Good race everybody, I hope you all had fun! It looks like there was a lot of typical Monaco messiness, but that being said it seemed to be a very fair and clean race, as far as I saw, although unfortunately Dan wrecked his car halfway through, and something must have happened to Christian near the end of the race to put him out.
I'm very relieved... qualy was nervous, but once again I found times better than in GP mode, and I managed pole. For once I had no trouble off the start of the race, I got around the first corner clean in the lead! And then tipsy-toed around the next few corners. I really didn't want to stuff it into the barriers right away. All seemed well, until a few laps in I spun suddenly and nosed into the wall of Rascasse. Just had enough time to get on track before Scott descended on my gearbox. Kept him behind until the hairpin, where I made another unusual mistake, just oversteering into the wall, causing the Renault to run into me, but I held the line into the next corner. I hope it didn't damage his wing, because it wasn't his fault; he seemed to fall back after that.
The rest of the race was trying not to make any serious mistakes. I passed a few cars, and I have to complement each of them for doing an excellent job of moving off the racing line. Great clean driving, guys!
I did not have a perfect race myself... I touched the barriers many times unnecessarily, but as far as I recall the only other mistake that really cost me was when I knocked my wing off and had to take a second pit stop to fix it. It had started to rain a little, so I thought to put options back on (I was on primes) in anticipation of having to pit again soon for inters. But the team didn't listen, they chose to put primes on, and it turned out to be the right choice because the rain stopped. Good strategy, team!
Then I spun out on the final straight swerving side to side in celebration... I'd rather forget about that.
Do you really need complete race footage? Can I edit out the last lap?
