Well, that was certainly interesting!
Was unusually confident before the race, really up for it and thought I'd be on for a top 3 at least - how wrong was I!
Messed up in qualy where for the first run I made some mistakes, then on my last run, was up nearly 4 tenths, and.....started to run out of fuel!
Somehow managed to improve my time ever soo slightly despite the engine cutting on and off for the last two corners, much to the annoyance of Mark
Start was OK as for once, I was in a faster car than the one behind me - but straight away I was having trouble getting the front in. The Maserati's looked epic on turn in today, and Mark took great advantage, going round the outside of me
Good move
A Ferrari then got past me (I've forgotton who - sorry
), then he went off, I closed back on Mark and he slid off at the same corner, suddenly P4 and pushing and then I make a mistake at T1 and back to p5 arghhh
Then - for anyone who fancies some comedy, replay 1200 onwards to see my race fall apart in 2 laps
Span myself, ran into a spun James, narrowly miss James after another spin, run into Kerr when I caught him slowing down for James's spin! It was all happening
Down from P5 to P16 at one point!
I was lucky to get a couple more spots back from mistakes of others. Sorry to Adam if my sudden cut across in T1 seemed evil, I saw you brake soo late in my rear view I thought you were going to run into me! So jumped to the apex to avoid you! lol
Good fair driving from Kerr too, think we both had a duff race buddy
Shame to wave goodbye to my skin and privateer status on a low note, but ah well. Exciting times ahead
Congrats to the podium.
