lol paul. Ho well, as i expected, i qualif second, close to Mario, but i was not hoping the pole, so from there that point of view, it was perfect.

My start like a turtle compare to Mario and Jimmy (i think, not shure, i confuse both spyker on track) who just started like theyr ass were in fire :evil: at T1 i was 3rd. Also on Lap 1, i didnt both SS little slower cause of my cold tire, and Steveb was pushing in my ass that made me nervous and i was confused on his speed. But that didnt last untill last corner where i lost him :roll: as i tought would hapend :wink: . Folowing close on this track is giving you alot of chance to spun. I passed the spyker while he went wide at T2 (if i remember good). Mario with 11 sec in front after 1/4 of race ( i spun twice) and he did same witch put him right in front of me, and that seen to screw his 3 stop strategy. After a while, he seem to crash somehwer cause i was 1st neer middle race. from there i push untill the end.

I know that neer lap 18, i did a 1:14.675 and i check my replay and it was a clean lap!!! Youhou! (admin may confirm it, but as an old admin, i would of put it clean 8) ) Dont ask me how i did it, but it was close to perfection (for me), i think i did a 14 also 1-2 laps later, then i pit for my 1st stop, and i tried untill end of race to do it again, but it never came closer than 15.flush. I felt so mutch this race, i was pacing with full concentration untill 3-4 laps neer end, i was wondering how many was still on track and thinking that was lapping everbody... Esse at Pit and toucht the vibe too mutch and spun in that BIG Vodafone logo at right of strat straight!!! lost front wing with 2 laps left!!! Outch, just like Montreal, i was afraid Bilbo catch me back. I pit out behind him and i push like hell to keep the blue flag over him and giving no choice to let me go lap him back or he would of get DQ, hihi sorry for that, i want to catch back my montreal stupid fault like if nothing hapend :mrgreen: :twisted:

Congrats all, Cya at next race!

Yeah Flow, I tried to get away from that blue flag but I had to give up. We were too far in the race (last lap!) to risk getting DQ over the "honor" of finishing on the same lap or not.

My Q went better than I expected, I was aiming for a high 16 and got a 16.3, which is quite good for me with a heavy load (2 stops strategy).

My race was pretty much uneventful as I was alone for much of the race except when being lapped or lapping a few other drivers. The most significant event was right at the start when Doris in front of me did not start on the green lights. I touched him lightly but still damaged my front left suspension. That did not affect the car too much so I waited for my scheduled pitstop to fix it, at which time the team had plenty of time to do the fixes (16 seconds pitstop but I was more than 45 seconds in front of the guy behind me so no worries).

That's pretty much it for tonight. Congrats to all finishers and see you at Silverstone in 2 weeks!

Too bad to here that Mario, happy that you kid is fine. 2-3 years ago, i had to park my car in pit for at least 2-3 minutes to see my doughter, she was sick and wife was not at home at that moment, i put here on the sofa behind and still race :roll: bad father, lol Hitman and Kaali was wondering what i was doing in pit, getting out, then going back again... :lol: .

Last night, I went lucky, neer 3/4 of race, steve was folowing me after i lapepd him and at last SS neer adelaide i spun and went in grass, drove my car in reverse gear to avoid the wall, and luck was with me, i manage to just lick the wall with my 2 right side tire, minor damage (11 sec repair), that was the only worst moment of race that could of end my race right there.

Bad race for me, I missed my start, passing close to wedge my engine which has caused a hit between me and Grumble (sorry). My suspension damaged not one lap does. Worse at the end of the line I weigh on the clutch instead of the brakes bingbang in de wall lose my front wing. I go to the pit and after i have one lap behind all. Bad end to wedge my engine in de middle of de race(35-37 laps).
