F1Time - S21 - Race14 - Interlagos, Brazil

Motivated by the fact that the gap in TC has come down to 10 points, i decided to race again in Brazil. I was expecting challenges from Christian, Rogerio and Cacador. Cacador doesnt seem to be interested in his Home GP and Rogerio settled for old GB. In the end, it was Christian again and he is the tough guy now :). Higher temperatures at Brazil and having only Pips, Christian was forced to go 3 stops against my 2 stops. The lenghty Pit gave me an advantage and i had an easy win. But i was disappointed on missing POLE. I wasnt expecting it, but at the end when i saw that the gap was just .019, i was surprised. Christian didnt do me any favor as he finished only fifth and more importantly below Nezam. Nezam came second above Gago. 'Cisko' Benjamin utilised his fav track to score 5 points and got away from the relegation threat. Lanca disappointed as he had lots of wear and finally had to settle for 7th.
In C1, though Eld seemed to be slower than Robertas in the WarmUp, Eld fared better in Qual. Robertas got over Eld on Lap11 eventually, but the superior crew determined the race win yday. While Eld had stops of 4.8 and 5.2 secs, Robertas could manage only 6.2 and 8.2 pits. Robertas tried to close the gap, but the tyre wear in the last only further widened it. With the win, Eld cut down the gap to 13 points and moved to second spot. Nuno, the last race winner, came third and also got into third posn in the DC standings. Woodi came sixth and is placed fourth in DC. The Malaysian Brothers are right now at positions 5 and 6 in the DC. "Is it really their time?" I wonder!
The Game in the meantime is on an expansion mode as TaBu opened groups 9-16 in Class 5. At this point when i am righting this, managers are filled in till Group 14. The Server has been working well for the past few days and hope that it can withstand the new surge.
