This Friday, it was finally time to head to Hockenheim for the first race of the German TimeAttack Masters this season. Very excited but full of anticipation!<\/p>

Due to Erika's failure (RC Club 2WD class), Helena (RC Club NA class) was loaded onto the trailer instead, and we arrived at the track shortly after 8 PM, just in time to line up right behind SPS Motorsport. In the evening, we quickly applied the stickers and attached the transponder before heading to the hotel for the night.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

On Saturday morning, Erik arrived in Hockenheim right on time before the driver's briefing, so everything was ready and I was able to hit the track for the first practice session at 9 AM. \nThe second practice took place an hour later, after which we realized that my front brake pads were getting dangerously thin. Unfortunately, neither we nor SPS had any spares on hand. Thankfully, Erik drove to Speyer and managed to get new ones from a Mazda dealership. We then quickly swapped them out during the lunch break.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Da das mein erstes Mal am Hockenheimring war, hat sich vormittags schon eine starke Lernkurve abgezeichnet. Dabei konnte ich meine anf\u00e4ngliche Zeit bis zum Mittag um 5 Sekunden verbessern.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In the afternoon, things continued with the warm-up session. Unfortunately, I had a spin just after the Ravenol curve, during which I pulled out the edge of the front left fender. Luckily, it happened in the last lap. Erik and Chris were able to fix it in the time before the qualifying session.
Im Qualifying habe ich meine Zeit dann nochmal um fast f\u00fcnf Sekunden verbessert. Trotzdem hat es dieses Mal leider nicht f\u00fcr das Finale gereicht.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Auch wenn ich mich leider nicht f\u00fcr das Finale qualifizieren konnte, war mein erstes Rennen f\u00fcr mich ein voller Erfolg! Ich habe unfassbar viel gelernt, meine Zeit kontinuierlich verbessern k\u00f6nnen und mein Ziel, nicht letzte zu werden, voll erreicht. Auch Erik ist sehr zufrieden mit meiner Leistung und ich habe viel Lob erhalten. Vielen Dank auch an alle, die mich unterst\u00fctzt haben!
Dennoch, ich habe auch jetzt noch so viele Stellen im Kopf, an denen ich weiter meine Linie oder Technik optimieren kann, Dinge die ich noch ausprobieren m\u00f6chte und w\u00e4re am liebsten noch weiter gefahren.<\/p>

I'm really looking forward to the next race in June at Oschersleben, to get back on track, continue improving, and of course, to see all my pit neighbors again \ud83d\ude09.<\/p>

Then hopefully with Erika!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
