Croft Race Reports
#3
My report.

My Qualifying went for a non valid time. Someone had crashed the poles at the end of the straight that I used for braking reference. When I got there I missed that reference and went wide through the gravel (or is it bumpy tarmac?) that made me get some tenths advantage that ended up in a "cheat" lap of 1.21.6
Time was running out and tried to get a fast valid lap. Only had 1 lap change as session time was ending. Did 1.22.1 which should have put me in 7h instead of 5th.

Well, that didn't really matter as in the start of race 1 I had some slight contact with someone being thrown against the left wall and seing my car flying and flying till landing with my steering turned 45ยบ left if I wanted to keep the car straight. I went to the pits to spend 300sec repairing. The rest of the race was an interesting battle against another driver (M. S. I think are his name initials) and Bryan trying to lap us fighting behind the other driver to be let pass.

The second race, starting from the rear at 17th or 19th place I took an easy start avoiding problems, seing tire piles flying and cars being hit and spinning. I had an early battle against the same driver as in race 1 till he made some kind of mistake, the I found myself in a group of 4 cars (Marcel taking the lead of it). At the end I was approaching Everon when at the straight he was hit by something invisible (as he told me later) and was thrown to the grass and lost his position.

Race 3 (reversed grid). Starting in 10th and avoiding trouble I was able to find myself quickly in third position. After some laps I reached to be first but receiving a big battle from behind from Kei??? (don't remember quite if he was kei). After 5 or 6 laps holding him I was a little wide at turn 6 and he made the pass through the inside. At the final lap, I was closing up on Giorgio to lap him when he spun at turn 10 and I could not avoid him, hitting him, stalling and losing a couple of places ending up in fourth.

Can't wait for the F2 league to start.
