An expected tough race for me. Despite my best effort to keep the car on track and to bring it home, it always ends with something on the opposite. Just wanted to apologise to
@Sandite5 for that undesired crash at the last chicane that massively damaged both our end.
Onto the race weekend recap:
Qualifying was pretty good, enjoyed a decent feel of the car around the track. Though I got accidentally shunted to the gravel on my 2nd hot lap, but nevertheless recovered and got going for my 3rd. Was gunning down my last flyer until I went over the limit and hit the wall, that spells the end of my flyer.
Race was not something that I wanted, kept it consistent at the start and first half was really smooth. Until my first pit stop made it worse, went to softs and exited the pit lane as per standard procedure. On my way out, the throttle was stuck at full upon releasing that "auto crash" feature and it spun my car right at the pit exit and into the wall. Another wasted lap driving a completely broken car around to get another repairs and supersofts.
Up came with 2 more pit stops lap after lap because I had either hit the wall or stumped a toe into the marshals. By then it was near the breaking limit of either finishing the race or just to retire. Just kept my cool and went on while collecting damage on my front left, which then I cancelled out the broken suspension by hitting my right side. It was starting to get better again until the penultimate corner at the last lap, where I moved slightly outside to allow the blue flag pass and the car swayed off out of the high speed and into the grass, tried to turn into the gravel to safely slow down but the car went the other way and ended up collecting another overlapper.
I'm just disgusted at my performance in the 2nd half, and wished I could just set fire on the damn car and walk away. But I guess it's my own fault for not keeping it in control and went hot-headed as usual to push for faster lap times.
