Tonight, the second race for the ZAC2 competition will be raced. The first race showed us that we can manage to race with the best (and even beat champions), so what will tonight bring!
This evening we will race on the well known circuit of Monza. A very fast track, with fast left hand corners, and slow chicanes. The Fast corners will demand alot from the left tires, and the slow chicanes are hard to brake for, due to the bumpiness of the track. Causing alot of locked up wheels, and loads of tire wear. Overtaking possibilitys plenty, but very hard, due to the slippery condition of the track, once you are off the racing line.
The Track
Race Time: 75 minutes
Track Conditions: tarmac 30 degrees celcius, dry
Team ucp Driver comments before the race:
Jeroen Ursem
A lot of practise, and alot of help with my racing line from Roy, will help me race alot more consistend then race 1. My hopes are up for a top 3 qualify (with a personal best of a 1.50.500), since other players struggle to get in the 1.50 laptimes aswell. For the race, im gonna have to go with constant 1.53's and hopefully a place within the top 5!
Goals:
race pace: 1:53's
qualifing position: Top 3
End position: Top 5
Strategy:
Soft Front tires
Med Rear tires
90 Liters of fuel
Pit in lap 18

Even more practise then jeroen, should give me a very good chance of pole position (personal best 1.49.600). Others struggle to get in the 1.50's So i hope i can demolish them, and even scare them with a nice qualify time in the 49's. Hopefully i can get in a good fast lap, without struggling to let GT cars overtaking me. For the Race, in tests it has shown that my racepace should be around 1.52's with a pb of 1.51.500. Hopefully it will be enough. Im going to try and test out if i can manage to finish the race without pitting in. Although if i have about 45seconds lead to the car following me, i will go for it, and try for the fastest racelap. My hopes are up for another podium!
Goals:
race pace: 1:52.000

SPECIAL GUEST RACER WOUTER MELISSEN
yes people, no other then ucp's godfather, Wouter Melissen, will join us in the race. He will be driving the guest GT class car, the Corvette C5r. Not his favorite, but with laptimes in the 1.45 second race, he should be able to qualify within the top 10!
wish him the best of luck
