In todays first UIM Class one world championship race we retired on lap 6 with a broken power steering. We where then on 6th place witch was very good for us. On lap 4 the problem started.
The steering got very hard to control, and after two laps the steering broke totally down and would not operate at all. Because of an hose that started to leak oil.
This is offcourse very very dissapointing and frustrating but this is racing so everything can happen. The only positive thing is that the team is happy with our performance until the problem started. We needed that points in the championship for sure.
Anyway, we will now focus on the next race on thursday together with the good feeling we had in the start of todays race! Practice again on tuesday..
Spirit of Norway won the race before Victory 77 and Qatar 96.
