Snetterton - Action, drama and a podium finish

Our one and only weekend double-header meeting of the year brings us to Norfolk. Snettertin is not a favourite circuit of mine but I've had some good results here.

Qualifying reminds me why I don't get on here when despite feeling comfortable with the car I only manage to secure 6th position on the grid.

Race one gets off to a better start when I get up to 5th off the line and then pass Tim Wilson for 4th. I then start putting Tony Smith under pressure for 3rd and get a good run on him on the exit of Coram and get alongside him on the run down to the Russell chicane. In my pursuit of third place, I don't notice the yellow flags waving at the chicane and wonder why Tony doesn't relinquish the place to me. He's wondering why I'm trying to overtake under yellow flags! Consequently, we pass through the chicane side by side which spits me out very wide onto the grass and stones on the outside.
