another fantastic event with one stupid mistake that may have cost my second points finish
s01 I really need to get a grip on my nerves, felt dreadful all way round but time was ok, 1 sec off PB, 15th of 24
s02 three small mistakes, the last one ripping off my co-drivers door, fellow complained all the way to the finish, lol. 30secs off PB 16/24 overall 16/24
s03 a long slog in ..., one little off, gravel tires made for some funny behaviour in breakzones, 23 secs off PB 13/24 overall 15/24
s04 really nice rhythm, did a stupid 180 degree with 0.4 km to go, still new PB by 10secs
, 17/24 overall 13/24
s05 disaster at 1.5 km, misjudged a slide just a little, hit tree, gear stuck in 4th, CFH, gladly downhill from there so I could continue, finished 21/24 50secs off PB overall 15/24
s06 gear stuck in 1st, did half the stage to remind myself of the layout, then retired, 4mins lost
21/24 overall
s07 very difficult to trust in what you are doing after the mishap you've just been through, still quite a good run, 7 secs off PB, 17/24 overall 20/24, 1 min down to my teammate Roman, decided to try and catch him on the final leg.
s08 with not much to lose went in quite aggressively and lucked out two times, made up 50 secs on Roman, 18/24 overall 20/24
s09 good overall pace, one 180 degree didn't cost much time, first stage I enjoyed after my mishap 15/24 overall 19/24
s10 still hunting Roman letting it all loose for once and did a great run, 12 secs faster than old PB! 15/24 overall 19/24
s11 always difficult to face a stage you f... up last time, just meant to cruise ended up equalizing my PB, lol. 16/24 overall 19/24, 25 secs down to Roman
s12 never liked this stage at all, just surviving, missed PB by 5secs, 17/24 overall 19/24 Roman at 40 secs, decided to give up the chase and wrap up the event safely.
s13 nice rhythmic run, at first split only 0.4 away from Roman, very careful jump because one stage still to follow, finished 4 secs off PB, luckily for me there were many retirements so I found myself in 13/24 and 16/24 overall
s14 nice final run, new PB by 1 secs and only 0.14 between fellow BlueFlagger Krister and myself. 11/24 my best result of the night
finished EU3 in 15 of 24 (with 4 players dropping out, so 20 still running)
another great mix of stages, loved the weather analysis one had to do before the event, well done all admins and thx for putting this up, cannot wait for results (my guess: 14th in class, 21st overall)
