Looks like the rain might be about to hit.. woo

 

[Mr Jack]

The track is on fire!

 

[el_dazza]

The grass is on fire at turn 5.. what the..?!

 

[AlphariusOmegan]

ban skidblocks!!! they're dangerous and cause fires!!!

Tbh this is the first time i've ever seen the sparks cause a fire, maybe replace those areas with gravel?

The rain should deal with the problem, I think.

 

[Feek]

SQ2 delayed, scheduled for the same time as the rain, so it'll put the fire out

 

[el_dazza]

Rain coats going on.. let the fun begin.

Session starts in 3 mins.

 

[Terminal_Boy]

Cover the grass in fire extinguisher powder. Job done.

 

[Feek]

No Brundle this weekend but Nico instead? That sucks.

 

[el_dazza]

The rain, she has arrived.

 

[Mr Jack]

That's Russell out then. Zhou in SQ3 for his home race.

 

[el_dazza]

Both Saubers in the top 10!

 

[Yaayuh!]

No Brundle this weekend but Nico instead? That sucks.

IMO, they shouldn't race without Brundle

 

[Feek]

For goodness sake, if you're all going off on inters, put full wets on.

 

[GravyMonster]

The Pirelli full wets are completely useless. The inters provide more grip in basically every situation except standing water, but the cars never race in that.

 

[GravyMonster]

Awwww Norris would have been on pole by 1s+ if he hadn't blown the last corner

*Edit* And then he blows it again... the guy chokes it on every opportunity.

*Edit 2* WTF race control...?

 

[SpartaP]

Agreed

 

[SpartaP]

Come on Norris !!!!

 

[Stumble Bum]

LANDOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

 

[el_dazza]

That was lucky, got Norris at 18/1 to get pole there
