Good end to the race, was getting a bit processional before the SC though.

Getting a bit fed of of Brands Indy though, it's just so Formulaic....
Defend down the inside of paddock,run wide on the run to druids, pull to the inside quickly to prevent the guy getting through, maybe let him get alongside on the exit because it doesn't matter, you'll have the line for Graham Hill bend....watch out for a divebomb at clearways arrrghhh

Far too easy to defend here. :yuk:

BTCC or more acurately Palmer had better not go back on their promise to run the second round on the GP course ;)

Haven't been able to catch any of the racing today cos I've been busy. Were the BTCC races good?

Anyway, at least I should be able to see a bit of the racing now.


BTCC has been good as ever, download/watch the highlights, they're worth it :)

ITV4 just did a "Races so far" round up which is a nice touch, perhaps acknowledging not everyone is as sad as me and is going to watch 6 hours of motorsport! :p

The Ginettas have three races per weekend eh?
That's going to be interesting fitting that into the schedules...

I'm REALLY looking forward to see how they go at Thruxton...

I'm interested to know the philosiphy behind why they felt the need to add a rear wing though....

Needed rear downforce I guess. Don't think it detracts from the racing.

They're showing the first FRenault race of the day while waiting for BTCC. There was three-wide for the lead through Druids. :o

Pretty much spot on - sporty fast cars but with some proper racing.

They had some mammoth crashes last year to do with the skittishness of the cars.

Lol you'd think the official youtube of the Knockhill race circuit would know how to spell crash considering how many times they'll have to upload them :P

Usually downforce is the enemy of good racing but based on their races today I'd say it was a good idea...

As I say, I'll look forward to seeing them at Thruxton, that'll be a proper test for them I believe.
