| The world's hardest race |
| Sunday, May 25, 2008 |
So after a really hard race to get back to the top, our last misfortune came during the last hour. Some damage, stone shot or other, to the front right cooler caused a leak and Peter had to shut down and park the car in Adenau to save the engine. We were then back up on 25th, which was a good bit from what we were aiming for anyway. The race is tough. I had 4 great fast stints which did not really get rewarded seen to results, but they were a personal display at least. The team has made an amazing job throughout the race and they really deserved a good result. A fuller report and pics will come in the next day or two! Carl
