All good things have and end, and this is the end of the 2005 F1RST3 RH2004 Championship. We've passed good and bad times (Never had so many problems in a year lol) but I want to thank all the community for giving us such a great support. We had during all year great fights, and awesome performances (yes I'm talking about lucas :P) so I'm very happy of being part of it. Anyway after 3+ years non-stop online racing I will make a little pause, so the winter league will be admined again by Mr. Great CasH. You can't understand how much I admire him after being in his role. Such a big energy is not from this planet :P. Another important thing is the discussion on what championships will be done in the Winter. No fear! F1 will be present, but we plan to do more leagues and start the first one based on rFactor (F3 Euroseries Champ). Express your opinions HERE. I'm especially excited about our future, so hope to share it with you. And finally to the GREATS of this season. Below the top performers in EXPERT, AMATEUR and TEAMS are listed, but let me ask you for some hurra's in the name of YRTEMMYS!!! EXP CHAMP LUCAS!!! AMA CHAMP and FUSION TEAM!!!! TEAMS CHAMPS.

I couldn't imagine a better finish for this amazing championship!! One tenth of a second was the difference between the top 2 runners killing-attack and super-fast elmar. 3rd on the podium was our champion yrtemmys showing that although having the champ in his pocket he didn't slow down. In Amateur, we were fortunate to see another win from recordman Lucas, followed by the brazilian miracle LulaSenna and his teammate Marlboro_Br1. This time it was close!! As I will comment the championship closure in another news issue I'll just put the last LapChart of this season :) so you can see the big battle for 1st position.

Big relaxation from our champion yrtemmys that "just" qualed 8th. Pole was for killing-attack that shifted his performance as he wants the copper cup (yes, that's copper not bronze :P ) as 3rd in the championship. Contestant Drial Did a good qual to, so expect a close battle! elmar returned with a faboulous performance (2nd) and top 3 in qual was completed by champ runner-up martinwcox. In AMA lucas obtained the unbeatable record of sweeping all poles of the season!!! Congrats for that. He won the championship many races ago, but he will be remembered as Magic-Lucas from now on ;). The two lula's (named so for different reasons :) ) got into 2nd and 3rd place. This time Senna beated Hakkinen :D. Here again the big battle is for 3rd to 7th place so big fights are expected. This year it seems we only have bad luck, and this time the forums don't work. As it's the last race and not many qualed ,we will extend the deadline as much as needed. Anyway for those wanting to organize de heat org, you can use our old No-Brakes Heat Org Forum . Anyway this is not mandatory, so you won't be able to start if someone doesn't reply. One more thing: Counter shows a WRONG deadline, as it points to 2am CEST. Deadline is 24CEST!!! Good Luck for the LAST RH2004 F1 Championship!!!

And the CHAMPION is: YRTEMMYS!!!!!!! Congrats to our new Champion, one race before season ending. Martinwcox fought hard till the last round, but yrtemmys deserved the win, and clinched it with another win! In AMA another one for Recordman Lucas, that is only at one pole of getting all poles of the season. He and his teammate ufo have clinched the top two positions of the champ. Anyway in the last round the 3rd places of the EXP, AMA and TEAMS championship will be decided, so I expect good fights for the last race. I want to apologize to all people who suffered problems during this race. There's an issue with some installation of RH2004 v1.05 that cause CTD when someone exits the session. We recommend to stay in the session for next race. You have to understand that we can't control the installations of all of you. So I will encourage again that you install from HERE. Also recommended is the CTD patch from HERE Good Luck for the last race!! and have fun!!

NEWSFLASH!!! Problem with client is fixed!! So you can do your races as scheduled! Deadline will be extended till Sunday!! and then we will go on with China! Thx to our Developers Tygernoot and Killing-Attack for the fast fix. Cya on track very soon, Zunik

Great pole for yrtemmys, that now needs a 3rd place to clinch the title, or just loose less than 17 points compared to martinwcox. We got a nice comeback from Kimi in 3rd position, we espect a good performance from him after some time rest. He's in the best country in the world so he has to win! ;). killing-attack not only had time to launch rFactor support but also did an great performance with a 2nd position, and now he's in a good position to fight for 3rd spot in championship with Kimi. In AMA the champion and pole recordman, added another one. Actually top 3 was the same than in Brazil. I expect a good race there. Sorry for posting so late, keeping it short for this reason. Good race to the ones that didn't do it still :).

