I almost forgot about this race, real life a bit too busy! Luckily the track is very simple, but after viewing other drivers from the replay I see I was quite ragged and didn't sort good lines, Greg in particular was driving much better and only the Eagle's straight line speed kept me in the hunt. Most of the race was okay, I see we touched at the first hairpin killer, as you came back from a wide line, punting you off, sorry about that. As Greg mentioned I went off myself at the first hairpin a few laps later and took a while to get going again. Coming back on again I had Killer (Frank) a second or two back but after catching an ailing Syd in T1 I had to slow quite a bit which allowed Killer to get right on my case. A few laps later I caught Syd again in the same place and went wide on the exit spinning several times.... Grr...given the circuit is so fast, I found your limping round was a bit out of order... no fun for you either I reckon and did you really need the points?
After getting going again I was behind Killer and Lasse (and Doni I think) but then Lasse and Doni came together and I was able to close up then pass Alex and also pass Killer on the last lap. At this point I was oblivious to Axel being out front and thought I had the lead. It wasn't until after the finish line I realized I was 2nd not 1st!
On to Hockenheim, slight chance of the title but Killer is pencilled-in...let's see.
Cheers for the racing guys,
Bob.
