Preparation for 1973 season of Wookey Story

In real life 1973, the F1 reached such success that more then 24 to 30 cars were present at every race.
This let very few room for imaginary cars.

So my proposition (means all can be discussed) is :

F1CA and COEGPI will merge
a maximum of 36 cars will be allowed to start every race.
Only 5 non championship races will be raced : 2 (from real life) with historic F1 cars + all guests and 3 "new" with all guests

To reduce the imaginary cars :
Wookey & Vulkan teams will merge in a 2 to 3 cars team : 1 for me, 1 for Vincent and 1 for occasional drivers
Riccardo Priori will be team mate with Luigi Mennella at SCS a third car will be built for occasional drivers
Vaillante (if present) will appear at some races only. (the 6 races with less participants) A third Vaillante will be available for some races for occasional drivers
DSC will appear as per his own site for non championship races and British GP.
All other friends would appear at only 1 real GP + some non championship races driving the third car of any team.

Exceptions : People with modding skills sending a full working folder with their 1973 car will participate wherever they wish.

What do you think?

It is a very valid program and open to possible variations. However, I considered that the Wookey Story was born on the virtual challenge of drivers not really included in the F1 championship, this because I considered the possible winner too obvious. Unfortunately, I was wrong, but I believe if I am allowed to go back to the origins of all this long narration that Philippe left to those who have read it because the presence of imaginary pilots founds a greater number of cases on the possible victory in each race. I understand that telling about Stewart or a Fittipaldi can generate a return to the old and glorious golden moments, but if a Mennella wins this other championship, what problem would there be ? The story becomes such after the event has already happened, so even an imaginary pilot enters the story, you just need to want it.
I don't question the organizational phase, the simulator has its limits to consider. The combination of several teams into one is plausible, even in reality the clubs do it. I like to consider how this new sporting season will develop, but I think the more imaginative there will be, the greater the curiosity to read it.

Thank you so much for this feedback. It allows me to precise my project.

I agree that imaginary pilots are the salt and the butter of the story. But as I have to take into account many more real cars from 1973, I have to limit their numbers at each race.

However, I will compensate this reduction in number by a rise in level. The imaginary cars will be on par with 1973 McLarens, and the main imaginary pilots on par with 1973 Ronnie Peterson, which will give them higher chances to be fighting for victory.

The difference will be that other imaginary entries will compete only in their home, or a random race and not crowd the back of grids like in 1972.

All in all, there should be a similar amount of imagination, but (as they did in real from 1973 to 1979) the private pilots will appear and disappear from week to week, and not make the whole season. Of course, this will not apply to those mentioned above as doing the whole season, and to those who do their cars themselves.

Je ne peux qu'approuver. C'est très frustrant de voir le nombre de gens qui fréquentent ce forum sans jamais apporter autre chose que des demandes égoïstes. Et qui ne remercient même pas quand par hasard on leur répond. Heureusement, il reste quelques fidèles qui aiment à aider les autres.

Allora, ritornando all'argomento, la storia è piacevole, considerando che si fondono magistralmente eventi realmente accaduti con quelli di fantasia. Di certo lo scrittore avrà un suo copione da seguire, e quindi non può fare decidere al simulatore la sorte di un campionato ( anche se mi sarebbe piaciuto essere un "Campione del mondo " ).
Ad ogni modo apprezzo molto la disponibilità e l'apertura di Philippe, ai nostri suggerimenti, pareri o critiche finalizzate al miglioraramento della storia stessa...
Per quanto mi riguarda (SCS), mi piace l'idea di avere Riccardo Priori al mio fianco per il prossimo anno... a condizione che i suoi sponsor portino una valanga di soldi, visto che il 1972 in termini di risultati economici non è stata un'annata da incorniciare..

He'll bring Banco di Roma and Pecorino del Lazio DOP + personal sponsor from Marlboro Italia, and, on your side, Caffé Kanon will rise its aid too, following your performance in Monza. This should explain the rise in performance expected.

J'espère sincèrement que cette page sera remplie au plus vite par ceux qui croient en ce forum. L'anniversaire récent de cet important espace du web est dû à une personne qui a su reconstituer ce dont le web l'avait naïvement privé, et s'il est aujourd'hui constamment suivi par de nombreuses personnes c'est grâce à l'âme et au courage dans ce que l'on croit utile. pour la communauté.

Honnêtement, je ne possède pas le simulateur F1C mais seulement quelques MODs de voitures qui m'ont fait découvrir le monde difficile et têtu de la 3D. La présence fondamentale de Luigi, que je remercie, m'a permis de voir la voiture que vous cherchiez en course, donc à cause de ma difficulté technique je n'ai pas l'opportunité d'être plus proche de vous pour vos problèmes concernant le simulateur de jeu. Cela me dérange et j'en suis vraiment désolé, et je vous suis également reconnaissant pour l'espace rFactor, le simulateur que depuis de nombreuses années j'ai continué à soutenir et à mettre en œuvre en fonction de mes compétences. Merci

Luigi, I know your computer is out of service, and anyway, we have plenty of time, as there is still 5 races to go to finish 1972.
But I wish my Wookey PNB73 look like this, with an V8 engine and a nice airbox matching with the rest. So I put it there, for use when possible.



I'll post sponsors later, waiting an answer from Vincent (Vulkan) first.
