Some photos from in and around the Australian Grand Prix this year:

Loved the videos @supernicebob, @magnificent-geoffrey @sato113! Some great action in each. Also interesting to see the ridiculous first corner crash I started from another perspective. Taking out my own team-mate […]

Study study study! Well, not really. But still, things. So, like @slr, my video/race review will be up soon with any luck.

The Collantine Cup – Season 3: Finalé (Interlagos, Brazil)

Race Results After 36 Laps:

Winner: Common Monsoon – Red Bull Racing – 44:46.284 (25 points)

2nd: shyguy1992 – Williams +21.243 (18 […]

Actually, @sato113, when we drop the worst result, you’re dead even with @Electrolite! Now, everyone, how do we count this back? Highest finishing position? Highest lowest finish? HALP!

@sato113 We’re not changing because Electrolite’s internet isn’t fast enough, it’s just we’ve had a lot more disconnects than in previous seasons so we’re thinking his connection might not be stable enough. […]

Might be worth trying with Jamie as host for this round. And next season we’ll have to do a couple of connection test races before things kick off!

Jonnyyyyy noooooo! :-(

@sato113 Ugh, some of those sentences in the “season stories” don’t even make sense. Thanks for reminding me! :-D I probably won’t write anything up, but anyone is welcome to do a […]

We didn’t get to do this before the Collantine Cup season started so it’s a bit late, but here’s a wonderful track guide if you ever feel like watching something […]

I’m free basically whenever! The races fall in the Australian evenings so it’s pretty easy to organise. Would be amazing if we could get another big field to see out a great season.

By the way, just watched <a href='http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/members/jamiefranklinf1/&#039; […]

99 problems, bitch ain’t one (as Jonny flies off into the barrier and out of the way). Great videos!

Another wasted opportunity for me tonight! Singapore stung a bit, whereas this one felt inevitable and it’s […]

Congrats Jamie! Now the intro to the OP is finally out-of-date. And the first time it’s been won before the finale! Also well done to Steve for a decent showing upon return…

@Slr Could I get you to do the […]

I’m cool with having Electrolite host but if anyone else has experience with hosting races (and not experiencing disconnects), please let us know! It wouldn’t hurt to try something new…

As I was in Singapore, I’m hoping for rain in Suzuka. You can check why. Just liiiiike, if you feel like it. Or whatever.

Should be able to make it tomorrow! No promises for the finale, but Suzuka is looking […]

Been doing a bit of research on our lag issues to see if there’s a workaround and, unfortunately, it appears everyone is having similar issues and no-one from Codemasters has tried to fix it. It’s odd, because I […]

@sato113 I ran a low-ish downforce setup which I thought was risky considering how easy it is to spin around this particular circuit, but I think my using of the entire KERS battery in one go nullified your rear […]

@sato113 I honestly have no idea. Moving into an apartment in another state over the next few weeks so internet/gaming won’t be my main priority. But if I’m not there at the start time, don’t wait, because it […]

@sirspuddington We’ll remember you! Just check back in this thread in early November as that’s when the new season starts getting planned and we’ll be asking who wants to sign up.

@JamieFranklinF1 I just […]

Wow, from watching these videos, I’ve discovered my race was even messier than I had first thought!

Sorry about the mess at the start, @Electrolite. I wasn’t aware I’d affected anyone in particular, but I see […]
