Well, if you can manage your fuel you may be able to do the whole race without a stop.

I see where this is going Chris... Are you going run out on the last lap in sight of the finish line?

 

[Aaron Wilson]

Have to sign out sorry, have dinner plans. Enjoy the race.

Hey, that was a hell of a race . I pushed the whole race pretty hard, so i'm sorry about the last lap where i touched Micheal. The race was so intense, from beginning i gave all to stay at Michael. I had all to get in the corners. On straight Michael was incredible fast. That even on the long straight "Dottinger Höhe" i could nothing do then follow without any chance to overtake.
At pit i lost a bit as i first had to figure out how it worked, and i just filled up full fuel . Not even sure if they changed tyres. Anyhow, i drove full attack and at last lap we was together again. Even got the chance and overtook Michael first hairpin. And sure i knew i need a gap, unfortunately i overdrove the car a bit, result that Michael passed back. That was the key for him as on Nord pretty hard to overtake. So 2nd at finish . Thanks for the great event.

Well done to Young, Löffer, Levi and Stacey. You guys were way to fast for me to keep up with. Pretty boring race for me unfortunately, I may as well have done 10 practice laps on my own. But I'm happy to have made the race distance without any mistakes

Thanks for the event Chris. Catch you guys tomorrow night.

Cheers lads, that was actually far more enjoyable than I expected.
Great battle Sun! Amazing to think that after nearly 90 minutes of driving, it came down to one tenth of a second for the final podium placing.

Awesome strategy as well with those pitstops, I was amazed I was able to recover somewhere in the range of 35-40 seconds on them.

Great stuff boys!

 

[Sun Levi]

Awesome race! Different cars/strategies always makes the race more interesting, had a great battle with @Chris Stacey ! Congrats @Michael Young & @Andreas Löffler
