    Needed a while to let the race sink in. Had not a good start and Ken took the oppertunity to overtake me. Since then I followed in his slipstream but I had not enough straightline speed (it felt more than just 5 to 7 km/h less) to have any crack on him. Only in the corners I had to take care not to drive into his rear.
    That was a bit tricky but went quite well for the most of the race. I decided not to force the issue and waiting for a mistake. Maybe in traffic but due to my inexperience to handle it I rather lost time than gaining some.
    Later I got my chance and passed Ken, but fought back and then I decided to hold on, which was not smart. I have no idea what did go through my mind, it was clear that I lost the position and even if I could stayed aside into the last corber, my topspeed would hamper any chances to overtake onto the straight.

    The result you can see here


    Somehow I got the position back as Ken clipped a curb too hard, but that was fortunate. Next time I have to work better on my set up, I did go with the default wing settings and a shorter gear ratio. However the race was fun, I´m exited for the next one ;)
