I didnt want pole here as its hard to see the flag man , I was in a battle with Paul for 2nd and 3rd , I clinched 2nd by a tiny margin , it was a close top 3 .
Race 1
Got a good start , could see I was slowly pulling in front of Gorka then all of a sudden he dropped away and I could see he was on the grass , pushed hard through Curve Grande and Lesmo's and was 3 secs clear of DJ , decided to keep pushing as I didnt want DJ anywhere near my draft , had a big slide going into Curve Grande on lap 3 and decided to cool it as I was punishing the tyres , slowly edged away from DJ and pitted on I think lap 8 for 26 secs , came out a saw Gorka in front so gave chase , the gap seesawed between 1.8 and 2 secs but I couldnt get close enough to pick up his draft , I took time out of him through Curve Grande and Lesmo1 , but he was faster through Lesmo 2 and parabolica , great racing but I want to shoot Gorka's pitcrew .
Race 2
Got a good start but was boxed in , couldnt get a clear path so stayed in the pack , nervously went through Curve Grande waiting for the crashing to start but everyone was OK , approached Lesmo 1 still surrounded by cars , was concentrating too much on watching cars ahead I missed my braking point and hit Gorka (sorry G my fault) this was the start of my Hatred of Lesmo1.
I pulled over and let the field pass then rejoined , passed a couple of cars then caught Nikos , going into Lesmo 1 I was close and lining him up for the exit when his back end let go and he went across my front end, I couldnt avoid contact so that was lesmo1 2 - DC 0 .
Got going again caught up to Stephen got a run on him through Curve Grande and into Lesmo1 , we both braked at the same time but I was carrying more speed and hit him hard ( sry Stephen my fault entirely) lesmo 1 3 – DC 0 ,
Pulled over and let the field past , I thought Stephen had repassed me I didnt realise I had pushed him over the barrier thats why he wasnt in my mirrors , car felt funny so did my pitstop for 28 secs and then drove for a finish , was pleased to see my teammate made a lot better job of this race than me and got the win , well done Christof .
A great nights racing everyone , this is going to be a close championship .
Well Done and big thanks to Paul /Nikos / Gorka / Bullwinkle for organising this , great job guys
