Right this career I’m sticking at.

Bahrain….
Qualifying
Piastri p18.

#

He’s into q2

#

Ffs a Williams blocks lando in the middle sector..

#

And now a red bull on the next lap. What is this 😂

#

Lando starts p15. Just got blocked on 2 laps and then made a mistake on last lap of q2. We move to the race.

lament ivy
#

Race:

We attempted a one stop with lando. We got p12. Was working nicely till gasly and kmag got us on on lap 52 and 53. Just ran out of tyre life near the end. But doubt we would have done better with a different strategy.
Oscar : p18. He had good Pace at the start. Did a soft medium soft with him and he got up to p14 but eventually finished all the way down in p18.

#

No just slow on mediums lol😂. Umm I’d love to keep him but think I’m gonna sign Danny ric for now

#

But going on f1 23 now for a little while to try Qatar

#

I may get a wheel again. I used to play on 105 ai and no assists but on the controller I’m awful 😋

#

Just no reaction

#

Traction

#

And manual gears obviously

#

Umm only about 95 I think

#

You on controller ?

#

Wheel is amazing

#

Oh yeah I have racing line on too 😂

lament ivy
#

Jeddah…………..

#

PIASTRI P17.
Lando : p13
Now time for the race

lament ivy
#

Race:
Lando stays p13. We tried a two stop medium medium hard, however we encountered too much traffic when pitting the first time which cost us several seconds.

Piastri was running well and in p14 at one stage however he had no pace on hards and ultimately finished p17.

We have some small upgrades coming to Australia hopefully.

lament ivy
#

Australia..
Qualy
Piastri p17
Lando p12.

#

Race.

Interesting race starting on mediums with lando, was running at a nice pace managing the tyres, that went out the window when a lap 17 red flag came out. Upon the restart I changed to soft tyres managing then well and then we had rain, where we took a gamble to over cut kmag on the cross over to inters and it worked perfectly. We then had to play at x2 speed to manage landos ers to stay ahead. It was intense. Then it dried up and we pit early and gained 7 seconds on Kmag and came home with points!!
P10 it is for lando
Oscar got a okay ish result in p15.

#

P10

#

WE MADE BIG MOVES

#

WE HAVE SIGNED SAINZ

#

Time for baku tomorrow. Sainz makes his debut! Let’s goooo

lament ivy
#

Baku…..

#

Sainz out in q2. Got blocked on both runs. Nightmare. Starts p14. But we should get into the top 10 hopefully.

#

Lando currently in q3

#

Lando starts p10. We only did one run as we can’t challenge the others just yet

#

Sprint time.

#

Lando p9.
Sainz p12. Stuck in alpine drs train

lament ivy
#

Crazy race.
A vsc at lap 10 meant we pitted lando as he started on softs so we put him on mediums
We then had a red flag on lap 16.
We change sainz to hards, and go to the end. We were running p6 but unfortunately Hamilton Piastri now in Ferrari and Russell over took us on fresh softs.
Lando eventually after having more fresh softs came home p10.

So baku sainz gets p9.
Lando p10. Decent day 😋

#

6th atm

#

4 points

#

I don’t get why when I go to upgrade certain parts now they go until -

#

Ahh

#

So like on chassis for example before applying anything it’s saying it’ll take away some of my low speed cornering

#

Yeah and If I take off some engine cooling etc it’ll all be fine I think. I’m focusing on aero now. Got the second best cooling

lament ivy
#

MIAMI.
Qualifying.
Had to do two runs with both drivers in q1 due to being blocked 😂.

Same in q2.
So we only had one fresh set of softs for q3. As I wanted to save a new set for the race
We finished p9 and p10. Decent starting positions.

#

Miami Race:

Started on softs with both drivers, knowing rain was coming around lap 25 or so.
We went aggressive on the pace managed to actually gain some positions with sainz and lando.

However we had to pit and maximum attack was the order of the day, it was only stroll who pit around us and was on a similar strategy.

Unfortunately a slow stop for lando meant he had traffic, so despite pitting two laps before sainz where the gap was 2 seconds it was now 5.5.

