This was not a good race for us, qualifying 12th on the grid after changing karts, and only being able to maintain this over the first ten minutes. The standard of driving by some teams was abysmal, and every time I made up a position or two by fair and clean passes, I was duly bumped and barged back down again by unfair and aggressive driving. It was possibly the worst race for poor driving that I have ever driven in, and I made my thoughts known to the management afterwards.
Back to the race and I managed to get into the top ten and was glad to be out of the kart and handing over to Richard at the half way mark.
The kart had a new tyre on the right front and this was not yet scrubbed-in, it was causing massive understeer in left hand corners, and this was where we were losing our time.
Richard drove well, but was not able to improve on our position, bringing the kart home in 10th.
Another poor result for us, scoring only 131 points leaves us with little hope of repeating or improving on last year’s 4th place finish in the championship.
