Assetto Corsa Comp Round 3 Laguna seca

Yes I have the DLC, I participated in the previous round ok

 

Hello guys, it's my time to comment the race.
Laguna Seca is one of the most difficult tracks in my opinion, and in combination of one of my worst race ever the result was not good.
In the first part of the race I was unlucky due to some bump from Henry and Simone, but anyway a podium was possible.
But, in the second part of the race I made an error for each lap and instead of recover the race I have bumped Henry and luckily reached the 5th place.
I'm not happy because the possible result was much more than the 5th place, but above all I want to say sorry to Henry. Every race in which I bump someone, is a race to forget.
I'm very happy for the Matteo's win. I'm very proud of you.
Regarding the live, I think Eike Sky has a big aptitude, and I hope he will continue to do that. Congrats!
See you on Zandvoort, one of my favourite track ever.

P.S. How is it calculated the team's standing?

 

Same here - I'm hoping that'll give me a chance to bugger off at the start, and stay far enough ahead of you to take the win
I'll have to see if the online races use the same start UI - as have never been the pole sitter for a race start in ACC...

 

My race has been pretty intense from the start to the last 4-5 mins, when I finally took the lead.
After a good start, in which I gained a position on the inside of the first corner, I started to fight with Andrew Wlliams for a couple of laps, until I touched very slightly his rear bumper when turning in into the second corner, sending him into the sand. I decided to wait for him, as it was surely my fault, and the duel started again without losing position on both sides I guess. After I managed to overtake Andrew, I was chasing hard mr. Gymer, that pulled up a wall against my attacks for at least 5 or 6 laps I guess. In the end, as he remarked, he decided to let my pass at the first corner to defend his podium without losing time on the drivers behind us.
At 6 or 7 mins to the end I reached Mark Jonzo, that tried to resist on the outside at the corkscrew pulling a late braking that sent him into the sand, so I could finally relax during the last part of the race, as the other drivers were at a safe distance.
Grats to Simon and Andrew for the podium, and many thanks to Eike Sky for his brilliant commentary!

See you for the next

 

@ Matteo, i wasnt even trying to defend at Corkscrew as knew you had a good run on me up the hill on the left side and would get past me anyway. I just stayed wide right but couldnt see where you were even with my Rift, that brief hesitation and being on the marbles meant the car couldnt slow in time to turn in so i cruised around the tarmac edge to the right of the corkscrew drop but Simon scampered past as well before i could re-gain the track

The broadcast missed you taking the lead and also AW getting past me for 3rd a few laps later.

 

My race in a nutshell

 

Well caught! That's almost exactly how I lost it and span - only I lost it on the 2nd catch

 

It was a xxxxx race , knew I would suffer from my "all to happy to throttle " mind
on this track, xxx its hard even with TC for good sake.
And boy did I every time I got some decent speed/place it backfire on me , it was
very near DNF but I hate to do that. After got me self down to 26 off 25 it was a
hunt for every little inch I could get back. Porsche`s.
But we keept Eike busy, not a calm moment through the race. Just love he´s commentary

 

Guess Rob missed this post, so here is my replay file.
