Couldn't get close to my PR in quali. Had a mechanical in a fast lap, and blew up later. Also some traffic and making mistakes left me with a still decent P2 tho...
Start was good, but Iestyn's wasn't, and that compromised Hell Corner exit for me running the wide line. Axel outdragged me and made a nice pass on the outside. I played safe at the inside. Followed Axel for a few laps, no way to pass for me, until he overcorrected out of Sulman Park. Could avoid him, and set my sights on Iestyn who was 2-3s up the road. Until he spun out braking for Murray's, we ran about the same pace. Could have been a good hunt/fight.
After that made quite some mistakes, got very lucky not rolling over at the Dipper and Forrest's Elbow. To my standards I didn't drive well, I was very tired and lacked a good focus. Still late race put in a few good laps, and redeemed myself with a UKGPL Laprecord in the race. As Jethro said, it was the same time as Iestyn's Pole lap.
Sad to see so much attrition, but very happy for Bob's P2 and Dave's P3!
Thanks all for racing this Works season.
Good continueing recovery Colin!
Thanks Jethro for server duties!
