some exciting racing this year and it ’ s definitely going to be a battle , but I ’ m super happy with second and I ’ m already looking forward to Romaniacs .”
Aptly known as the Silent Assassin , Graham Jarvis was in his element in the Minestrone . His best qualifying time on Saturday would put him ninth off the starting line , which may not have been an ideal beginning . He would work his way through the competition , ultimately overtaking Jonny Walker to cross the finish 13 minutes 38 seconds behind Lettenbichler for a third-place finish .
“ I ’ m really happy to get on the podium with third , but I made it hard for myself in qualifying ,” reflected Jarvis . “ Starting ninth wasn ’ t ideal and it was hard to get through the traffic early on . Also , I wasn ’ t too settled on lap one . We decided not to refuel starting lap two and it paid off for sure . I found my flow , grabbed a few more positions and really made that final lap count .
