| I'm still at work! | |
| Was it a dry race? Wondering what kind of times people were | |
| posting. After a bit of practice at the weekend I was quite | |
| confident that I could do well, but you never know how fast | |
| everyone else is going to be. | |

| That was a pretty frustrating race... | |
| @Moussa - I don't think Paul was lagging for you, he divebombed | |
| me at the chicane right before the hairpin and completely spun | |
| himself out (you'll see on my video) and I was watching his dot | |
| when I got through the hairpin and it looked like he was still | |
| there and perhaps he backed up in front of you or something. | |
| Just got to work and I got a quick project to do and then I'll | |
| do my race report. | |

| Q: 5th; car just didn't feel comfortable on the options so my | |
| last attempt to quali I went on primes and set a 1:09.1 | |
| R: 3rd; (Pr3-Op9-Pr11-Pr12) great launch off the line and went | |
| side by side with my teammate through turns 2 and 3, and then | |
| got the advantage as Cam ran wide at turn 7. | |
| I pulled away a tiny bit but I didn't have enough to get into | |
| Livo's draft so Cam overtook me at the last chicane on L2. I | |
| lost it at the exit of Turn 8 on that lap and lost a spot to | |
| striker, but was able to get it back going down the DRS | |
| straight, and soon enough I was right behind Cam again. I got a | |
| better exit out of Turn 8 than him and got to turn 9 before him | |
| and was on the inside, but as we were going around the sweeper I | |
| got the tiniest of taps from Cam and got sent straight into the | |
| wall and broke my front wing. So I limped around to the pits, | |
| put on some options and soldiered on. | |
| I spent pretty much the entire race by myself just trying to | |
| make up time from there. I was able to make my options last 9 | |
| laps, so I got right back on to my old strategy again and in my | |
| 3rd stint I made too many mistakes and spun out, damaged my wing | |
| twice from the red mist I was seeing. I overtook my teammate in | |
| the hairpin on L22 as he had spun himself out on his worn tires, | |
| and on the next lap we had an issue in the pits where Cam had to | |
| wait for the team to change my tires and replace my front wing, | |
| oh well...unlucky with that I suppose. | |
| From then on I pressed forward setting good times and catching | |
| Castrol, but he had ducked into the pit lane before I could | |
| overtake him and then I went to work on Paul. I was catching him | |
| and when I came out of the hairpin on L30, I saw striker had | |
| spun himself out and Paul attempted to overtake him on DRS that | |
| lap... he got all crossed up at the last chicane and I shot | |
| right past him on the front straightaway. I was all over the | |
| place on L31, so Paul was able to close back up on me quickly | |
| and he tried a complete divebomb job on me at T9, spun himself | |
| out and smacked the wall. | |
| Didn't do a good enough job chasing down Striker so he finished | |
| 7 seconds ahead of me. Got my first podium finish of the year | |
| but definitely don't feel like I earned it; I drove a pitiful | |
| race. | |
| I got frustrated for a little bit after the contact I had with | |
| my teammate, but then just remembered that Cam probably didn't | |
| know I was there and thought he had the pass complete. (I bet on | |
| his screen I didn't even get to the turn 9 first!)This game | |
| isn't allowing me to have good connection when I play you guys | |
| from Australia/NZ for whatever reason. It's nearly impossible | |
| for me to go wheel to wheel with anyone and it's making it a lot | |
| less fun because I always have to watch where I am going and | |
| make sure I don't lag-take someone out. I'm pretty sure Moussa | |
| is having the same problems I'm having and I'm almost 100% sure | |
| that was the cause of his contact with Supanash T1 of Turkey. | |
| Oh well - we push on to another week. Good run Moussa. | |
