My thanks also to all those responsible for sorting out the various issues so we could have a great race on a great track rendition.
I enjoyed the race, finishing P9 after starting P11. The 3 or 4 guys around me early on were a pretty even match, all of us trying to compete without endangering the others. I had a tow on the long straight on lap 2 and I got by Jesus at the crest and down hill left. It was a bit risky and I think Jesus eased off at the last second when he saw I was going for it. I have to thank Hectari and Gorgias for their advice on gearing. I gained a couple of mph even with a heavier fuel load. Thumbs up to you guys!
A half a lap after that pass, with Cosimo, me, Jesus, and Christoh running in a pack I got shot up out of the carousel and lost 2 positions and several seconds. A few more bobbles followed and I never saw another car up close for the rest of the race. But such is the nature of the ring. Was still enjoyable and a huge challenge for 90 minutes. Great call on the 20% damage.
