I got a bad start in race one and got stuck for a couple of laps before working my way up. By then I was about four seconds off the group in front and I felt like I was holding my own. I had a few little issues but then, with three laps to go, the ECU seemed to just cut out. I pulled off the track, re-booted it using the kill switch and managed to get going again to finish 10th. In race two my start was better but I had a bit of a yo-yo race. I was right on the group that went up to fifth but had another issue that led to a crash. We need to assess what that problem was but I think we’ve made some progress this weekend and I was able to do some better lap times in the races but there’s more work to do before Portimao.
