Francisco I think your talking silly when you say aggressive. You had a bad start and I got stuck behind you, then on the run down to the 2nd corner I was side by side and you braked early, I took the line but you didnt want to give it up, thus spining me round and making me a punch bag for others. If you have a problem appeal.

Congrats to David for the series title, bad way for me to lose it but thats life.

Had a decent quali session, only managed 1 proper flying effort and even then I don't think my first sector was great but I got to the line and it was a very decent time so happy with pole.

The start was abit manic, I got bogged down in 2nd gear after going up a gear too early so lost my position to Borut. But managed to overtake him in his draft in the 2nd chicane, after that it was just a case of opening a gap and then controlling my pace. I did not really go flat out once I had a decent size lead and managed to get around some traffic. All round good racing from what I saw, well done everyone, shame a few had issues.

Quali was fun, loved the slippery conditions but was totally unprepared for it, never raced full wet like that. Couldnt hook a decent first or middle sector up at all, 3rd sector was great.

Race was average, I lost so much time after a small freeze which cost me 4th at the time, I know the issue and it will be fixed before my next race. But I think a decent result was achievable here, I lost so much time in the pits and I'm not sure how, maybe overfilled but I lost 15 seconds there, 10 with the freeze so 25 seconds, and considering I was about that behind the leader its not a great result. No doubt I would never catch CJ but I think a podium was achievable. But some nice clean racing atleast, and good backmarkers made it fun.

Grats to the winners.

Pretty decent result, this track is so boring you have to exercise your mind at half distance. Did not have a great race setup so to get 3rd is pretty good, 1 ahead of my title rival so 1 round to go its squeaky bum time.

Delighted for our team Phoenix now we have secured our first Constructors title and with a drivers title to add soon, but who will it be?

Quali was good, kinda surprised by my first attempt as I was stuck behind a couple of slower cars for the last 3rd of the lap but that would have got me pole outright. But 2nd attempt was better even though I again lost time behind a car in Turn 2, so I think I didn't really maximise the laptime.

Race, good start, was pacing myself really and DB stuck with me. He then got me at Turn 1, which I was completly defenseless against with my brake bias set way too forward but no buttons assigned to change it (mental note, assign some). But I managed to stick with DB until he pitted, so I went for a fast in-lap unfortunatly was slow due to a spinner infront. Didn't change the tyres and came out ahead by about 15 seconds but the tyres were really shot so DB got me by about 1.5 per lap and in the end creamed me on the outside mid-lap. At this point I settled for sticking close but 3 mins to go I get the fuel warning and gutted, I had to pit with 1 lap to go. Really novice error on my part, but im learning alot with each race.

Can't take anything away from David though, he had great pace throughout and I noticed this in practice. I have alot to thank him for really because I had settled for 35's for this race but seeing his pace in practice forced me to up my game and we had a great battle. Very well done mate, enjoyed it even though I missed my football because of it :P

Another good race. Had a nice quali session which I managed my best time around here so far so pretty pleased with pole.

The start I got away well and they tucked in behind me but I see in my mirrors a spinner so end of the first lap I had a 4 seconds lead. After about 3 laps it was apparent I was on the wrong tyres and losing time everywhere, I eventually got passed by Francisco after about 17 mins. So I decided to switch strategy and come in very early for a change of tyres and fill up for a 40 mins last stint. The change was dramatic and I was quite easily the fastest on the circuit from that point until I settled behind Les without lapping him as he was a good marker to control my pace with worn tyres, by then I had over 1 minute lead so no need to push. I guess the result looks easier than it was with others having off's but I am pretty confident I would have won this one on outright pace regardless, I actually passed everyone whilst they stopped so I did see very little action.

But I must say backmackers were good for me, I did have 1 moment when approaching a car in the last corner I was on the right side and someone came across me, but I think that was just a misunderstanding and I am sorry if they lost too much time.

I agree about tyre's though, with the rain on track surely the inters would have been better than slicks?

Great race all round. Quali went smooth for the first time, went out first time round and stuck a decent lap in for a banker so I decided to just stick with what I had and be abit more aggressive, that got me the pole.

Race start I got some wheelspin and Ryan slipped by, I sat with him for the first 10 mins or so and then a backmaker balked me (no fault of theirs) and he pulled a gap of about 2.5 which he held. So i thought I would take it easy for the next 10 and be aggressive for the 10 before my pitstop. Ryan span so I passed him before that.

Pitstop was longer than I wanted, and I see David go past and I thought how the hell? Think you kept the same tyres on right DB? So 16 seconds to make up in about 17 mins, the car felt great on less fuel and new tyres. Managed to get past David about 3 mins from the end, he half span I think.

Backmarkers were very good. Well done to Ryan and David.

Overall I can't complain with pole, fastest lap, track record and my first win along with the teams, and to cap it a 1-2!

Overall a pretty decent race, definatly learned alot from it. Was takening quali safe and went for a hard/hard couple of laps for a banker lap, then as I was on my inlap for med?hard the game crashed, had to restart PC so just got in before Quali shut but no time to make a lap. So 2 events 2 last row starts. Made a clean start and braked well early for turn 1, avoided some cars but got punted sideways abit.

In the race I made the wrong choice on tyres for my strategy for the first stint so I was losing time everywhere. Pitstop was a nightmare, my first ever and I screwed it up, then another for a stop/go after messing the pit entry. So from there just a case of finshing the race. Good experience though.

Congrats to Garret and CJ.
