Finally I joined a 60 Cup race again.
The 911 2.0 went well here with great topspeed and very good fast cornering.
P3 in qualy, nice. I had a great start and went into the lead! But....the bollards at the chicane....both me and girindus were caught and we crashed!
OK, here we go, once again, KETCHUP!
The car was damaged but it was ok enough to keep going and bit by bit I managed to get forward. Great pass on Truman who fought with massimo and I sneaked by!
Massimo was now in front of me and after two laps I tried a pass outside where the old track goes to the newer track but unfortunatily we touched and I swerved off the track, damn.
I managed to get back and pass Truman who had been in trouble. When I caught Massimo I entered the pits.
Full tank and lets see!
It went well although I made a few mistakes and already had 2 cuts... I got by molleri who was on good form. I had some luck where others went off and so I gained positions.
girindus had made a great first stop and stayed in front, no way to catch him! Good man. But he had severe issues with hayman in the Simca and deserved better.
I seemed to me hayman hadn't practiced or a damaged car because he took lines I never saw from him before.
After the second stop I was 5th behind girindus who was faster and got away bit by bit. But he got it wrong in the chicane again and I flew by!
A VERY scary moment happened when molleri had keyboard trouble right as he came out of the pits and he slowly crossed the track when I was approaching full speed!!! JUST avoided him, oh man that was something.
In front Dimi was catching fred when fred got a phonecall from Mercedes to replace Lewis for 2022 so he had to stop at the hairpin. I gained 4th place!
Dimi was to far ahead and got 3rd. Shags and Alvaro got 1st and 2nd and so it finished. Well pleased with 4th after that start incident! And 7th overall! Great.
Grats to taffy for taking the overall victory! With a fastest lap of 2.17 that is some consistent driving!! In practice we were pretty close. Could have gone better for me.
I hope to join again in this marvelous series.
Next up is Longford, nice for Porsche with 20kg....
