!!!!
same thing really lol a stupid glitch haha :) ,, i remember once i had a drive through penalty and went into the pits to take it and it made me change my tires instead :( stupid game , its pants

[Yepega]

I didn't get a puncture, yepega did.....I got worn options put on when I asked for inters!!!! Ahh, that's why you were going so slow when I caught up to you, I was like how the hell has he managed to drive with dry tyres till lap 27 :confused:


Im hoping to get a tier 2 spot.... got to qualify first though :/

actually, any promotion would be sweeeet :D I think you have a good chance to make it to Tier 2 mate. I'll be watching and rooting for you and inspire in the Apex Cup :)

I really like the full grids so I wouldn't want to make them smaller, let's just hope it's not this bad next time.

[Big-Kid-Daddy]

Well Virgin media are doubling my broadband speed soon so as host the signal should be better than it already is, we have had more incidents with fuller grids though,at India ,I had worn options put on when pitting too.

Great news man!, are they doubling your upload as well as your download speed? Upload is the most important for online racing.

[TurboF1]

yea i like big grids to but if its causing to many problems then it needs looked at :D, i think it puts worn out tires on your car when you have no fresh sets left to choose from .
cheers yepega least i no i have someone in the stands cheering for me lol

[Big-Kid-Daddy]

Fresh tyres was available,its only 2 runs on quali.

[TurboF1]

its bull aint it ian ,,, 1 of the things that gets to me on this game .

[Kylemilholland]

There is a bug in carrer that when u drive out of the garage it automatically puts the newest tyres on your car I'm not sure if it is online also but if your doing a qualli run and return and go back out u will be putting on a new set for the second run leaving you with only 1 fresh set for the race (for options) look into that maybe thats it

You will notice it if u drive threw the grass and pull in to the pits with grass on your tyres when u go out as the car comes off the stands and begins to pull out they will become clean or as I suspect, new

there is a few glitches when it comes to career mode ( tires being one of them ) kyle nothing really we can do about it , jock found out that you need to just be careful when choosing your tires ( try to use as much of the tire before you change it ( never use the same tire twice )
