Welcome to my twenty-fourth and birthday weekly blog !!
Sprint Cup
The Sim Grid Sprint Cup Round 3 at Bathurst, was on Thursday 05-08-2021. We knew it’s going to be a difficult race..
I love the mountains, but this mountain is a tough one!
I drove together with Alethea Boucq, Mark made a very good setup for us, which will be good in the rain or dry. Luckily it was dry! My practice before the race didn’t go well, I crashed a lot and was a little bit worried!
I was saying to myself and also to Alethea, a bad practice means a good race! It turns out, that was true!! Alethea started at P27, had a little incident in the second lap but drove very well an consistent with damage. I drove the second stint, for me it was all about to keep it out of the wall and drive safe.
Luckily I didn’t hit the wall and we ended up P16. Not a bad result and we have some points for the championship! The next race is on 26-08-2021 at Nürburgring.
Wavy World Tour
Theamusante Wavy World Tour Round 4, was Friday 06-08-2021,2 hours at Silverstone. I drove together with Sophie Aeronwen. We drove a solid race, one of our concurrent finished behind us! We ended up P5 in the race and didn’t had the pace to get a better result. Currently, we are fourth in the championship! Hopefully, we can keep up the good results, Friday the 03-09-2021 is the next race 90 minutes at Monza. Bernadette (Bentley) will be good and I’m really looking forward to it!
Pro League Racing
Round 5 of the World Tour, was 1 hour at Silverstone.
I had a really good setup. Practiced a lot to get some better and stable lap times. With Motec I could compare my laps and learn from it! I wasn’t feeling good but wanted to start the race because I was standing fourth in the championship, also in the pro class. Which was already a lot better, than I expected and I will give it all to get in the top 3 in the standings.
Unfortunately, I had one mistake, I almost lost Bernadette (Bentley) and if I didn’t go straight at Maggots and Becketts, then I crashed and took another driver with me. I slowed down, but I still got I drive through. I was on P4, after the drive through I was at P19. We had a mandatory pitstop with tire change, I did that after my DT and was at P29.
Luckily I had some space and could drive some quick laps. I ended at P11, not happy with it but it could be a lot worse. I’m now at P6 in the overall standings and P5 in the pro class standings. Next Monday 16-08-2021, is round 6 90 minutes at Spa Francorchamps. It’s going to be very wet and hopefully, I can sail to a good result!
