Last Sunday I went to round 3, the last one, of our summer national series here in Finland. This was a race I long did not plan to go because it was the last weekend of my holiday and I don't really enjoy the track, but then decided go afterall to what will be the last race with the TRF417 V5 for me.

The day before the race it rained and on raceday morning the track was still damp in places. This made the conditions tricky and since I had not run on the track since 2010 I would have needed a bit of running on the Saturday to catch up. The car was not good in the beginning but changing the diffs to softer ones front and rear + some small other changes transformed it making the car quite good in the end.

One new thing since the last race was that I made a new slimmer and more flexing upper deck (see pictures), whcih I back-to-backed at this race and it was definitely an improvement so it stayed on.
