  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Spain Spoiler.

what the heck happened to Hamilton?, he was 2nd when i was draged away from the race!
 
I don't know that Lewis blew his tire so much as the entire wheel just cut through and came undone. thankfully the tethers did their job. Tire did blow too. Race needed rain. :icon_lol:

Poor Alonso

Can you imagine his feelings when he drove around the last lap in third place, and came upon his great mate Hamilton's 2nd-placed McLaren parked in the tyre wall!

Great drive by Webber, that makes 10 pole sitters winning this race.
I find running the playback recording at 30x is too fast, the titles aren't readable.
12x is good, gets you through the race in as long as it takes to eat a bowl of breakfast cereal.

The practice days' commentary chatter is great though, provides lots of insights into this high-tech circus.

Edit: Lewis is hard on tyres...reading the post-race Q&A a moment ago:
"It was my fourth tyre blow-out in my Formula One career so far - more than other drivers in their whole lifetime! "

He really knows nothing of Formula 1 history!!!

An aside:Those 'Cosworth' engines are not very impressive, despite Rosberg being stuck behind Hulkenberg for some time it was aerodynamic turbulence rather than power that caused him grief.
With each passing event I think USF1 are probably happy to be out of it.
IIRC the last time a Cosworth won an F1 race would have been 1999.
