I went into podium sprint qualifying 3rd - Andy in 1st (Evo IX) was uncatchable time-wise, but I was only 0.3s back from Aaron in 2nd (FK8), so I did what I could! Conditions were quite a bit worse so no one improved on earlier times, but only finishing position matters based on the best of 3 laps - I ended up closing the gap down to 0.2s, but ultimately remained in 3rd. Still, it was my first podium!
