Agreed, you've done a great job.

We lost a few places at the start, so not too ideal.

"My ambition is handicapped by laziness" - Charles Bukowski
Wrong account doh!
We are back for part 2 and its Tafuro who brings us back into the action closing down on Vukcevic



Antunis has just been passed by Kederer but is attempting to fight back



He is a bit far away and Kederer can slam the door shut



Girard having a bit of a peek at Jantsher but its going to be too far out for anything more than that



Another bump for Vilela but this time Edvardsen cut back onto the racing line and Vilela has nowhere to go



He hangs onto it though





The drop in pace sees him a target for Johnson who is coming alongside but Vilela just leaves him no road



Its a ripple affect this as that caused Johnson to back off and he goes defensive to stop Silva having a go



Its not going to be enough though as Silva sweeps up the inside of Johnson





There is Tafuro but where is Vukcevic



He is on the outside line and Tafuro takes another place



Behind them in perhaps the position we should just leave the cameras on Nikolov takes Byrne





Jantsher isnt going to let that happen to him as he shows Hunsley the rear of his car



Johnson with a big lock up trying to regain some of what he lost



Nikolov is already breathing down the neck of Maverick but its tight to make the pass there



And without the inside line as the track weaves back to Maverick he falls back behind



Hunsley is showing much more pace than Jantsher but he cannot find a way around



Girard has closed in onto the back of Byrne



And like magic he vanishes from the camera as he makes the attempt to get by



And will succeed and that sees Byrne drop a position on successive laps



Jantsher is defending as hard as he can against Hunsley



Vilela has regained the lost ground in the bump and is inside of Edvardsen



Both men keep it going till the exit where Vilela gets away better



And goes right across Edvardsen so he cannot even think of getting alongside



Kamikaze does what everyone has been doing at the Campagnano corner and passes Brilley who has been quiet so far



Jantsher is still making Hunsley work so very hard to pass him the frustration must be building in the englishmans cockpit







Silva looking at a pass from perhaps a bit too far



It seems Hunsley has finally managed to find a chink in Jantshers defense at the usual suspect for corners



Janthser is going to try and fight back but not have the legs



Edvardsen needs to check his mirrors more as he cuts in front of Silva trying to block the move and they touch





Its Silva who suffers and ends up backwards though



There is a queue of men trying to pass Maverick



Oh it turns out Maverick has a loose wheel and thats going to hurt his chances of a good finish



Now Hunsley has made his way past Jantsher he takes no hesitation to get up to Byrne off the aid of that loose wheel



The pace of Byrne keeps Jantsher in the mix as well



Kederer has been putting the hammer down and he passes Kamikaze at Cimini 1



Maverick rejoins from the pits with the problem fixed in 21st place



Make that 22nd for Maverick as Marinescu preys on the man trying to get the tyres going



Do not think Maverick is happy staying in last though and is alongside Marinescu running down to Campagnano



Same old same old Campagnano i think the fans are all trying to gather at that corner now as Maverick looks to push on





Not without Marinescu trying to get back at him and is alongside him into the next corner



The tighter line makes it harder to get away and Maverick drives away from Marinescu on the exit



Byrne cuts right in front of Hunsley and they are oh so close to touching there



It has been a pretty uneventful day so far for Silvestre who still leads just to remind you all he is out there



Oh Edvardsen has locked it up and this time cannot keep it on the line spinning the wrong way



He is poking out though and McGregor has nowhere to go smashing front wings together



Both men will need to pit to replace those





Hunsley is on his own in shot and thats because he has forced Byrne wide and taken the place and looks to push on for more points





McGregor rejoins in 21st as Edvardsen rejoins in 22nd both men way down and needing a big effort to get back into this although they look to use these as scheduled stops





Standings with the scheduled stops to come







Time for a short break join us for the pitstops as we give the men in shiney fireproof suits some tv time



I so much have no luck this season! Maybe, with a bit of luck, the early pitstop was late enough for not to have to make a third one...but with my luck I don't believe that.

We are back for part 3 and the let the pitstops commence.

There is an awful lot of activity and its Silvestre in first with Tafuro in second also coming in





Vukcevic continues on to take the lead temporarily



Then its Alpenstrom and Girard as Nikolov also stays out





Hunsley Byrne and Jantsher then after that and its almost all of the top ten coming in first







Silvestre returns in third for now



Tafuro 4th and i am sure looking to make inroads on Silvestre in this stint



Alpenstrom shoots out 7th right in front of a pack of drivers



Alpenstrom has to get defensive against De Boer leading them



Its a bit of a squeeze for all four but they get through ok





Girard is out in 12th while Hunsley back in 15th





Maverick finds himself in 16th now with the loose wheel stop and starting to file back into the order



