A 'B' Final will be run for everybody else as there will be no Grand Nationals run on the night. (must be over 10 cars to be points scoring)

Am I right in thinking this is a very fast track? I got in about 100 laps last night, and hardly had to brake for any coners (though can't remember my times). Any idea what is a good lap time for this track in practise? Looking forward to getting back in to the racing after two weeks out of it.

Going by the F1's last night - yes it is a fast track!!

 

If you don't have to brake, then cars will be almost flat out into the bends and it makes contact often and hard (As was with the ones).

My concern with F2's is the cars break easier, and will there be more cars retiring than finishing!?!?!?!?! lol

 

In the ones the lap times were 13.6 best and 14.0 average, not sure how F2 will compare tbh.

 

For those that race - GOOD LUCK :thumbup:

Just been in for half an hour and managed a 14.496 - think that was without braking as well.

 

Opening laps are fine, keep within 14.5 - 14.7 but after that the car just pushes on and times go down to 14.9 - 15.1

The humps throw the car around abit and it can catch you out all too easily!!
