With just a big 30 hours to go, the team is working at it’s hardest to get the site prepared for the new season start!
The site is as good as done to go live, though you could find some performance issues, and minor bugs could occur during your visit whilst we’re updating the site.
We are sorry for any bugs you encounter, but they should be fixed when we go live again on the 13th!
Thanks in advance, and we hope you will enjoy the new site Saturday!
We’re very sorry we’ve been away for a pretty long time, but we’ve been working hard behind the scenes to get something really started!
And to be honest, we’ve succeeded and even gone MUCH further than what our original intentions were, but it is here….
Grand Prix Online 2010!
Michael will be participating in the Sprint championship, which is to be held on the Sundays of each F1 weekend.
The cars are being built, but for the time we are waiting we are allowed to borrow some of the leagues cars.
While learning the cars behavior on track, we are also getting ready for the seasons first race, which will be the Bahrain Grand Prix.
The car is based on the F1 2009 model, but with some changes.
We want to wish everybody a Merry Christmas, and a happy new year!
All the best for 2010 and we hope to see you then!
It’s been a few days since the Brazilian Grand Prix now, and the season is officially over.
After the FSR Crew reviewed the Brazilian Grand Prix, 3 people in front of me got an DQ penalty, which brought me to the 14th place, scoring 1 point!!!
While the preparations for next year are already in progress, the FSR staff released the Seasons Final Results.
We are very happy with these results, as this is our first year, we didn’t expect to have high scores.
Interlagos is the venue of the Formula One Brazilian Grand Prix, located in the city of São Paulo, named after José Carlos Pace, a Brazilian Formula One driver.
Faster Than Speed scored strong points all
across the World Series in the Interlagos season finale. In the World Championship, very promising performances ended with disappointing retirements.
Montreal’s Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is a stop-start, temporary circuit. The long straights mean plenty of heavy braking, while numerous slow corners put the emphasis on strong traction and good engine torque to launch the cars out of them. A competitive car will give the drivers confidence to brake late, while also looking after the rear tyres on a circuit where teams will be running the softest of Bridgestone’s 2008 compounds.
Along with Monza, Montreal is the most demanding circuit of the year for the brakes. Overheating is not the primary concern, as the discs and pads have ample time to cool on the straights. However, the braking energies are very high, with four braking events from over 300 kph - and the other two from above 250 kph. Basic wear is therefore teams’ primary concern, and they monitor this in real time during the race. The driver may be asked to adjust the brake balance if wear levels become alarming at front or rear, and some of teams’ work in practice will focus on ensuring that brake wear levels are under control on representative race fuel loads.
Michael Pieneman has signed Rhesus Racing as a sponsor, Rhesus Racing will be visible in the sidebar and on the new helmet, which is hopefully released at the Montreal Race.
Rhesus Racing, which started in 2003, tries to be involved in as much leagues as possible, like for 2009 the Tango Dutch GT4, and the Renault Clio Cup.
Together with Rhesus Racing, Michael hopes to achieve better results, and also hopes Rhesus will win the Tango Dutch GT4 2010 cup and Renault Clio Cup 2010.
Michael Pieneman wants to congratulate Jenson Button for winning the 2009 Formula 1 World Championship.
With one round to go, he has already won the driver championship, and his team, Brawn GP, won the constructors championship.
Quote from Formula 1 :
Jenson Button went into the Brazilian Grand Prix looking for a miracle. And he found it. After 60 of the 71 laps, as Mark Webber swept to a dominant victory for Red Bull ahead of BMW Sauber’s Robert Kubica and a fighting Lewis Hamilton, he had done enough. And a late puncture for Brawn GP team mate Rubens Barrichello, which elevated him to fifth, was merely the icing on the cake.
Fuji:
Not having enough practise, and being in school a lot, I decided not no drive at Fuji.
Suzuka:
I had quite a lot of pracise at Suzuka, and felt really confident after comparing laptimes.
