great racing fun again and looking forward to the whole championship.
I started training with a setup from Kyalami but i should have left it the default that might have been easier.
With quite a few training laps under my belt I felt quite confident to not make stupid mistakes but i should have read the race memo more carefully. I was not prepared for the mandatory pit stop and started with fuel for the full distance. after 14 laps or so i found myself in P1 and despite not having made a mistake this did not feel right. It also could not be the tyre wear forcing the others to pit. I therefor concluded I must have missed the mandatory pitstop rule and would still have to go. I was trying to do the stop as late as possible to not carry around excess fuel for too long but then the tyres began to wear out a bit and it felt like a better idea to come in. I also tried to reduce the fuel addition in the menue but that proved to be too difficult with the VR goggles on and the keyboard behind the wheel. I ruined 2 laps with this attempt. I then just came in had a 51 sec stop and drove P8 home which for me is not a bad result considering the level of the field.
I felt some pain holding a glass this morning as there was a lot of steering required with theses cars.
