Eeek! Pelle doing pre-qual in a Brabham.

Eeek! Pelle doing pre-qual in a Brabham.

In what pit did you hide?? I was all alone

HushHush, had to test how fast Dag would be ... next test, Ferrari
...but calm, I stay in my Torro Grosso

When I have now been discovered in my secret test, yes...I set new times in both Brabham & Honda, good for my Monster Rank

[Dag Johnsen]

Im way off the pace probably , gonna practice a little today but I will be very suprised if I can match Pelle`s pace in the grosso. Monza is not any type of favourite track for me , never has been.

Its gonna be close in the championship towards the end of it , thats for damn sure...

[Clive Loynes]

HushHush, had to test how fast Dag would be ... next test, Ferrari

I don't think that the Ferrari is going to bother you. Prib says that if all my best bits are strung together I should have a 28.8 in me but you know that that isn't going to happen!

Unless I can get a tow behind a big fat Torro Grosso!

[Mezcua]

Just to show there were some fantastic laps today with Sergio, Pelle, Clive and myself





Pelle is strong here but there will be some more drivers trying to steal his wallet

[Pelle_B]

YEAH, Great practice the day before the race, we really had fun

SRY if I drove a little closer than I used to, but I've had a lot of trouble with my connection after I got 1GB, today they found another mistake & now the fourth Router (brand new model) so I tested a little more than usual.
Got a little better time in my Grosso, but no time to test Ferrari

I can get a tow behind a big fat Torro Grosso!

My Torro Grosso is so heavy, I may not discover you have a rope behind me

Jack Brabham had a rope on a Grosso here ? - the finish line in 1967

[Clive Loynes]

Last night was great fun, especially the first two laps when I was fighting off the two white whales!

Sorry to Sergio as I think that I may have brought an end to his race at Curva Grande. When being attacked by two Hondas I lost track of the second one and then found it to the inside of me.

[Xug]

I was late for a few minutes, tried to join but "connections not being accepted", on TV I saw you were only on lap 3...
so, offline training: 1m30,4s, PB with Cooper

[Clive Loynes]

The pre-qual page has switched to Porto but I think that it should be Mexico.

Good luck all

[Mezcua]

Thx all for racing ... and grats to Pelle Clive and myself

[Dag Johnsen]

Grats Pelle , Clive and Tago.

Sorry for the contact Sergio , most unfortunate. I tried to back off but just clipped your left rear. Wasnt my intention.

Other than that it was a messy race for my part , had a decent run on Clive but got caught out when braking into parabolica and had to go off to avoid taking him off and from there everything was a struggle.

[Clive Loynes]

Congratulations to Pelle, who took just about everything on offer at this one.
That is, pole, fastest lap and most consistent.

Grats to David on getting the best improvement on starting position. And that was at four laps down!

It was obvious from the start that I couldn't match Pelle and then to make matters worse I had a little wobble at Curva Grande. That brought Dag onto my gearbox but he tripped over me going in to Parabolica and probably took a trip to the sand. I saw him coming and did my best to get out of the way but after that I was just intent on keeping tagomago at a safe distance.

The gap to Pelle grew steadily bigger, as did the gap to tagamago but not as fast. Pressure all the way but I was happy to have kept the nose of the red beast aimed in the right direction.

See you in Mexico.

[Pelle_B]

Big Grats Clive & Tago
…& a 'little' Thank You, you held Dag behind you & I came a little closer in points

Practice:
My qual setup was really good & fast (got improved my Monster Rank 2 times), but in practice before the race...I got a shock, my race setup was useless. Spun around countless times

Qual:
Fighting with my race setup & hope I had changed to something better, but impossible to believe in Pole with 21 laps in the tank
6 minutes before qual is finished, on with my qual setup...& it succeeded
The qual was stressed, strees & strees...& afterwards, it looks so easy


Race:
A noisy Ferrari on my side & my fat Torro Grosso...curiously already thinking of Curva Grande, but luckily Clive slide a little & I can take the inside line. Clive was in front for a moment

The rest of the race, pressure, pressure & pressure, incredibly Honda engine does not explode. Engine temp I could hold 103c...wish there was one in the race that said: Relax, you're in front. Today, everything went well
Dag down on a 4th place, it gives even more excitement in points
Next Mexico, but there are tracks that definitely are not my favorite

How unfortunate can we be, a whole chain reaction out of Ascari, so badly Sergio, Tron & Xug

Grats to all of You & Thanks for - as always - a fun day here at PDLR
