Thanks DC, appreciate that
Was a shame I ran out of petrol, I was rather enjoying the race as far as it went
Qualled better than I expected with the cumbersome BRM, then made a half decent start
other people seemed to bog down, or were probably just being careful
I lifted slightly into Artunes Guiman for a recovering Walter, who had some contact and was lucky not
to bend anything
then was tapped by someone coming from a long way back, same thing happened
at Blandford, I've looked at replays, and I can't see anything I did particularly wrong in both cases, so got going again
and had a few laps of trying to stay in front of Dave Rainier and Petra (I think) I had been passed up
the inside into the final turn by a Ferri and I gave loadsa room, and went super wide into T1 to get a good run up
Boavista, and managed to outdrag the Ferri and regain the place. He tried the same pass a lap later with someone
but there wasn't as much room, and it didn't go so well. I was pulling out a gap to the chasing pair
who were probably slowing each other, when Dave Ranier got some free air, he was closing the gap
and might have caught if I had done the rest of the race..... My best in the Brum Brum was a 2:19 so maybe
I would have been able to hold him off, maybe not.
Off to Argentina next, to another track I have never seen before
But I have riches beyond the dreams of Avarice
and will start with 40 credits ( I think) so can take anything. I usually favour the Eagle, I never drove the Lotus
in a previous life, and found the Brab to be too awkward, I used to like the Ferrari, so that may be an option
