    Diffilult race on tyre savings.
    Following Matej and that made car push on some faster corners which made it even worse, but nevertheless good racing
    Had some pace left but just coulnt make a pass stick.
    Maybe try to motivate myself to practice, even s little bit, for final rounds.

    One of my favorite tracks in all simulators. I'm glad that everything turned out well. I don't have the talent to win without practice, so I always have to practice

    I am not sure, where/why I lost that much time in the middle sector to the fast Four.
    Apart from that, my Race went well. Ken and Ben put me under pressure in the First Phase of the Race. The important question in this Series is, how much of the tyres do they use.
    Probably too much, because I was able to increase the gap and suddenly Ed was the car behind. Good Job Ed.

    I maintained the gap to Toni at roughly 30 secs and that was it. Was still fun to Drive the car.

    In race Toni was close behind, but it is more difficult to overtake than I though, I guess, so I managed to keep P3. Got really close to Neil, who probably was really strugeling with his tires last few laps, but couldn't get by. Sorry for the bump Neil, I slowed down as it wouldn't be a fair overtake. Good battle, it should last couple of laps more, I enjoyed it!
    Really great pace from Roman, I thought you would be pitting, but you had a great pace whole race! Congrats!

    I was asking myself that very question Philipp! I grabbed the position ahead of Ben at the start and knowing how tough it was going to be on the front tyres, especially the left, I was hoping to keep them under me till the end of the race. I was a little surprised when the gap to you didn't grow as expected ;) and we both closed up to within a second. But then?? Maybe I had taken too much out of the tyres, but didn't think I had at that point, and then you just disappeared so quickly into the distance :eek:.

    Before I realised it, Ed had closed up on Ben and I and was clearly faster. Eventually he got by both of us and I was then really struggling with front-end grip and braking. On the penultimate lap I just couldn't make it round Copse with any semblance of speed which gave Ben the chance to get by, but I enjoyed the race long duel we had, thanks Ben :D.

    Oh and 3% FL & 21% FR left at the end.