Again, Snakey_UK did some more videos of the Brazil GP with new features. Have a look at them HERE. Very nice work !!! Now let's go the Lap Chart. We can see how different strategies worked this time. Anyway Killing-Attack had a superior pace than others and this gave him the win! Also some errors are present ;)

Close race this was! Although Killing-Attack was unachievable there were many battles in this track. Differences of 2-5 seconds after the race were common. Congrats also to champs leader yrtemmys (3rd) that finished just behind martinwcox (2nd) and now only needs four more points than martin to clinch the championship before the last race. In AMA lucas didn't have it so easy as Lula_Hakkinen and Andre_Linck finished close to him. Expecting logs to analyse the gap evolution. I I'm sad to announce that we have to give some hard PENALTIES this time, and my opinion is that they were caused by not knowing the rules. Be sure you have read THE RULES before racing, and if any questions contact us by mail, in forum or in client chat. Now let's go to the beatiful and challenging suzuka track, one of my favourites.   Yes, I will post the lap chart later :D F1 RH2004 Brazil- Interlagos Race Podium Class EXP Qual Podium Class AMA killing-attack Lowland 2 Lucas Road Killers martinwcox Downforce LulaHakkinen Road Killers yrtemmys Fusion Andre_Linck Brazucas

I'm happy to announce that for 1st time this season (though I may be wrong :P) the AMA qual was closer than the EXP qual. Maybe our poleman Lucas is getting tired? This time he could make it only 161 thousands faster than Lula-hakkinen, and leading the brazilian "armada" Marlboro_F1. Team Brazucas manager did a great effort and he putted his whole team to race their home track. Well done LulaSenna!! Also important to say that top 15 were within a second. In EXP martin was again on pole, with an incredible time of 1:06.7, only followed by near from Gnarus. 3rd on the grid is in his comeback JuanFran, that had some mechanical problems with his pedals ;). Only top 7 in EXP were within the same second. I want to remember you, that due to the GP being in America, deadline will be one day later than usual (Tuesday 23.59 CEST) t oallow our Brazilian friends to go to the Real GP and see Fernando Alonso become F1 Champion 8). I think I'm missing some things this time, so feel free to contact me for any questions.

First of all, Snakey_UK did some more videos of the Belgium GP and reposted some videos from past GP's. Have a look at them HERE. Very nice work !!! Now let's go the Lap Chart.Really awesome fight this time! We had 3 different race leaders, and a crazy fight between killing-attack and yrtemmys (all race within a second!) although yrtemmys had to give his lead and almost a podium place due to his penalty. This time I did the lap chart of TZB HEAT 1 AMA sended by ufo. 5 top guys fighting for the win. We can se how ToSlow lost his 2nd position due to an error (maybe forced) and how Kuschall passed ufo with a better pit strategy. I have received some inputs to add even more features. Everything is welcomed especially if it will raise the quality of the league. Thx for all your support.

Hope everyone had same fun as me in this track, but I know who had the best fun. Congrats to K-A (our multitasking guy ;) ) for this great win! and of course congratulation to Lucas for his win in AMA. In the Expert podium two canadians followed: Gnarus, and yrtemmys, that combined with the crash of martinwcox has the biggest chance of being our world champ! Fusion Team did a great performance and I can risk to say they're virtual team champs. In the AMA podium, we can find the return of the Lula-Hakkinen and a very good performance of ToSlow, as he always does, no matter what's going on :). Sorry for the misunderstandings that caused the rush in changing the deadline, but it was a not controlled thing from us, I want to apollogize for all troubles it caused. I hope we will have more entries next GP as it'll be dry, and in a 2 week period, and I don't expect any sudden changes (hope it doesn't come out and F1 mod for rFactor :P). This time we had to give one penalty , try to be as careful as possible, you only can loose a race in first corner. I hope everybody in the league reads the news, as most of the times it seems some people don't. This is the best way to know about changes, if you're a loyal reader, plz tell everyone to do so! Again I miss some logs to create the Lap Chart. I hope you enjoy this feature as much as I do, and hope to get more logs. Sadly I didn't get ANY log from ANY amateur heat, and still miss some heats of expert. Maybe I should check for cut every heat so I get all logs in next race? 8).

