Winning is the aim of the game and, despite maybe seeming unrealistic to some people at the minute, that’s what I’m chasing so anything less is off the mark BUT I feel like the Rockingham weekend silenced a few critics and showed that I am not messing around. I’m prepared to stick my neck out regardless of my recent injury and I’ll keep on digging until I get where I want to be. Obviously I do have to be realistic and accept I’m four rounds behind in one of the most competitive race series in Europe, so I’ll take a 6th and two 5ths going 1.6s under my PB.

A huge positive from the weekend was that it stayed dry! I've really struggled to get dry time since getting back on the bike 4 weeks ago. I needed some back to back dry time to build my confidence and I got that this weekend so it was a relief! I’m still learning the setup on the Dunlop tyres too and I’ve only done the one dry round at Brands in a cold March since I switched from Pirelli last year. My team learned a thing or two there. On a slightly negative note my stock engine which I’m still running from last year was really highlighted at Rockingham, I was getting hammered down the two long straights. There isn't money in the budget to tune the motor so I’ll just have to live with that for now. 

On reflection I have a really positive outlook towards Anglesey for the next round and hope to continue making steps nearer the podium towards the end of the year. I owe it to everyone at Arkoni and all my other sponsors, friends and family. Time will tell but my head is in a really good place at the minute and that's half the battle!
