Quoting: chancho_zombiesigned and I complained to codemasters no point of asking feral about this, this happens on windows too.

Well at least we are all sorted. It won't happen again now we know you can't use the same league in both games.

Thanks Skully. I've set a nice lazy pace for everyone to beat, obviously I did not do any practice during the off-season.

There's not a lot of moonlight in the night race. I lost my lights about three quarters through, and had to turn off the HUD and cover the green LED on my shifter to be able to make out the road. I was glad when that race was over.

On the night stage I lost half my lights and got a puncture. Sure was dark. Had to reset to track on first and last stage aswell.

Greece done. Had some setup issues at first. Namely first gear was way too short and the car was also sliding a lot. Had to drive first two stages like that, then changed my setup a bit. Enjoyed like always.

SS2: Spin on the hairpin
SS3: Clean
SS4: Roll (co-driver said "Don't Cut", I still cut :( )
SS5: Clean
SS6: Clean

SS5: Overshoot the Hairpin, reverse needed
SS6: Crashed into the stoneblocks, reverse needed

Finland done. Enjoyed but the car was extremely unstable with jumps. Lots of fighting with the wheel. 2 of the shorter tracks i was flying like crazy and luckily avoided mistakes.

Summary:
SS1: Spin and small crash into the trees, i think in total 10 sec lost
SS2-SS5: Clean
SS6: Rolled after cutting too much, lost maybe 10 sec

I missed Germany. Switched from auto to flappy paddles for Finland. I feel like it's an improvement but I'm not sure that's reflected in my times. I lost the lights real early on in the night race. It has more moonlight than Greece at least, I was able to leave the HUD on. Took a penalty to change a tyre, made it to the end with no lights and a busted radiator. Fun.

I think playing manual will improve your times with a bit of practice. I never tried auto though. I imagine auto would put you in non optimal gears at times.
