Straight after the lights went green I soared off into the distance.
Goal number 1 was to get more than 1 second in from to stop being attacked via the DRS system.
Goal number 2 was to achieve a clean pit stop, this I did at the end of lap 5.
Goal number 3 was to drive to the chequered flag. This is where it went wrong. Having come out of the pits into traffic I followed the car in front too closely at the end of lap 6 and went into the pit lane when he did!
At the chequered flag I'd recovered to third place.
Another 15 points towards the championship.
I was up to 5th in the championship ratings.