Ahead of Byrne in 17th



While Johnson's crew got him out ahead of Jantsher for 18th at the moment



Jantsher just one back from that



Vilela is the next man around to make his pit stop



And returns to the circuit 14th



And right in front of Johnson who is going to try and get alongside Vilela



And will pass him at Cimini



Bad news for Vilela as well trying to hang on the outside he ran wide and span



Jantsher is so so close to making contact with him



Vukcevic pits and relinquishes his brief time as leader



Nikolov takes it over though and Silvestre is left waiting a little longer



Vukcevic returns in 4th place currently



Kederer pits from 8th and its time for the pit crews families to sky plus this moment as we get a glimpse of them in action



Kederer is back on circuit running 12th and back from the first lap incident with a good chance of points



Nikolov last to pit and its from the lead



Silvestre takes back the lead



And Nikolov is back at 5th



Vilela finds himself 13th now everything has died down and he settles into his position



With everyone pitting here are the new standings







Kederer still working on getting up to the points makes a victim out of the very stout today Jantsher



He is also now only 2 seconds away from getting onto the back of a point scoring position



Alpenstrom off camera lost his place to Nikolov and slips down to 5th



Kederer can now in fact see as far as 8th



And Johnson is starting to take defensive lines against Kederer



Alpenstrom is finding himself under threat from Girard



But has a little breathing room after that sighter by Girard



As we can it was not much breathing room as Girard pulls out of the slipstream to come alongside Alpenstrom



And Girard makes the move happen and takes 5th and Alpenstrom not enjoying the early stages after the pit stops



Johnson closes the door on Kederer and it looks like he could tow him they are so close



He opens the door a little though but its not going to be enough for Kederer this time



Alpenstrom is already falling away from Girard and back to Hunsley



One lap round for Kederer and this time Johnson cannot cut him off



Kederer takes the inside and gets up into 10th place



Just ahead of Kederer, Byrne has been looking to find some pace to make a run at Maverick



Johnson is already falling away from Kederer



Who is having a go from deep at Byrne



Byrne tried to turn in but Kederer was there



Kederer makes the pass he is not wasting anytime



Nice shot here of Kederer bearing down on Maverick as the others scrap behind



Byrne being slow out due to the pass lets Johnson get up alongside



Byrne outbrakes him though and keeps the place round the outside which we havent seen today



All this has kept Jantsher in distance as well and brought Vilela back towards this battle for points



Kederer is making Maverick aware of taking a wider line than that in Curva Grande



Brilley goes wide allowing Silva to make the move on him and grab 17th place





We join Maverick who looks to be pushed wide at you guessed it Campagnano



By Kederer and that is all three of the men in front of him and Kederer will continue to push on



That brings us to a break with more to come



Bulgaria statement

Well done, Nikolov. Starting 14th and already 5th gives us a good opportunity even for podium finish! Keep it up, boy!
We are back with the action yet again and its Brilley who we have not seen very much of locking up



And running off in what hasnt been a day of the most delightful of highlights for his fans



Hunsley is bringing that gap down to Alpenstrom who is not having the best of times right now



As Nikolov who is having a strong race closes in on Vukcevic



Hunsley is putting Alpenstrom under a bit of pressure as he comes across the track to cut him off



But Hunsley darts to the other side only to see Alpenstrom cut that out too



Hunsley has to let Alpenstrom get away a bit as he tries not to run into the back of him





Maverick is starting to hold up Byrne and co behind



And Alpenstrom has run very wide at Semaforo and gifts Hunsley the place



Alpenstrom manages to keep it out of the wall though and get going in 7th place





Maverick pits i am guessing those tyres were causing his struggles for pace



Byrne can now be released with some clear air



Ahh Nikolov from deep trying to pass Vukcevic but Vukcevic is already turning in and they collide



You can see from this angle that Nikolov is nowhere in Vukcevic's mirrors



It brings Girard ahead of both and onto a provisional podium



Nikolov returns to the track in 6th with Vukcevic in 8th





Maverick comes out from his pit stop in 20th



Johnson now finds himself back into the points



Janthser still trying to be difficult to pass as Vilela now knows



McGregor comes in for his stop



With the middle stints almost over its time for the standings





Johnson rejoins the circuit 17th after his pitstop to interrupt the standings





And finds Maverick passing him for it as soon as he came out into it



Tafuro pits from second position



Maverick does a little wiggle and it brings Johnson back to him



But he still covers any passing opportunity Johnson could have



Girard and Hunsley come in from 3rd and 4th respectively





Brilley finds himself on the end of another passing manoeuvre, this time from McGregor



Tafuro rejoins the circuit in second place



As Byrne pits



Girard comes out in 6th and has to defend to Vukcevic



And fails giving up 6th although i believe Vukcevic still has to pit



Hunsley rejoins in 8th



Byrne rejoins ahead of Maverick in 15th



Silvestre pits from the lead



And easily retains the lead



Nikolov follows Alpenstrom into the pits



Kederer pits too



Alpenstrom returns to the circuit in 7th place after his stop with Nikolov behind him in 8th



