    Just a huge thanks to you Ferrari Challenge pilots who put the 458 Challenge cars on the track at COTA!!!! This was my first Ferrari Challenge viewing and it was absolutely the high light of the day. I'm sure the F1 will be fantastic tomorrow, but the Ferrari Challenge drivers made today a great day at COTA!!!

    The race was fairly amusing. Lots of crashes after the first turn. Some very bad driving. One of the better drivers taken out by a poor driver.

    Top two drivers were very good. Lots of lead changes. Made for better racing than the F1 race!

    It was indeed a hectic race 2
    Struggle with the handling of the car all weekend after missing 1st practice, and could not get a good lap in Qualifying. Moved from P8 to P5 in Race1, and on Race2 managed to stay out of trouble to get the Win!

    Thanks!

    Big props go to the R3 / AutoGallery Motorsports Team for their impecable support through the whole weekend. They did an awesome job as usual, and this time we got that bit of luck that avoided us at the Montreal events the last 2 years!
