Hi all, I've been very busy lately, I didn't have time to practice just did 25 laps at most before Brianza race evening so I didn't expect anything but fun last Sunday.
Qualy: top ten, better than expected, almost every lap was a new PB for me or close.
First race: Good start, I think I gain Mel's position before first turn but he was a bit faster than me and re-gained it soon. Unfortunately I got too close to him before parabolica, I was just about to brake when I bumped him, I had already lifted the the gas pedal but was not enough
maybe the draft was too strong, I didn't feel a thing but Mel's car obviously did, sending him violently out of the track and ruining his race. I just wanted to have a good clean fight with you Mel but failed again. Totally my fault.
After that I had fight with Ed, he passed me on the pit stop, well, I think I was already out of the pits but I saw him approaching so fast that I had to "let" him pass, otherwise I could have caused another incident. Ed did some really good laps at the end, I chased him as fast as I could without success, making a fatal mistake that finished my race in lap 11th. Well done Ed.
2nd race: I had a probably not deserved pole position :-[ but, hey, I think I haven't been very lucky lately so I won't complain about it :
Hectari took it on the start and Phelps passed me too before first turn but he missed his braking point, went wide and almost hit the outside barrier while I was on the "good" racing line...then I saw him recovering his car and trying to recover, with great risk, the racing line where I already was, I had to slow down first and even brake in the middle of the first corner to avoid crashing, I think we even touched...that was dangerous mate, no need for that in first corner
Nothing remarkable after the first lap, a couple of fast guys overtook me but this time I was able to do some good laps at the end without errors to avoid Ed catching me.
Thanks SR4L and specially to Marcel and DjC for making this event possible and my apologies again to Mel
cya soon
