Barcelona Mini

Not bad qual lap to be p1. Put in 15 laps fuel, got a good start and some good clean laps. By lap 8 I was doing some calculations in my head and realised that fuel was going to be very tight. Eased off as much as possible while trying not to let ace close up. Last lap, engine lost power, coasted into pits, fuelled and got over the line. Better too much as too litte ! Got the lap record with a poor setup so looking for a 2:06 next time!

Only 10 starters too.....

I have to agree, I wonder why such a lower number of starters than normal.

I too was very tight on fuel, I'm normally good at calculating it, but 0.16 as i crossed the line, car was stuttering from turn9. Nice race with David Slute after his spin at the chicane, but just wasn't quite fast enough, especially when trying to save fuel.

Nice race though and pretty happy with such a competitive result, very unlucky Iain, but I managed to get a 3rd as a result.

10 starters but still a good race for me.

I had the worst start ever but now I'm not complaining since that only contributed to a fun evening and not racing alone in the middle of the field.

I was stuck for some time behind Vorih who was very determined to hold his position. I out braked him at La Caixa and started gaining Marciniak and Blakeley. Marciniak made a big mistake before the last chicane, lost the rear and ended up in the wall. Left Blakeley and myself to battle it out.

Blakeley defended very good and made sure I didn't out brake him. Every time I was able to catch him but couldn't get in front. To bad his Windows failed him or we would probably be exchanging positions until the finish.

Good race, but I'm too slow in some corners, my driving technique request an upgrade to a higher level.
At the start of the race was not so bad, but after accumulating backlog and two spins. Dubravko had a little trouble with me (;-), but when he found space, disappeared on the horizon. I'm just engulf his exhaust.
Problem with calculation of fuel ended with hiccups engine crossed the finish line with a 0.04 fuel in the tank.
Who dares, wins.
Congratulations for podium.
Sorry for my english.

After watching the reply, I could have rolled over the line without pitting.... :-)

That's what I managed to do Iain :) just about.

Quali went well as I set the my fastest lap I'd ever managed around the track to start 6th

Start got an ok start and got 5th place during the first lap. Then I managed to keep up for Bobby West for a few laps until I made a few silly mistakes and I dropped back quite a bit. Towards the end of the race worn tyres and a few more silly mistakes I dropped in to the clutches of Dubravko Sparovec, we had a great battle and I was managing to just about stay ahead, then coming out of turn 4 when my game minimised race07 and when I got it back up Sparovec was long gone. Then on the final lap in turn 3 I think it was I realised I only had 0.5 of fuel left, even though I put 16 laps worth of fuel in the car at the start, so I went in to crazy fuel saving even having to coast down the back straight so I'd have enough fuel to get back up the hill at the end of the lap, which I just about managed and I ended up coasting the final four corners and the pit straight to get to the line. Thankfully I got across the line and finished the race albeit down in 9th place.
