Just had a look at the server replay cap.  Great job, Pete!

Thanks, Doni. I benefited from others' mistakes. With about three or four laps remaining I could see that Ziu and Axel were having a battle 1.5 miles ahead of me.  Then the numbers on Prib seemed to tell me that they had come together somehow. By the time I caught them, it looked as though Axel was waiting for Ziu to pass, so I can only imagine that Cookie was being a gent and letting Ziu re-take a place. I followed closely for a lap, deciding to hang back as I could see that they were racing hard. On the way into Blanchimont, Axel over-cooked it and fell off the track. This seemed to unsettle Ziu so I was able to pass him later whilst he was re-composing himself. All I had to do then was keep it smooth for the last two laps. It felt very good to take the chequered flag.

Earlier I had fun with Tris, narrowly avoiding his "off" on L7. On L5 or 6 (I can't remember which) he was much quicker than me up the hill into Blanchimont so I let him go. No point in holding up a quicker driver - he was going to pass me at some point anyway.

I'm not the fastest of drivers but I was rewarded in this race by playing it safe; keeping my distance and taking no risks. I'm really happy to have driven 14 pretty faultless laps without any resets. Hats off to Cookie who was still 3 seconds a lap quicker than us mere mortals. These cars are so rewarding to drive - slow and smooth seems to be the key and GENTLE on the throttle. See you all next time Smiley

Yeah, with all that tourque you can go in 4th at La Carriere and first bend at Stavelot loosing nothing. Unluckily I lost control at braking for Les Combes lap2, as I lift for braking my steer went right and flied in the wood restarting last. After a good backup, also for other misfortune, at last but one lap I found Tris stuck in the haybale at Eau Rouge and crashed to him. Luckily I could continue, but almost lost the position. As said by Doni, the rules are for all and if someone doesn't respect them affects other drivers race for nothing.
Grats Pete!

I hope all drivers in this Series follow Donni's lead, and help to get these races Moderated. Without penalties, those who break the most rules, will gain the most points.  If penalties are not applied, the competition will become skill versus skulduggery.

My idea for this fun championship was that everyone is responsible for themselves like a gentleman and reports to me if something was not right.

The result of the 69x I have corrected as far as I could.
