Well, unfortunately my race report wont be very long tonight. The build up to the race was great, with plenty of practice on Friday and Saturday. I was happy with my pace, getting into the low 17's by the end of our final session. Race night came, and the worry of troubled internet connections soon went away, as the room seemed stable, and everyone could see each other. Quali went well, and I was happy with my grid position. The lights went out, and we were off. A few at the back were caught out at La source, but most got through. I had lost a position, and carried on through Eau Rouge. Great first lap, and at the start of lap 2, I was surprised to see Theewar had spun at La Source. The next few laps were spent settling into a composed drive, and getting a bit of consistency. Lap 4, and I had Theewar, Cobani and Goodwolf closing in behind. Knowing Warrens times were going to be quicker than mine, I let him pass me safely, in the hope that I could tag onto his slip. I managed to for a few turns, but then with Cobani breathing down my neck, DISASTER struck. Coming through Blancimont at very high speed, my horn button flashed wildly. There was no feeling in my wheel, and I carried on in a straight line, straight into the armco. My car bounced back, facing the track. I tried to get back on, but my car would not steer. All I had was accelerator and brake. My DFGT had packed in. With no steering I was forced to retire from the race.
Due to my retirement, my replay will not play any further than lap 4, so I could not take the fastest lap times. I have therefore entered the times I could remember for the front runners.
Heres the results guys.
SoKa ran a blinding race, with some very impressive lap times, to take the win, but it was Capt D who extended his championship lead to 18 points. The fight for the next places in the championship are very close, with Will, Warren, Soka and Goodwolf in the hunt for top 3 positions going into the final race.
Now comes the twist. To take The Sunday Cup IV down to the wire for the last race, and pile on the pressure to finish as High as possible, the final race will be............................................
Finally gentlemen, I would like to thank you all for participating in Sunday Cup. Lets make this last race a blinder. 👍👍👍

DOUBLE POINTS!
This means that Captain D cant be crowned as the champion until after the final at Silverstone, and with 32 points up for grabs, anything is possible.
