[Mtommi Tam]

Thank you,Go.............! :jumping:

[William Yunck]

When I go to it for Estoril, it still displays Brno. I am sure it is no problem, just a setting of something, but I thought I would bring it to your attention.
thanks

[Ramon van Rijn]

I know
It was also weekend for me. Will be corrected within the hour.

Rest??? Or do you mean 'time to collect his magical ingredients...' Hmmm... Eye of frog, leg of newt, hair from one black cat... Mucus from a chicken and the sweat of a unicorn.

:alla:

One incantation later and poof :drunk:

[Ramon van Rijn]

Yeah, I was waiting for the druid to collect the necessary ingredients
Now I have them and the prequal stats are fully functioning for Estoril LOL.

[William Yunck]

Sorry Guys,
I didn't read any announcements due to me having a weekend also. :o I just jumped into the server last night and then did my post. I'm an idiot.
Sorry again and thankyou for everything.
William.

[Bram Hengeveld]

Lol arent we all idiots

You are right to do so
If the announcement is made on the forum, any lap will count. Timings will be done right away or a few hours later normally
Nothing is wasted, every prequal resultfile will be used.

So in the UK since were on DST that is 22:00 for the race start, as all times are GMT + 1 for the UK just now?

[Attila Domján]

I think so, yes. CET is GMT +2 at the moment, that one i am 100% sure about.

Reported incident of cutting at Estoril by Samuel Libeert, during Per-Qualy.

After carefully looking at the replay, we have concluded that Samuel's fastest lap does not comply with the rules as spelled out in the League Forum. He cut the exit of the final chicane, beyond what was stated as legal.
However, we do not consider that he did it intentionally, and we appreciate that he advised us. We accept that it was accidental, but we still can't allow it.

Therefore, as a penalty, all of Samuel's Pre-Qualy lap times so far will be removed.
He may then enter the server, and commence pre-qualifying again. Any further evidence of cutting by Samuel will result in a time penalty.

(On behalf of the Race Direction).

[Nils Wijk]

Yesterday I was doing some laps and when I clicked race I ended up being behind Mathieu Prevot. On the main straight I noticed I reached my topspeed a lot sooner then normal. This must have been because of the draft, but I was always thinking there was none during prequal???

[Attila Domján]

I can hardly imagine that there is draft effect with ghost cars.
