Yeah that is pretty much what this race came up to. Andrew’s pace was incredibly awesome, so when I saw him caming back from the back as a blast I just let him pass to let him recover as much lost terrain as possible; he was possibly the fastest on track, sad because he could had win this.
Fuel mistake on my side made me pit too early, thus worrying me about tyre wear towards the end of the race. Twice or 3 times too wide and the clip at the (already doomed) Britten’s chicane didn’t help; after those mistakes I find myself struggling to keep focus and motivation.
From there had to defend my position from John Souter for an eternity (don’t recall how many laps). That was quite demanding, trying to not mess it up as my tyres had several more laps than John’s, and he was pushing the whole time.
Not that bad result given the circumstances and being my first time on a competition in AMS.
On Andrew’s side I’m sure results will come. He’s truly a winner.
