@kingshark 1030 cet would be fantastic mate :)

“Pit on lap 1 – a set of option tyres”

“Front wing – 8
Rear wing – 5″

Is this even for real?

That might happen, but probably won’t.

Sorry for the delay, here’s my strategy and set up…

With Australia being a grubby circuit with a street layout, I’ve tried to go for a medium-downforce setup, whilst maintaining decent top line speed….

Front Wing – 6
Rear Wing – 5
Engine Revs – 6 (don’t want to be a Mercedes with dreadful rear tyre wear, but neither a Red Bull sitting duck on the straights)!
Gearbox – 7 (not too many big traction zones in Australia, so hoping this will pay off for top speed)
Ride Hide – 6 (it’s bumpy, and there’s a lot of curbs to attack, so I’m hoping this ride height will allow for some aggressive driving!)

Qualifying on Option Tyres

Start on Options
Pitstop 1 – Lap 15 – Prime
Pitstop 2 – Lap 42 – Options

Hoping to get a quick start on the options, and then consolidate in the middle stint before having a racey finish on a second set of options…

That is my race strategy and set up. /CONFIRM!

Announcement: The Grand Prix will begin on 11:30 PM CET, or 10:30 PM UK time on Friday. The reason behind the hour delay is because I live here in North America, and I might not be home by 3:30 PM (my timezone). I could try to write it on my phone, but that would be too difficult and slow.

Nonetheless, it’s great to see that everyone has their strategy and setup in with 2 days to spare. Should give me plenty of time to write the scenario and calculate the pace. ;-)

9th, well not good but not bad either! I hope I can score some points from 9th!

Oh no, I am so slow :(. I was hoping that the extra downforce would help…but maybe we aren’t using DRS…

Wow! Wasn’t expecting that at all! But I am not going to get carried away until the final result on Friday night, otherwise I will be disappointed when I retire on lap 2 :P.
