Yesterday was the first day of qualification and racing here at a warm and Sunny Brands Hatch.
And, as ever, racing with Gary Stevens is never good for my wonky ticker โค๏ธ๐
The NG Road Racing Open qualifying. He slotted into second place, with a 47.+ He was so shocked to see the time on his dash that he promptly slid off at the entrance to Clearways ๐ฑ๐ซฃ
The crash repairs meant missing qualifying for the Powerbike, giving him an automatic back row start.
First race, The Open. He led from the first to the last lap for the WIN ๐
Powerbike, came through from last place to get 7th. Setting things up for a better day today. He is surrounded by some amazingly generous and supportive fellow riders and friends ๐
