Haha Michael your championship target is me? I feel honoured and slightly worried
A more in depth analysis of this weeks race for me...
Due to various real life situations I only had 1 proper practice session for any series this week and that was taken up by joining Pro Sim T&T on his livestream for the Simpit series. Coming into this round I managed to sneak in a quick 15 minutes before the race to get comfortable with the car on this track. Qualifying was then sacrificed so that I could get some basic setup work done (pressures, wings, brakes). Started near the back of the grid and decided to just mitigate the inexperience/lack of decent setup by having a clean race, staying passive while being overtaken and not pushing too hard to gain positions. Worked pretty well and when I saw that I was catching Michal by about a second a lap I knew I had found some kind of groove and started to push a bit harder, then I spun, started catching him again then had another mini spin and decided to just take it easy for the last few laps so that I could hold on to 10th, which is better than I expected after coming into the race so green.
Looking forward to the final, there's no stopping Max now so it's just a case of getting a good enough position to hold Michael off so I can claim that silver trophy
