Having done so little practice looks like my car setup was good for qualifying but not for the race.
Able to make the fastest lap, most probably because of the lack of grip on the green track, but that green track made for a very difficult car to drive with all the fuel, causing me to really struggle for the first half of the race.
I was also having problems with my H shifter. Sometimes first gear turns into third, and what caused me a lot of trouble yesterday, second gear sometimes disengages then suddenly engages again. That caused me a big sideways moment on race 1 in Lesmo 1.
Also, at race 2 start 2nd gear wouldn't engange for a couple of seconds, that caused many cars to overtake me at the straight. Later at Parabolica the 2nd gear disengaged on the braking then suddenly engaged at the entry of the corner causing another major oversteer moment.
That was the beginning of the end of my race.
That situation helped the car behind me to get close to me and get behind my slipstream and go for the inside before turn 1 Curva Grande. I tried to give enough room, but maybe it wasn't as we kissed tires. I was thrown straight into the wall getting my left front ripped and being the end of my race.
I think I'll miss Montecarlo, won't have time to try to fix the H-shifter this week and you can't join Montecarlo with almost no practices as in Brianza.
