I had a go on the daily races yesterday during my lunch break. Fucking disaster😁
First race, as it was loading the track I somehow got disconnected, which lost me a few hundred points.
I'm driver rating D but was on the cusp of going up to C until that happened.
So, tried again, went for the Gr 4 race at Monza and qualified 3rd in a mix of D with a few C rated drivers.
Started really well, I think the front 2 forgot to adjust their traction control, as it was a standing start.
So yeah, I led for the first 3 laps out of 4, then on lap 3 I received a 0.5 second penalty for cutting the second chicane. The car behind was a second down but that penalty at Monza is on a fast straight so you lose more than 0.5.
Not all bad, only two cars over took me and in the slip stream I felt like I could get my place back.
On lap 4, the first chicane witnessed a murder. The poor bloke in 2nd broke earlier than I would brake, I also carried that slipstream speed, I booted him up the arse and into the shadow realm. For which I recieved a 2 second penalty and an eventual 7th place.
Dammit😂
