LMR Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team
We are all familiar with LMR efforts within Forza, from domination with the many series' of TORA, to the difficulty and passion of iRacing and joint ventures into Formula Forza. Now in the true spirit of racing Le Mans Rennsport has again broadened its horizons and now jumps to the legendary CodeMasters series of Formula One to do battle with the greatest drivers on the toughest tracks in the open-wheel world.
The XFOC is the european Formula One league which utilizes the Codemasters games of F1 2010, F1 2011, F1 2012 and has now moved on to F1 2013. This is their 6th season of racing and the league has seen a great progression of popularity and professionalism. There website is http://formulaoneonlinechampionship.webs.com and we encourage all you race fans and especially you Formula 1 fans to check them out.
Le Mans Rennsport has allied ourselves with the Mercedes AMG Petronas team to field both cars under LMR banners. XFOC 2012 Driver of the Year and 2012 Drivers Championship runner-up, lBlueJaBBRexl (James Bishop),left the Sauber F1 to join our squad at Mercedes and will team up with LMR co-leader and MPD founder, Midnight LMR (Chris Becker),who is currently a front-runner in the American F1 league at Mercedes AMG. This driver pairing should make for LMRs first official entry into F1 a successful one as we contiunally go out to further the name of LMR and its interests.
Preseason testing began yesterday and despite a delayed US launch date (which will stop us from fielding both cars until Round 3) lBlueJaBBRexl was in attendance to test the limits and longivity of the Mercedes W04 and after the final hour of testing the LMR Mercedes Petronas driver sat on top of the time sheets by a little over a tenth of a second. After the session ended we caught up with James and he told us, "preseason is about lap times not race pace but its always good to see race pace though because our concern is tire wear. The options, the softs and the super softs, have a big degeradation issue on our car." When asked to make predicitons on the season he said "I think we will be in the top three and we will win the constructors championship."
Strong words coming from the works driver and a mighty challenge to lay down to his XFOC new comer teammate and team in general. But a great accomplishment it would be if our inaugural entry into Formula 1 led to a team or drivers title. We believe we have the team, the car and the driver pairing to get the job done so stay tuned to our progress on the LMR - Le Mans Rennsport and the Midnight Le Man Series Facebook pages, here in the LMR forum page and on the XFOC website http://formulaoneonlinechampionship.webs.com and we invite you to stop by and drop us some comments, advise, encouragement or questions regarding the series, the team or anything racing in general.

Re: LMR Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team
I am looking into the xbox recorder since FF is pushing for me to get it also, if I can do this then I will def do some recording. I do know that once the USF1 League makes their jump onto the new game (F1 2013) then they will continue recording and posting footage as they have started doing here recently. But I will keep you guys posted
Re: LMR Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team
