Qualy
I struggled to get a time out of the car , my setup was just not working for me , for some reason the track appeared more slippy as my car was sliding a lot and the times wouldn’t come to me , but a run on light fuel kept me just ahead of Bryan who was my target .
Race 1
Got an awful start for me , car just didn’t bite and slid sideways so I had to back out of it and follow the guys in front , I had fuelled light with the intention of making places at the start but that didn’t work this time , I harried Bryan around the first lap and passed him up the back straight but then went for my pitstop . came out on clear track so got my head down and pushed , I was doing reasonable laptimes and making places but then the last of the late brakers (I don’t know who) drove into the back of me hard at turn 4 , this put me off and damaged the car , it was still drivable but kept trying to swap ends , this pretty much destroyed my championship battle with Bryan .
Race 2
Tried the same tactic again but again I fluffed the start after that I cant really remember much about this one apart from my tyres going off near the end .
Race 3
Got a good start (at last) avoided the first corner melee and made places , avoided the crashing at turn 7 and was in first , I thought I had a faint chance of a win which might have put me back into contention with Bryan , but some hero slammed into me whilst trying the impossible at turn 2 and put me into the barriers , race and championship over
Well done Bryan , Paul and SR4L for putting on a great championship , well done Marcel a worthy champion indeed . Well done Bryan we had a good fight all season I will have to try harder on the next one .
