Non-Championship Race Report

Non-Championship Race Report (Riley MegaTechnics Test Track)

Well the race went ahead, albeit at ~17:10. The race consisted of 60 laps and was run 4 to 5 times all told. The initial race had some issues coming from the timing systems and the telemetry loggers. Fortunately after a few restarts the major issues were fixed and I can now announce the results of F1-TMs first non-championship race!

Race Results
P 1 Summit Diablo Racing (Luke Summit) Luke Dellit (5h 10m 01.684s)

P 2 Summit Diablo Racing (Luke Summit) Mark Dellit (5h 10m 02.816s) +1.132s

P 3 Armani Revolution (Jubbing) Chase Moeller (5h 11m 11.617s) +69.933s

P 4 Armani Revolution (Jubbing) Luca Corradi (5h 11m 14.377s) +72.693s

P 5 BMW Sauber (Dr. Mario Theissen) Nick Heidfeld (5h 11m 50.687s) +109.003s

P 6 BMW Sauber (Dr. Mario Theissen) Robert Kubica (5h 12m 00.265s) +118.581s

P 7 Morvannec F1 (Elof Valantor) Mylio Silvanos (5h 12m 38.140s) +156.456s

P 8 Morvannec F1 (Elof Valantor) Dante Jimenez (5h 12m 50.704s) +169.020s
P 9 Riley MegaTechnics (Sean Riley) Anthony THOMAS (GBR) (5h 26m 01.825s) +960.141s

P 10 SharkyF1 (Sharky) Mark Fleming (5h 26m 02.425s) +960.741s

P 11 SharkyF1 (Sharky) Sharky (5h 26m 17.663s) +975.979s

P 12 Dogbert Racing (David Adams) Clair Kenyon (5h 28m 43.985s) +1122.301s

P 13 Dogbert Racing (David Adams) Myles MATSON (5h 28m 51.474s) +1129.790s

P 14 Legend Racers (Chirag Vadgama) Chirag Vadgama (5h 29m 55.787s) +1194.103s

P 16 Legend Racers (Chirag Vadgama) Jamar HEMPHILL (Reliability) DNF

P 17 Riley MegaTechnics (Sean Riley) Xavier SWEET (AUS) (CRASHED!) DNF


As you can see the race still didn't run perfectly, but it went well enough to be considered a success. Here is what Elof Valantor had to say:

"Well today's non-championship race was certainly an eye-opener for us! To be honest I was expecting the team to perform better. I'm glad we finished in a point scoring position - that means we're doing something right, but we obviously haven't got things perfect yet. The next few seasons will hopefully see the team close that gap to the very best. We have a pretty good idea of where it is we are falling short so we can take a lot of good things from this result.
I must say it was a pleasure to partake in this test and race against other notable teams. Hopefully Morvannec F1 will be invited to further tests in the future!"

Season Progress (S17 R7-8)

Season 17 - Races 7 and 8 (Nurburgring - Montreal)

Another two wins for the team. Nothing new there. Now team principle Elof Valantor would like to take this opportunity to announce an important event.

Team Principle Elof Valantor
Well as some people may have heard there is to be a non-championship race this coming Wednesday, and as some of you may have heard, Morvannec F1 has the privilege of competing in this event. The event is a test of a new system the governing body wishes to implement where races can occur on test tracks. This means the race has no real meaning in terms of the official racing calender.
The race will be held at team Riley MegaTechnics official test track on Wednesday 13th February 2007, 14:15 GMT. A great honour for Sean Riley, team manager of Riley MegaTechnics. I make no secret of it that Morvannec F1 made a bid to host the race, but unfortunatly it was not to be.
However... the race will be a good chance to see how Morvannec F1 compares with some of the other notable teams of this era. Be sure to check back for an official race report on Wednesday 13th!
