Pre-race Questions:

1. Last time PRL held a Pacific region Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, it was worth double points on F1 2014. Did you like that rule?
2. With both championships wrapped up, what are your motivations and aims for the final race of the season?
3. Sauber has won the last 5 straight races. Will they make it six this week?
4. What are your thoughts on the Yas Marina circuit?

1. Last time PRL held a Pacific region Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, it was worth double points on F1 2014. Did you like that rule?
I may have won that race and therefore been the only person to score 50 points in a race, but its still a dumb rule which could have ruined a championship.
2. With both championships wrapped up, what are your motivations and aims for the final race of the season?
I'd like to win and extend my win streak, at the very least a podium would be enough to keep me content.
3. Sauber has won the last 5 straight races. Will they make it six this week?
It isn't a certainty, but that will be the aim.
4. What are your thoughts on the Yas Marina circuit?
Among my favourites, great for overtaking, has challenging corners, love it.

1. Last time PRL held a Pacific region Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, it was worth double points on F1 2014. Did you like that rule?
I didn't like that rule at all. Hated it, didn't think it was fair.

2. With both championships wrapped up, what are your motivations and aims for the final race of the season?
I think my aim will be to see if I can get another 4th position to make it 10 for the season and maybe make myself a trophy for that 

3. Sauber has won the last 5 straight races. Will they make it six this week?
Considering I'll be aiming for 4th, it'll be up to Jacko 

4. What are your thoughts on the Yas Marina circuit?
Thanks to a friend who once read it wrong, it now always reminds me of pasta marinara.

No problem mate, remember to sign up for Season 10 though. A mere copy and paste of last season's sign up into the new forum section will do, along with a new speedtest!

Q: 2nd
Put in a lap only 0.2 off my PB but lost out to Bozza. Kart had a lap 3 seconds quicker that was clearly glitched though (hence the restart).

R: 1st
What an epic battle. The lead swung between myself, Bozza and murph with craig and dani in hot pursuit. Undercut worked for craig and dani, with the latter moving from P5 to the net lead with her strategy. Bozza had to replace a wing, and with craig on a 2 stop, I passed murph and dani to take the lead which I never relinquished. Maz had caught up after early trouble due to the massive loss of time the front pack was causing one another for an astonishing P2, which probably would have been dani's had she not lost connection to the PSN (which seemed likely for everyone with the maintenance message on lap 14). 6 people deserved a podium this race, but there was only space for 3. GG.
