Jobe Stewart “On the bubble” presented by Turn in Race Apparel

As we turn the corner and begin the journey towards the chequered flag of the 2023 Motorsport Australia Logitech G Pro Invitational Cup, we take the time to sit down & speak with the driver who is sitting on the “on the bubble” in 20th place.
This week, Jobe Stewart of Pursuit Sim Racing takes us through his 2023 campaign, answering all the difficult questions as he prepares to tackle the remaining rounds of the 2023 Motorsport Australia Logitech G Pro Invitational Cup.
R: Jobe, you are the driver featuring on the bubble after Watkins Glen, what are your thoughts on your 2023 campaign to date?
JS: The Logitech series in 2023 for me so far has been a bit of a roller coaster. I’ve had some really positive rounds but also some not so good races aswell.
R: You’ve fought back well since the opening round of the season at Sebring where you unfortunately found yourself with a DNF. What do you think has been your most complete round so far in the 2023 Motorsport Australia Logitech G Pro Invitational Cup and why?
JS: The DNF was a terrible way to start the season, I had a good qualifying at Sebring and to get put in the wall on first lap was disappointing. However i bounced back from that at Spa which was my best round with a good qualifying and my best result of 6th.
R: Moving forward, what do you think is going to be the key to continuing a consistent run of form throughout the remaining rounds of the championship?
JS: I think the key is trying to get as many practice laps in the week before. Some of the rounds i haven’t had much practice at all and it has really hurt me, especially in qualifying. Getting up to speed in the days before the event is crucial.
R: Working with a high class team such as Pursuit Sim Racing is a great position to be in, what is it like working with the likes of Andrew Gilliam & how does that help you improve your own craft in the Sim?
JS: Working with the guys at PSR is fantastic. I’ve been with the team for about 5 years now and it’s a great environment to be in. Andrew is awesome at what he does and his knowledge on the setup side of things is great. Mike T is also a big help and is always thinking about the best strategy throughout the race.
R: Lastly, what are you thoughts on the next round of the championship at Red Bull Ring? Do you think your in with a chance to win?
JS: Red Bull ring isn’t necessarily a track that i have really enjoyed in the past. It’s obviously a really cool track but in a Supercar it’s really difficult with the fast corners and the low grip. I’ll try and practice as much as I can and see how close i can get to the front. A win may be a bit of a reach at the moment but if i can break into that top 5, top 3, and battle with the front guys, i might be with a chance of winning.
