Then a someone come steaming up the inside of me into T1 and I thought "what the hell are you doing?", when he slowed it nicely and slipped pass cleanly. Great pass Bill
(note to self-you can brake much later into T1).
Thanks Ian, it only works on turn I. When you're use to starting from the back/near the back of the grid, you see it all unfolding in front of you. When you make a good get away all the faster drivers are looking ahead and often you see the gap and go for it. Some times you're lucky other times you get collected like picnic (see above). Race 2 was very enjoyable but I guess spoilling Tudor's finishing position. I got ahead of him somewhere, then Tinman (I think) had an off and I passed him. He caught up, passed and ran wide again allowing me through. Tudor then caught up and had a battle with him, then he got by me and went off into the distance. By driving carefully on the racing line I managed to keep ahead of Tudor, and by taking the middle of the track at the end of the main straight was able to slow sufficiently to get out onto the start/finish straight with sufficient space to stay ahead up to the start of the main straight. After a while he worked out that that was the place to have a run at me by dropping back up the hill from the old hairpin then going faster than me on the approach of that last corner before the straight and accelerating past me on the straight. It was good fun and thanks Tudor for the clean drive and pass. Best fun I've had for a while.
