I have only just realised, from the overhead photo, how much Thruxton is Old Silverstone with the corners smoothed...

Stream has been laggy all qualy, I wish they'd just youtube it like every other series.
Watched a LOT of racing today and this is the first I've had problems with

Meanwhile it seems the BTCC hired the Monza Blancpain cameraman.
Didn't look like a big crash but it would've been nice if he panned to see the impact

Been fine for me. The IMSA stream on the other hand has had plenty of issues.

It's probably a flash vs HTML5 thing, but Flash is a dead medium anyway, but there's no point trying to hog it on their website and not get extra viewership by putting it on youtube like all the successful social media series are doing.

Oh my god, I didn't even dare stream anything back in those days

I still don't know how it was possible to have 1 tv broadcast, 1 track cam, and 3 on-boards in 2004/2005 internet speeds when I got Champcar's race director feed.
Then again, I probably never tried to stream them on anything bigger than a 2004 laptop screen so I didn't notice if they were potato quality :p

Sutton really showing up Plato this year

He's already "one to watch" for me, but if his performances push Plato into the inevitable retirement that's been coming for years now, he'll tip the balance into being one of my favourite EVER drivesr :mrgreen:

This was late '90's. 42k dialup could never get the full 56k :lol:

If I give a knighthood for anyone taking Plato out, what'd I have to give Sutton for making him retire? :lol:
