Comments and (kind) constructive criticism welcome. I’m still a newbie and looking to improve.

Thanks for this! I’m still a complete newbie but this was the first race where defending sort of “clicked” for me. I was always giving too much space and giving up when faster cars approached.

Very nice. That same thing took me a long time, as well as learning to deal with the pressure while doing so.

Giving too much space is tricky too, I still struggle with this when I'm entering a corner side by side. It feels safer to leave a bit of a gap, but then you're entering really shallow and it actually makes it more likely to come together, gotta stay close right up to turn-in instead.

Every battle is an opportunity to improve!
