Well done Ronnie

I got the wrong end of the stick Sunday and thought you came second in the championship, well chuffed when I realise it was just second on the day and you won

Well deserved mate

And not forgetting your dad and all the rest of the team, well done lads

Well done to all the lads, I'm sure you've had a few late nights and panics over the series! But most of all I hope you've all enjoyed it, that's what it's all about!
I hope Ronnie isn't retiring just yet!

As James said, we didnt do a huge amount of work yesterday but it was really draining not being able to get the tyres to work! I recon we was 3 to 4 seconds a lap down on where we should have been...

Thank you everyone. I'm not going to go in to a big speech but without everyone's help. Friends and sponsors I wouldn't be able to do what I do. The car this year has been awesome. Apart from the hiccup in the first race the engine hasn't missed a beat. All that's needed for next season is a few mods and concentrate on suspension.

Yesterday was a strange day. Nothing on the car was touched from the previous race but it felt like a completely different car to drive. We are still learning the new tyres so I think it was down to that they just wasn't working to there full potential. The car was a complete handful to drive. When the on board footage is sorted I will post it up. But we done what was needed and won the championship in my 4th year trying
