Assetto Corsa career mode PS4 Intermediate series 2.

For my first race in the Mercedes SLS AMG it's a four lap dash around the wonderful Imola circuit.

Despite the BMW stalling immediately in front of me on the grid I got a decent enough start and moved up into 4th place after the first few corners. It soon became obvious that the two lead Ferraris were not going to be a realistic target so the task at hand was to overhaul the other Mercedes SLS ahead of me in third.

A third place finish would be good enough to secure a bronze for the event and the first contribution to unlocking the nest tier in the intermediate series. By the end of lap three I had got myself into a great position to line up a pass on the final lap, when, surprise surprise, the third placed car pulls off into the pits, once again ruining what had been an enjoyable race and a hard earned game of catch up.

As the two leaders also bugged out into pit lane, I was handed a free win once again which was certainly not deserved and I would have been far more satisfied with the third spot on the podium which I felt I could have legitimately earned.

I really am hoping that this is a bug the developers at Kunos Simulazioni will address as soon as possible.
