Grand Prix 4 Touring Car Championship - Season 4

Milos · Apr 3, 2015

2-3 is a very promising position to beat our race sponsor objective, and we got the quali sponsor for being on the front row too

Pretty happy with how qualifying went, this is exactly what I was hoping for

Let's hope for a big challenge.

This car has something fantastic, we didn't adopt Minardi colors only, but Minardi performance too!

Joel · Apr 3, 2015

Always a relief. Now. +3 Race BHP! Don't betray me!

Apex could be the Speedy of S4. Just gotta get Ben back with me now

Aidan Keranen · Apr 4, 2015

I just realised looking at the quali results, that you've shortened the track name to Hermanos = Brothers I believe

Well done Joel! Pole!

Sad i couldnt get the front row for sponsors.... Would have been really important, but hey, we cant complain! 1/4 at the first session, i dont think any team was this good at the first session so far. Apex surprised with a 2/3, too. Well done.

And now... Please a double podium

Hopefully the video is up soon ^^

Milos · Apr 4, 2015

the video still isn't up?? So it must be still processing

for like 2-3 hours now..

Aidan Keranen · Apr 4, 2015

yeah have a check on that

Milos · Apr 4, 2015

well, I don't think it'll be up soon, may have to re-upload it on Dailymotion

Milos · Apr 4, 2015

for those however who want to have an early look:

PLEASE put your race comments in spoilers, like this:

Wow, I was so far off the pace! Completely unexpected.. Could've even retired for a good result in race 3, cuz it wouldn't matter. Now we'll desperately need Joel to retire in race 2 to be able to keep up with budgets compared to OMR. I need that beastly run down to turn 1 to work in my favour aswell.
Martins though just overtaking Harvey for that podium

Equal position. I don't feel much impressed with that as this is one of my favourite 90's F1 tracks.

Dang - That will be a tough race weekend for me. But on the other hand we've got nice money through our aggressive sponsor startegy, even though just Joel could get the money - Still we have money from the pole, from the qualifying and the podium. Hopefully he does a decent job in Race 2, too. I for myself hope to stay at the back to have a good chance in Race 3.

Milos · Apr 4, 2015

well here's a status update: I just did race 2 and forgot to record it

kedy89 · Apr 4, 2015

Bad race, only 7th.

Saving for next season

Milos · Apr 4, 2015

ok, so as I forgot to record, I'll just do a short recap of the race, today I have a busy day and don't really have time to do another 20 minute race.

RACE 2:

Recap in the second spoiler!

So, McNamara lead away nicely, while Rautavaara got off to a bad start, he got overtaken into turn 1 by Martins and Harvey, who had a brilliant start and took the early lead. Rautavaara dropped back to 4th. McNamara quickly got back past the Apex and started to pull out a gap. On the next lap, all of a sudden Lintner has an engine failure and slows down a train of cars behind him, leaving McNamara, Harvey, and Rautavaara to storm away in the distance. Lap 3, and Rautavaara spun after trying a stupid move into turn 1, which got nicely covered by Harvey. He was, of course, out of the race. During the entire race, Keranen and Martins were constantly battling for the final podium spot, as catching up to Harvey seemed like a miracle at the time. While the pair were battling, there was a train behind them, also battling constantly for positions. On around lap 7, Laad had an oil leak, slightly creating a train in the esses section, soon pulled over to the side of the race track. Eventually, with team work, Martins and Keranen caught up to Harvey (with what was a 6.5 second gap on lap 3), reducing it down to just 1 second. Martins just got the edge over Keranen, as Herbert and Utzer ran side-by-side to the line, but Herbert just defended his position. Ana was the highest jumper, going up 8 positions and taking advantage of the long run down to turn 1.
