Race Report Nordschleife
;D ;D ;D
@ Nikos things can change very quick ;D
@ Bryan I can understand this fully
My (this time really short ) report:
I start this race without any hope that I'm able to finish because in the past private und public practice sessions I was not able to finish 2 laps without a mistake and damage my car.
But I think in the real racing world drivers has also prefered tracks and some that they are not like.
All happend as expected 2nd lap mistake suspension damaged -> pitstop arround 50 sec.
but then I was really surprised I was able to drive some laps (not very quick) without
damaging my car and suddenly I had the feeling there is a little chance to finish the race and get some points
After a second (very long 157 sec) pitstop (I damaged the car again) my focus was only to finish no matter on which position :
The last 2 laps was very very very dramatic and hard for me because my car was (surprise) damaged again and I was how some other drivers too confused about the message 00:00 time remain
not sure what I've to do I stopped my car. After realizing that the race is still on I was completly "finished" because my brain was tired my car was damaged and behind me (now really short) was mel fisk.
The last lap was a unbeliveable fight with my car and against mel fisk because he reduced the spacing between us very quickly but I finished (very short) before him.
race finished with a mushy brain but not unsatisfied with the result.

As situation in my country is dire as you all know, my sponsor has lost all his money, so no hope him rescuing me, I had to do all I could to finish at Nurbs.
Well boss, tables just turned, Im very dissapointed of you, once you go swim in Monaco harbour, next you go Nurbs picknicking, better shape up and bring sone good points to the team, or Ill ask Neela to come and help and you will be sent to dishes department forever 8)
