rF2 S397 GT3 @ Magny-Cours - Fri 21 Oct 2022

rFactor 2 Racing Club event
It was fun driving in the rain, that was actually my first time. I knew when the rain hit that I could go another lap before the crossover point to rain tires started, so I did, only to have to battle Hartmut on that lap which cost me some seconds. Pit entry wasnt great either, loosing a few more seconds. The stop was great though and since Hartmut made an error in the pits, I came back out in 2nd. Slowly chipped away at Deans lead from 7,5 secs to 3,5 until he pitted again, presumably for dry tires. I knew that was the wrong stradegy so I was confused why he did it as the track took far longer to dry up in the race as Ole mentioned in practice. So, I was basically handed the win, not really that much deserved as there was faster cars out there, but I'll take it :)
