Qualify went great, unexpected pb.
Race 1 I had a great start, tried to get away from Gorka and the gap was about 2 secs until we came across Paul Swire who was driving slowly, on the racing line after turn 2.
I passed him safely but my advantage was gone. Then came pit. I had the first box, things went great until I got on my way again, finding myself in traffic and losing the lead there.
Race 2 started great from p2, I got the lead and with a nice slipstream battle after lap 1, I managed to keep the inside line for turn 1, while Gorka and DjC were drafting to get by me and they did but they went too wide for the corner and I kept P1 there.
Next lap, DjC was inside for T1, I gave him room while still ahead for the most part but he tapped my rear wheel and I spun around. No real damage but I had to wait a while to enter the track safely. Had a nice fight with Bryan where it got physical again but we both could make our way again without too much problems. 5th place...
Race 3 again a good start, found myself in 5th after first lap and had a go at Everon. He had trouble exiting turn 1 and I was able to get fully alongside on the right, only to find out he wasn't going to give me room in t2, he cutted across like I wasn't there and again I spun but this time, I got collected by Bryan who couldn't help it.
Soo... Heavily damaged I stumbled to my pit and repaired but it was done. I tried to get fastest lap and got up to Neela in the last lap, who was in 10th place. I easily could have passed her and get her point (and possible fastest lap) but I thought she deserved that 10th place (well done Neela!!!) so I backed down.
See ya at Monaco :o
