Dr Mark Jobs wrote:Earlier today, we had that enormous accident between Jason Hamilton and Marie Simon where Hamilton was blindsighted and hit the almost stationary MRT car at nearly 200mph. As a result of the collision, both drivers were taken to the medical center here at the IMS. Simon was complaining of lower back pain and will be taken to a local hospital for observation. Hamilton has suffered two severely broken legs and has been flown to the Indianapolis Methodist hospital in a serious but stable condition. While we have no definite timeframe on when or even if he'll ever drive competitively again, we expect that the minimum healing time for the injuries he sustained would be 10-12 months.

Has it ever occurred to you that I only ever post stuff while running a race when, you know, it actually happens and I've got video of it?

by **eurobrun** » 02 Mar 2012, 16:26

Is it ok if I make up some storyline about someone else being in the car at the time of the accident (for example he was replaced at really short notcie due to illness or something like that) Its just that I'm sure you would not be happy if your driver was forced to miss a whole season.

That's up to you but I'd imagine that the only F2RWRS eligible drivers that would have been available at such short notice would be either Micko Glotch or Anton Bosevic.

Actually, a Bosevic storyline would work as he was scheduled to retire from driving duties last weekend anyway and his race stats are incredibly close to Hamilton's.

If Bosevic's owner approves then that will be the official storyline.

Ah, no, hang on, don't I as the team owner get a say in this? And there is no way I would ever have hired Bosevic!

I just remembered the Kremnicky/Seron accident that occurred at the season opener under very similar circumstances and I didn't get any complaints from Mr De Bock or The Lukas. I get the feeling that I'm applying double standards now as a result.

They didn't raise any objection iirc

Autosport wrote:Young Lions to rest Hamilton in 2015
After being injured in a huge accident at the F2RWRS FedEx Indy 100, it was announced that Hamilton had severely injured both of his legs. While reports currently suggest that he'll be out at least until next year's Monaco race, the Young Lions have announced that he won't race until he can prove his fitness. New team princiapl for next year Garry Rogers said "We don't know precisely how serious Jason's injuries are, but he won't be driving the car as soon as he's recovered. He'll need to prove he's fit to race again, and until then he won't be in the car." When asked about who would be likely to replace Hamilton, Rogers said "We have until the first race next year to make that decision. It's soon after the incident, although we do have few drivers in mind."

2014 F2RWRS Federal Express Indianapolis 100 - Race

POSITIVES

Jones Italia - As massive attrition struck the field in one of the coldest races in Indianapolis history, the Jones Italia team were the only team to get both cars to the finish in one piece and were duly rewarded with a 1-2 as a result. Terry Hawkin was simply superlative all weekend and out of the classified finishers (all six of them), he was the one who relied on luck the least as once Hansuke Shioya's engine blew up and Mitchell Macklin and Jason Hamilton finding troubles of their own. Marco Bizzarri survived the race and with help from the three-stopping Rosco Vantini finding the turn 3 wall on the final lap got second place as a result.

NEGATIVES

Everyone Else except Jason Hamilton - Since the race was quite possibly the biggest showing of ineptitude in human history, it's very hard to summaries it all. Let's start off with the polesitter Hansuke Shioya and his team. Shioya lost the start to Macklin but got back past with his superior straightline speed and proceeded to build a small gap before his BMW engine blew up spectacularly on lap 4, ending his afternoon. Bastiaan van Nieuwenhuijzen on the other hand managed to scrape through all the madness relatively unscathed until he became one of the many victims of the turn 3 wall whilst on track for a very safe handful of points. Aston Martin are next up with the two comically colliding with each other at turn 3 early on which forced Andrej Kremnicky into retirement and forced Alessandro Marchesi to the back of the field. Sheer dumb luck alone got him his eventual podium finish.

The champions are next up as Mitchell Macklin became one of 3 people in about 2 laps to end up planting it into the turn 3 wall at around the one-third distance mark whilst well in contention for the win and ended up being one of many people having to visit the stewards' room that night. Marie Simon booked a first class ticket to said room for her involvement in the Hamilton collision which could mean the end of her career at MRT at least. Tommy Nash was another one who found the turn 3 wall while the less said about the Gillet team, the better as their two inept drivers guaranteed they'd be the "fall team" for pre-qualifying next year on a day where simply keeping it on the straight and narrow was more imperative than anywhere else.