No, don't get scared! I'm just back for this week, as our League-Admin Zunik is out for the weekend. Sorry for the later than usual news post, but due to the synchonising of the servers, some missed the Qualify deadline. The ones that contacted me are added now. I guess therefore the grids are now final, as the ones wanting to be added (ONLY for this time!!!) had their chance. Now for the results, which it is all about. Even with a short week and therefore less practice, some guys set some astonishing laps again!  In EXP Chris (yrtemmys) did it again for Team Fusion, Martinwcox being sandwitched by him and Fusion-driver Gnarus. Hope he likes that ;). AMA is a matter on it's own. Do I need to mention that Lucas had pole? Amazing eh? :P What IS a great job is that ToSlow prevented Team Road Killers from a total Top-3. And that, knowing ToSlow has personal problems. GREAT job! And again from here GL from ALL your friends in F1RST3! Enough, as when Zunik returns he will fire me for talking way too much, as usual. Off to some more, very much needed practice at Spa! VERY much needed for my Teams LRT and LRT2, as they don't really score lately. Guess I must fire some there :P Have FUN guys!

First of all some VERY IMPORTANT INFO. I will be away this weekend, so for any problem regarding your qualification, plz mail CasH so he can fix it.your logs. Remember also this is a short week, so plz arrange your heats ASAP!! BlueChris fixed the deadline of the server, so beware the deadline will be back on 24CEST. Don't miss the qual!!! And now HWG to the Lap Charts. Unfortunately I couldn't create the AMA chart, because of lack of data! I only have 3 out of the top 10!!! In EXP we can follow how things developed with the top guys. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do 8). Cya in the sunny Spa! :D

As usual a rain race means different results. This time it was not different, and we have some newcomers to the podium! In EXP martin did a great win and cutted 20 more points in the championship standings. Drial finished again on podium, and shows he has developed into a fast and consistent driver, he'll be a championship contender next year! syn is the newcomer in EXP, showing his great control in the wet. In AMA lucas was just in another galaxy. Anyway all the others were quite packed, and WEST and Snakey_UK showed a typical british performance under their normal weather conditions. The AMA champ seems solved in the first two positions, but there will be an exciting finish in the fight for 3rd, same situation as for Team's championship, where FUSION and Downforce have a nice lead, but others fight still for 3rd. We're in a short week schedule, so remember TOMORROW is the deadline to qual for Belgium, don't leave it to the last minute as you may loose the deadline I have been preparing the F1 chart, anyway many logs are missing. Please send ME (watchout new e-mail) your logs.Missing are: EXP: TZA 1(partial)+2; TZB 2. AMA: TZB 1(partial)+2, TZA 1. Hope I get them ASAP so I can show you how the race developed.

Da nu era is heeah!! F1RST3 was just presented to you last week, and this is the F1RST GP after it. We're mad about F1 so we need our little dose F1 every two weeks, and we're insane after a long pause!!! Yes this time to make it even more difficult it was under rain, hahaha! And 30 EXPERTS and 16 AMATEURS showed that nothing will stop them, it's the final sprint to achieve the best position in the standings, some even to fight to win it! And the masters showed what they have as gaps here have been bigger than normally. In EXP top 4 has a clear advantage over the rest, with martinwcox being an awesome polesitter. K-A and jos showed that dutchs are masters on water, while champ leader yrtemmys will sell his lead very expensive. In AMA recordman lucas did an incredible pole with 7 tenths of a seconds gap to ToSlow. the 3rd, LulaSenna is even further behind @ 1,6 seconds of lucas.. WOW!! After reading all my crap, just remember to go to Heat Org Forum and organize your heat! And for the race don't forget the umbrella! You liked the F1 chart? So remember to send ME (watchout new e-mail) your logs. They will be published in the F1 news to show a little more on how races heve developed. Read HERE if you don't know what I'm talking about .

