After a great free practice, where I finished P4, with old types, we thought we gonna have a chance to fight for the front - Unfortunately in my 8 laps I didn't get any lap without yellow or red flags, so I have to start last tomorrow.
Hope we have a better luck tomorrow!
It has ups and downs, ofcourse in that situation ur hoping for a SC as team to still get a shot, but the downside can also be that there comes a SC on a point where u almost grab a whole lap lead over the car behind, of have a decent gap to ' controle ' the race and that can all be put in the trashcan then.
btw IGTC 2009 - FZR 20kg
IGTC 2010 - FZR 23kg
both races FZR fastest lap over a second quicker then the fastest XRR
if you make the quali results the startgrid for race 2, and the quali results with reversed top X for the first, people wont sandbag in quali because it will make the start place for the 2nd race bad.
You could also chance the quali thing a little, make it a 2 lap quali fastest lap counts for race 1 and the 2nd fastest lap for race 2. Then combine the results of those races to get the grid of race 3 .
Or after quali, reverse the grid for the first race instead of the 2nd, mostly in race 1 people got more brains into t1.
After a night of sleap i can look at a bit more clear, i was defenatly one of the 'to agressiv' ones yesterday and need to relax more in the 500 and will do my best at that.
But, looking at other accidents aswell i think we should all look in the mirror and make sure we do a way better job in the 500 with ALOT less SC's and just fair hard fighting. Would be nice if it would end up that we need to pit under green instead of the normal SC pitstops.
