Fantastic race, result was more than I expecte and I gotta pat my own back for my incredible performance. Got under the 1.40s which was a huge goal, battled literally every other racer and really made life difficult for them to pass but they did anyway which I'm ok with. I didn't finish last which something I didn't expect and overall a good choice to have stayed up till 4 a.m. for this and I guess I was racing with Sebastian Vettel because someone kept yelling blue flags at me but I'm fine with it. Sorry for the spam but trying to leave a positive note for myself on a pretty lackluster but fun experience.

If you felt that some people took you out (including me), that was because you were lagging pretty badly. On our screens you were sometimes swerving left and right. Just thought I'd let you know before you think we were all being assholes haha.

Yeah, you were definitely having lag problems, I took you out as I passed you on the left hander where the bridge is, we both nearly ended up in the ditch, one second, you were on the outside of the bend, the next, you were swerving across the road at me lol. Same point as iRaymen, hope you didn't think we were being assholes, if I thought it wasn't lag, I would have stopped, happened to me later in the race, having a real close battle with bahr27 and I lag hit him and he crashed, didn't touch him on my screen, but waited for him further round the lap, losing a place to elusive, in the process, but it is just something you have to do

Nah, I heard it from bahr27 in the first lap and I knew it wasn't going to end well for me if the lag was already there, the fact that I didn't get booted out was surprising though considering jstarr44 and one other guy were out midway. I just focused on keeping my eye out for anyone and just stopped on the side, the only thing I hated was the start which I can say really hurt my race. But overall it was great, I don't blame any of you guys for my outcome, I'm sorry if I screwed anyone because of the lag; complete unintentional and I enjoyed racing with all of you.

Yeah, really enjoyed it myself, think I might have caused some chaos at the start, mid-drived into a gap that closed up and crashed into the host lol!! There's not much you can do about lag, it is just part of the game, maybe hard wire your internet into your PS might help, can double your speed, but the main thing is to enjoy the race and get used to racing with all different abilities

I really enjoyed the race although I finished 11th. Well technically I DNF, which is new to me. Usually I get used to a track quite fast but that one didn't suite me at all. Also the Turismo is not made for me I guess. But overall a nice experience!

Yeah, I should know better really, there is definitely something in the brain that makes us crazy at the start.

You didn't intentionally do it but I know you saw an opportunity and went for it and I can't put any blame on you for that, what happened after you saw the opportunity is a completely different story.

Yeah, shit like that happens all the time, it's about getting your head back on it and carrying on lol, mind you, I was lapping at 1.35, when I was doing 1.34 in practice the day before, so I should keep my mouth shut really

If you really do have nothing to do, you could watch this. It's a lesson in how not to race. Especially the last 15mins. I was so much smoother in practice. To be honest I was shattered by around lap 30. I think my age is catching up with me. youtu.be/uWE_97UzxVU

Just stream directly to it Kam. Make sure you have your Playstation and Youtube accounts linked and verified and then when you want to start just press the share button on your controller and then go to broadcast gameplay and choose Youtube. Give your stream a title and off you go. Also in the broadcast settings make sure you have the 'see comments' button unticked otherwise you won't have a full screen.