We managed to Jump stroll as the rain arrived with sainz and was running p6. However after defending for 21 laps stroll finally passed us but we held off Russell and Piastri to take p7 with sainz

Lando just didn’t have pace on inters and finished p10

#

They just didn’t get out of the way in the chicane bit and your drivers just stop accelerating 😂

#

Up to 5th in the constructors now

#

We also signed Endrico Cardile 94 rated technical chief from Ferrari

#

Alpine keep messing up strategies 😅

#

Ouch, got some nice big upgrades for 40 days coming

#

But we have only 500k

#

Never mind we have a factory fire ffs

lament ivy
#

I know but I had some things to manufacture 😂

lament ivy
#

Imola ………

#

Sainz picks up a 3 place pen in practice, even though stroll crashed into him.

#

Norris : p11
Sainz p12 but starts p15.

lament ivy
#

Sainz great drive!! Got to lap 27 on softs and then pushed hard on the hard tyres and got p9!!

Norris got taken out by De Vries after pitting! So had to make an extra stop but he still came home p12. Not bad.

lament ivy
#

………………………..

#

Monaco.
Wet quali.
Lando p14. Just struggled massively. 1.2 behind sainz in q2.

Dry q3. Sainz starts p9. Ocon starts 6th. Hopefully we beat him.

#

Lando out turn 1.

#

Shit

lament ivy
#

P7 sainzzzzz

#

Dry start wet middle dry end. Sainz with beautiful moves

#

We’ve emergency manufactured a fair few parts for Spain for new updates

lament ivy
#

P7 and p9.

#

Alpine somehow 4th and 6th.

#

Race tomorrow

#

Sainz p7 lando p9

#

But lando has grid drop from last race after taking out kmag

lament ivy
#

Standard difficulty is remaining for duration of this career!

Sainzzz p6 race. Incredible pace only .6 away from Russell!
Lando p11 nightmare race for him kept locking up

lament ivy
#

Canada.
Another nightmare quali for lando!
P18 wtf is going on!

Sainz p7 ! Good job from him once again

#

Do the race tomorrow 😅

lament ivy
#

Canada.
Sainz gets p6 mega job from him!
Lando finished p13

#

………………….

#

Austria:
Quali.
Lando p11.
Sainz p8

#

Aggressive strat on sprint starting on softs.

#

And no idea @lament ivy it’s frustrating

#

He’s got newer parts than sainz for this race as well

#

Gamble works well.

#

We just went max pace whole race and came p7 and p8. Don’t really feel like enough points are worth taking time on it.
So sainz p7 and lando p8.

Lando was faster in race but we told him not to attack as George was on his ass

lament ivy
#

Yesssss lando p5!!!!!

#

Sainz p9.
A 7 second stop for sainz just ruined his race caught all the traffic.
We pitted under a lap 13 vsc from softs and managed mediums and mediums again and used pace at crucial times. And defended from stroll thanks to saving all the battery up at crucial times! Finished on 21 percent tyres 😂

lament ivy
#

………………………..

#

Britain.

#

Sainz p13 start.
Lando p10 start. Shocking

lament ivy
#

Race;
Sainz p6!
Lando p7.

Decent enough. Lacking high speed performance

lament ivy
#

it is the best

#

We’re 7th in low speed.
11th in medium and 12th in high. Just gotta focus on balancing it all out

#

I’m gonna do awful at Belgium and monza my speed is awful @lament ivy

lament ivy
#

Yeah true hopefully a Singapore top 5

#

Yuppp

#

I could attempt a soft medium with lando

#

But I won’t 😂

#

At Hungary I’ll go for a cheeky 3 stop

#

Always sc there

#

Yeah I guess I’ll just soft hard hard

#

I’m just thinking the deg is high

#

And lando has good smoothness

#

I will do this with sainz for sure

#

Only 80

#

Meh not really. Only for maybe 3 laps a stint

#

63 I think it is. I’ve been taking off the big gains I would get from it to get better cornering lol

#

Yeah I mean he’s mega in quali

lament ivy
#

Hungary

#

Sainz p13 quali. Only 30 ers left. Gonna buy one now as he’s starting low

#

Lando in q3 atm

#

Lando p7. Just 0.2 off 3rd.

lament ivy
#

Norris p6

#

Sainz p13. 4 lockups niceee 😅

lament ivy
#

Belgium.
Sprint quali.
P11 sainz.
P13 lando
We will make positions up I’m sure in the sprint

#

P9 for sainz. Had rain half way through was in 6th but when we pit they let a lot of cars go passed before releasing annoyingly. And as a result this then compromised lando more so he came home p13

lament ivy
#

Race:
Lando p6. We did an aggressive soft to hard strategy, under cutting Hamilton and leclerc and despite them having mediums we managed to even pull away. We almost caught Piastri in the end.
Sainz p8! Should be minimum p4/5 but he had a huge lockout, we were catching the top guys rapidly but he just lost control

lament ivy
#

Ferrari

#

@lament ivy

#

After I got sainz I guess they went random lol

#

Last upgrade package at zandvoort I think and then everything on research

#

I ain’t gonna catch merc and alpine ain’t gonna catch me so may as well. I’ve done 5 projects for research so far

#

Crazyyy

lament ivy
#

Zandvoort….

