James' first race meeting was a relative success. After not impressing on the time sheets in practice or qualifying he wound up 19th on the grid for the feature race. After picking through accidents happening in front of him and a clean race, James would finish the race in a solid 8th place. He held 6th place for a while in the reverse-grid sprint race, before finally ending in 8th once again.
