Second Qualifying.
Again true to form it was a last minute switch with the weather, from a nice dry track to a slippery cold wet track. That also meant a last minute call on the tyres and some very slight changes to the setup of the car. Unfortunately it wasn't possible to go straight to the wet setup, which meant those that had would be faster.
The first few minutes when the track was still marginally dry, was the moment that the fastest laps were achieved. That is the exact time that the team mechanics were still applying setup changes. Its a valuable lesson to learn.
Not only that , but the data logging computer fitted to the car also decided that it didn't want to work, which meant I was unable to see lap times and more importantly crucial information about the engine. It also meant that after qualifying there was no data for me to analyse to find where I need to be faster, or smoother. Typical.
The net result was 10th on the grid for the second race, which was a huge disappointment I have to say.
