After the drivers briefing we went back to our cars ready to do a 'spotters lap' which basically is a slow drive around the track to see the layout. Then you are allowed to go faster. Both myself and Bryn (and many others) span out on these first laps. It was chucking it down with rain and hard to get any grip. One of the marshalls smelt petrol from my car and retired me. I had just filled up with fuel around the corner and with the cornering it leaked a bit.
