Monaco done on Grand Prix World. Wurz took pole with Fisi third, but the race saw Coulthard win, Fisi second and Wurz fifth. Fisichella leads the WDC, whilst I'm second in the constructors - a point behind Ferrari. I've also signed a works deal with Goodyear for two seasons. -
Short has got to start spending for the fans to win back his trust, and we need rid of some of the awful, cowardly, gutless, greedy millionaires that don't give a turd. Duncan Watmore showed more determination in 20 minutes than that lot did all match. -
There are 8 grades (A*, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, U). C or above is a pass and they are exams you take between 16-18 years old. Most unis look for passes in 3 A-levels.Matthew77258 said:Wait, what is a 'good' mark to get in your A levels? Or how does the marking scheme work? What even are your A levels? -
Bookmark the page? :pPeteTheDuck said:This forum needs a save feature on comments like these. I wanna look back at these in years to come and laugh. -
I got B, C and D at AS, in maths, physics and history but the latter may change as it's getting remarked. -
Im really nervous :s
Too short blah blah blah

Race five (Spain) and I've gone from 4th and 7th on the grid to a solid 3rd and 5th. Irvine won the race, meaning Ferrari lead the WCC (with me second) and Fisichella leads the WDC as Schumacher was third and Hakkinen retired with an engine failure.
I've just worked out that if I manage to get the title sponsor and works deals I'm aiming for, I could earn and extra £12,745,000 next season without actually signing any further cash sponsor deals! (Currently only Komatsu are signed).
Things are going well! -
I could do a better job than Crofty ;)RevolvingPrawn said:
My guess would be that he's either replacing Crofty for the Sky F1 commentary team, or he's been offered a paid job to write articles about F1 (both would be pretty damn sweet!).mike96 said:fIsince08 said:

Not to be a bad influence, but the first year of Uni is just a giant p*ss up. With a bit of work in between. You would've been fine to run the game alongside that, but I'm sure afrodude will do a great job as well :pfIsince08 said:Ok guys, I'm going to say this now to give you plenty warning.
I won't be able to continue running the game after this season due to something that's happening, and the fact that I'll be at uni next year. If you're interested in taking over then PM me about it :)
Hmm, are you getting married? :p
Or he's going to Uni in India so that he can pose as Mr and Mrs Rohan already grown up child, but because the internet out there is patchy at best he may not be able to run the predictor game properly ;)
If all goes to plan I can say what on Sunday. -

Races 3 & 4 done with another 2 front rows. Fisi brought home a podium in Argentina, whilst I finished fourth and fifth at Imola. With my staff deals sorted, I'm now working on sponsors. Marlboro look set to become my title sponsors, with me also getting works deals with Ford, Mobil 1 and Goodyear soon I hope. I've started work now on the chassis for next season too, and my new factory upgrades will be ready for next year.

Great idea, but spam bot posts have been more than 40 characters! -
Race 2 and a fantastic bit of timing on my behalf led to Fisi leading a 1-2 off the line in Brazil. It was raining and I sent my boys out on inters straight away, handily just before the rain came down heavier. The race itself and Fisi dropped to sixth, whilst Wurz brought home another third place.
I've managed to sign Coulthard and Diniz on three-year contracts. Diniz pays for Coulthard's salary (and a bit more), whilst I've managed to get some great deals with staff too (mostly on two-year contracts). I've had to settle for a three-star chief designer, but I could do worse and he's only on a one year deal.
So for 1999:
Driver 1: David Coulthard (1999-2001)
Driver 2: Pedro Diniz (1999-2001)
Test/Reserve Driver: Pierre Raimbeaux (1998-2003)
Commercial Manager: Ekrem Sami (1999-2000)
Chief Designer: Osamu Goto (1999)
Technical Director: Pat Symonds (1998-2000)
Chief Mechanic: Mick Ainsley-Cowlishaw (1998-2000) -
Soo.... M'Vila made his debut in an U21 match today. He got sent off for headbutting an 18 year old... -
I only watched 20 minutes of it until MOTD started.Hughesy said:fIsince08 said:
I thought it looked better than what the BBC used to do.Hughesy said:My god Football League highlights on Channel 5 is beyond shit.... It's more like s chat show than a highlight show.
Did you actually watch it though? It was awful, there was more chat than highlights, and no structure as they went to Championship then L2 and so on. You should read the tweets about it, 99% of people hated it. I love watching football highlights, but I'll never be watching it again....

Started a new Grand Prix World save, this time with Benetton. It's immediately harder, but a long term project. First race done, Fisi got pole on softs and Wurz was fourth on the hard tyre. Finished first and third in the race, and hired David Coulthard for next season. Now I want to try and get Diniz as number 2 to pay his salary. -

I think we need a new squad, not just goalie...sjsharp2010 said:
well if that's the case you need a new goalkeeper not a new striker :pfIsince08 said:We're gonna win 5-4! -
We're gonna win 5-4! -
3-0 at half time and Adam Johnson is captain. We're screwed. -
Same old same old, nothing will change until Ellis Short starts spending.Hughesy said:@fIsince08 Welcome to the new season..... :# -
An update on this: @afrodude41 will be running the game next season as he was the only person to PM me. Best of luck!

The new Amazon Top Gear apparently has a budget of £160 million! And there will be at least 36 episodes. -
Well, that took a while to clean! -
What the hell?
