No offence to Tommy at all, who did a great job, but Mr McKowen did a splendid middle stint to put T7R back in contention. Tommy just drove around alot.
Basically, yes. If you look at the F1RST line-up, I wouldn't really call many of them "amateurs"
Don't underestimate the pressure having someone 3 sec. behind you with only 7 laps to go and lots of blueflagged cars to pass in front, that not always give room when expected.
We always say "we win together and we loose together"
and everyone, even our guy on the radio/TS who tells the driver how much to refuel or the gaps of the other cars or who talks to calm down the driver when there is stress ahead, is as responsible for the result in the end as everyone else involved.
Like I said: A Team Sport.
Oh of course. I was chatting to Tommy after the race and he said "oh I was just controlling the race at the end". Not sure quite how true that was, but nFaculty were definitely catching! Was an exciting finish to a nice race
