It's my best ever result at HHV. Not a course I traditionally go well on.
I got a flying start. Was 3rd and moving up to the front, 2nd place moved out to block me and we tangled bars.
I ate shit at quite a fast pace.
Went back to like 15th.
Somehow managed to get back on and going and move up quick before the race completely got away.
Inside the top 5 before the end of the first lap.
Then picked them off one by one.
But I feel like I had the pace to go with Alec. As I was catching him once I got to the front.
Oh well. That's racing and 2nd to Alec is fine with me
Have secured an overal league podium, and still on a battle for 2nd overall. So it's all down to the final round next week
