What a race. It was my first race on RD since a long time (too long
) and I was not disappointed.
Qualification 5ème :
I saw a lot of fast guys, and 10min was short. I was not satisfied with my 2 first laps, I tried 2 other. First bad (I can't understand why), better time in second, but I miss a little my breaking on lasts curbs and I slightly improve my time.
Well fifth it's not too bad anywhere I think I was not the only one to improve, so I am content with what I have
But I'm happy to see my teammate first. Grats again Tony
Race 2nd :
Start was hard but fair. I tried to manage with the guy in front and the other behind. But after some lap I can concentrate on front. I'm still fifth and I can follow without problems. I see there are good fighting in front and I stand ready to take advantage of the slightest opportunity.
This opportunity come and I can take the lead. But rapidly I see I'm slower than Teddy was second. He comes out faster than me, and brake better. Hoppefull Croft is a track where is hard to overtake with a good defense. But I've more and more difficulties with my font tires and Teddy was on me, I make a mistake and down at 6th. I can take the fourth. But rapidly I see I'm slower than Teddy who is 2nd. He comes out faster than me, and brake better. Luckily Croft is a track where is hard to overtake with a good defense. But I've more and more difficulties with front tires and Teddy is on me, I make a mistake and down at 6th. I can take the fourth after overtaking Tony who's in difficulties like me with his front tires (same setup
). But Miroslav new 5th come fast on me. Less 10 min to go. And Miroslav is pretty sharp on his breaking compared to me. I try to keep trajectory and protect my breaking, but I'm on limit, my front tires are done, I understeer a lot and I have of big scares on each braking. The second and third stop without fuel (GG guys
) and pass 2nd. I'm happy but I figure it's going to make a big motivation for Miroslav. But I keep the 2nd position until the finish. I see i've the best lap in race and i'm not regular. My setup was too aggressive and if it allowed me to turn quickly to the beginning (but I was blocked in fifth) from the half-race I was in trouble.
Grats Teddy for Win and Miroslav for third (one more lap and I think you will pass me
)
Thank everyone for racing. Daiman for the event, and Gijs for result chart
