Here i go, I had a reasonable quali, until my teammate stopped in front of me for no reason giving me a penalty throwing me back in the grid just in front of Linden. My race didn't start well as i bumped sauber in front of me started really slow to avoid the first corner accidents but I managed again to avoid the first corner crashes ( i haven't been involved in any of them the entire season) and my drive through wasn't such a pain in the ass because half the field had to pit for new wings ad stuff. From there one i had a quiet and peaceful race, untill i met a struggling Oliver. He was determined to finish in front of me and kept me after him for a long tie. Then he did some stupid things causing me to get 2 penalties for no reason at all... . I was furious cuz he screwed up my quali AND my race. Eventually i got back after him until someone crashed. When the safety car went back in the pits there was a chaotic restart, causing a Ferrari and Oliver to go off track, giving me some places. After that i had some trouble getting control over my car as it was raining. Eventually i had to pit cuz it was drying up and i needed faster tyres. Linden got in front of me and stayed there. I am sure if i didn't had all these undeserved penalties i could've finished above him and get a top 5 finish. But i eventually finished in 6th place, resulting in my comeback in this racing league, as i hadn't scored in a wile. Big congratulations to Andrew, who was a fair driver and a deserved winner, and about my teammate, this isn't over yet...

Went into qualifying knowing I was going to be slow as usual, so was considering if i was going to do a lap or not, decided to do it on Primes, got 10th but because of penalties moved up to 8th.
Race start, knew there was going to be collisions at the start so i tried to avoid it all, someone spun Oli right infront of me, then i drove through 2 ghosts and got a drive through for some reason, got up to 6th, did my drive through end of lap 1, came out 10th. Somehow Knapman was the wrong way round when i came out the pits so i hit him head on and lost my front wing straight away, then Matt was relentlessly barging the side of my car when i was sideways after hitting Knapman. Pitted at the end of that lap and was in 12th which soon became last.
Started making my way through the field after than, chopped my way through to 5th, on lap 15 and 16 My tyres were gone and Linden and his team mate were all over me, linden tried passing me on pit straight with DRS, it was close he had the outside i had the inside, and he braked too late and went straight on into the wall, then his team mate tried passing me a couple of times. I then peeled into the pits. It started to rain the same lap i pitted for new primes, so a few laps later i had to pit again, i went to wets which was the wrong choice, so a lap later had to pit again for inters, then the safety car came out and it got even wetter so another lap later i had to pit for wets.
In the wet i got 3 more penalties but the field was spread far apart i kept a good position, I thought i was going to finish 7th, then another safety car came out, and it dried up, i had to pit again for inters, something weird happened which i cant remember, but somehow i got from 7th to 3rd and finished the race in 3rd.
All in all, it was a usual race for me, bad qualy, good in the race. But this time I had 4 penalties and 5/6 pit stops.
Finally taken the lead from my consistency in the championship.
Well where can i start messed up first qualiy lap then while going for my next flying lap Oli moved infront of me and i went into the back of him and got 10 place penalty so didn't want to start 11th or anything so made sure i got another penalty so i could start at the back, As the race started my Wheel disconnected and wouldn't reconnect which saved me from the massive pile up into first corner bit later on coming up to Oli he was very slow coming out of a corner and i tapped him so got a drive thru bit later it started raining but i pitted to early and struggling like hell i had to pit 3 laps in a row once for a wing and 2 more drive thru from corner cutting got onto full wets and another saftey car and as the safety car was coming in i put my foot down and lost my rear which made a chain reaction behind of crashes very bad race but from others getting DNF's and losing connection got 5th and Alex got 2nd so not a bad result in the end for McLaren.
