Round 1 Sepang Malaysia / 21st of March.

I was very excited as this was my first race in the PICCA. Testing was good and qualified 9th. I had a bad start but kept my position and finished 8th. I was happy with the results as I know I will do well in the next races.

Round 2 & 3 Sepang Malaysia / 8th of May.

This time I was more confident with the car. Qualified 9th. I had problems in setting up the car on the test day and in the qualifying. But my mechanics Christy and Wang always does the best and we got a better set up for the race.
I did not have a good start again and had some one bumped on me in the first corner which took few seconds but kept the pace and finished 6th. I knew I could do better in the second race. But I was very unfortunate the car stopped on the starting grid due to a wire loose connection had to watch the race in the pit.

Round 4 & 5 Bira Thailand / 20th of June.

I really liked the circuit very exciting and challenging. My lap times were good from the test day. I am getting used to the car and also I have found good set ups on the car. My mechanics Christy and Wang has been very helpful.
Qualified 7th the best up to now and was only 1 second behind Pole sitter. I had a very good start and by the first corner I was 5th. Another driver bumped on to me in the first corner on the 8th lap and had another in the second corner which damaged the front bumper and the radiator and I had a stop.
The second race I had to start 15th but had a very good start and by the 2nd lap I was 7th. On the 7th lap I saw the warning lamp come up and decided to stop without damaging the engine. Later found out the water level was low. I was very disappointed. But it is racing. But I am very confident with the car now and need to get on the podium soon. The good thing is with all the disappointment in the race every one is so supportive. And encourages me including the other drivers, mechanics and the Porsche staff. My sponsors including the chairman of IWS Holdings is always there to support me and it is so nice to be with them. I will do my best in the next round in Beijing.
