I am enjoying no assist driving.
Last night I went out got last for Q and got blocked which is normal, I was on H this was going to be my test race so take it easy forgot about Q. I got pole



ok now I finish

and start to

I am at the start and I always get hit, and it happen maybe it my fault my be being nervous I don't push like I should also it's coldish tyres.
I start my race on M looking to do a 1stop onto H.
Turn 1 I get hit by P2(finishes P2), I go a bit wide & loose time but still in P1, turn two I am on the outside which is not a good place to be. By turn three just gone under the bridge P3(finishes P14) runs me on to the grass no reason there was plenty space then on the same corner it takes out P4, P3 is now P2 with no penalties & very happy ,I guess that's the way you keep you space

.
I drop to P8 not even completed a lap yet, as I am about to get off the gravel about to get onto the grass I get hit by a car going off after hitting two cars this car also keep its place P10

also no penalties.
I am now P16 and14 laps to go, I get my head down & race.
I decided if the car Infront is slower than me, I'll give them a few corners to let me pass them clean, if each time the car brakes to early or push me wide when I am about to pass I will continue pushing through.
Lap4 I catch up the the car that pushed me onto the grass on the 1st lap & the car that hit me back onto the grass.
Both cars as I passed them push & hit me trying to take me out with no luck, coming to the end of lap 4 near drive bomb strip, one car dive bombed me I had enough time to give it space & let it through, on the chicane the second car dive bombed me but this time I was pushed wide & i got a .5 sec penalty.
The last chicane before the start stop line I took my normal braking & decided I would not brake early & I hit the car that dive bombed me & took me out this was not my plan. The car took the corner wrong & tried to stop me passing which didn't work, We both reset.
I carried on passed both cars again & continued passing cars until reached lap10 time to pit my tyres where still perfect but it was time H
I was P8 thinking about how I could get to P4/5 I could see P6 and 7 Infront, P6 I let pass earlier after because it had pitted lap before and I know it was burning it tyres trying to catch me.
One car made a pitted on lap13 I was not close to P6 & thought I let it pass with no problems, so I know I can pass this car easy last lap I am no P6 pushing to get P5.
I do love driving in cockpit view.
I love the high tyre wear & fuel wear it show who can race and think and who just what's to go round & round with no strategy.
I hope we get night racing, more strategy, higher penalties for not following the rules 20 sec for not following the rules is not enough when the driver rams off the person who can beat them.
