[5th Lap]
At the 5th lap of the Australian Grand Prix, a great problem struck Trampos Racing again, the second time this season. Before that, Jimmy Damgaard appeared to be all there was to worry about, the only threat to a smooth back-to-back victory for Luca since Ailbeart Moireach was in P5 and Luigi had started at the bottom of the grid.
Jimmy's consistency and sharpness in the opening laps meant that if he had started in P1, and perhaps Luca in P5, he would instantly have become the measuring stick for everyone else on the grid.
Without needing chaos or luck, he was honing his pace himself, unsettling Luca and proving to be the one true obstacle to the Mazerunner's march toward another win.
Both drivers had switched positions only once in the 2nd lap, where Jimmy had shown slight impatience by utilizing the outstanding features that came with a HiCE-powered machine. But that only gave him a couple of seconds to hold and retain the spot, which he unfortunately couldn't.
