A stream of bad events led to this race will be in my memory the one to forget. Not 'cause of my lousy result, that's just a consequence of it all.
Had a stutter now and then in practice, and a freeze at the end of it. A complete picture freeze for about 6 or 7 seconds. FPS up this point were at about 60, same as usual. Had the same in quali but less. I was afraid to check 'cause of the Alt-Tab death. Don't think I was running anything in the background, as I restarted my PC prior to the race. Lost some time 'cause of it and qualified 10th, I think.
Came through pace lap havoc unscathed, though a bit confused.
Had really bad graphics in the first lap after rolling start, cars completely disappeared and appeared again. I think I hit someone, but I'm not sure, had to see the replay. If I did, I apologize, though I didn't really see anything, just felt something like a contact through the wheel.
After two laps there was no more stuttering, so I guess it might have been something on my computer.
Like H@l said, I also had many battles, this part was really enjoyable. Though I must say, I saw too many unnecessary contacts.
We touched with Evert and he let my by, he was a real gent.
My greatest mistake was I thought it was going to be a more wet race. I made some last minute
untested changes which is never a good idea. It took at least half a second per lap out of my dry laptime and more
out of my wet laptime. That was really smart (insert Truetom smilie here).
Pitted at half, took some fuel, just to be sure. Irony itself, I was left out of fuel on the last corner.
Just 1 freaking liter would be enough for 2nd place.
Again I sincerely apologize to whom I hit at the beginning of the race.
TT