Over at Rising Ashes, it was the same story as usual with Niko Bellic being anonymous before damaging his front wing in the Hamilton/Simon accident before having his race ended a few laps later by the turn 3 magnet while Tanner Jason's season ended in a fireball when his BMW powerplant also gave way. Beirao Portugal had a similar story with Alberto Cara making his way into a solid points position from his utter crap starting position before he too found the wall while Catarina Lopes spent all weekend basically confirming that she'd be the only driver who started every race to not score a point. Hydook also had a similar story of woe with Johannes Rueckert being strangely off-colour and mired in the midfield before his accident while rookie Enrico Molinaro was well on track to a solid result before his engine also gave way.

This now leaves us with two teams. Falik Arrows and Simpson Motorsport. By all rights, Rosco Vantini could have, should have and would have finished 2nd despite making one more stop than everyone else except he threw it into the wall with less than a mile to go which not only cost him second to Bizzarri but removed himself from the podium completely. Yuka Katayama lost over half a lap early on with a spin after a collision with Van Nieuwenhiujzen and failed to register a blip on the radar for the rest of the race as she sneaked into 5th place. Over at Simpson Motorsport and Dave Anderson was creating his own luck for once. None of it was good as he became one of the many turn 3 victims before half-distance after losing a lap trying to negotiate his way around the crawling cars of Rueckert and Macklin. Michael Robertson was 2 laps down in 6th place but he also scored fastest lap of the race in the process but not before attempting to take the record for most times on two wheels in one race.

Simpson Motorsports rebranded as Gulf M/Power Racing for 2015
At a press conference before the Indianapolis round of the F2RWRS, the Simpson Motorsports team has unveiled their 2015 F2RWRS challenger. Not only was their new livery unveiled, a new team name was unveiled. The team will be now officially be known as Gulf M/Power Racing, hinting at increased involvement in the team from sponsor Gulf and also from BMW. They are one of the few teams sticking with BMW now that Lancia, Holden and Audi also have been approved to supply engines.

Here's the livery, hopefully this works - if it does, could you please take a few screenshots?

Geez Eurobrun relax man, Rhys runs Young Lions, ultimately he has jurisdiction to do whatever he wants with his drivers. It's what potentially happens when you put your driver at another team, it's part of the risk you take. If you're that desperate to ensure your driver doesn't fall foul of injuries, benchings, whatever, then run your own team or don't take part at all. Both Kremnicky and Seron missed loads of races earlier this season, and neither of the members controlling them complained. You have to take the rough with the smooth, just as in real life. Wizzie doesn't have an agenda against anyone, he's running this series for the benefit of us all. Hamilton got in a crash, broke both his legs, and whilst he'll miss races next season, he now has the opportunity to make a great comeback in the latter half of 2015.

And now...

Terry Hawkin wrote:What an amazing result this has been! To come off the back of winning the Surfers SuperPrix in the F3RWRS, winning the FedEx 100 has to be the highlight of my career so far. The Jones Italia team has been difficult to work with, and there's no doubt I'm looking forward to driving for a team next year without the tension and divisive nature I've experienced this season. I'm looking forward to helping Sammy establish his team in the F2RWRS, and hopefully we can repeat some of the performances we've enjoyed this year. Now it's time to celebrate what's been an amazing year for me though!

Sammy Jones wrote:I'm absolutely delighted for Terry to have clinched the win today, it was a mad race out there, and he kept his head and pulled through with a brilliant victory, his first in the F2RWRS. I'm so happy we have him on board for next year as part of the Jones Racing organisation. Announcements on our new team will follow in due course, including an announcement on our second driver. We're pleased with the performances Connor showed in his two races for the team, but further details need to be finalised before any agreements are reached. We have a number of other drivers in our sights as far as the drive is concerned, so it's by no means a formality just yet.

Enrico Molinaro to race for Hydook in 2015
Italian driver Enrico Molinaro has signed full season contract to fill the seat in Hydook Racing Team for the 2015 season of Formula 2 Rejects World Race Series.
Anton Bosevic, team principal: "I am very happy with our line-up. We have two talented drivers. Johannes has already proved himself to be a solid driver and Enrico has some great potential waiting to be unleashed".

