Well, it looked like I'd really messed things up in the super-pole as I lost it as the last corner, going into the sand and starting at the back. But the Gods smiled upon me and decided to throw down some rain for the race.
So I put my wet boots on and fired off the start line. By lap 2 I was in 5th place in the group fighting for 3rd spot so the wet tyre choice was good for the start. Some close fighting with Mark, Mtommi until I managed to break away and established a 3 second gap back to the pack. It stayed at pretty much the same gap until late into the race.
Around lap 40 and the crew were on the radio telling me that my tyres were shredding badly (or something like that) but I didn't need them to tell me as I was slipping and sliding sideways by this time and Dan was gaining on me quickly. With a few lap to go, Dan got past and there was little I could about it. Great race again Dan, your quickly becoming my nemesis Came home 4th so really can't complain considering the dreadful qualifier.
