Evaluation is never my forte. But I believe that
JR has an inside chance that he will become
next season's driver. Look in its very 1st time
out on the car. A 5th in practice 2 and 3rd in
practice 3.

I say a decent 7.5 He was able to match the pace of those at the front (that is why it took Ireland so long to overtake him).

a solid 7.5

He was able to match the pace of those upfront... Too bad he wasn't racing with them.

He did really well in the sprint race but made a mistake going into turn one in the feature but the rest of the race he kept the pace up. So about the same 7.5

Dale ran that race? just kidding
