The Italian GP. One of the most iconic events on the f1 calender and race 5 for the DRL calender. With 4 drivers going all out for the title; OMG its Jo, Langman, GaucheCrab123 and rampage everything was up for grabs at the top of the standings, and with a win last time out NiNjAzZ was also feeling confident and hoping he could get near the top 4 and battle it out for another win. Quali was very competitive but Langman17 took pole by 3 tenths of a second on SS tyres with a lap time of 1.21.379. Also on the front row was NiNjAzZ setting a 1.21.611 on the SS after his win in Baku. On the 2nd row was scotsman Stracho on the SS and Gauchecrab behind, but on the Soft tyres with a 1.22.282. On the 3rd row was the welshman Morgz on the SS and OMG its Jo; suprisingly low down, also on the SS but had crashed earlier in the session costing him a chance of a front row start. On the 4th row there SRL monsta on soft tyres and SRL Rampage, who was also suprisingly low down on the SS tyres. Rounding out the top 10 was Factuallmpala, after a good quali, and VJ1429 behind; both on SS.
Aa the race got underway Langman made an excellent start from the front of the grid and covered off the threat from NiNjAzZ very well and helped his teammate stracho go around the outside and get into P2. After this Morgz who was battling with GaucheCrab for P4 managed to sneak on the iniside of NiNjAzZ into T4 and put himself into P3 with Gauchecrab being left in P5. An early retirement from VJ1429 ended what was a very dissapointing day for him, only qualifing P10 and retiring before the end of sector 1. SRL monsta had a dissapointing start to the race too getting spun around at the first chicane and ruined what was frankly a good position which was P7 on the soft tyres. The other scotsman of piouscrab also had a bad start lagging out after being left in last place after T1 despite qualifing 11th. Fortunatly he rejoined at the end of lap 1. At the end of lap 1 however a safety car was deployed which really spiced things up. Quite a few of the front runners at the time had just missed the pit lane whilst some of the drivers further back had the opportunity to pit and have no delta. This completally mixed up the order and at the end of the safety car the leader was Arty B Cool on the medium tyres who qualified only 14th and the D3LTA44 in P2 also on the mediums with SRL monsta on the softs he qualified on in P3. In 4th was the red bull of Langman on a fresh set of medium tyres. Followed by langman was A360 velocity who was also a backmarker who benifited massivly from the safety car. Followed by him was XplodinEmerald who had unfortunatly disconnected at this time in 6th and OMG its Jo in 7th, who jumped both stracho and morgz in the pits. As the race got back underway D3LTA44 did a half spin into the last corner before the restart which gained Arty B Cool a huge lead as the race got underway. SRL Monsta immediatly got into P2 whilst D3LTA44 dropped to P3 but as the cars went down the straight Langman17 got closer and closer before monsta lost speed and lost 3 positions to D3LTA, Langman and A360 into turn 1. Behind Monsta was OMG its Jo, Stracho, Gauche and Morgz. Then at turn 3 Jo made a move for P5 going around the outside of monsta and then down the inside into turn 4! It was a very well crafted move to get into P5 and split the 2 renaults. Further back in the field morgz hit the rear of Gauchecrab and loses a bit of his front wing and drops to P11. At the end of lap 5 stracho14 makes a move down the straight and into turn one on SRL monsta who seemed to be running less downforce and stracho got up into P6. Langman then made a contriversal move for P2 but managed to hold it together keep P2. Langman immediatly turned his attention to the leader Arty B Cool however who had pulled a huge gap over Langman because Langman was battling D3LTA. SRL Monsta's day was slowly gettimg worse as not long after this he lost another position to championship hopeful SRL Rampage and now he had SRL NiNjAzZ very close behind in P10 with morgz not too far behind in P11. However on lap 7 Langman took the lead away from Arty B Cool with D3LTA right behind waiting to pounce but he pitted at the end of lap 7 ending that little battle. However at this time there was also a 3 way battle for P4 between Stracho, Jo and A360. Jo attempted to make a move stick around the outside on A360 for P3 into turn one but unfortuanatly for him he couldnt do it. However with slipstream and a bad run from A360 Jo managed to look on the inside on T3 on A360. This also allowed stracho to follow Jo's line but he unfortunatly he missed the corner but he managed to hold his line and get into P4. As this was going on GaucheCrab caught onto the back of this pairing. As the group of 3 went down to ascari they went 3 wide but unfortunatly stracho span on the grass into gauche losing them both heaps of time whilst