Notes
  1. The race was cancelled after the British Touring Car Championship had gone overtime, due to two red flag stoppages in Race 2 and Race 3. The race was postponed until the next event at the Knockhill Racing Circuit.
gollark: I'm currently working on (in creative mode) this bunker thing, which will eventually (I hope) be able to produce all its components from scratch.
gollark: There's a mod for it.
gollark: Yes you can.
gollark: Unfortunately MC also lacks blueprinting, which is one of Factorio's "killer features".
gollark: There it is.
