| End of our race |
| Sunday, June 10, 2007 |
Ulf had an incident during the night when he had to avoid two cars that crashed in front of him, but the team quckliy towed the car to the pits and replaced radiators and the front bumper. Martin went out and we started to pick up positions again but suddenly the engine just gave up after 4-5 laps into Martins stint. We have downloaded all data from the data logger at every pitstop to keep check on oil pressure, temperature, revs and so on, and there was no sign of anything alarming, the engine just blew.
 Really disappointing since we were running extremely well, up in the top 10 already.
Now we´re just trying to get over this and look forward to upcoming races. I´ll get back to you with more pictures and reports in a while.Labels: Racing |
