“The weekend started well for us and I ended qualifying in fifth place in mixed conditions. I had a good race one with a podium and we had a small technical issue, which just hindered us from fighting for the lead but we ended up with third and that got us back some points. We made some changes for race two and I got a good start and I had the same issue, so I salvaged some consistent points and all in all we gained some back. Now we have 20 points to the Tom at the top of the standings so we are looking forward to going again at Donington Park next weekend.”
