Edmonton Race 9 + 10

Edmonton: Qualifying Troubles lead to Great Races

    It was a tough beginning to the weekend. After his crash in Toronto, Adrien and several other drivers were given penalties to serve which limited their time on track for practice and qualifying. It proved to make a difficult day as with such time constraints, Adrien and Paladin Motorsports couldn't find the right setup by the time of qualifying. And to boot, Adrien was penalized for 'blocking' when his left rear wheel came off. So, starting 21st and 24th respectively, it looking like a hard weekend ahead.
    What wasn't expected, however, was Adrien's best Formula Atlantic race. Starting 21st, Adrien made multiple moves off the start and avoided carnage to move up to 15th. He continued to make smart moves and stay clean for the race, passing his way up to 11th. "Well it was really a great day, we had an almost top10 finish, and made the most passes for the hard-charger award" Adrien said.
    Sunday's race was going to be even tough, because the penalty Adrien recieved for 'blocking' meant he was starting last. A similiar start as Saturday's race put Adrien up to 15th, but off the restart Adrien suffered some damage to his rear suspension which slowed him down. He still finished 16th, and won hard charger award, again.

    Overall, a very good weekend for Adrien. Next for Adrien, is, well, unknown, as the sponsorship money for San Jose has run dry. He is looking to complete the season, and is looking towards next year as well.
