Had good event.
3 drivers had the speed to win the race, Matias, Ed or Me. Our times in practice had been very close all week.
I did 2 flying laps in qualify and put it on pole
.
In the race, I had a bad start and I got swamped. ED, Matias and even Dan got passed. Dan crashed in the 1st corner, that put me 3rd behind Matias.
I was like a rash on Matias's rear the whole 1st lap. Any attempt to over take I got squeezed.
At start of long back straight Matias made a mistake, he put his gear stick into 3rd instead of 5th and I was passed.
Ed was long way in front but I still had him in sight, and was gaining very slowly.
I boobed up my pitstop, I braked way to early so lost a load of time, also had a very long 29.50 second pit to make things worse. Unknowing to me, Matias behind me crashed himself out of the race, him getting stuck in a guardrail.
Again, Ed was way in front. The last 2 laps I could only reduce the gap.
Ed won 4 in a row now, he doing a Max Verstappen. Can he win them all? Who has the speed to stop him?
Pittsburgh International Raceway is next.
I have decided for the last race, we go with Matias idea of using the history version of Oulton Park instead of the 2015 version. I will update the pages soon.
