Monza Race Notes - USSR Lotus F1 Team
One race vin, 3 great laps, one second place. That's what USSR Lotus achieved on legendary Monza track
Shaka: The car was once again the fastest of the field, thanks to the MiG efforts on engine side, but it was also unreliable. This proved essencial on Qualifying, where I easily secured Pole Position and Bonus Point. The Feature race was an eventful one, with a few incidents on track and an overheating engine that made me short shift for lower revs on the second half of the race. Fortunaly my main opponents suffered plagues too, mainly with Race Stewards and crashes and I could just cruise home without too much trouble. On celebrations my engine and left rear tyre both exploded...
On Sprint race I made a few mistakes and had some collisions with my opponent tib, who I must ask to forgive me for. He and I are good friends even if we are fighting for a title and I'm truly sorry my mistakes ruined our races. I followed him until he pit for repairs and rejoined behind him, one lap down newcomer and race winner Dave, who drove a comfortable race and secured his first win on his second ever race for us. Congratulations to him and a big "sorry, guys" to tib and his race crew.
I'm already looking forward to Suzuka, a track I always liked. The TVR is a completely different car, even more with the extra 55kg I'll carry for next two rounds, but the championship is looking closer to me. I'm not sure if I'll be racing under the red flag as they still didn't pay me...
General Zangiefov: Ze team vinally von a race, just one, but a vin is a vin. Shakov did a super job on first race and vas great at destroying the target on ze second one, eliminating the jet fighter number 29. Ve lost contact vith jet 49, but considering the Loselv Racing were using our T-car, it vas like vinning both races!
