Let's hope the team boost goes to help Matteo to attack for the win, very good qualifying, mate.
Carlos struggled a bit more than I hoped for, but good points are still possible. Go for it, mate!

Welcome one and all to a sunny Kyalami, where we are about to begin today's GPGSL Round 7, South African GP.
Marcus De Bruyker sits on the pole position, with Matteo Scala alongside him on the front row. After the earlier Feature Race, it was clearly evident that even from the 3rd row, it was possible to lead into the first corner, with the long downhill run from the start.
So, let's go trackside. All 22 cars are on the grid, ready to go...
A clear track ahead of the pole sitter....
And they are GO! Soutsen from 3rd on the grid, splits the middle of a pack, with 2nd place qualifier Scala back in 4th - a great start bu Silvestre to be in 4rd....
De Bruyker leads, with Soutsen, Silvestre, Pedersen and then Scala in behind...
Out of the slow Leeukop Bend for the first time, and through the kink, it is single file all the way back...
Scala got by Pedersen on the run through Turn 1, otherwise known as Crowthorne Corner...
7th on back, it is Joseph Gilson leading a train of cars....
The long run down to the first turn, and Connor Steer appears to have the speed to go by the SCR of Gilson. Lots of side by side action further back up the straight...
Steer couldnt quite complete that move on Gilson, and is still battling with Gilson...
After some bad luck and bad timing in Qualifying, Luke Russell started last, and 2 laps in, he is still last....
A great shot of positions 1 through 14 coming out of the turn....
In 14th, Daly McClure. He has the MTP of Carlos Rodriguez making a run on him...
A quick cut back up to the mid field further ahead, it is 3 wide down the hill with Gilson, Steer and Silva going at it...
They all survive, with Steer coming out ahead....
Gianluigi Silvestre sits in 2nd, close behind race leader De Bruyker...
More action a little further back, with DMR's Charrel Jalving and SCR's Nick Worseling side by side...
This aint good! A puff of brakes locking up, and the DMR driver is in too deep at the first turn....
Jalving is airbourne!!! The sand trap is not doing it's job here!...
Jalving has gone deep into the sand trap, amongst the safety fences waaaay off track. Worseling in the sand too, and Warrington as well?? WTF happended at Turn 1??
Rodriguez is also off!! He must have made contact with Warrington, right after the Jalving/Worseling incident....
Jalving is in very deep! 3 lines of fencing and the sand traps, couldnt slow him down....
Worseling rejoins, but well out of contention now - nothing but a test session now...
Same for Jalving....
Rodriguez though, he has not moved. Bogged, stalled, whatever. THe MTP has not moved at all, and the marshals have no choice but to come and move the car out of harms way. Day done for Carlos Rodriguez unfortunately...
No mechanical issues, just a simple unfortunate retirement...
Meanwhile, the other MTP of Scala is being hounded by Pedersen in the MAC Racing entry....
So, after a frantic few opening laps, lets take a look at the positions 1-8...
Then positions 9-16...
And finally positions 17-22... Worseling and Jalving 1/2 a minute behind, whilst Warrington appears to have escaped relatively quickly from the sand....
Gilson with the bit between his teeth, makes a dive down the inside on entry to Turn 1, challenging Silva for 8th...
Gilson makes the move stick this time....
Silva back to 9th, as O'Neill in the Alpha tags along in the background...
Aiden Keranen for Snake Motorsports, in 11th...
Tobias Kederer clinging onto that final points spot, very early in the race....
Ruben Greidanus in the second of the Snake cars, in 13th....
Daly McClure in 14th in the Ecurie Mistral...
Dan Mills in 15th, with Russell in the Christel, and then both Elleker and Hinz in the AMR's....
But at the front, it is still Tyrant Motorsports, and Marcus De Bruyker showing the way...
Gilson now having to drive defensively against the Alpha of Sean O'Neill...
Matteo Scala driving hard, to keep Soutsen within his sights, just ahead of him...
Joseph Gilson is in the action today, back to 10th now, with O'Neill ahead. But Gilson is having a crack at overtaking the Alpha...
O'Neill holds off Gilson...
Back to the Scala/Soutsen fight, and Scala is right on the back of the Christel....
Through the Kink they go, bringing with them Pedersen, Steer, Vilela and Silva...
Gilson again takes a look at O'Neill down the hill....
Side by side still....
But O'Neill prevails...
Keranen now closes right up on the O'Neill/Gilson fight - somehow we think this fight is going to just keep on going
....
Positions 9-16....
Positions 17-22....
De Bruyker still leads, with a gap of just on 2 seconds back to Silvestre...
Silvestre runs in 2nd for MAC Racing....
And capping off the top 3, Michael Pedersen for MAC - so far, a great day for MAC Racing....
And a quick field summary....
The O'Neill/Gilson fight is getting crazy = position changes,up/down! The poor RD can't keep up with it all!
Trouble down the field though, as Dan Mills runs wide...
He somehow misses the fences, sustains no damage...
Ends up facing backwards, and drops all the way back to 21st....
Back towards the front of the field, Paolo Silva has gone by Steer, to take 4th spot....
Silva now sets his eyes ahead, to chase down Pedersen in 3rd....
A good gap for the leader, back to the chasing Gianluigi Silvestre...
Pedersen sits 3rd, but has Silva closing up behind....
16 laps in, and 16 seconds covers the top 8 drivers....
9th through to 17th....
And 17th through to 22nd....
So, we now take the opportunity to go take our first ad break, ahead of the pitstops.
Can De Bruyker maintain this lead?
Will there be more carnage down at Turn 1?
How many times with O'Neill/Gilson swap positions?
Who will the driver be that is involved in a HUGE accident soon after we return?
Find out, when we return...

The same happened to Matteo right behind you. I'm still hoping that it was just you two going for early pit stops.

That’s my hope too, the gap makes it look like that...
