Race 1: Had a good first lap and a bit of luck and got into the lead. Then it was just a matter of keeping a balance between pushing and keeping the tyres from not burning. I think I did a decent job at that one
Race 2: Bad start but had some help from Ben (thanks!) to keep me in the lead. After that it was basically the same as race 1, drive as fast but don't kill the tyres. I actually had my first restart from the lead this time and I think I didn't do that bad.
Race 3: Had a wonderful first lap going from 10th to 4th until I got rear ended and got last. After that I tried to bumpdraft myself back to a top 10 finish which eventually worked.
Even though it wasn't the cleanest race I have to admit I've had some of the best fun of the season!
Thanks again for this league iCon racing and the bunch!
Type of Protest - Unfair Overtake or whatever) unfair hit
Description - Your opinion of what happened) he just hits me on my right rear which makes me crash. He then proceeds to keep hitting me until I'm way out of the track, if he just lifted off I could've rejoined a lot faster and not lose so much places.
Which Event / Session: (Quali or Race 1/2/3) Race Three Lap 1 second to last turn

Gasiunas (TexasLTU) was just far too hot into this corner. He was sat on de Jong's rear bumper as they braked for the turn, and as de Jong brakes, Gasiunas hits de Jong, pushing de Jong away from the corner and into a spin. At this point, Gasiunas could have applied a lot more steering than he did and steer to the inside of the corner. He didn't.
A pretty clear-cut case of being too close and not giving enough room to your opponent. Warning for Gasiunas.
Far from a good race for me. Ballast ruined my chances of a good quali. Race 1 wasn't that great because of a bad pace. In race 2 I got spun. Race 3 was on a great comeback from 21st or something to 11th untill my internet decided to fail on me.
Looking forward to the next round with hopefully a lot less ballast

I think you're talking about the 125cc versions Erik. Last time I checked both the Yamaha tzr50 and Aprilia rs50 ( you were on about mopeds weren't you battery?) have the same engine, the Am6 2-stroke engine. Imo i'd go for the rs50 really. It handles better than the tzr, I had a ride on both the bikes and the rs50 just corners a lot better
All I can say is, I'm going to recover from the bad pre-season, show you guys some action because that's what the viewers are watching for isn't it? I just hope the tyres will last with that attitude :P
