Round 2 - Auto Club Raceway (California)

Round 2 of the series took place at the Auto Club Speedway, previously Fontana in sunny California.

I was fastest in practise with a time 42.539 after my 10 laps.

In qualifying I was able to reproduce my fom and duly qualified in pole with times of 42.483 and 42.435.

There were 2 yellow flag periods in the first 10 laps, only one of which was caused by me. I was still leading when the third yellow came out on lap 24.

As lap 24 was the penultimate lap this caused a GREEN/WHITE/CHEQUER scenario meaning that the race length was increased to 29 laps.

I survived the retart to record my first win of the season.

My best lap of the race was 42.413 which was faster than I qualified!

I was now up to 8th in the standings, 44 points adrift of the leader.
