Right? When I’m in a 30-minute race trying not to invalidate a single lap it just feels like this is the only thing going on in the world right now and it’s unlike how I am in real life. When I’m cooking food, my head is just everywhere – is the pan hot, is this ingredient ready, should I clean this while that’s cooking – but in a car on a track (virtually at least), my head has a single linear flow and my body follows.
I struggle in the middle/end of stints too, and typically when this happens I “reset” by silently muttering my next braking points, especially during a long straight. Hope that helps you to some extent and thanks for commenting despite being a lurker. Helps with not feeling alone
