JUDGE'S NOTES: YOUSUF ASHRAF

His first eCoty, so what did Ashraf make of it all?

- 

HOW THE HELL IS THAT Morgan keeping up? A pattern was emerging here. I couldn't shake it in the Revuelto the night before, and the next morning the Supersport was humbling me again, this time in the GT3 as I led the group to our first location. Road closures had diverted us to a mountain pass wide enough for one car, occasionally two, with fallen rocks and debris lining the road like boobytraps, ready to pop a tyre or scuff a splitter. We navigated these carefully, Dickie in tow in the Supersport, but as soon as we got back on the main route the GT3 was free — in its happy place somewhere near 9000rpm, picking the road apart with stunning grip and precision. I wouldn't see the Morgan again until we reached our stop, I thought. Except that it stayed right with me for the next half an hour with seemingly no effort as I hustled the Porsche and whap-whapped through the gears, befuddled that the Supersport's round headlamps were still in my mirrors.
