Well the race bearly got started its the first lap and I'm at the receiving end of Yerkes boy racer impatience, that was a desperate dive only ever going to end in tears. Reminds me of Sergio Perez at Monaco last year with what you said Yerke, "it worked for me before". It work for Perez once aswell but not the second time.
RACE 2
I started really well, I think I was 10th and I managed to gain 5-6 places by the first corner, then it was just Yerke, Mel and Hector to catch. Lap 2 first corner I overtook Yerke after he locked up but then he turned in to make contact with me again, I'm starting to think he doesn't like my colour scheme or its personal, lol. I got away with drifting out the love tap.
Reading from the choice of words it appears that you're still very dissapointed that I ruined the race for you. I pointed this out myself but it seems I haven't been apologetic enough. I shouldn't have done that move, 9 out of 10 it ends up in tears. At the start and first couple of corners I was driving so close to you that, despite better judgement, I reacted on impulse when seeing the opportunity. At that moment I didn't think about if I would've got passed, that I needed to defend my position for the remaining 22 laps because simply you were faster than I was. Foolish move by me, I'm very sorry. Also my apologies for the love tap, had to press look right button, whilst struggling for grip. I had to yield there but that didn't go spotless, that was some good outbraking by you.

Actually, I was suprised that you apologized to me. I replayed the incident and it looks like I should've yielded. I wasn't sure about what to say so I just said no problem and left the server. It doesn't feel right to me that I got 3rd place that way. I have send Bryan a PM with a replay to get a view of it. If I was wrong, it seems fair to penalize me for that incident. The whole event didn't go well and I still feel bad about what happened to you DC and Bart.
That was my race report.
