PICCA  ROUND  8 & 9 TAEBAEK  KOREA.

I qualified 8th. During the test sessions we got a good set up for the car.
Peter Allnut who was my engineer while I was doing F3 and Formula Nippon is helping me out he was at Beijingand this time in Taebaek. Porsche is new to him but I feel very comfortable as he knows about my driving style. He will be helping for the rest of the season and also for next year.

I got a good start and was able to take Alain but before the first turn he crept from the inside. Both of us had a good battle until on the 5th lap I over took him on the first corner but was too fast I ended up on the gravel but was lucky to come back and finished 8th.

It started raining and the first few laps we ran behind the Safety car as it was difficult to see. When the race started I couldn't see any thing in the front so had to go slower and after about 2 laps the wiper stopped working. But then the rain was not so hard and I got very good laps and was about 1.5 seconds faster than Alain who was far ahead of me

And on the last lap I was only 0.5 seconds behind. Ended up 8th.

It was not a bad week end but not too good. We are heading for the next race in Shanghaihope we can do better.
