Bahrain bores me to tears although I'v just got my first win there. I quite enjoy the new one in Korea though.

I had Hammy do it last night at Istanbul; either that or he was ridiculously quick on the primes.

I find it happens more if you ignore your initial pit request.

I have taken the difficulty up to legendary now on my 3rd season, i was 4 secs a lap quicker in P1, 2 & 3 and Q1, 2 & 3 in Bahrain and won by 52 secs

Season 2 was no where near as easy!

I've heard Hungary described as boring but I found it quite interesting.

Had a up and down race at Suzuka, fought my way up the grid from 15th in my crappy Lotus to ninth and then binned it at 130R on the last lap............

Hungary has always been good to drive. The track itself isn't boring.

Bahrain's not bad, its just the tight corners that belong to a go kart track that give me the irrits...

Had a great race at Melbourne last night, started seventh, spun Vettel around on the first lap lol and then proceeded to pulling some awesome Kobayashi like moves on Button and Massa, I ended up finishing second behind Hamilton. Good times.

Yeah the flow of Abu-Dhabi is top drawer and Singapore is brilliant when you get into where the track goes. I find if you do a wet race from the back of the grid you learn the track faster. Try it it worked for me. Thats how i learned Singapore and the new silverstone section.

Rain makes it easier.

I had the race of my life on Catalunya the other day actually. Am in a Mac now and I managed to take pole by half a tenth. What followed in the race was nailbiting, a straight fight between me and Lewis. Every lap we were within a tenth of each other and even posted an identical lap at one point. I hit every braking point and apex 100% and couldn't shake him.

I decided to pit first as the tyres were going off. Lo and behold I got held in my pitbox and lost a second or two and rejoined in traffic. I managed to cut my way through and then posted two fastest laps. Lewis pitted and rejoined right next to ne but I swept round the outside into turn one. And it was back to the way it was, posting the same lap times.

I held on to win, so satisfying. I actually smiled at one point. A glimpse of the games potential, which was then ****ed all over in the next two which were the buggiest and glitchiest yet. *picard*

Shoulda just chopped across his nose going into a corner, woulda probably spun him around.

I tend to spin them out without even trying to chop them, just going through the corner. Not generally the slow guys, but when the leaders come through to lap me, assuming they don't all go into cruise mode, or if i'm holding them up from my silly qualifying position(1st year lotus full sim). They just can't figure out how I can be so slow and then spin with no contact and me not weaving and them not looking to try to pass.

Not bad for my number 2 driver:

YouTube - Not bad for MY number 2 driver!

1:59.7's Pretty darn impressive for a 9 year old I reckon (Even with assists).
So if my 9 year old son can race this well and this clean, even knowing when to back out of lapping traffic until safe to do so, and put a full 20 minutes concentration into a race (Not including completing a full quali being fastest in all 3 sessions), how come there are so many (obviously older) drivers out there who can't seem to do it online?
