I missed the Belgian Embassy too. Yesterday, right after Schumi overtook me, my power cut out, and then it came back just as Kimi made his move on Liuzzi. I actually decided to record it—which isn't like me—because I had a feeling it was going to be a hell of a race. Didn't catch much, though.

I mostly stick to the '99-'02 tracks, and the big question is always what you're driving and which assists you've got running. People talk about finding setups online that make you lightning fast, but I don't bother downloading anything—I just run whatever basic setup the game provides. My times are roughly 1:10 at Laguna Seca, 1:22 at Monaco, 1:24 at Montreal, and 1:56 at Spa on dry tracks. When I'm running the Minardi, 😬 I'm using a keyboard. I keep traction control and stability control both on high, plus clutch assistance, and I've got the gearbox set to automatic.
Not sure yet, I'll see when I check today. I actually got sucked into some pointless game earlier and everyone was way faster than me for no reason. We were running Spa without any assists and they're hitting 1:48—no clue how. I'm stuck around 2:00. And of course, I'm driving a Minardi. Haven't put much time into Challenge lately; I just can't be bothered racing against the AI.
The idea that you can't just walk onto a lawn and get high is complete nonsense. I’ve "tried" it plenty of times myself before I quit for good. Meanwhile, my buddies have been smoking every single day for about a year now—it used to be just on the weekends back in the day. And they aren't addicts? Honestly, I think weed is for losers. Real men drink.
I know Villeneuve was pulling in a massive paycheck too. I remember hearing that when he moved over to the bar, he might have actually been the second highest-paid driver or something along those lines.
