Well that was a ducking awful end to the season........

I cannot apologise enough Stu, I really cant, I totally misread the situation and didn't even have time to avoid you, cost myself a decent podium and probably a win for you, I should have been more patient, I genuinely felt empty and stupid straight away.:banghead:

Race 2: Cant mention some things, as per usual felt like I was doing all I could but reckon the 458 has been the worst race 2 car this season, although Toffe is probably the only person who might agree :O

Accidents happen Nel. Not watched replay but I know I was in middle of track and not on the right so I could defend corner as you could brake so much later into the corner. So not sure if I braked slightly early or not which may have caught you out, I actually thought you were along side me. I'm reaching out to give you a slap on the back of the head just now. (slap)

Agree! First races have been okay, but 2nd races are really hard in the 458.

Overall I started this season on a big high (wins yay!) and ended on an equally big low. One of the reasons for that is that I haven't had time to practice much in recent weeks, this thing being the culprit:

Looking forward to holidays now! :)
 
Fantastic race 2 for me, got the lead from the start and pulled around 1.5 seconds clear then made a mistake pushing to try and get a lead before some of the quicker drivers came through, settled for 3rd most of the early race and got into a rhythm before I started to catch Nel as his tires went off. Managed to overtake him before he pitted.

Pitted on lap 12 and rejoined in 5th after being jumped by Joe, Carb and Nel due to some poor lap times, was around 10 seconds behind the leader when I came out of the pits and was matching his times, then towards the end caught and passed Nel after going close around the first sector of the lap then hung on for a 4th place finish, but probably will get a time penalty as I was aggressive on the chicanes
