Well, that was a pleasant surprise. Thought I was going to be about 1,5-2 secs off the pace. Instead I could be competitive in the beginning, with fresh tyres. Not so much with worn tires though
A few laps into the race I was in 2nd in the middle of a sandwich. I hate being in the middle
Still, it's pretty intense having to watch out both ways
Okay okay, I'll shut up now.
Quite big differences in different sections. I was totally lost the last three or four turns, braked perhaps too early into T1, and somehow was slow in T2. Exit to the back straight I had a clear advantage in the beginning at least, and you guys braked way early at the end of the back straight. My first couple passes there weren't even planned. Of course, there wasn't going to be any more after that
I say you braked early, even though I ran off there, but that had other causes. Both irl and in simracing I loose focus after a bit, notice it when I find myself contemplating how I'm going to explain away this awful mess I'm making of my driving/riding afterwards. I was
just thinking I would say you braked early for this corner, when I foolishly ran it wide
Wasn't even that hot going in. Sort of a mental target fixation.
For the first time ever, I've passed someone in the pits, yehaaa. What happened TT? Oh, and thanks for turning me in the right direction after my spin
, sorry about that.
Came out just behind Gazza, and then I ran it wide at that corner I mentioned. Tried catching up after that, but no go. Reign Man and someone else must have had a come together or something, because I didn't pass anyone yet ended up cruising to the finish in 3rd anyway.
Grats to FreQ and Gazza, and thanks to everyone for a good race again. Many GT2s/lappers left huge amounts of room, very kind of you.
Sorry for hitting you MJ, I was going to try the inside, but midexit you were so far in I thought you were letting me by on the outside, but I thought wrong.
