Finally I came back to race, and it was a really interesting race for me!
First time here in the old interlagos, so I spent all the practice session trying to remember the track... with not much success indeed.
4th place in qualif was not a bad result, but the target was not to lose the contact by ade and Clive during the first laps... At the start, I immediately gained the position on Clive, but he didn't give up at all, and we went side by side for the first 4 or 5 corners withouth any contact.. It was amazing
I understood that Clive was a bit faster during the first laps, so I hooked my Pork at his exhaust, trying to disturb him a bit, but he was simply perfect during the first laps. The battle was really clean and we changed our position for at least 4-5 times, with some good line crossing. After 6 or 7 laps I guess he made a mistake, so our battle has ended, and I tried to hang ade's pork without success. Sometimes I was slightly faster on my laptimes, but the pace wasn't good, so I was at 6-7 seconds by him for the rest of the race.
At the last lap ade made a mistake, and I recovered all the gap, but it was too late to try an attack, and we finished our race with a 0.5 second gap...
However it was a month since my last race, and I was pretty happy for the great fun in the duel with Clive... well done mate!
Grats to John and ade! Cu for the next
