CRASHES:
Last night I was racing at Brazil and had a spectacular crash. It was
at the corner after the first chicane,I plowed into my team mate as he
was turning and it split his car in two just behind the***pit. The
two halves of his car ended up a good distance from each other. Anyone
else seen this happen?

COMPUTER CAR PITS:
In F1GP 1 you needed to run a 75% race before the computer cars would
make pit stops. In GP2 you only need to run a 50% race. In a 50% race the
computer cars will either make 1 stop or no stops.

The best crash I've had so far didn't even involve me! I had started
at the back at Monza (couldn't be bothered qualifying) and Eric
Bernard lost it on the Curva Grande on the first lap. I could see him
go straight through the gravel trap, losing his front wing & three
wheels when he hit the wall. He then rebounded onto the track where he
was collected by Christian Fittipaldi. Poor old Eric lost his final
wheel in that collision & ended up spinning along the track on his
belly almost all the way to the Curva della Roggia!!

Had a good one at Jerez the other night - I mis-judged a passing manoeurve
on the back straight, and clipped the wheels of the car I was passing. I
launched into the air (you could see the plank on the underside of the car
on the external views), and came down nose first at about 150mph. The car
broke into 2 pieces, and I ended up on the grass with just the front half of
the car, no wheels, no wings.

Wow.