A360 escaped virtually unharmed. After this mini adventure Stracho dropped to P9 and Gauche to P10. Then Gauche went 3 wide on the next straight and he had another accident involving what looked to be the other williams of XplodinEmerald and Gauche dropped to P13. Obviously by now he had lost his front wing so gauche pitted and was wag down the field now with a lot of work to do. At the end of lap 9 A360 unfortunatly crashed out the race after being a strong P4 and having a great race for the bannana team. Then on Lap 10 Jo and Arty B Cool were scrapping it out for P2 and P3. Jo went on the inside of ascari, very risky. Fortunatly no accident happened and Arty kept the position. Then on the straight Jo had the better speed and went down the inside, locking up. They made contact in turn 1 and turn 2. They went side by side into turn 3 and Jo made the move around the outside onto turn 4. Whilst all this was happening about 1.5 seconds back NiNjAzZ had made a overtake on SRL Rampage which was not caught by our streamers until after the battle happened but this promoted NiNjAzZ into P4. As this battle was happening they caught Arty B Cool and NiNjAzZ got a much better run from ascari on Arty B Cool but then Arty B Cool had an amazing run on Jo. Arty tried to move to the inside but he hit the grass and went straight on promoting NiNjAzZ into P3. After a quiet few laps NiNjAzZ and Rampage who were both running close to Jo in P2 came into the pits to fit a set of Mediums which they were hoping they could carry through to the end. Both drivers came out without losing positions in P3 and P4 just ahead of Unzie who had seemed to have a quiet race so far. After a lap or 2 there was a battle for P7 which was between Morgz6908 and Arty B Cool. The ferrari attempts to get down the inside on turn 1 but he cant get past but then he gets a much better run and he goes around the outside into T3 and up the inside into T4 but unfortunatly he couldnt get through. After half a lap Arty B Cool gets an amazing run into T1 and goes past before the corner but morgz who was later on the brakes goes for a gap that was non existant, he hits Arty, he slides a bit but Arty keeps the position. As this was going off NiNjAzZ who was in a nice P3 went into the gravel and lost 2 positions. Unfortunatly I dont know how this happened as it wasn't caught on stream. A lap later Morgz got back past Arty B Cool which was now a battle for 6th due to Factuallmpala who was doing a long stratagy had just pitted from P2. However then Jo who was P2 on track and had just made what he hoped to be his final stop pitted again but not for a pitstop.... for a drive through. As he came in for his drive through there was another safety car. As the safety car came in Langman was P1, Rampage was P2, Arty was P3, Jo was P4, NiNjAzZ was P5, Morgz was P6, Gauche was P7, Monsta was P8, PiousCrab was P9, Unzie was P10, D3LTA was P11, XplodinEmerald was P12 and Stracho was P13 and lapped. As we got underway Rampage immediatly pits from P2. So Arty was now P2 and Jo was in P3 with much more speed as they head down the main straight. Jo goes down the inside into T1 and get P2 whilst Morgz has a look down the inside of NiNjAzZ for P4 but it doesnt work out for him. Gauche gets a better run on Morgz but cant get alongside to get the position. Later on the lap NiNjAzZ goes around the outside of the last corner on Arty B Cool for P3 in an amazing overtake. One of the best I have ever seen on this track. Then Gauche gets a run on Morgz after the 1st chicane for P5. He goes around the outside in turn 3 and then up the inside into T4 but he locks up. He hit the ferrari of Arty B Cool and spins himself out. Gauche dropped to P8. As the train for P3 continues and Jo is catching Langman for P1 Morgz makes a mistake and joins the group for what was now P5 with Monsta, Unzie and Gauche. Then Morgz looks to the inside and hits the kerb does a half spin and an unfortunate Unzie spins off and drops to P8. Gauche then get up into P5 ahead of Monsta in P6 as Monsta just lets Gauche go to avoid any battling because Gauche is a much faster driver and is gunning for a championship win! At the end of lap 25 NiNjAzZ has caught Jo for P2 and he replicates the move he did on Arty in the last corner to Jo. He went straight round the outside! As the leaders come onto the last lap NiNjAzZ is holding Jo off for 2nd place. Jo then locks up into T4 and slides across, gaining a heap of time but risking a penalty. Jo has the superior speed however and lunges down the inside on T6. He makes it stick. As they went down to Ascari however NiNjAzZ has a better run. He brakes earlier as there is no room so he has a much better line through ascari. NiNjAzZ has the better speed down to the last bend. He goes for the outside but Jo runs out wide so NiNjAzZ cuts back down the inside and as they cross the line side by side Jo just pips him.
