Back to normality at Silverstone it seems. Me sh*t.

Decided to go long on the H, figuring I'd be in with a shout of Fastest Lap at the end on S if nothing else.

Managed to not get damaged after that melee at the start... but being on the H I obviously had not the best pace to go with my already pretty poor native pace, but I tried to hang on and kept it clean.

Cars in front pitted, putting me up the order... then @DemoN F1 came out behind me on much fresher tyres. Obviously I wasn't holding him up as best I could, so I let him through as soon as he caught up and then, playing the wingman, cut off the cars behind him with some hard (but fair) racing to give him the best chance of getting away with no pressure.

Actually worked and I kept both @alex1994128 and @BigC_015 behind for a few laps... but I could only keep it up for so long before succumbing.

Eventually pitted on L20, tried for Fastest Lap but couldn't even do that. Missed out by about 0.130...

Overall, crap race pace wise, but some fun little battles throughout made it worthwhile.

• (7:16 onwards) I place an overtake on king_rockhammer after turn 3/4 and arrive to the corner the earliest as can be seen from the red arrow. I was ahead of him going into the corner so it was my turn. I am on new softs against him on used mediums, therefore I expect to have a much higher cornering speed. He could have seen that happen too and I think he should have given up on the corner as he was in a spot which was eventually always gonna disappear due to his older tyres. He could have never made it stick on the inside. He taps my rear, sending me off the track and continues his way. After that my rear tyres are overheated and I struggle to keep the car on he track for most of the lap, losing much time.

My POV:

In my view I haven't done anything wrong, just because he was ahead going into the turn, it doesn't make it his corner, especially since I'm alongside for the entire time. It's not as if I overshot the corner either, I was in complete control the entire time.

All he does is close me down to a point where he just turns in as if I'm not there. Had he given me space, he would've passed me and we both carry on with our races. Just because he had new tyres, doesn't me I should let him through, nor does it give him the right to turn across me. In my view the contact was self inflicted.

@Hasnain282

I will have to activate my "reserve" status in RD...new Uni schedule doesn't allow me to be here every week racing on Tuesdays so I will have to go from full time to reserve here.

 

[Theo Faull]

I'd also like to go back to being a reserve. As soon as I was made permanent, my Tuesday evenings became busy with other things.

 

[Hasnain282]

The stewards have decided to take No Further Action for this incident.
Shane was far enough alongside to warrant space to be given and he couldn't have been much more to the left hand side of the track. Martijn was unlucky that the contact caused him to spin but it could've been avoided by him had he left a little more room on the inside.

@Martijn Boontje @King_Rockhammer

 

[Don_cecchi]

once again I have to work longer..

 

[Mitchell Haverlag]

I also would like to demote to a reserve. I simply do not have the time at this moment to commit to this league every week.

 

[ParisBurrell]

If all these people are becoming reserves can I switch to another car? The Haas is awful

 

[Hasnain282]

No. Once you're in a team you have to stick with them for the season

 

[Hasnain282]

@F4H_Jake, @Nexus1011, @Theo Faull and @Mitchell Haverlag have all dropped down to reserve. @Nicolas Giraud will take Jake's seat in the Racing Point

 

[HRacingGreen]

Absent tonight. I won't be home in time to make the race.

 

[Dawidos]

Nic tried to get back into action a bit too soon when other cars where driving past after he spun, I didn't know which way he was gonna go so it was random but he still should've waited for others to drive past like I did later in the clip

Q: 11th

Opted to go all or nothing. Pole or fresh tyres. Was on for pole but got it invalidated in pitiful fashion. Wasn't too disappointed but definitely would also prefer to be at the front.

R: 3rd

I made a clean start and made positions as they came to me. I lost a fair bit of time with Jerry and James tripping over each other and being pretty slow. That cost me DRS until the end of everyone's stint and probably is what cost me a shot at the win in the end.

The second stint was rather dull. Jamie and Sjors were two very easy positions and then my tyres shattered the bed so I couldn't catch Alex in time.

3rd was probably a fair result, nothing spectacular but a well managed race. Definitely do need to start converting these podiums into wins though.
