Folks, I've to admit it: Friday was already my fave day in the week (as it is probably for the 99% of people on Earth): homemade pizza with anchovies, Leffe beer, quality family time... now, knowing we've a recurring appointment with the WTCC on that day, it's like the icing on the cake.
I mean... Every week I look at the calendar and make a countdown to Friday Night: I'm in love!!
As Sean said it was great fun yesterday (as usual).
A bit of sour taste for WTCC Hungaro cause when I was practicing there I was running way better (1:52 low) and I don't know why but yesterday I drove kind of distracted there (my errors cost me the 4th place). I had very close-quarter duels with
@Shannon Flynn and after a few laps I lost grip on Turn 2 and Blaine took advantage of that, overtook me and kicked me out of the podium.
WTCC Zandvoort was great. One of my favorite tracks ever. Qualy 2nd, got a bad start cause I realized my wheel was turnet 180 right
, caught up with the two cars ahead and after some decent laps I finally took back the second place, reaching Nance who was mocking around waiting for us
(avoided a collision on his left side for a hair at the Vodafonebocht turn)
ADAC Redbull Ring was equally fun. Only 7 of us on track this time tho. I drove the Camaro there (as usual!) and boy that car is a brick of love. It looks cool in the replay I've to admit it, but it's really... REALLY heavy to drive.
At least I didn't spin this time and disqualified. Finished third after Crazy James and Mr. Flynn.
To sum it up: GREAT RACES AGAIN!
T1s on all circuits went perfectly and level of respect on the tarmac was great with all the players aware of their surroundings and such.
One last note is that Alien
@James Nance
was clearly on a rampage mode, collecting those 3/3 first places (-22 sec on Hungaro and starting from the back of the grid on RedBull Ring!)
Simply unstoppable!!
That's why we'll put an ad online for another Alien to give him a bit of challenge in the first places!!
Lastly: teaser for our third appointment will follow... maybe not that soon but... it'll come!
You guys have all a fun weekend!
