BLACK UPSETS THE TIM SHOW
More rain filled clouds greeted the series in Sepang, and much like Melbourne, those same clouds brought forth a ton of action. Throughout the race, it was Turn 14 doing the most damage, along with Turn 1 and 4. But for all of the carnage, it was at turns 1 and 4, and 15, that we saw some fantastic racing too, with plenty of passing.
For a while it seemed that Tim Engberink had it done, easily leading with a dozen laps to go after starting in 17th. But when he made his second stop, Speedy Racing clearly didn't foresee that they would be the only ones to do so. But the flying Dutchman wouldn't be denied the chance, moving through the top 5 until reaching the long going battle between Jack Hunsley's DTK and Andy Black's Viper. Viper clearly told Black to go for it, the Dane sneaking past Hunsley just as Engberink was catching them. But although Hunsley held up Engberink, once past, again he quickly made up the distance to Black. With a lap to go Black made an error, seemingly handing Engberink victory with little effort. But Turn 14 had one last trick to play, snaring Engberink into the gravel trap, giving Black back the silver platter which the victory was presented. DTK scored well, whereas Australian GP heavyweights 2KF1 and Apex endured horrid days, with only Harvey for Apex scoring, and both teams losing a car.
Next round: Brazilian Grand Prix
Press Conference
@needforspeedgamer Did you think you'd lost the race after Engberink got by with a lap remaining?
@Twigster151 You struggled for race pace in Melbourne, but are you now in the groove with your car?
@Doker For someone who is looking to replace themselves, you're doing very well. Should this be a sign for someone to join your team?
All teams are welcome to share their thoughts.
