Kyalami always been a favourite of mine, great race this week really enjoyed it.
made a few tweaks to a set up I already had for the Aston which worked out well, Quali went as expected and was happy with my time, I see Rich Green getting within a tenth or two of my times in practice so I had to pull out the stops in Quali to stay ahead, Nasos and Michael had a better pace than me in the row ahead so my plan was to try keep them in sight as long as possible without wrecking tyres, managed to keep my gap between myself and Rich consistent, then noticed Nasos dive in pits early, so thought that may play out well for me towards end of race, and it did. Split the race in half with my pit strat, Rich stayed out longer so he had a bit more grip in the last few laps so kept me on my toes, Nasos did extremely well on tyres that must have been screaming at him, and he managed to pass me, but only to lose the rear end on turn 4, which gave me the spot back. Pit stop went well and had zero damage on entry, and I managed to maintain the gap between me and Rich when he exited pit after his stop, the only thing I could of worked out better was fuel, maybe a little too much but no big deal really. So yea congratulations podiums and all in all a fantastic Kyalami and snatched a P5.

A very enjoyable race. Trying to keep up with Jay was a challenge early on and then again towards the end. Oversteer out of T3 in the final few laps put me into the barrier, but I managed to make it to the finish line.

Nice race for me too, and first podium in a RD race, so I was happy

But we were few pilots, so maybe it won't be the same in the next race

Only did one litte mistake during the race (6 or 7 seconds lost due to a spin, but no position lost), so I'm pretty satisfied ! I think LFM (only one month in) made me more consistent, as I race more often and more seriously.

But, I was alone for 90% of the race Would have loved some battles... ( @Antonpiou so sad that you spun, we were so close in Quali ! ) But hey, I won't complain, P3 is nice for once !

Always a pleasure to race with you guys, can't wait for the next one ! See ya

"But, I was alone for 90% of the race"

THAT is the current bad situation with low numbers of drivers...
Don't know the reasons for the lack of participation. RD Premium? LFM?

Don't know, because honestly it's really fun to race with people like you, and it's "chill" and challenging at the same time. Maybe the lack of visibility, as some of you pointed recently, I don't know ...
