Really Nice Picture Hedlund, congratulations!
My report:
Qualy: I almost did my pb 1:26:5xx or so, in my second or third lap, very soon. Drivers in front were 1:25:xxx and drivers behind were 1:27:x, so my ninth position in grid was safe. Anyway I did more than 10 additional laps trying to make a better time without success.
First Race:
I was lucky and found myself in the middle after the first lap, drivers behind (Cook and Nikos I think) didn't seem able to reach me (maybe traffic or damage because they were really more consistent than me in practice) and I was not able to catch drivers in front, too fast for me. So I just needed to keep calm and avoid mistakes, I did one or two but didn't touch the wall, no damage, made 5th I think. Much, much better than I expected.
The funny thing is that when I requested pit, I hadn't noticed that pit was already been "autorequested", so what I did was unrequest pit...I slowed down, entered the pit lane but didn't find any red box...almost caused a tragedy rejoining the race :
Second Race:
Funny accident at really low speed sent me flying beyond the swimming pool even before reaching the start line. Maybe I deserved this for being a coward
and asking to start at the end of the grid. Never again ;D
I recommend you to watch it, it is really hilarious.
Thanks SR4L and all drivers that made my life easier under blue flag, it was really difficult in this track, well done!
