I had a great event again 
Thanks for hosting Marcel.
QUALIFY
I left pit as soon as possible for qualify, and found myself behind DJ. We helped each other with the draft for 4 laps and then I ran out of fuel. Only 16 thousandths between us and luckily I had the faster lap 8) My 7th pole in a row!
RACE 1
I think DJ and Marcel had a fight for 2nd place the first lap and that gave me the chance to leave them behind. With no one breathing down my neck, I could put in some fast laps. I was sure that the guys behind were going to help each other out with the draft to close in on me but that never happened. Pitstop and refuel on lap 6, and I had a comfortable drive all the way to finish. Woho! 8)
RACE 2
Started from 10th, obviously. I was following my brother but somehow Edwin squeezed himself in between us at T1 8) So I was following Ed to Parabolica where I overtook him. But in the middle of the corner there was a huge crash and in the big cloud of smoke, I saw Marcel standing there, facing the wrong direction. I was lucky to avoid it and continue, now in 5th place! I had a fight with Phelps who didn't want to let go of his nice position, but he crashed out by himself at Parabolica. I was running in 3rd for a long time and slowly closing in on DJ in front. When pitting on lap 7, I was not far behind, maybe 2-3 seconds. But of some reason they gave me a 54 sec stop, and I saw DJ disappear again
Towards the end of the race, I suddenly hit a broken suspension part under the bridge after Lesmo corners, in really high speed, and lost control of the car. I was really lucky to be able to continue without damage (a little dizzy, maybe). Race could have been over if I had hit something. Finished 3rd 
Maybe not the most fun track in the calendar... It was a real pain to drive at the bankings. The standard layout is more fun, but still only 4 "real" corners
