Had a good last quali lap (P3 didn't expect to be faster than Toni)
Race 1: Not that good of a start but maintained P3 in the first corners, until i hit the inside bolder-kerb at T3. Almost flipped the car but stayed on track (not like Geoffer a few laps later). Therefore Toni overtook me and at the exit of T4 Frex and Martin where also alongside me. I backed of and attached my car at the back of the train. Mid-race Geoffer, Frex, Martin and Toni made a mistake so i was back P3 behind Pete. Than did some amazing laps was pretty close to Pete but came indeed also under pressure from Toni.
Well done Pete and Birger, seemed like a tight battle was going on for the podium.
We where indeed close but never had an overtake opportunity (was really driving my max after 1/2 laps decided just to follow my shepherd
)
I spent the remaining laps trying to pressure Birger, but the Lada was pretty quick out of corners so I couldn't get a run on him. My only overtaking opportunity was at the hairpin, but I didn't want to risk it because I was likely just going to punt him.
Especially last lap, last hairpin was tight according to my radar. But i think you where never next to me in the braking zone towards the hairpin.
Changed the rear wing to almost flat, to benefit from the looooong straight
Race 2 was horrible, bad start followed by just avoiding frex. Me happy because i gained a lot of place's with a bad start. But a second later i found myself inside Stephen
. I knew this will not go well in T1 and indeed and some moment the collision system was again activated
and both myself and SRW where shot towards the run off of T1. STephen had more difficulties to regain on track than myself, i hooked on the train of Martin and Pete.
Again bad decision
1 lap later a blue car doomed up between Martin and Pete and Pete and myself crashed full on frex. Suspension 0% Engine 80%, thought it was over but after 1 lap i managed to adept my driving style. And nursed the car home towards P5 due to other retirements.
So race 1, wauw what a race. race 2
Congrats again to Glenn, only Imola to go
(same like F1 2020: 1 winner but still excitement in the race) (also disappointed for Stoffel for next weekend
but Russel deserved it also)
