Round 4 This is the last round of the season and just 5 brave men qualified on this historic track. A pleasure to drive and a hell for cars. No this time we have a USA 1st row, with Durielk and Barnes (welcome!) with a close qual time! Bobobsky got 3rd place, loosing time little by little on each corner while Zunik had problems and loose a few seconds. And finally closing the grid there is Chacal, who had engine problems again after Laguna seca and had to change engine so had a penalty and will start last. Enjoy the last race of the season! Now some (not new)NEWS: New Rfactor patch will be released soon. Remember that f1rst is using 1070 version so u will have to use that version till KA or Tyger say that we can upgrade.

Round 3 This time only 5 drivers managed to race at laguna seca track. This is a hard track, not suitable for all drivers and only the mad ones were here to race. Race started after green light. 1st corner arrived and 3 drivers had little touchs. KA, Bobobsky and Durielk. There was just a small touch, making them spin and went out of track, letting Zunik and Chacal free to fight for 1st position. On back, KA got 3rd after one lap and went in mad mode to reach the head of the race. Chacal and Zunik fought, but after Zunik went out ot track a bit Chacal got the lead. On lap 3, Chacal started to see a white smoke going out of the engine, and realized he didnt change the air intake size for the race, OUCH! He had to slow down and Zunik overtaked him,and after that KA did, with eyes in red and a strange face, pushing the car to its limits with his mad mode and trying to catch Zunik. On the back, Durielk and Bobobsky fought for 4th place but Bobobsky got the place and started to open a space between them. On lap 11 Chacal´s engine colapsed and a BIG white smoke appeared. He tried to reach pits but had to park before pitline. Marshals needed 2 laps to retire car while yellow flag was on for last 2 corners. On that lap Ka was behind Zunik and Bobobsky was far from Durielk. The race continued and when the race was about to end, Durielk had tech problems with his A1GP USA car and had to retire from race, while KA went out of the track and crashed against a barrier. Marshalls where angry with KA as he left the car in bits and smashed against the protection tyres and they had to work picking those little parts. Finally Zunik got the victory and Bobobsky got 2nd place while KA finished 3rd although he didnt finish. Now some NEWS:   The schedule have changed. Spa will be the final round for this A1GP league. Summer issues are the guilty ones. New Rfactor patch will be released soon. Remember that f1rst is using 1070 version so u will have to use that version till KA or Tyger say that we can upgrade.

First race of the season ends and it´s time to look what happened on track. Not many finished. This is a really hard track and all drivers knew that. Setup was very important this time as track have lot of ups and downs. Killing Attack came from another single seater league where he´s a top driver, and found not many ppl racing. Only one driver seem to be able to defeat the dutchman. that was Frozen. Unlucky, Frozen went out of fuel on last lap, giving the 1st place to Killing Attack. As we mentioned before, few drivers finished, only 4 in fact. MaxMotus finished 4th, without podium and with no time to enjoy finishing as he had to leave ASAP on his way to Lemans. Now some NEWS: The schedule have been moved one week and one day. The reason was that Sugo track had some contracts with another racing series and we had to move the hole schedule. From now on, deadline finish on Tuesday. SIMHQ made an interview to our boss CasH, F1 league admin (among other things). Click HERE to read the article.

LEAGUE START!!!! The new A1GP league launched this weekend. Season started at Brands Hatch, where many ppl seems to have problems with the organization of the event. Almost half of them coundt prepare their boxes and cars had to stay on trucks untill deadline. After that the organization allowed all participants to load their material onto their pits. Race will be unpredictable as many teams coudnt test during the qualify week. That means that top teams will have to overtake a lot if they want victory on this hard track. Remember that for any question/problem/doubt my mail is Chacal@f1rst3.com. See you on track!
