    What is countback?

    Either way, congrats to AMS. I'll take a tie with first but falling to second on a technicality any day!
    It's basically, whoever submitted their predictions first takes the higher position. So as AMS submitted first, that's why he won.

    Back at Jerez 1997 that's what happened in Qualifying, so pole was taken by the person who set the time first.

  2. Well, I'm not surprised at all really! I watched TFI Friday and when Lewis Hamilton asked him about it, it was obvious he was, and they did some stuff at Dunsfold too (where their studio and track is).

    I'll definitely watch it, I wonder who the other two presenters will be though.

    And the final episode with Clarkson, Hammond and May is apparently going out on Sunday 28th June!

  3. Really good race, and Chandhok's crash just at the time when they had to change cars spiced it up a lot, and I was genuinely confused as to where the cars would end up, which never usually happens to me! Really good racing throughout, so a good race.

  4. So Reddit is fantastic, and I saw this question come up in /r/AskReddit which I thought I'd post here as I reckon there could be some funny experiences :p 

    The question is: What is the dumbest thing you got punished for in school?


    For me, and I'm sure a lot of people will have had this, but it is just so unfair when you're punished as a group, even though you weren't doing anything wrong.



    The best example of this happened when I was 13, and I was on a table of 4 in a DT lesson. I've always been a quiet guy (doesn't really contribute to lessons, doesn't muck about, gets on with the job), and in this class we were told many times to not talk, and I respected this, but the other 3 dimwits on my table didn't and the teacher said the table would get a lunch time detention.



    Anyway, this happened once and I went along, but the next time I just got up and said to the teacher 'this is ridiculous, I've not done anything wrong and these idiots won't shut up'.



    I moved tables and wasn't kept behind again, and after I said it I thought to myself 'ah god, they're gonna give me grief for calling them idiots, aren't they'. Amazingly they didn't, and I think it gave me a new sense of confidence after saying it lol.


  5. Thanks man, I subscribed to some of those.

    My favourite subreddit so far is /r/RaceTrackDesigns

    I've been posting a couple of mine up already and the comments have been great, and it's so nice to discuss circuit design with like-minded people. The WEC reddit is good too.

    Also /r/tifu is good too :p 

    I'll have a look into RES too, thanks.
    And where not? haha
    No of course you are! It's just no one else really uploads their own designs so it's nice to look at some others by people who like doing the same and then chatting about them too!

  7. Alright, that's cool, thanks. I just looked at available countries and while it is in Austria and France, it isn't in Spain (which is annoying as that's where I'll be spending 3 of the 5 weeks :/ )

    But thanks for the suggestions! Marco Polo is one I definitely wanted to watch, and Breaking Bad too! I watched one episode months ago at school and was hooked! :p 

  8. Well thanks for the opinions on Netflix guys. I'm definitely going to get my free month and then I'll see how I get on with it.

    Am I right in thinking that you can't get it in other countries though? I'm away in Austria, France and Spain for 5 consecutive weeks in July/August so does that mean I won't be able to watch anything?

    Or can I use those proxies you said about?! :p 

    On the TopGear subject though, I think Netflix is probably their best option. As you said, they'll probably give them the most creative freedom and I'm sure that's what they'll want.

    And by the way, what TV series/movies would you recommend watching on Netflix? I've got a few I want to watch but I know there's so much on there, I'll miss some gems no doubt.

    I don't quite see how you can expect a discussion to end when you post things like 'when you've grown up a little', or when you call other people's comments 'pathetic'. Calling someone's intelligence 'shocking' as well. isn't that's surely just begging for a response?!

    You've made your dislike for Project CARS very clear, and that you have a dislike for people discussing the game here. Myself and LiteralZero have said many times now that we have no problem with people doing that, just as long as it relates to some F1 discussion, and that's what's happened so far. I myself have said that at least three times now.

    You've misunderstood me @PeteTheDuck ...

    I didn't mean the discussion about Pcars has ended - I merely meant that the discussion between the other member and I was over, as I didn't want to continue it as it serves no purpose...

    What started all this off is other members attitudes...Why they feel the need to post comments which instigate other members into making responses is beyond me, and quite frankly, is most likely why this forum is the way it is!.

    As I have said before MANY times; I DO NOT HAVE ANY ISSUE NOW WITH MEMBERS DISCUSSING PCARS...END OF DISCUSSION

    P.S. I don't mean that sarcastically, I don't know how else to say it anymore...

    I haven't misunderstood you. I meant the discussion between you and the other member too. I'm saying, how can you expect that discussion to be over when you post comments like that about them?

    I think you're as much to blame as other members frankly. You're just as responsible for 'posting comments which instigate other members into making responses'.

    I think this topic has run its course now, so I'm closing it. I can't see much else coming out of this which will be constructive.

    mmpaw this thread IS the right place its YOU that is having a tempor tantrum were all writing on the no career mode thats missing from F1 2015  pcars has one so we use that  to compare it to and READ THE THREAD  TITLE  M8  BEFORE U WRITE UTTER CRAP


    Didn't I state this discussion has ended...? - Your intelligence is shocking...

    I don't quite see how you can expect a discussion to end when you post things like 'when you've grown up a little', or when you call other people's comments 'pathetic'. Calling someone's intelligence 'shocking' as well. isn't that's surely just begging for a response?!

  11. I feel a sense of deja vu writing this!

    Once again, there is no problem with anyone discussing Project CARS in this forum, as long as it is related in some way to F1 games.

    People are allowed to have their opinions, it's a free world and I honestly think some people are taking opposite opinions too seriously. There's no need to say someone is being 'pathetic' or 'ridiculous' or 'childish' or 'stupid' for having a different opinion.

    It's funny how these squabbles always seem to involve the same members too...

  12. Something I'd really like to know, (and hopefully @LiteralZero and/or @Britpoint are allowed to answer this) is whether the TecPro barriers deform when you hit them?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2icY5k9pByE

    This video clearly shows them in action, and I've spoken about this being in the game for years. They really affect the energy involved in a crash. In previous games they've remained static, but do they now move when you hit them? That would be awesome if they did.

  13. I don't think there is a way to check actually! But I don't think I've seen more than 14 before!

    Actually, didn't @Matthew77258 write a post ages back (possibly on the old forum so it would have been Kudos instead) about something to do with the forum (I may be wrong)? Anyway, that got a lot of likes/kudos.
