I think your driver can perform well up until he has 0% fitness then you see your laptimes drop by a few seconds. But they say in the FAQ that you can still race hiom and improve Kilter etc etc and car setup! Also before a race it might be best to test early on the training day so your driver gets some time to recover before the race!
The race is on at the moment 4pm UK time so the server wont allow me to login. Be sure to check in an hour or 2 to see the summary of the race. As I dont think you can do it tomorow. And yes the race is free! But you do pick up damage which costs quite a bit to fix! So remember to do that 1st thing tomorrow. |

Race results now out - I'm happy to finish in 2nd after starting in 10th, a 1 stop strategy stopping as soon as I could to enable me to continue did help; although my driver was totally exhausted over 20laps before the end and I still finished a lap down! Photo finish for 2nd place too...

This games is not as easy as it looks. I totally screwed up the pit stop stratagy, and so i did not get any points, although i have a cunning plan for Monaco. SHould go well around there (I hope)

I got 3rd! On a three stop strategy as well! Wrex old mate you had a disaster of a race
Driving mistakes! Engine trouble and then you fell out My pit stops were about 20 secs each!? Only thing that is dumb about this game is you cannot look at the history.. so if you miss the race 'review' today you cant see what has happenend! |

01:15,728 (01:09,294) last and fastest i presume although they have them the other way around. I was miles behind the winner though (03:17,192) and he was doing 01:08,132 (01:07,076) So seems his driver was fit enough to finish the race!!

Also im ranked lowest of the people with 16 points (by going into the race with no cash) I think this will help you score more points against people who are better you. the higher your private race group is the harder it will be...
