Some random guy from China will be again happy to win Macau and be able to say that he's in the same group as Schumacher, Senna and others

You may be right. Covid will never disappear from the Earth, so if China will never abolish their zero-Covid policy, a street race at Chinese territory on Mars is more likely than Macau GP returning.

Macau will propably stay, but it will propably look like some of the street races in Thailand with random series and names. Even barriers are in the same color there

Portuguese GT almost made a remake of the WTCC pileup at Vila Real a few year ago :lol:



Less cars involved but big one too.

I don't understand the team orders that Cyan Racing pulled in race 1. It didn't benefit them in either the drivers' or teams' championships.

Great to see Huff win race 2. He cut it fine leaving the joker late like that.

The Lynk & Co card withdrew from the race in protest with the ballast rules. So it's an 11 car race.

Girolami wins. 5 punctures in 11 cars in 30 minutes is peak WTCR.

And race direction forgot to throw the checkered flag, so everybody was still racing until the final corner, brilliant.

Ton of tyres problem at Vallelunga. Goodyear tyres has been shit all year for WTCR/ETCR it seems.

They already cancelled Norscheilfe. Cyan Racing Lynk didn't want to make the races today because of safety concern

And in ETCR, Bruno Spengler had a massive shunt a few minute ago after a puncture on the fastest part of the track. :8: Alfa Romeo has withdrawn their cars from the event after this shunt too.

Tony Stewart was right. Goodyear can't build a tyre that's worth a crap.

wow. The Lynk & Co Cyan Racing team has announced an immediate suspension of its programme in the FIA World Touring Car Cup due to ongoing concerns about the safety of the Goodyear tyres being used in the series.

https://www.touringcartimes.com/2022/08 ... programme/

What a joke of a series. Congrats Goodyear for what you have done.

This weekend it was a French round at Anneau du Rhin. Yann Ehrlacher & Yvan Muller who were born near this racetrack won't drive on their home track and Anneau du Rhin did a with massive promotion for the event for them too. :lol:
