Hallo,

schade das die Rennen jetzt auch in dieser Serie länger als eine Stunde gefahren werden.
Das kann/möchte ich nicht mehr fahren.
Ja, ich kann ja nur die "kurz" Rennen fahren, aber dann macht die Gesamtauswertung auch keinen Spaß mehr und die Motivation überhaupt zu fahren geht dahin.
GT1 und Ferrari und Historisch damit weichen wir von der Standardlänge doch immer mehr ab.
Stellt sich mir die Frage, ob das im Adminkreis mal abgestimmt werden müsste!!!
Gruß
Klaus

Hallo,
was ist wenn ein Fahrer aus Level 1 ein anderes Fahrzeug auswählt?


Grüsli

Hello Guys

To Blaubär

In the Ferrari Challenge Series, races with Fuel X1 will be Approx. 80min and races with Fuel X2 Approx. 60min.

There will be normally 4 races of approx. 80min and 6 races of approx. 60 min on the 10 races of the series.

I am like you Blaubär and i enjoy more standard 1 hour race but in this series Because of the Fuel consumption that varies from one model of Ferrari to another and to force every group level to have at least 1 pitstop, some races must be with Fuel X1 and some with Fuel X2.

To Keiichi Tsuchiya,

For this race especially it can be negociated for level 1 driver to take the 360 GTC but not the 458 or 488.

Anyway for the other races, Keiichi, as you were very fast last year in the Ferrari Challenge, you will be kept in the Level 1 group.

For the new drivers on KBB, some mistakes are possible in the group level so the group could be adjusted in futur.

I don't want to exclude any drivers with these rules.

My wish is to have competitive races with happy drivers.

If other drivers want to give their opinions about the event or else, don't hesitate.

Thanks Blaubär & Keiichi for your feedbacks on this event.

Hello.

Personally, I won't participate in race formats of this kind because, in my view, it doesn't represent open and fair competition.

If a weaker driver is allowed to pilot a car that's 3-4 seconds faster, what's the point of winning a race?

From my perspective, this format makes absolutely no sense. I'd rather finish last in a race than win because I had the best car. You can't be proud of that, because you never achieved it under equal conditions.

Besides the fun, which I wholeheartedly wish for everyone, it should be about competition. This type of race format completely ruins all statistics because race results are totally distorted. Someone ends up on the winners' lists who only managed to win thanks to a favored vehicle selection, not because they earned the victory honestly.

As a driver, I could no longer be proud of a win at all, because the conditions are completely absurd.

I'm sorry, but I'm just being honest about this. Competition is distorted, results are manipulated and never truly fair because the conditions aren't equal. I've been able to win races here without having the best car, and I can be proud of those victories.

Anyone who can achieve this under different circumstances has, in my opinion, misunderstood the principle of motorsport competition...


For my part, I will certainly not participate in such a competition-distorting format.


Greetings

Annie

Hallo,

als Neuling gefällt es mir hier auf der KBB sehr gut, aber ich muss Blaubär recht geben.
Ich habe mir diese Bude ausgesucht weil hier die Events in der Regel 60 Minuten dauern, alles andere ist mir zu lang, da macht sich dann schon die Rentner-Arthrose bemerkbar.

Grüße
Raimund (Europäer)

To Annie Lunqvist

Hello

Thanks for taking time to give your opinion about this series.

The Ferrari Challenge like the Porsche Battles are leveled events.

These are "specials" competitions because of the different power of cars but also the Weight penalties.

I maintain the word "competition" because to make a good result on these races you must race at your best level whatever the group level in which you are.

Nobody is blind, the rules are clearly written, we know some drivers have best cars than others but why not to be proud of a race in which we challenged drivers of higher levels because we keep a good pace, make no mistakes, succeed in making nice clean overtakes.

There is reasons to be proud of this if you have the feeling to have race your best level.

We are a small community, we are doing races weekly since a long time for some so we already know who are the best drivers and who can beat who in an open and fair competition.

Leveled events are competitions of a different kind but it stays competition.

The interest of the leveled event is that in theory everybody can beat everybody...but whatever your group level if you don't drive your best level you won't make a good result.

The satisfaction doesn't really come from the results but the feeling of driving his best level, to have taken the good decisions at the right moments...for me this is to Compete.

I suppose Buckel & Jackpot had fun to battle against Nils for Podium and they both knew they can't stay in front of Nils without driving their best level even with a faster car.

Buckel made a podium and he can be proud and happy about that because i have no doubts he drove his best level.

I hope it was also challenging & fun for Nils to battle against drivers he is not used to defend/attack on, they have different ways of defend than their usual oppopents Fin, Nayo & Blade so Nils had to find the good choices to win.

I don't pretend to change your opinion by writting you this but to try to make you understand my point of view.

These events are about having lots battles with other drivers from our level or from higher/lower levels, to keep our best level of racing during all the race and ...to have fun.

Knowing all that, I invite you to participate to the event Monday 19/01/2026 on the A1-Ring, it could be very fun and maybe you will enjoy it...who knows

If you try it and you dislike it so after this i would accept more easily your criticizes.

Bravo Satanas !!!

Very, very good
Analysis is good !
