Average qually sesh left me a bit further down the field than I wanted (and behind Pops - oh the inhumanity of it all) - but I was pretty confident I could run well in the race.
After the inevitable smoke, screech, and smash at T1 I made it through unscathed, and set about making progress. I managed to get alongside TT into the hairpin, and thankfully TT didn't put up too much of a fight, and then I had to catch Shark and Pops who were hard at it
There was a bit of a train going on for a good couple of laps, until Shark got a good run out of Le Mans, and made the pass into the loooooooooong final bend ... leaving me and Pops to duke it out and let Shark get some breathing space
.
I got by Pops in a similar manner to Shark, getting a run down the Ullman Straight, and getting the inside line was enough. Pops wasn't for leaving me to dissapear though - really had to keep the hammer down.
After Shark span he got by Pops and I again (boo) - my mistake coming out of Le Mans and was powerless to defend ... we ran pretty close until lap 19 when I made a mess of T15, and that was that ...
Some good racing as the Legends v Shark fight goes on, and well happy with a much improved drive from me - just the solitary incident point, and going from 12th to 5th.
