Well, this race was interesting.
A first stint where everything was going wrong, first spinning out in the mini eau rouge. Then after catching up with Mr. Nylander and passing him I lost control in that fast left under the tyre while slipstreaming to get past Mr. de Bruijn. So trying to get the slightly damaged car fast into the pits I earned ourselfs a drive through penalty
The driver change was the next thing that could go wrong and sure it did. Bernd did forget to click on the T in the namelist and I was telling him that he forgot with a muted microphone. So all signs were showing for a perfect race
The next two stints went well if I remember correctly. My second one was pretty good. But we were behind our timetable for 4 stops. So Bernd tried to stretch the next stint by staying one more lap on the track. Nearly everything went well and the tyres still looked good when I took over again.
But now I managed to spin out repeatedly again, and we were counting the minutes down to make it without stopping again. I said that I need another stop, but had fuel for 3 more laps, we both decided that the tyres still looked good and that I should stay out one more lap. And guess what happened? Yeah, the tyres just pretended to be good because two corners after the finish line the front left blew...
I had to go nearly the whole lap with the blown tyre and we lost 5th place to SBRC.
So apart from two computer crashes from my teammate (all when he was spectating )and some problems with the comunication I have to say that the race was an interesting expirience. Thanks for organizing this event and the whole season!
