Actually when the gear lever came away I was reasonably laid back, we have had the most amazing reliability with the car this year (and some good fortune - the exhaust primary that fell off and into the steering link at Silverstone and then bounced out as the jammed steering took me across the kerb!) and Leo's first stint was quite exceptional. To go from the back row (12th at the end of the first lap!) to 2nd overall in that company was exceptional and was one of the highlights of my year - as Metallica have said; the memories remain! So the overriding feeling was really one of sadness that we couldn't celebrate Leo's drive in the way we should have, some days you get the bear, some days the bear gets you!
