Porsche Supercup 2008 Round 1 Bahrain

Edwards manages an excellent 13th in Round 1

Sean Edwards made amends for qualifying lower than he hoped by having a fantastic round 1 race.

A hot Sean Edwards commented: "The race was always going to be hard as qualifying is so important. My first standing start in 3 years and I got a good one and went from p17 to p11 on lap 1!! On lap 2 I ran slightly wide and Zanpedri got to the outside for the quick right hander, I didn't yield and he turned in, hit him quite hard and he went sideways off the track. The problem was I damaged the suspension and damper and the steering wheel was off at an angle, so for the rest of the race I had a huge amount of turn in oversteer. It was really hard to pass people, but I got 13th in the end - which is pretty good anyway!"

Start P19 tomorrow, so again going to be hard work, but I am looking forward to it, mega racing in this championship!
