Lo siento Doni, no tenía intención de intentar un adelantamiento, pero mis frenos estaban muy muy rojos! Quise dejarte la posición, y al ver un coche rojo pensé que eras tu. Realmente era Tago, pero me di cuenta más tarde...

Sorry Doni, I had no intention to overtake, but my brakes were very very red! I wanted to leave you the position, and when I saw a red car I thought it was you. It really was Tago, but I realized later...

Gracias a todos por correr.

Hice una buena salida, ganando algunas posiciones en las primeras vueltas y poniéndome en cabeza.
Las cosas se veían bien hasta que perdí la primera marcha y llegué a punto muerto a la T1. Sin el freno motor me dirigí hacia las balas de heno.

Después de eso, me recuperé hasta la 4ª posición.


Bien hecho Gaizka por llevarse el primer premio.


Gracias por una buena temporada con los 55 coches. Una buena elección de pistas y una competición divertida.
También disfruté de los entrenamientos que también fueron muy divertidos.

Gracias por organizar y acoger.




Thanks all for racing.

I made a good start making some places in the opening laps and into the lead.
Things were looking good until I missed 1st gear and hit neutral into T1. Without the engine braking I headed for the hay bales.

After that I recovered to 4th.


Well done Gaizka for taking the top prize.


Thanks for a nice season with the 55 cars. Good track choice and fun competition.
I also enjoyed the training sessions that were also a lot of fun.

Thanks for organising and hosting.

Me ha costado actualizar weekly por que la base de datos se hacía un lío en la SQL al tratar a "e farina" y "enrique farina" que los debia asociar de alguna manera a farina a secas y no lo sabía tratar

Le he dado los datos de carrera a "enrique farina" y he eliminado el resto de datos para eliminar la confusión

Así que weekly actualizada

A mencionar (para facilitar el trabajo a Xuggy )

enrique 10 = 8 + vr + consistencia
gaizka 7 = 6 + pole
Clive 4
Paul 3
Tago 2
Doni 2 = 1 + remontada (en el report parece que la remontada sea de enrique, pero realmente sale 3º y acaba 1º, o sea que Doni con 3 posiciones la gana)

I had a hard time updating weekly because the database made a mess in the SQL when dealing with "e farina" and "enrique farina" ... It somehow associated both to "farina" and didn't know how to deal with them.

I have given the race data to "enrique farina" and deleted the rest of the data to eliminate the confusion.

So weekly updated

To mention (to make Xuggy's job easier )

enrique 10 = 8 + fastest lap + consistency
gaizka 7 = 6 + pole
Clive 4
Paul 3
Tago 2
Doni 2 = 1 + comeback (in the report it seems that the comeback is of enrique, but really he starts 3rd and finishes 1st, so Doni with 3 positions wins it)

Enrique protagonizó una carrera memorable

Clasifica 2º en su primera tanda marcando un 1:17.326 justo por delante de Clive 1:17.338

Se da cuenta del error de servidor que le da una vuelta de solo 4 segundos (debido a un warp al poco de cruzar la línea de meta)

Sale del servidor, cambia de player y en 4 vueltas mas minimiza los daños marcando bajo la bandera 1:17.355 para salir 3º

Otro hubiera acumulado nervios o yo que sé

Luego logra victoria + vuelta rápida + la consistencia = Tio Gilito



Genial

Enrique had yesterday a race to remember

Qualifies 2nd in his first run with a 1:17.326 closely followed by Clive's 1:17.338.

Realizes the server error that gives him a lap time of only 4 seconds (due to suffering a warp shortly after crossing the finish line).

Exits the server, changes player and in 4 more laps minimizes the damage by setting a 1:17.355 under the flag to start 3rd.

Another one would have accumulated nerves or I don't know what.

Then he gets a win + fastest lap + consistency = Scrooge McDuck



Great

...

enrique 10 = 8 + vr + consistencia
gaizka 7 = 6 + pole
Clive 4
Paul 3
Tago 2
Doni 2 = 1 + remontada (en el report parece que la remontada sea de enrique, pero realmente sale 3º y acaba 1º, o sea que Doni con 3 posiciones la gana)

Pues no ha habido manera de colar el punto para Doni así que "devolución de Jamón" en marcha Doni

Enrique al salir 3º gana 2 por acabar 1º y Doni también gana 2 al salir 8º y acabar 6º, empatando el punto es para el que acaba en mejor posición

enrique 11 = 8 + vr + consistencia + remontada
gaizka 7 = 6 + pole
Clive 4
Paul 3
Tago 2
Doni 1

Arreglando weekly ...

...

enrique 10 = 8 + fastest lap + consistency
gaizka 7 = 6 + pole
Clive 4
Paul 3
Tago 2
Doni 2 = 1 + comeback (in the report it seems that the comeback is of enrique, but really he starts 3rd and finishes 1st, so Doni with 3 positions wins it)

There has been no way to sneak the point for Doni so I start return of Ham Doni

Enrique starting 3rd wins 2 for finishing 1st and Doni also wins 2 for starting 8th and finishing 6th, tying the point is for the one who finishes in better position.

enrique 11 = 8 + vr + consistency + comeback
gaizka 7 = 6 + pole
Clive 4
Paul 3
Tago 2
Doni 1

Fixing weekly ...

A fun but difficult circuit to master. I swear that I wasn't satisfied with my passes through the final complex til about 10 laps into the race! LOL!

Splendid run by Ricky to score the victory. Well done, amigo. Ricky claims P3 in the final standings, too. Gaizka a close P2 and if my math is correct, has scored sufficient points to claim the season-long title. We're not worthy! Great job all season, Gaizka. Clive shakes off his recent sag in performance to claim the final podium placing. Well done. Paul finishes P4 in the race after some misadventures and stands P2 in the championship table. Great job, PS.

I got a fine launch off the grid...or was it Quico and Tago getting poor ones?...to jump up the order to P5. Held that til Lap10 when Quico ran short of brakes and had me off the road in Quarry. Lucky not to get stuck in the bales. Got going again to chase and got the place back from Quico when he fell off the road with about 10 laps to run. Was working hard to stay ahead of him when on the final lap, Jorge's engine took a time out and went onto 1-1/2 cylinders. Bad luck there. Inherited P6 with barely a kilometer to run.

Thanks to the club for organizing and hosting another great GP55 season!

[Clive Loynes]

Thanks to PDLR for a fine season.

Running with the likes of the Gordini Gang has been an education.
