Shanghai is a nice track with challenging curves which made the race more enjoyable than some of the previous races. Not so many top drivers this time though. Although Mike Nike quitted before racing saying "> too less chances to overtake and easy to crash in some part" there was plenty of places to overtake and what comes to crashing, well... it's in the game. IMHO stupid reasons for not racing.

Overall my race went ok but due some lags and then crashing with low fuel crashed my plans for the podium. Damn fuel

I expected the race would'nt be a ghostrace and i tested only a few laps, which i have probably mentioned too. ~3rd curve and ~3rd last curve i expected as best chances to overtake. All in all no good ones and there where parts (last part, hay...or some tree(s) in the middle) where you could crash when trying to drive very fast. I had less time and could decide quick if i join that race or do that what i usually was about to do...since it was Keppanas Cup i had to check it quick..
With only 1 or 2 * 5 laps practice joining a race (56 laps) when i do not like the track in combination with the car...i don't feel well - wouldn't have made much fun to me - in the worst case i would have even crashed often and blocked others which were trying to race seriously in this actually nice season.

Nice to see that Razzle made it!

Certainly it would been nice, if colt & co. would have joined too

Thanks Mike

It was a nice race, although a bit laggy in places, but as I said earlier it kind of compares to wet race conditions...just look at Kubica's driving in Shanghai GP, and you'll get the idea!

It's easy to say like that, he has never driven with us, so he don't know nothing and it's very different when there is fuel on slowing and everybody has different tactic. But as you saw, car is handleable and we had good fight, driving side by side and still not crashing, also having good battles with rivolta and Ivan

You know there is no perfect track and will never be, there is always place to crash anywhere (but curve with trees was one of potential crash places in race, also hairpin just before curve, happily surprising there was not much crashing in last hairpin). Don't just calculate, next time do join us.
