If I had to describe my race at Mugello in just one word, that word would be sloppy. I had a good grid position—starting fourth—but I got a bad start. By the first turn, I had been passed by several cars. By the second or third turn, I had fallen to 14th position.
Throughout the race, but especially in the early laps, I missed my braking points, missed my turn in points, and had contact with lots of other cars. In the first lap, I couldn’t seem to get going without being hit from behind or having another car door me. Some of the contact was my fault, but much of it wasn’t.
In the later laps, I fell into a rhythm. I was able to move up into ninth position, and I set the fastest lap of the race. Things could have been much worse, but I can’t help but be disappointed with my results. Mugello could have been a very good track for me. I feel like I missed a good opportunity, and in the process, I fell further behind in the points.
Through eleven races, the top five in points are:
- Andy Fairnight (151 pts)
- Antoine Gil (131 Pts)
