It was a tough weekend at Knockhill, we had good pace in the dry but it was tough in the wet!

Free Practice went well but the first session we had an issue witht the radiator which ment i missed most of the session, but in the second session all was good, we found a good base setting and I was ready for qualfying!

Qualifying was a frustrating session I knew I had the pace to be inside the top ten but with 10 minutes to go of the session we put in a new tyre and I only managed 3 decent laps before we had a issue with the bike which meant I missed the rest of the session I was in P9 but dropped back down to P16.

Race 1 I got a good start but started to drop off as I struggled in the wet with feeling from the front, the rear was great and had grip but I dropped off and finished the race 16th. I put in a good lap time towards the end which put me P11 on the grid for tomorrows race.

Race 2 I got another strong start and was inside the top 10 for the first few laps, but I started to drop back again as before and finished the race in 14th place.

I tough weekend all in all, but I was happy with our dry pace and the bike was working mega in the dry, I need to work on my set up in the wet though! As always a big thank you to all my team for all there hard work over the weekend, I will come back stronger at Snetterton!
