Here will I give You my comment.
First heat:
I was in third row, I got a good start. I was on the sixth place when two cars went in to eachother front of me and I got up on fourth place and got six nice points with me.
Second heat:
Started in first row and did what I have been told to. I took the start and the leed and I keept it all the way, got further twelve points. But it did´t went without probleme the last lap, I hade a flat tyre on left front wheel.
Third heat:
Started in second row, Stellan told me that I should try to follow Rickard Björk who was standing in the first row. I had a good start and in the first curve I was on second place behind Rickard. But my unaccustomedness made it self clear I did some mistake and lost some places, I ended on a fifth place.
Final:
I was qualified as the sixth car and had to start in second row behind Rickard Björk. On the starting grid Ididn´t have enough heet in the cooler. There was no rotation on the water so the engined didn´t got cooled of the water. Stellan was trying real hard to get the air out that probebly was the problem. The startingman gave us the signal and the mechanics leaved the plat. I still haven´t got any heat in the cooler when Stellan asked me what to do? I said to him thats up to You to decide. The startingman camed and I got the signal to start. Stellan gave me a "Good luck"-touch on my helmet, Let´s try! The start went off and went away good and took fourth place. Through second curve my unaccustomedness made itself clear once again and I made some few mistakes. But I finally succed into the goal as the sixth car and it was a very good feeling when Stellan gave me the sign to switch off the engine. It seemed that the coolingsystem worked during the whole race and our gambling reaced over the finishline.
