Qualified 6th but quickly got up into third behind Jeremy and as soon as lap 3 came around I was able to hit DRS and get by. Held the position with Phil behind me until he pitted around lap 9. I had clear track so stayed out until lap 15 expecting Phil to have jumped me but came out just in front of him. Held position for a while then Phil just got by but made a small mistake running wide and I got along side. Made several turns side by side until I got out in front (Think Phil said there was a rub but I saw or felt nothing?). Lap 19 Matthew got me down the main straight; I was able to stay quite close and had DRS a the end but being the final lap not enough time to get by.Race 2 managed to miss some of the accidents and get through into 3rd behind Phil. We got past Simone after a few laps and then had around a 1.5 second gap for the rest of the race. I finally got DRS again on the final lap but no help at that point.Was fortunate to miss some of the incidents the faster drivers got caught up in but then was consistent enough to stay ahead so happy with that.Here you are sitting on pole Simone « Last Edit: June 20, 2017, 10:18:24 PM by Joe » Logged grat Hero Member Posts: 1174 Karma: 16 Re: S17R4: Mugello Post-Race Chat « Reply #3 on: June 20, 2017, 10:13:15 PM » maybe I should just skip race 2... ?

Nil!R1 got to 7th right behind the faster guys when Kero spun and collected me in the process. The subsequent hit with the wall killed my engine so game over!R2 If someone didn't either hit me, I get collected by a spinning car or I spin under my own doing then it wasn't a complete lap..! Time for Zandvoort . . . fingers crossed for some points!

I ended up qualifying in 12th.In race 1, I was bottled up behind slower traffic at turn 2 on the opening lap, when Bacchulum came in too hot and ran into the rear of me, which cost me a few spots. From there, I made a few passes on DJB and Slow_As, but ended up in a bit of a gap and didn't really battle anyone to much for the rest of the race. Just before the race, I chucked on more aero to try to make the car more stable. It helped greatly through the slower part of the circuit where I could really fly, but killed me in the straight. So for race 2, I went back to my original aero.In race 2, on lap 2, Kcender clipped the rear of Grat just in front of me, spinning them both, and I couldn’t avoid a collision with Kcender under brakes as I came around the corner. That damaged my front wing pretty badly, and left me with an awkward reentry, having to let most of the field past, but I thought I'd limp on. I soon realised the damage was costing me about 6 to 7 seconds per lap! I had resisted pitting for repairs, because people were crashing around me and I was actually making a few passes, but finally I decided to pit. It was a mistake not to pit earlier. My lap times went from in the 38s to the 32s. I should have repaired much earlier. After my repair, Mael came out from a stop of his own in front of me. I chased him for a while, but couldn't catch him.Overall, it felt like a tough round.

I think I simply did not expect him to try that pass on lap 2. Last lap, I would have given him more space just instinctively. Anyway: most likely my fault, so apologies.

I was up in the air spiralling and came down nose first into the grass by the fence.Didn't even realise I'd landed on another car. Continued on with a damaged car, which wasn't too bad to drive considering my flyinglesson, and actually made it up 7th then got taken out by another car's spin. Not so lucky with damage this time... 2nd last Good night though, had some good battles. Zandvoort should be interesting in these. Logged NEVER TOO OLD TO RACE ... being competitive can be a PROBLEM though.
