Hehe Pelle, Yeah yeah, the REAL story of the danish flag's red 'n' white, is that it's the blood of our opponents on Their white flag as they surrendered
Grats to Rob on a very superior win! and of course to my teammate Pelle for making the useless Honda go that fast! and Artiglietti for making a good comeback to 3rd
Again not much practise for me, so I decided to go with the good old trusty Coop and aim for a steady race performance.. I was 0,5s off my prib in Qual, so I started 9th..
Got up to 8th when Artiglietti went off/had an incident(?) - soon after I tried to overtake Axel Cookie for 7th into T1, but sadly we touched mid-corner, I'm sorry Axel but I was trying my best to stay inside and looking on my replay I feel I gave you enough room? Don't know how you experienced that one? Sad to see that you quit the race after that
Not long after Artigletti started his comeback by overtaking me, putting me 8th again, I tried to give room as I knew/could see he was alot faster than me but he waited his due time to make the pass..
Bob W. got some trouble some laps later(?) handing me 7th, not long after I was able to pass Sam for 6th in his, quite impressively fast, BRM! - Was then able to pull away from Sam over the next many laps..
Suddenly Ronnie and Artiglietti popped up in front of me, having had some kind of trouble.. I tried to push to see if I could make an impression on Ronnie, but not only was he pulling away from me in spite of my effort, I also had a small off in T4 as a result and decided to back down and keep steady after my little scare..
To my luck Ronnie spins and hands me 5th, but I noticed in my mirrors that he was already pointing in the right direction and heading my way before I went round the next bend.. So I decided to push a bit again, and see if I could keep him behind with 10 laps to go.. Not long after I could pass Dean for 4th as his car was crawling with engine trouble.. The rest of the race was me nervously looking at the gap to Ronnie every time I crossed the line, as he kept eating his way closer and closer, especially in the final couple of laps he was going really fast and I could see him and his red monster growling at me while he was chasing me down like a shark after fresh meat in Jaws.. Luckily we ran out of laps before he caught me, but I sure could feel the "don't fuck up now"-pressure on those final laps
On a side note I think our team Team-GTLDK has been awarded too many points as Pelle and me only scored 75 not 80 in the last round (unless we have a teammate I don't know about
)
