GPGSL S16 - Round 9 - Cheese, Make United States Grate Again Grand Prix - Road America
Posted by GPGSL
Pretty surprised with my performance so early.
My laptime 1:29.835 at FP1 would catch a 5th place at Qualifying.

Solid start for Sean. Disappointed with my own run in practice - perhaps too many beers celebrating the title last season.

What a first qualifying session!
A good start to the season - 3rd place in both FP and Qualifying. Hope to improve that during the race

5th and 7th is an awesome start! I knew putting Michael and Jack back together was the best thing for Christel!

The night was prolific, not a lot of sleep but a good time in the end.
Welcome to the first race of Season 16!
We have clear skies, not a single cloud is expected
The grid is lined up
Gustavo retains his lead after the first turn. Silva looses a place.
Ancevski rounds off the top 22
Pedersen attacks Silva for 3rd
There is contact, Pedersen does a half spin, Silva flies off
The out of control Silva spins back on the track into the path of following cars
Complete mayham, we have yet to find out who are the victims of this incident
Replay: Pedersen just runs straight into Silva
Silva spins towards the track
He hits Hinz
de los Rios is out, with crutial car components missing
Hinz' wheel tries to go on without the rest of the car
Silva collects some spare parts, de los Rios and Hinz are out
Further down the field Sheppard hands out a nudge
O'Brien runs wide in the first corner
Buitenhuis with a clean overtake on Cronin
A tough fight for the final points paying positions
Meanwhile, Gustavo extends his lead
Szucs runs into Sakata's back
Sheppard runs wide in the fast chicane
Majumdar takes evasive action and is off into the grass
Both survive but are down the order
DeBruyker on the move
He outbrakes himself...
...and spins
He rejoins in last place
Buitenhuis with the first scheduled pitsop
O'Neill goes for an undercut on Gustavo
Gustavo carries on and extends the stint
Crucially, O'Neill rejoins in clean air. He needs to put the hammer down now.
Gustavo finally counters the undercut
He rejoins in the effective lead
Caranti with solid pace and no mistakes on course for a great result
Cronin looses control right next to Karda
Both go off
Karda just manages to stay in the points after this enforced excursion
Cronin is less lucky
Gustavo controls the race and has built a solid gap
There is a clear candidate for most places gained
Gustavo enters his last lap
He wins the Australian GP in dominant fashion
O'Neill holds on to 2nd
Caranti rounds of the top 3
Fastest laps
And the final result

Shame I didn't move up any places, but the pace seemed good, hopefully a more positive season for me
A decent result for Szucs got thrown out of the window. Nonetheless, we showed we have the speed to finish in the points. We hope for better results next race.
Good job by Aidan to secure the team's first points in what was quite a chaotic race at parts. Especially his best lap being the 2nd fastest of the race is encouraging. Glen a bit unlucky with the off, otherwise it could've been points for him to.
Thanks Chris for running the race!

Good race for me, but Luis got caught up the mayhem on lap 1 and had to retire.
A good 2nd place and on the podium. A good start for the season and I hope there will be more podiums.
