Came to Albert Park this sunday afternoon with an unbalanced car, had had really big problems finding myself a suitable setup, 3 weeks of practice, but still didn't managed to find it.
Anyways, qualified, had no thoughts of any topspot so I took it easy and tried to try out some new tirepreasures, wing settings etc. Found a few settings that I found better, so I took them and made my qualy run which lasted for a 15th posistion on the grid.
I decided to stick with the new setup in race. Start was terrible, went down a few spots but managed to pick that up again. Then first SC came out, got a stop & go, which also made me stressed cause I had low fuel and I needed to go around once more to pit. But the tank lasted, then the rest of the race was pretty good, no errors, just smooth and controled, no pushing etc. Had a little fight with Jose which was nice, clean and good. Finally ended up as third, first podium for me. Really happy!
Hopefully I can reply to this in Malaysia which is my favourite track!
Happy practice! See you guys next race!

Just to let everyone know. I am thinking of turning off chat mode for race, and only allowing me to chat.
Quite ridiculous the fights. I don't care if your encouraging your drivers, but as long as you don't complain and start a fight with a live driver, that really bothers me.
The race was fine and good. We cannot be restart races all year long cause incidents like a big crash happens during mid race, or else we'll be having 10 restarts throughout the year, which cost money for server and server use.

ohil.. i think sc thing has to be fixed.. well i dont know.. i talk about that stop and go penalty i received with out reasonn good race for me.. My fellow driver Jose. this was a second race in a row that you hit me, i won`t complain now but i shurely hope you`ll be more of a gentleman in the future. To me its sooo clear that you are able to brake much later, since you have abs on but you should keep that in mind while driving behind others. Good luck to Malaysia!
