marciello was erratic especially with his braking and constantly over drove the car and buckled under the enormous pressure on him--berthon was on holiday and it showed and quite frankly was a disapointment.
I dont think anyone can doubt the ability of cassidy and evans to be worthy of running at the front--but lest be honest all the others shot themselves in the foot by falling off the track or making contact with others and throw away points--cassidy kept clean and won when he could and picked up points when he couldn't.Asseldonk could have won the series but shot himself in both feet along the way.
i could not see any speed differences between cars apart from what the drivers were inducing.
great series -well organised and professional and i believe most were happy except for the lads who got there asses whipped and ego's dented.mr marciello swagger around the pits was quite different at round 5 to what it was at round 1......
i have seen many drivers jump to another type of formula car and struggle and vice versa.......
Well said.

I don't believe failure is always a bad thing, as if one is honest with themselves they can find ways to learn from their experience and improve as a driver.

Some of these guys probably had their head filled with the top dog ego and it turned out there were the dogs breakfast. Good to take them down a notch.
