Thrustmaster have said my replacement pedals will be a week from today. I'm hoping it'll be less. So it's unlikely I'll have them in time for this race.

I hope I do. Spa is made for these cars.

Sadly i am confirmed no show on this race.

I moved house today and they could not install the internet today...Mobile tethering is not an option at this point as it appears to not be fast here!

Have fun and GL guys!

No sign of the pedals arriving today, so sadly I'm a confirmed no show. @King-Kodiak @The Wayfaerer are you both around for commentary? If not I'd give a go at standing in for one of you as a second commentator since I can't race.

Who is commentating T2? Between us, with @Stokemon , I am sure we could get 2 commentators for both tiers for Spa

I would have loved to help out with commentary but I've got my eight month old nephew sleeping in the next room and don't want to be to one responsible for waking him up at 4:30am :p

Looking forward for this evening. Have so far only had 10minutes of practice though, using my catalunya setup with a little reduced DF. I've noticed in those ten minutes that the car is quite stable (16/18DF compared to 20/20 on cata). However it is unstable entering/going through Les Combes.
Going up on Eau Rouge I can leave my DRS open, up till the point you have to steer left for Raidillon then I have to close it.

So quite stable, except throughout Les Combes. Any setup tips that I should look at this evening?

I have exactly the same issue, and nothing fixed it for me. I'll be driving around at the back tonight. o_O

What a disaster. I had everything to gain here. Despite being taken off track on T1 via coming together with @Elodyr I manage to avoid damage, but was last so did an early pit. Then I clipped a bollard, just touched it, but 12% damage to front win lost 20kph and started giving me more engine damage than I was expecting.I got nervous I would not last to the end so I went in to repair then engine + aero for 1min of repairs. Looking at the final result I was only 1m40 of the leader, with 1m40 of a silly repair I could probably had avoided. :( A wasted opportunity.

EDIT: I misread because I was a further lap down. I wasn't so close after all. Somewhere in the top 8 maybe if I had not looked the wrong way at that bollard. Bollards!!! ;)

And here I wanted to thank whoever removed the bollards... Unlucky man.
