If it's like this track another street track is fine by me.

Slovakia isn't a loss racing wise.

Great looking track. I think this and Nordschleife compensate for the lack of Macao.

Vila Real is a beast of a track, it seems to be lacking in overtaking spots though

They raced there in the past and it's still a 70's/80's looking track which is awesome.

Aside from the silly chicanes(that will be changed for next year, according to Autosport), this is one awesome track. Super hairy, and super fast.

Yeah if 2 citreon starring dowm the order can't charge through the field then you know it was dull.

Track looks great with some high speed sections but as for overtaking...not so much

The second race is like 5pm but they still only have that retarded 10 minute window, it's no wonder they don't try hard in the first race.

I'm assuming there's a long Portuguese gt race happening now because the scheduling is odd

When I first looked at the tv guide i assumed ELMS was racing with them as it's race length fits perfectly between the two races.
But it isn't so i dunno why they wouldn't have them closer together

Well there's a historic race on the schedule at least. Maybe wanting WTCC to be the last race of the day?

Eurosport broadcast tour de france in the afternoon so they probably wanted 2nd race live, so the only way was at 6 p.m ?
