I was a bit annoyed with myself yesterday because I didn't perform to the level I can, but that's just the athlete in me coming through! For the last 20 minutes I relaxed a lot and enjoyed one of the best tracks in the world. Even had two passes around the outside at the Carousel which were a lot of fun.
Great performances by the top two, really good pace and consistency.
Participation is the big issue and I've got some theories. I think you could race any car at Spa and Monza and get a big grid because of the circuits. Mugello and Road America are less well known so a few people will drop out.
I also think people are going out more and spending a bit less time at their computers just because we can now. Lockdown in most places has been eased and I think people are taking advantage of it.
I think hybrid cars will always be smaller grids because more understanding is needed to be even within 4 seconds of 1st place. I love the added complexity but I am sure some others are confused by it.
My last theory is that people assume it is a paid mod because it is by RSS.
If each of those reasons are responsible for 2 people not racing we are down to a small grid.
