Car breakdowns

I've had 10 car breakdowns in two days, I don't really understand since I haven't had much since I bought GP2. Did anyone experience such an outburst of car breakdowns in his GP2 racing career? A. Renault

>I've had 10 car breakdowns in two days, I don't really understand >since I haven't had much since I bought GP2. Did anyone experience >such an outburst of car breakdowns in his GP2 racing career? I'm nearing the end of a rookie championship season (2 races left, 2 points behind Shu) and have broken down about 5 or 6 times. A tad annoying when your 40 laps into a race and your engine lets go. I left it failures on since it's more realistic though. There's a great GP2 utility at [link lost in import] change the breakdown percentage of your car, amongst other things like ***pit color etc. As an example of the percentage, Hills Williams percentage is at 2048, my car was at over 8000!. No wonder it breaks down so often. I've since changed it to 2048. The championship should now be mine :) Tony

Yeah I had started a Championship season and my car broke down for the first 5 races in a row in the opening laps. It broke 9 times through out the whole season. WEIRD huh?

Not that much, but I've had one evening with about 4 blown engines in just 3 hours.... Strange thing is that I also have weeks without any breakdown. Arnold

So I'm not alone ;-) What breakdowns did you have ? I'm driving the TWR Arrows of Rosset and have had 4 transmission breakdowns (got to the pit once and could continue) and 1 engine problem. Next race Spa-Francorchamps, I wonder what will be next ! Still in the lead though ;-)) Greetz, Red 5
