Well... that was an eventful race.
I joined the 5PM (UK) slot, and i was door 15, and i qualified P12 and i finished P6 with a damaged car.
I used the Mazda for this race, and the race never got off to a good start because at T12 on lap 1, someone pushed the rear of my car and spun me around, so now i was in last, but thankfully the only BRZ in the race had a spin at the final corner, so that was 1 place gained. I slowly caught up to the back of the pack after a couple laps and thankfully they made mistakes and forced each other to make errors, so i gained a couple of more places, plus someone in front pitted, so was now in P9.
I dived into the pits at the end of lap 12, and i exited behind a fellow Mazda driver. We slowly caught up to the back of a pack of NSX's and on lap 19, we were all together, and i remember thinking to my self that i would probably get unlucky and get damage somehow. Lo and behold, i get wiped out at the end of lap 19 just after the final corner. 2 NSX's collided and that caused 1 of the NSX's to go into the Mazda in front of me, and that caused the Mazda to spear into me and 4 of us were in the barrier. I looked back at the replay and the reason this accident happened was because one of the NSX's brake checked the other.
Now i had suspension damage on both of my front wheels and i had front aero damage. Somehow i gained 2 or 3 positions from that crash so i decided to carry on. I gained another position a couple of seconds later because another NSX clipped the kerb at T1 and spun out. Thankfully i had a big enough gap behind me which allowed me to hold on to P6. Annoyingly there was a potential P4 or maybe even P3 on for me if i had avoided that pile up.
