After Qualifying 2nd for both races by only 0.1 of a second to Gabriel Dias i would always be on the back foot, so the start to the race would be the most important part.

After warming my tyres up on the outlap as hard as i could i managed to get a great start as needed and overtook Gabriel Dias by the first corner getting into 1st place. I kept pushing hard but struggled with the balance of the car in the begging part of the race which enabled Gabriel to get up to the back of me. After 5 laps into the race Gabriel made a move and made it stick which put me back to 2nd place. I continued to push and managed to post the quickest lap time for the national class and got up to the back of Gabriel but by that time the chequered flag came out. The race was hard but made more determined for the next race.

After finishing 2nd in the first race I wanted a 1st place to finish the weekend of well, starting 2nd place again put me at a disadvantage but i know i had good starts of the line so i thought i could get into the lead and stay in the lead after some positive changes made to the car after race 1.

After again warming the tyres up to get them at a good temperature i managed to get into first place from another clean get away. I had some traffic from other International cars that did not help me in trying to produce more of a lead from Gabriel. After many laps into the race Hywel Lloyd made a move not for position as he is in the International class and succeeded, but due to this surprise move i got pushed out wide and lost some valuable time to Gabriel. After leading the whole race from first lap Gabriel caught up to me and put a good clean move on me into the chicane complex after the Copse corner, we ended up battling for the next four corners side by side but in the end Gabriel had the inside line and got past me. I was pretty disappointed but very happy that i have a very good challenger for the title which will only push me on further and help myself get to that next level.

Good race weekend which i enjoyed massively but the outcome wasn’t as i would of hoped. I am now more determined than ever to win and succeed so off to Rockingham next to defend my lead.
