Rnd 8 F1 Legends Silverstone Historic Race Reports

Rick and Gary for great clean battles

I enjoyed it. Except I couldn't hold you off! Never stood a chance. You were so quick and my tires were worn out.

I had done one miracle mid 27 in practice but could never duplicate it. Qualified P7 which is typical for me. Had a great 1st gear setup so got along side Ratus in T1. Held my inside line but he was squeezed in a sandwich. There was contact and he careened off to the right. Looks like he made a great recovery though in the long run. I got confused with my fuel consumption and mistakenly pitted after 10 laps. This made me heavy mid race and low on grip towards the end. But none of that really changed my outcome in the end. Even with a little better grip I would never have been able to hold off Dan in the end.
