I absolutely agree!
The BT44 is a wonderful car and Zolder is a very interesting track that I always enjoyed. Also this time.
Q – I didn't manage to come up with a PB but a 1.22.low earned me P4, which was absolutely OK.
R – Congratulations and respect to the TOP 2 for their incredible pace and consistency, as well as close racing!
I started in row 2 on the inside line, which gifted me the inside into T1. That allowed me to take P3 in front of David Coyne, who immediately showed a great pace. I tried to take it easy during the first laps in order to bring the tyres to temperature without destroying them immediately. David was close behind me, but it is not easy to overtake in Zolder. In lap 3, David and I almost came together in the chicane. Although David avoided crashing into me, I saw in the mirrors how he had a come-together with Andi who was just behind him. Really sorry that you couldn't continue after that as we would have a good fight for P3 (at least as long as I would have been able to keep David Coyne behind me :
.After Lap 3 nothing could stop me from a podium position but myself or an unsuccessful lapping attempt. I was able to keep the car on the track without being lapped by the TOP 2, while lapping went very well (although I had my moments
). Finally, P3 in Zolder is a great result for me and already my second podium after Interlagos. Also great a race for the RBR team since Andi also picked up very good and valuable points.See you in Zandvoort!
