Dr. Ivo Eggman Robotnik (Tyrant Motorsport Chief Engineer): H-ho-ho! Look at ze timing screens, my dear gossips! Ze great Horta is dropping down ze order faster than Sonic running from my Super Egg-Mobile! Twenty laps of absolute torture in Barcelona, and he is stuck down in fifteenth! Ho-ho-ho-HAAAAA!
We have covered 21 frantic laps around Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, with Peplepep steering the #56 Chrysler Viper GTS-R to a commanding GT1 victory in 0:34:26.009, leaving Bobby Verdon-Roe and Jamie Campbell-Walter to scrap over the remaining podium crumbs. Meanwhile, our brave duude Fernando Horta wrestled his #01 Lister Storm across the line in P15, twenty laps down and fighting demons in sector three. Whispers in the paddock suggest his steering wheel was vibrating to the tune of the Macarena.
To ze tune of My Way:
And now, ze race is near,
Ze Viper takes ze final curtain.
Ze tyres are gone, ze gear
Is broken, nothing here is certain.
Ze boost is high, ze spin
Was dirty, causing quite a panic.
Horta drove through it all,
And crashed it like a maniac!
Ze Council notes with mild amusement that driver #38 Mike Hezemans retired on lap six after claiming a wild boar stole his gear lever. The ElderCouncil has accepted this explanation and immediately retired to the nearest tapas bar for a siesta.
Ps. Liz
