Got my first win in Career mode, the US GP.
It wasn't that eventful of a race. I took the pole narrowly over Vettel. Me and Vettel both did the same tire strategy n Q2 and used the softs and barely got into Q3.
turn 1 lap 1
Vettel beat me to turn 1, but later in the lap, I got a run and got by him.
not sure what happened to Vettel, he just dropped back and I never saw him again. I think he finished 6th in the end.
I lead all the lap until I pitted on lap 13. I came out behind Kimi, but he was on a 2 stopper while I only pitted once.
I retook the lead when he pitted, he came out 15 seconds behind me. He was closing in fairly quickly, nearly a second a lap, but I hung on to get my first win.
the win put me 1 point ahead of Hamilton for 2nd in the points.
I think I will increase the difficulty for next season to Legend and start playing with custom setups to try and make up the difference. I tried before and was always qualifying back in 20th-22nd, even with laps faster than I was doing on expert to get the pole(using one of the preset setups).
Grojean got stuck behind some of the slower cars doing 1-stops and ended up 7th I believe, right behind Vettel. He was fast all practices, just didn't qualify good(9th).
