That was an intense race again, my first win with the rift!
Qualifying went better than expected and I managed to nail that one perfect lap without any traffic. Great job by @ramiboo and shame about manus DC.
The start went rather well but ramiboo put loads of pressure on. Nice move there through traffic and I lost P1. I decided to fill up the car during the stop for wets as I knew this would be my weakest part of the race anyway. After the stops ramiboo was 5s ahead and @Elmo and @Cluck about 10s behind. All good so far I could slowly catch ramiboo and his unplanned stop for fuel gave me the lead again but cluck was closing in rapidly.
Thankfully the rain stopped and since I didn't need as much fuel I could stay ahead. After clucks crashing I just had to nurse it home. Now I can say it, there where puffs of smoke coming from the engine so I tried my best to keep the engine temperatures down.
Lapping was perfect, great race everyone!
