Two words from me.
Practice before qualy,cried for help!!
Couldn't feel the front,no grip at all and massive understeer.
Many drivers offered help,thank you all,and in way i cured underst.
I knew this track,right turns,is eating left front so it was impossible via camber and different rire pressure to save it.
Dan offered me a setup and viola!!!
Car is more planted now and i went to 58'!!!!
Thanks Dan!
7th in qualy and fuel for .....half race...BIG MISTAKE
First stint all good,everyone in front started entering pits and i was 2nd when i took my pitstop.
58 sec!!!!!and all other drivers was 30-40 sec.
Lost a lot of time and emerged i think 9th....with the same fuel with others.
If i started the race,like everyone,with fuel for all the race maybe it was better.
Second race,full fuel for the race,started 2nd,had i good fight with John Cook,until fast guys was in my tail,took a little gas off to let them pass,and Mel Fisk was behind me,we had a hug in the last right downhill turn,went to the barriers,lot of damage,300 or more sec to the pits,
finished 11th.
Sorry Mel
Every race with you i learn a lot!
Now F2!!!!
Have a nice day,or night!!!!

I think Dan's setup file was someway faulty. Nikos was also using it and he also had longer pitstops than usual (double the time).
