Shame there weren’t more of us tonight as this was the most interesting race strategy-wise so far:-
Softs-Mediums proved the best, but it wasn’t easy at all – I was panicking big-time at the end.
Softs-Hards would have been piece-of-cake, but the hards grain quite a bit and simply aren’t fast even though they last forever.
Softs-Meds-Meds probably the best time-wise, so long as you don’t get stuck in traffic
Softs-Softs-Softs also OK, but the front left blisters, so you’d get a fast start to each stint and struggle towards the end.
Some also did Softs-Meds-Softs, only problem being that extra stop.
…and with the old system, we’d have all done one stop Mediums.
Enjoyed the race, but really thought I’d mucked it up big time when I span-out early on the mediums – I simply forgot to short change out of turn 3. Luckily Jakki was all over me one lap too late to steal 2nd place, but last two laps felt like the car was going to go on me any time with about 93% grip at the end.
I pretty much had no preperation, as always. I sadly do not have that much time for it, so for me it is mostly a plug&play kind of approach. I like the track a lot so i gave it a go, but after a few laps in the race, with the standard setup (except for the wings), the front left temperatur was so hot, i could barely drive right handers and lost a couple of seconds every lap – and with it the fun to drive. So i retired, would have been last anyway, i guess.
This is in no way criticism towards the car/mod, but my own problem for not being prepared enough. Anyway i will try to participate at the remaining races and will see in the race, if i am at least half competitive.
Fantastic race. Thank you.
Special thanks (Jakinen Sykora) for battle.
Super physics, A considerate opponent, very nice.
I look forward to next race.

Great battles with Jakki
Yeah, nice drive. I didn´t expect Milan so fast so soon :)