#

In practice we’re p5/6 in fp3 so encouraging usually we’re 15/16

#

Lando p12.
Goes half a second slower in q2 after being 3rd in q1.
Sainz into q3 having used an old set of softs

#

P5 sainz !

lament ivy
#

Sainz with a p4!

#

Lando p8!

#

Only 63 points behind Mercedes. Do we try to close the gap or do we continue to focus on next year

#

All in or do one or two more designs ?

#

Think my last upgrade package was like silverstone been researching since just after that

lament ivy
#

Monzaaa

#

P6 for sainz. P10 for lando but will be p18 after taking new ers I’m gonna give him a new engine as well

lament ivy
#

Scrap that theory. I’ll not have enough money for it. And we’re in the middle of some big research atm so I want to keep putting resources in that.
Will do race later

lament ivy
#

Sainz finished p6. Just couldn’t beat the Aston’s. We tried on soft to hard and it nearly worked but ran out of tyres near the end. But finished 13 seconds ahead of Piastri.
We did a 2 stop for lando as he was in a massive drs train and on same tyre life wasn’t making an impact we were stuck in p13. But ended up p9! Not bad considering he started 18th. Just a second behind ocon.

lament ivy
#

…………………..

#

Singapore

#

Lando qualifies p3!!
Sainz p12🤦🏻‍♂️

lament ivy
#

Awful Race

#

Lando p8

#

Sainz p10.

#

Shocking pace in the rain went from p2 all the way down to p8 after being 2nd in the dry conditions. And making all the right calls on tyres just fell backwards despite car being in good shape with everything no issues with tyres

#

Also. Shocking pit crew

#

8.9 second stop for sainz and a 7.
5 second for lando and a 4.4

lament ivy
#

Japannn

#

Lando p12 quali. Don’t know why he didn’t improve in q2.
Sainz p6, in mixed conditions. Hopefully can stay there, other teams catching up quickly on performance now, we’re only 8th best in the low speed compared to 5th earlier in the year

lament ivy
#

Sainz p5 in the race.
Lando p8.

lament ivy
#

Qatar:
P8 quali lando.
Sainz p13.
Race lando finishes p8
Sainz p6

#

Cota.
Lando qualifies p4.
Sainz p13

#

Lando dnf in sprint

lament ivy
#

What a drive lando.

#

P5. From p20!

#

Just 0.2 away from leclerc

#

Sainz p7. Lacked pace

lament ivy
#

We finished the season p5 in constructors on 210 points. Just 40 behind Mercedes. I didn’t have much time to right up the last few races and they were fairly meaningless and disappointing anyway😂.
Onto Season 2 later.

#

………………………………………………..

#

New season.
Will fill in all the necessary details what’s changed, what the objective now is etc. when I’m on the game later!

lament ivy
#

Driver changes.

Danny ric is in Alfa.
Zhou in Williams.
Mick Schumacher is in alpha tauri.
Ferrari keep Piastri.

#

Background : despite researching early on last year on some stats were only 12th fastest. I managed to make a couple designs for Bahrain, which lando has everything. Sainz just the front and rear wing. Gains look substantial time will tell in quali.

#

Quali.
Sainz p13.
Lando p10.
However the field is ridiculously close apart from verstappen.
Just 0.4 from p3. So we can catch this pack by Barcelona

#

Also stayed with Mercedes Engine for this year. Until allocation changes we won’t change

lament ivy
#

Bahrain race:

Started on softs with lando.
Mediums with sainz

We had a red flag lap 14.
We put lando On fresh softs as well as sainz.
Then on lap 39 we pit for fresh mediums with lando. Perez stayed out on his mediums and so we breezed past him! Leclerc had a few spins so he came only p4.
Sainz just couldn’t pass Hamilton. Despite putting on two sets of fresh softs

Lando P2! Sainz p11
