Porsche 917 League - Round 3 - Osterreichring - Reports
#1
Quali: Super busy on track. On almost every hot lap after the outlap there's someone exiting the pits and not waiting. But that wasn't why I couldn't beat DH or DJC, they were just too damn fast. My turn in at the first part of Texaco was very reluctant throughout the sessions, but I benefitted from good stability braking into the chicane. (50:20 diff, preload 5)

Race1: 3rd on the grid, got a very good start and managed to take 1st place by turn 1. DH was quicker than me through Bosch so I had to go defensive but generally it was an uneventful and successful race. Finished 1st.

Race2: 10th on the grid, steadily through the first chicane then got a bit of a hunger on. Followed DJC for a bit and eventually passed him on the inside of Dr Tirok but soon after passing another car (Ramon?) I was too wide into Raiffeisenhügel, got onto the grass and speared back onto the track taking DJC out. Sorry! :-[ After pitting I was out in front of DH and about to lap Tobias but he had a tank slapper at Dr Tirok and straightened out right on the racing line and there was no avoiding. All part of racing ;D I did try to beat DH's fastest lap but couldn't do it. This race was a lot of fun but I apologise if I was too aggressive in places. Finished 4th.

For Road America I right foot braked. Kyalami and Osterreichring were left foot. For Belgium I'm thinking right foot again for more feel.