Kederer rejoins in 9th and looking good for points



Maverick finds himself under pressure from Johnson but its being optimistic to pass there



Jantsher finds himself 13th after pitstops



De Boer puts a move on Silva back down the field



Silva almost in an unintentional retaliation outbrakes himself hitting De Boer



Finds himself in the gravel though as De Boer manages to skirt the outside of the track





Vukcevic pits and gives up the 4th place



Kamikaze is last to pit and will drop out of the points place he holds because of that



Silva rejoins 20th



Somewhere around the circuit Johnson passed Maverick and will make his way into the top ten as Kamikaze is in the pits



Kamikaze rejoins in 12th just ahead of Jantsher and the late stop worked for him



Janthser carrying more pace though makes the move at Cimini on Kamikaze but still a good stop for Kamikaze





Standings after the second set of pitstops for the day







The gap between Tafuro and Silvestre has been pretty much where it is all day since Tafuro made it to second



Kederer puts in the fastest lap showing what kind of pace he has



Time for the final break



And we are back with the final part of whats been an eventful race so far lets get ourselves to the finish

Its Nikolov trying to regain what he lost and is attacking Alpenstrom



Alpenstrom outbrakes him though so he will have to wait for the Capagnano pass



There is a queue forming behind Maverick in 11th as it looks like his tyres are much older



Nikolov with a much more bullish attempt to pass Alpenstrom



He succeeds and gets to 5th



Jantsher is trying to squeeze his way up the inside of Maverick



And Maverick has to yield and Jantsher gets through can he make a push for 10th



Not until he tries to hold off this comeback from Maverick with Kamikaze hovering behind them



And he does get it back great fight from Maverick as it looks like Kamikaze could have a shot



But he does not manage it



Kederer is bringing the gap down to Alpenstrom



As we get a nice shot of the queue behind Maverick



All that squabbling has allowed Johnson to get away a little



Silvestre's only real challenge left is the three lappers in front of him



Jantsher has managed to get past Maverick again



This time there is no way back for Maverick



Kamikaze wants to capitalise on this



No chance says Maverick still not giving up on the older tyres



Gap under a half second for Kederer to Alpenstrom now



And in the same lap at Campagnano again eases past Alpenstrom





This time round Kamikaze gets up alongside Maverick



He has to work all around the corner but he takes it



Maverick wants back but is not going to be able to



Copeman now watching the back of Maverick



Jantsher is not able to make a dent in Johnson's lead for tenth



Past those lappers it is just up to Silvestre to get himself over the line



Maverick trying to defend Copeman as he fills up his mirrors



But cannot and its not consolation for Copeman who didnt manage what Kederer did today in climbing back up the field



Vilela is right up alongside Maverick



But he has the inside line and keeps Vilela at bay for now and Maverick would be one who deserves points who has driven hard considering the problem he suffered



Back down the field Brilley loses out to Silva



Johnson is actually managing to come back at Byrne and has the gap under a second with a lap to go



Silvestre wins it though and will be delighted with a great weekend for Team San Marino



Tafuro takes second



Girard takes the final podium



Hunsley 4th with Nikolov 5th





Great recovery drive by Kederer for 6th



Alpenstrom grabs 7th with Vukcevic 8th





And Byrne takes 9th keeping Johnson away at the end who takes the final points place





Here are your final standings for the race



Fastest lap goes to Kederer



Well, it was clear that I'd either struggle on very old tyres or would have to make another pit stop. Either way the tyre damage at the start of the race was a curse. Again no points after an actually decent qualifying. This goes like a red-line through this season and of course it's frustrating as it pushes me more and more back again in the championship. Even the minimum aim of P10 seems to get very far away. But I will not give up and the team won't either. Next race everything will get better again.


GPGSL : Team Owner of 'Maverick Track Performance' (MTP)
Well we were pretty much going backwards for the whole race, but it could have been much better than 8th if it wasn't for that clumsy move by Nikolov. But racing is racing and we can't make too much fuss over it, we got a couple of points. But its still not appreciated bulgaria ;)

Absolutely! No luck anymore without boost. Good drive by Kamikaze, but not good enough.

I'm a total dick. How many people can say that?
2nd is a great result for our home race:-)



My GPGSL Career
Great recovery drive, if only I had been more patient at the beginning... a podium would have been possible. Sorry for that hasty move, Chris, I pretty much ruined your race.


@icky: great coverage (Y), if you want I can run next round, so that you can concentrate on your exams.

I've already asked this, but it seems that the question went under a bit as it was right before the race coverage: will we keep the current carshape for next season?
