Well, I lasted a few laps. Not a bad start, and changed positions with Mike Bishop for a while. Had Ken Hunter right on my tail. I lost the back end going into on turn 1 one lap 3...4?. I think I might have been able to save it, but it would have meant getting in Ken's way, so I let it roll through instead. I ended up on the grassy infield with no idea which direction I was pointing. I tried to get back on track, but realised I hadn't found the correct bit, and quickly exited before I would get into anyone else's way.
That sucks, but I still enjoyed the 'occasion', and I think I'll do better at Interlagos.
A small personal victory was setting my fastest ever lap around Cordoba during the warm up session. It's only a 1.13.953, but for me that was great!
By the way, at the back of the grid you have no idea whatsoever when the lights go out. No sound, no lights to see, nothing.
