Your race was almost exactly the same as mine Birger.

Qualified 4th in the GT class, got a good start & was 2nd at T1 behind another Corvette. First few laps were quite close after which us two Corvettes started to ease away from the 3rd place RUF. The guy in front was a little bit faster than me but was less consistent & was making one or two small mistakes allowing me to keep up with him & eventually get ahead. He retook the lead a few laps later before making an early pitstop.

Made my stop at half distance with the front tyres now toast & most other GT cars also stopped around the same time. I was now 3rd with the Corvette guy & a BMW around 35-40s ahead & clearly doing 2 stops. Got back into the lead when they stopped & was 15s clear of the Corvette guy who was back in 4th, things were looking promising!

However the guy in the Corvette was now flying & quickly dispensed with the RUF & BMW behind & started to close the gap. He caught me with about 8 minutes left & when a P2 car lapped us at T2 I braked a little late, ran wide & lost the lead. No way I could stay with him as my front tyres had gone & I'm not quite sure how I completed the race as the left front had no wear left for the last 2 laps  Shocked.

So like you very pleased with 2nd place & a huge 42 point increase in my rating.  Grin
