Oschersleben

Oschersleben was quite good, but i was so close to podium. In friday practice i felt really good with the bike but the times were not so good. In first qualifying were very difficult weather conditions, it was wet but the line was dry. Every lap the line went wider and wider so every lap times got better and better. In the end some 8 minutes before finish i went wide and to a wet place. It was slippery and i fell. Nothing happened but i  lost much time and i hadn't enaugh time to get some more fast laps so many guys drove faster times and i was eighth. It was in second row and this was important. Second qualifying was full wet so it was only for testing in case sunday would have been wet. Luckily it wasn't wet. It was exactly like first QP, maybe more dry. My start was good and first laps i could stay with front guys but then they got away a little bit. The group i was in was in a great fight and some passings were very tough. At some point i was alone because the group got away a little bit but then i could catch them. In last lap i was able to pass Rofner in the corner before last but there were yellow flags so i had to slow down and so my last corner were also not so good and Gerstacker could pass me in the finish line. I was disappointed because third place was so close but maybe next time in Nürburgring.

Lausitzring

Hi all. It's my first post in this new blog and it's about Lausitzring. First training in friday was all about learning the track. I was suprised that it was so bumpy. In QP1 we had new tires. Almost half of the practice, i spend to feel comfortable on the bike and in the end there were many slower riders in front of me and i felt like i was able to go faster. In the second QP i had one good lap and by this lap i was seventh. All the practice i was alone and i think it would have been better with some faster guys. Anyways we were happy because i had my first second row start. Sunday at race i had quite good start but the first corner for me was not so good. I lost a few places and for some laps i stayed with group and had some gap to first group. After some laps i could get free from group and I and Thurmayer started to catch Rofner. It was well done from Thurmayer that he didn't start to pass me from slipstream because we would have lost many time and maybe couldn't catch Rofner. In the end it was great fight with Rofner and Thurmayer with many great maneuvers. On the last lap they both pass me and it was not sure for me how it was going to end. Unfortunately Thurmayer crash in the last lap and from there Rofner got better away. Of course i was happy with the fifth place but always you feel that you could do better. It was a nice race, but i feel sorry for Aris. He did a great race and then got disqualified for so simple thing. I think thats all about Lausitzring and now we are looking forward to Oschersleben. See you there.
