Mikael Larsson, Blue Flag Racing - DNF This was a crappy race for me, nothing at all went right. In the race there was a small traffic jam in lap 1 and I even touched my teammate Kristofer, making him spin. Not good. I was dead last and lost about 2seconds a lap to the guy in front of me, couldn't find any good rhythm. A few laps later I was back to my normal slow speed at this track and was closing in and passed a few drivers. Later on I was chasing David Clark but wasn't that close to him and wasn't pushing it at all. All of a sudden the car refused to stop into turn 2 and I smashed him badly. Really sorry! I expect a penalty for that. A few laps later I crashed the car and the race was over.
Rami Kaukola, Roaring Pipes Maniacs - 1st First few laps I saw that Mike Simian could not get close to me and I was thinking of driving slowly so Dragos can catch us but I didn't not know whether Mike was on hard tyres. Then I got problem so I tryed to keep good speed and it worked. I think I won 5 seconds per stint. Good result for the team.
MIke Simian, Gamercars FOR - 2nd No answer to Rami's pace today, great job Rami. Not my best race but solid points, after I saw Rami's race pace I had to drive for second place. Something didn't feel right with the setup, was a quite conservative setup but just didn't give me the consistency or good tyre wear I had in practice. Lonely race for me really. I didn't feel good, and no one around to play with so just chalked off the laps till the finish.
Iain Wilton, Gameracer FOR - 7th What an absolute nightmare... quite possibly the hardest race I have ever had. I didn't anticipate the hotter track temps, and boy my setup just didn't work. I dropped a couple of places very early being too careful and after that it just went from bad to worse. Spun into T2 and had to wait for a few cars to pass to rejoin, but just had no grip at all. After my first stop I rejoined right behind Haba, and I foolishly tried to stay with him passing a few cars on the way. After 10 minutes my tyres were shot and tbh was all over the place for the rest of the stint. The last stint faired better in terms of tyre management, but by now the damage was done. 7th place I suppose was ok as it could of been alot worse!
Martijn van Bommel, Flying Dutchman Racing - 9th Great race. Had very limited flying time in this car, we got the mod online only working the day before the race. Did some offline practice as online wouldn't work, but it was like the 3rd time I was driving that car, so had to learn the car and track and try to teamspeak (also new), this also goes for Martin Kraaijenbrink. Both of us are new at FDR and I think we can be proud with the race results, 9th and 10th. Thanks to the team who did what they could in helping us getting faster and faster around the track while looking after the tyres and fuel and pit strategy.
Marco Giuliato, Corse Online - 3rd In the first part of every stint I drove with a lot of attention to the tires, so I was faster at the end of every stint. Good battle during the first stint with Peter Carlsson. Then when I passed him I found my rhythm and I gained time by the leading trio. During the second stint another battle with Peter and then with Robin Johansson in the last stint laps. I passed him but Robin repassed me after a hard fought pit stop with a battle to the millisecond. In the third stint I lost 5 seconds due to misunderstandings with some drivers being lapped, but with a few laps driving on top I closed the gap to Robin two laps from the end. But unfortunately we had a contact and for this I excuse myself again with Robin. I see you lost the braking point and I made the same error so I was unable to avoid contact. Anyway a very close and fun race! |
