As always the races here at Festbierbude are great with some fantastic chases, battles and fair play driving.

I broke my personal best in the quali twice, making new track record on the server. The second time i was quite surprised because i was able to make lap with 7 tents of the second faster, even though i didn't change anything to the setup.

At the start i kept the lead and the next 30 minutes me and Schwamerl were chasing each other with the gap no more than 2 seconds.

Unfortunately i forget to load the tank to the max and and the pit stop my mechanics were pretty slow. I was not sure if my mediums are gonna last till the end, i mean the front left one, so i decided to put some softs for the second stint.

Unfortunately for me Schwamerl was now 25 seconds in front of me, as i was able to close the gap to 20 for the next 3 laps, but after that my front left tire started to overheat like hell. The last 5-6 laps i was sure that with that aggressive driving the front left wont make it to the final, so i started taking the right corners pretty slow, managing the tire.

Congrats to Schwamerl and AElien.

I hope to see some more DTM action here as this championship is close to its end now, as i like the 2018 mod in Kolschbierbude as well.