Okay, I must get my cars' numbers right. Wizzie, can you tell me how are these sorted out?
a) according to driver standings (#9 for Rueckert and #19 for Molinaro who fills in for Bosevic)
b) according to team standings (#15 and #16)
c) the other way I can't think of and I'd like to know to finally finish my livery

Theo Rulboke, Chief Steward wrote:After our very long and exhaustive investigation into many drivers after yesterday's race, we have deemed all 7 drivers under investigation guilty of unsafe driving. It was categorically stated at the drivers' meeting yesterday morning that crawling along the track after an accident is simply not acceptable on the back of last year's race and that the stewards would take a dim view on it. As a result, we've applied the following penalties to the following drivers:

Car 0 - Tommy Nash: 1 race ban which is suspended until the end of 2015
Car 5 - Alberto Cara: 1 race ban which is suspended until the end of 2015
Car 7 - Mitchell Macklin: 1 race ban effective for next year's F1RWRS season opener as it's his second offence of the year
Car 8 - Marie Simon: 1 race ban effective immediately as it led to an accident with Car 2 (Jason Hamilton)
Car 11 - Rosco Vantini: 1 race ban which is suspended until the end of 2015
Car 14 - Johannes Rueckert: 1 race ban effective immediately as it held up Car 19 (Dave Anderson) for a lap
Car 17 - Andrej Kremnicky: 1 race ban which is suspended until the end of 2015

Furthermore, Car 8 (Marie Simon) has been found guilty of causing an avoidable accident which has led to Jason Hamilton being injured. Therefore, she has been handed a 2 race ban on top of the one race ban she has to serve.

Brett Johnson wrote:We're happy with Marchesi's performance today, given the circumstances. 3rd in the constructors' is incredible considering we were not expecting much from the chassis. Sadly Andrej will not go to F1RWRS or stay with us but we respect his decision and we wish him the best in the future. We understand that Alessandro is hoping for a drive for MRT, and until he can confirm his drive there we cannot say at this time if he will drive for us in 2015. We can say, however, that Micko Glotch will drive for us for the 2015 season, pending his approval. He impressed us while replacing Andrej during his injury and we thought he deserved a full-time drive.

Seeing how Glotch is already per-occupied with this, I doubt his position at Holden will be likely.

Tommy Nash wrote:Careless driving? Bathplug, I'm asking the team to appeal that decision. The tires were worn beyond all repair and I couldn't control the car. Michelin should be ashamed for supplying bathplugging horrible tires.

Alessandro Marchesi wrote:Didn't appreciate what Andrej did to me early in the race, but otherwise the race for me was uneventful. Thankful I got my second podium of the year today. Hopefully MRT will hire me. I'm looking for a race seat, so if they offer me a test drive I'll turn it down immediately. I'm not here to fool around and test all the time. I'm here to race.

Question: If Marchesi stays in F2RWRS, and joins F1RWRS in 2016, does he still keep his 25 credits from this year?

Website · by **Wizzie** » 03 Mar 2012, 08:46

In Nash's case, it wasn't the accident itself that was the problem, it was the fact he crawled along the wall for the next half a lap that is.

And I've decided that Marchesi will drive for MRT in the F2RWRS next year and he will keep the 25 credits as will all the other top 5 drivers who don't find an F1RWRS seat next year. However, no driver will be able to collect prize money for more than three seasons and if a driver accumulates over 300 credits over the course of their F2RWRS career, any team who signs them on will have to keep them for two years to see the full amount (i.e. they'll get 300 credits in year 1 and the remaining balance in year 2). Official announcement will follow soon.

by **Warren Hughes** » 03 Mar 2012, 08:47

I just offered Rosco Vantini an F1RWRS race drive at Prospec for 2015 - without even realising I'd get 125 credits if he signs! Bonus!

Because if I don't have him race for Holden then Hamilton's career is over

Melrose Racing Team have earlier today confirmed the worst-kept secret in the paddock that Alessandro Marchesi will drive for MRT in 2015 alongside Michael Robertson. MRT boss Daniel Melrose's decision to hire the Italian was allegedly made much easier on the back of both his current drivers Mitchell Macklin and Marie Simon receiving bans on the back of yesterday's FedEx 100. Immediately before the F1RWRS Budweiser World 800, Melrose made the announcement on the grid by saying "Marie is a very talented young woman but she's just far too inconsistent all year. The three race ban just made the decision all the easier for us and as a result we'd like to welcome Alessandro to the team and hope he and Michael can lead the team to even greater heights next year." Neither Marie Simon or Alessandro Marchesi were available for comment.
