Starting in Brands Hatch for the second time this season.
Jazz drifting the MINI… yet again! This time in a tandem drift.
After the first few laps, Jazz had a rather quiet race…
… until John Souter and him found themselves in a race long battle for positions.
Later on Steve Le Gallez decided to join the fray.
Near the end of the race, Jazz made contact with the barrier and bent his suspension.
Great report as usual Christian !
Finally, a nice race. Despite some usual mistakes I must work on, and the loooong pitstop (14 secs for changing both rear tyres) I made, even despite the crash at Hawthorns Bend (which again was my fault as I downshifted badly) I had lots of fun racing with Souter. John pace was near mine, and once engaged battles are fair and clean, this time he made things overall better so he really deserved that precious P11 we’d been fighting for almost the whole race.
As I loss time on my pitstop Le Gallez exited his pitstop 3 secs ahead of me, and Souter lost time somewhere else, as we found again together, this time the 3 of us. I really appreciate these 2 drivers, they are very fair and clean, and even better persons. So that was fun and intense !
Sadly I damaged the car when I crashed and took me around 2 laps to relearn the car and retake some motivation as at first I thought race was over for me.
Last 13 laps with direction off center where a pain. The gap with the driver behind was closing pretty fast, and those final laps where quite of demanding. Mainly goal was to bring the car back home no matter what, by then I was sure I was going to get some points if I didn’t make another mistake, and secondly to try at all costs to retain my position.
Well, Yapci’s is not as clean as Souter or Le Gallez, and with the car in that condition I couldn’t hold him, so after 13 laps of chasing he managed to overtake me in the last one. Congrats to him.
All in all quite happy, specially for the scored points, as our main driver Andrew sadly couldn’t continue the champ, those points were much needed for the team.
Thanks again Chrisitan for the report, and hope people enjoyed the race, unexpectedly for me was a very nice and fun one.
See you all at Oulton 😉
