[Mark B]

Just a bit of support 🤣🤣

[Gary F]

Wow hope there’s going to be a lot of stucks and crests 

[Mark B]

Maybe you can get created so we can practice 😜

[J-P L]

Wow, not sure if i am honoured or nervous with such a large support contingent. So we have license to move beyond refusals and get stuck and watch other people shovel and use their ropes! Or just pick my car up and move it to a better spot.

@J-P L you were getting good at avoiding situations and getting unstuck during the last morning drive.

I just feel sorry for your clutch.

Dear desert wanderers @Jon L, @Gary F, @J-P L, @Mark B, @Giacomo & @Benjamin thank you all for being on time this morning that meant we could get on with the briefing whilst it was pleasantly warm and not roasting hot.

We managed to cover 53 km's which is amazing for a newbie drive and given the few stops we had is testament to the driving skills that everyone showed off today. Bottom line is you guys drove fantastically well in our newbie/fewbie drive so a big well done to all.

 

A big shout out to my two second leads @Jon L and @J-P L guys performed brilliantly, giving plenty of room for me to be able to get to the radio and give you guys instructions as and when the need arose. You both drove brialliantly even when we picked up the level a tad so please take away from this the confidence you gained in your cars and yourselves. Thanks and great job guys.

@Giacomo hope you had fun on this newbie drive, your drove really well I do not remember hearing any instructions from the support team to correct your lines so well done to you. 

 

@Gary F and @Mark B thanks for the support today, as always a pleasure to have you both in the convoy leaves me little to nothing to do as you guys are more than capable of handling almost any situation that arises. great job and thank again.

@Benjamin great job sweeping mate, did not really here from you much in the drive except to tell me all was good at the back, so I hope you enjoyed the drive relaxing at the back, always good having you in sweep means that I do not have to worry at all about the rear of the convoy.
