Press Conference - Silverstone
The drivers and teams are all set up for tonight's race at Silverstone. Expectations, pasta, and even a special lv. 3 attack on a unwelcomed track designer happened on this morning press conference. Read it all about it, below :
Driver tib :
(Tina Turner - GoldenEye of the Tiger) tib, a circuit you already know and a 55kg weight advantage, do you feel a hat-trick coming?
tib : Most definetely.. NOT. It's not a circuit i know too well, i am more used to the modern installations of Silverstone, and it's not my type of track,i usually drive faster on tight tracks, so, i just hope to be competitive.
(unknown small guy at the back of the room) If Scuderia Libra wants I can drive for them for free!
tib : You need to talk to the burning guy that only grunts, over there.. points to Akuma, he calls the shot, not me. But i think the team is pleased with my performance, so far.
(still that guy) Yeah, they surely are... anyway, you've got 11 points less than your opponent, and a complete hat-trick gives you 9 points more. Will you go for it and risk everything for that or will you settle a bit and try to decrease his lead point by point?
tib : I will try to win the race. That's the primary goal. If i can also get the pole and the best laps, better, but if not, i need to win the races, first and foremost.
(Seiya - Tomorrow News) What's the strongest point on your driving style? Weakest? And your opinion on the Mosler car?
tib : I believe my strongest point is consistency, dispite the mistakes made on the last round. I usually can drive a whole race within the same tenth of second. And the weakest is definetely tackling (more specifically exiting) high-speed corners on full throttle.
I liked the car, it's heavy and fast, but it's not my favorite of the season, which for the lack of Ferrari's, is the Lister
Storm.
Thanks for your time, tib, Godspeed you tonight!
tib : thanks, see ya all on the track.
Driver Shaka :
(Jeremy Clark - Top Gear) - Shaka, welcome to Silvertone, coming here with a large points advantage, must be good right ? What are your expectations for tonight's race ?
Shaka : I'm not sure how it's gonna be. A very fast circuit that I've never driven before, at least this layout, with a car that is not ready yet, carrying a 55kg penalty... that's a bit too much. I'm not sure I can make to the grid, so valuable points are my goal for tonight.
(Ru Mor - Racing Gossips) - How is the situation in the Lotus team ? What can you say to us, about the news of a gunshot inside the factory ?
Shaka : That's something I don't know. I heard it from a reporter a few minutes ago when I was entering this room. Last night I had medical exams and didn't go to the factory, tried to call the guys this morning and no one answered. Then this guy told me FDTV no one answers the door or phones and a few screams and gunshots were heard. As soon as this conference is over I'll go there to check what the hell is going on.
(Hermann Tilke - Himself) - Your circuits are boring, they don't have bridges, buildings, fairy wheels, and lights all over it, care for me to design one for you guys ?
Shaka : GET OFF THIS ROOM, YOU FREAKING ASSHOLE!
Hey, tib, ask your boss to gently remove this guy from here
FormulaDuude is series with circuits, not a theme park.
We don't want your kind of boring tracks here... we won't let you get anywhere near our series!
go back to your "formula one"... blergh...
m/
(Akuma - Scuderia Libra) - shoosh, messatsu, shun-gokusatsu
*aims at Tilke*
Shaka : Thanks.
(The Stig - Top Gear) - Think you can go faster than me at Copse, duude ?
Shaka : with 55kg of pasta in my belly? no way!
Thanks for your time and good luck tonight, and we will be awaiting on news of the situation at Lotus Factory!
Shaka : Thank you guys, I'm taking off... now!
