That's good news for you... hot races - good results for you.... so stop crying when is hot weather.

You can view it as complaining ... I'm just saying that this weather is heavily favouring contis and there has been no variety so far. I don't see how you act like it doesn't bother you. Let me throw you 6 rain races in a row out of 7 and maybe you'll like it.
Of course Mikko won't complain he's running on them, I wouldn't be complaining either I would be thanking whoever choose this weather.
Promoters should care about everything when it comes to competitors, however I'm fine with where I am this season no disappointments.

Of course another guy with Contis comes to bash me :D
And mind you, hot races or not I would still get good results, the ones when I didn't wasn't due to hot or cold weather so that argument is invalid .. Either way there was barely any chance to race in (not hot) medium/cold weather. Of course contis benefit from this weather, let's see how they fare in colder races.
E: Take a poll right now with other people and you'll see how tired and annoyed they are with this constant hot weather. I'm one of them and I'm in a promo season and yet it still bothers me

No, I(or maybe "we" is better) just don't understand you... compare Y with D - that´s the main point for you... why you still comparing C with Y... C - gyus are not promoters
If I were you, I would be happy with Y and with weather like this season ;)

Don't need to compare Y with D
I'm comparing C with A Y D M H B and all other letters of the alphabet :D
Quote ( Róbert Fabian @ August 28th 2018,22:49:50 ) C - gyus are not promoters
Like I said before C guys are almost turning into ones at this rate
Quote ( Sebastian Cucciardi @ August 28th 2018,22:03:53 ) Conti runners turned from surviving with OBP to promotion contenders :D
Quote ( Róbert Fabian @ August 28th 2018,22:49:50 ) If I were you, I would be happy with Y
I am :)

I don't think so... C are the best option for retain in group, not for promotion. Who would choose C for promotion? Yes, no one :D So we will not be in the top 3 positions at the end of this season - no worries ;) (Of course with 7-8 hot races maybe there will be a small chance :P :D )

I wonder how competitive Pipi's would be this season for someone with a strong package ;) I reckon you'd still promote Seb ;)

True that's why I choose them sometime but even you said Quote ( Róbert Fabian @ August 28th 2018,23:06:15 ) with 7-8 hot races maybe there will be a small chance :P :D )
Quote ( Stuart Foster @ August 28th 2018,23:06:21 ) I reckon you'd still promote Seb ;)
I think you'd lose that bet but if you win, that's even better for me :P

Quote ( Sebastian Cucciardi @ August 28th 2018,22:31:16 ) Of course Mikko won't complain he's running on them, I've actually used quite a few different brands of tyres and never complained about them or the weather.
Quote ( Sebastian Cucciardi @ August 28th 2018,22:31:16 ) E: Take a poll right now with other people and you'll see how tired and annoyed they are with this constant hot weather. Ofc. it does because they perceive somehow being unfairly treated.
But they never complain or see any "unfair advantage" when there is 500 races of 21-27 degrees
but omg if there is even 3-4 hot or cold races, that's a massive crisis.
Quote ( Stuart Foster @ August 28th 2018,22:20:08 ) why you are you complaining about the weather on yoko though? I don't get it. Everyone paying 1.5m for a tyre should be well pleased. except the fact that others are paying even more
Some people just like to play victim.
Quote ( Stuart Foster @ August 28th 2018,22:20:08 ) It's like you're bothered about Conti's even when finishing a race in P2 with a promo package? Maybe in that position it's in some way even more satisfying to play victim ?

S61 was epic, it was literally within 18-25 degrees for 8 races solid and I promoted straight after amateur promotion thanks solely to dunno's and there being only about 3 or 4 people running them lol :) Any other season I'd have only retained without doubt....my package was definitely not great....only "ok". Generally I've done ok and been happy with my tyre choices, except in S39. I would have won my group easily on Avonn, picking Bad Year cost me about 30 points. Definitely my worst ever tyre choice in terms of season potential.

Says the guy who likes to play the been there done that, know-it-all smart guy ... Jesus please.

Also for the record I have never i should bold that for you never stated that it gives an unfair advantage I myself choose contis exactly for these hot races to gain that extra boost
Also how in the hell am I playing a victim for stating the absolute truth that so far weather heavily favoured contis tyres, explain to me the logic in that.

Mikko is like an untanned Jose Mourinho....
RESPECT! :D :D

What happened to Nicolas ?

Quote ( Mikko Heikkinen @ August 31st 2018,20:53:47 ) What happened to Nicolas ?
Well with this temperature, he got too hot in his car and went home :D

Maybe :)
btw: I've given my driver instructions in advance not to take the rest of the race too seriously, if your driver is keen on the position my driver should "give" quite easily.
I'm starving so I might not be here to enforce that that driver follows instructions, but let's see if he does :)

It's Monza so no worries :P
|

Mikko's drivers clearly all have personality disorders... why's he taking it easy Mikko?!
e : Mine has a bigger one, he can't reach the pedals :(

Yes, then I remembered it would get thrown straight back :)
ok, time to start using more than 0 risk....
uhuhuhuhuh..... ;)

Quote ( Stuart Foster @ August 31st 2018,22:28:16 ) why's he taking it easy Mikko?! "Good enough" mentality
|
|

good enough never won Elite. You're too soft ;)
e : I really hope I can retain....probably not....but i'm sensing quite a promotion battle next season. Pace is decent here, especially in Q's.
My driver is surprisingly decent...everything else is a bit like....remember Andrea Moda?
My whole car almost was L5 parts last race :/
Time for an upgrade then :)

and it was the race ending kind. (otoh saved car wear)
Mine (at R3) didn't end the race, not quite sure is that more or less lucky

Yep the car stopped exactly as it crossed the start/finish line

do you guys really watch the races? I can't stomach it. not even when I've got a cat in hell's chance of doing ok / well. :)
|
|
|
Quote ( Stuart Foster @ September 1st 2018,09:54:45 ) do you guys really watch the races? Sure, every single one of them.
0k, maybe I haven't seen quite all of them, as I've had holidays and such, but I'd say that I've seen almost all races from the time here.
|
|
|
Even S54 race 8 specifically? or....worse....the whole of season 52? ;)
I bet you watched less than 100 laps of all those 18 races ;)
If not.....this is just for you : https://goo.gl/images/t7tGjK

The new live race screen surely helps to keep it more entertaining :)
Quote ( Stuart Foster @ September 1st 2018,09:54:45 ) I can't stomach it.
I wouldn't either if i'm running in 25th place or lower :P Who would want to watch a race if I can't even get into 30th, I know I wouldn't.
I only watch fully when I know I have a chance of making points or better.
Also it helps if you go do something or watch something else and fast forward every 15 minutes of the race

Shame you can't do the same with women when they open their mouths ;)

Offer food to shut them up.
Cons: they get fat :P

Unlucky. S62 race 5 was my last one. This has definitely been my longest run without a puncture (70 races). I am well aware one is long overdue though so no point touching would or some good fortune thing, it is inevitable it will come...and sooner than later. Probably in my promotion season...and three of them in a row or something :)
