Spyker Endurance : this post is purely to give respect where its due, to a driver with the gamer tag 'dermichel', if any of you guys know this person, tell him i doff my cap to him.
Pole position from the grid, and i led the race for 8 laps........
with this guy hanging off my bumper
after being EXTREMELY patient, having the edge because he sat in my draft for 8 laps without ramming me once ! kept setting up his overtake but could'nt quite make it work out, continued to fall back in line and bide his time, before finally passing me on lap 8.....
he brake's early to make sure he didnt over run the corner, unfortunately for him, ive become quite good in this car
manual gears mean i can keep it in the 'sweet spot' now
and retake the lead immediately on the outside, he held the lead for seconds only
still he didnt ram me, still he stays patient, still he drive's clean
we start lap 10
nothing more than a glancing graze.....
but its enough to cost him his race
gutted for the guy after all that work
If any of you have '
dermichel' on your drivers list, tell him i thoroughly enjoyed the duel, i respect his race ethics, and he shouldnt have quit the race in frustration, he earned every single point he would of got.
Respect Sir
