Great video as always Ben! From what I can see you were driving brilliantly across the day. Your pace was mega and you were also making some really great decisive clean moves which I would expect from someone who’s only been to HR twice. Keep your head up high, you got unlucky in the heats but we all have those days. The important thing was you had the pace and racecraft to compete with the top guys. Regarding the guy turning into you on the back straight, it’s a slightly dirty tactic to lock the karts together to stop you from getting a better run. It can be annoying but some drivers do it and it is what it is really yk.
Thank you Tom, really appreciate the kind words it means a lot! Was super happy with the pace and the amount of moves I was able to make throughout the day. Just was a bit of a shame that the cards didn’t really fall in my favour on the day. Honestly was a bit confused when he was just turning into me but at least I was able to still sneak up the inside in the end. Taking a lot of positives from the event and looking forward to the next one soon!
@@shizukesajdm The bridge is one of the best parts of the track, really fun to try and send it over the crest as fast as you can! Was a bit annoying but I will make sure it doesn't all vanish for the next one 😂
@@BenPaines Exactly, the pusher looses out. I got pushed for 3 laps at Leicester track by a juniour, ha ha ha. Even though I kept pulling over to let him pass.

There was definitely room for a pass on Oli Payne under the bridge. Just a bit of a strange outcome.
I was really confused how his kart suddenly just took off to the right!
Yeah a rotter is one way to put it 😢
Think we both need to have a bit of luck our way next round 😅
