Here comes my report.
I was taking this race as a defensive race. Not comfortable at all with the car no matter how many changes I tried with the setup.
Qualifying was better than expected making second after Marcel\'s super lap.
Race1
Starting second I new my only chance of winning was to make a superb start and then trying to hold Marcel for the rest of the race :lol:
I was able to make a very good start, reaching side by side with Marcel to the first braking. I new he had the inside so there was no point risking the race there, so I just tried to care for what was coming behind.
Great battle for the following 12 laps with Stefan, passing each other several times. Unluckily we had a little undeliberate contact, enough for spinning through the grass and having to restart engine, making it to the end of the race in 7th place.
Race2
This was an espectator race. Whatching first Stefan and ? fighting till they made contact in the first braking. This brought me to be the espectator of the battle between David C and Jonathan, remembering me the old day battles of the beggining of this ARI F3 league. I just kept trying to reach them but couldn\'t remaining always in a 2.5-1.5 sec distance. The last laps were of great emotion as we approached Nikos and then Everon. They were very gentle letting as through.
Race3
The lottery race was quite good to me. Lucky to avoid the accidents at the start and the after chicane crashes too. Tried to hold Jonathan and Marcel, but Jonathan was in god mode and Marcel was just too fast. Mel Fisk as he was leading the race suddenly disappeared from screen. As I had no pressure from behind, at this moment I just limited to race to make it third in the end and score the points.