Race event for Germany - Long Hockenheim CANCELLED!!! Due to the problems that happened the last days we wont be able to race in the awaited Long Hockenheim track. We need to give the development team more time to set up again the client and be able to run the leagues again. Next event will be Italy - Monza in WET!! So you'll need the extra time as finding a good setup for the rain will be difficult here. Anyway I want to emphazise that this words come here after a non stop work from the admin team: Killing-Attack (especially) and all others, all I cna say is we're working very hard and love this community! A good idea is to keep a close track to This Thread were all news will be reported. For any questions about the league please mail ME, so developers can work all the time they offer to us. Cya in Monza   NEWSFLASH: DOWNLOAD CLIENT FIX BEFORE YOU QUAL!! PLZ READ This Thread

As a new feature here in Hungary we have decided ths to your collaboration to publish a lap chart to see how someone won or lost his race. Any further inputs will be welcome.

Go for them!!! It's time for the Daikiri's, San Fransico's, Mojito's, Beer's after finishing the longest race of the season. It took 99 minutes of fighting for our Rocketman martinwcox, followed closely by championship leader yrtemmys. And after fixing his problems and changing to renault in 3rd position arrived Killing-Attack, showing this is one of his favourites tracks (crazy guy or?). In Amateur lucas did a thunder-race to overcome the 30 second penalty given to race alone, so he put another milestone on his great season so far. Also nice to see that ToSlow finally managed to complete a race and as awaited he was on podium. His teammate bartd completed the podium and a very good result for powerful team Twister-Racing. Anyway Team Fusion continues to dominate the standings, and not even a "fusion" of other teams would menace their leadership. Fight for 2nd position is tough though, and I expect a close championship final. We're headin now to a one week "rest" (some already testing on next track) and then we will go back to our beloved one week qual, one week race, with period ending on Mondays, after the now called JULY MADNESS!! A soft welcome expects us, as we're facing a very fast track, with the much missed long straights within the beatiful Schwarzwald, just cutted by some chicanes, where the master of it will dominate the qualifying sessions. AGAIN WE STRONGLY recommend that everyone MUST download and install 1.05 fully ! 50 mb+ installer packs. You can get them HERE. Now it's the perfect time to do it as we have a one week period rest before we get back into action for Long Hockenheim. A new feature is being prepared and will be published in the F1 news and in other leagues to show a little more on how races did develop. Read HERE . Right now missing 3 heats: TZB EXP HEAT 3, TZC EXP HEAT 1 and TZB AMA HEAT 2. Have a nice holidays!

Sun shines, girls all over the beach, daikiris, cold beers, mojitos, and nothing to do. This is what most of the grid might be doing now as Summer time is in it's maximum point! Half of the grid abandoned us for a well deserved Holidays, so for us real-hardcorers, it's time to gain some points over them!!! Main goal, finish in the Hungarian Hell as it's the longest race of the season. elmar is on fire!! Hope he doesn't burn in this Hell :P. He got another pole, and judging his advantage he will win this one as easy as he did in germany. Behind we find Drial, that is doing a consistent championship and increasing every race his performance, and martinwcox, that tries to cut his gap towards the championship leader, that did and error on his lap and is placed 5th. I'm sure we will find some surprises on the EXP podium of the race as this race is more about consistency than speed! AMA is the kingdom of lucas, 13th pole in a row, he even scheduled his holidays taking into account the F1 schedule, that's love for the sport! ToSlow could beat ufo this time, let's see if he finally fixes his tyre problems (Bridgestone) ;) and can finish a race. AGAIN WE STRONGLY recommend that everyone should download and install 1.05 fully ! 50 mb+ installer packs. You can get them HERE.

elmar is unstoppable!! half a minute lead over the second!! And after him 4 drivers came within 10 seconds difference, this shows elmar's supremacy in this track. It's a shame he didn't race in some GP's this season, as he's showing a great performance. Other drivers coming on podium are not new, martin and hucul collected some more cups to their collection. Top 3 seems clear, but people is pushing hard to close their gaps to the leaders so watch out! In AMA lucas did another MEGA-race and arrived half a minute before ufo. It seems the 1-2 in AMA is defined last races, and so it shows in the championship standings. In championship standings I want to remark the good result from UK racing that climbed again to the top 5. IMPORTANT INFORMATION We had to give some penalties in this track. I want to emphasize that people MUST know the RULES before taking part in this championship, and this guys know now why. We're having some problems with the 1.05 trackpack. We can't control it's crashes as it's something not related with our client, so WE STRONGLY recommend that everyone should download and install 1.05 fully ! 50 mb+ installer packs.
