hoping for my first win after i got pole last night although since i'm driving for williams i will probably finish 8th I hate that chicane so much. Stupid mickey mouse addition. Almost as bad as the extra bit at Bahrain!
Leading the championship in season two with Lotus, won Bahrain, Canada, Valencia, Germany and Belgium so far. Had two shockers at Catalunya and the Hungaroring like last year. All the teams dislike me because of my media comments though, where am I going wrong?
The patch works a treat, as I lost two wins at the start of the season due to Webber and Algersuari not pitting. Saw something strange at Spa though, I won by about 40-45 seconds on 20% distance, but in the results it said everyone else was a lap behind.

After the patch, I'm still disappointed by the 'corner cutting' penalties. I'm in practice at Melbourne at the moment, and 9 our of 10 laps I'm doing end up getting invalidated. It's so tight on the rules that it's getting in the way of me just enjoying the game -- I'm having to completely avoid all the apexes just to get a valid quick lap in

Where do you see how the other teams feel about you? I can't find it anywhere. I'm only 8 races into my 1st season so it might not be there yet mind you.I'm going for the middle responses this time round, see what that does....topping the table seems to help though....'Legendary' my arse...

First year, expert, Lotus.
Qualified 9th, making up places and every single time within the first 3 laps the AI slams on the brakes in the double apex bit near the end of the lap. I try and take every measure to avoid them but the just slow down on the apexes.
Really annoying.
On a brighter note, had my first Pole and Podium (3rd) in the last race - Canada.
Online is good bar the odd idiot - only problem is I only know half the tracks so far!

Guess I'll just have to risk it each lap.

I found it varies from track to track... Some I just can't get near the front, some I win, and some I am hopeless at.t over night or the difficulty level has gone up very quicklyBest: Australia, Turkey and Canada
Nightmare: China, Spain and Monaco (which are in a row and I thought I had just lost some skill too)

I noticed that Virgin tend to be a bit slow bringing the updates to the party. Could be a reason for your lack of pace.t over night or the difficulty level has gone up very quicklyGassing Station | Video Games | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
