Huff will probably get a penalty for punting Muller off

Well Monza is always good fun but I'm not sure if I can be bothered with another year of Chevy domination, particularly as it seems Muller is going to go all Loeb on this championship...

Come back soon BTCC!

Trouble is Chevy don't have anyone to actually rival them.

Tarq wasn't at fault but did Muller brake early?

The picture shows a different action. I have posted Chilton's figure happened in the warm up in the video thread. :wave:

Two fairly decent races today. Shame about the end results. If Huff is to beat up on Muller in an attempt to win this year's title, he'll need to learn a few lessons from Tarquini first.

Hang on a moment, people are unhappy? Really? Just a few years ago the world was (understandably) bitching about Seat dominating the series thanks to their treatment from the FIA. Chevy have:

- worked hard since 2005 to get to a winning position
- not received any of the same FIA bias treatment to get into a dominant position
- at least won a title before the other manufacturers quit, and won it fairly
- let their drivers race instead of forming an orderly queue in an attempt to benefit one driver and one driver only (looks toward Seat)

You just hate tuning in knowing that Chevy can come from 8, 9, 10 on the grid and sweep the podium. Seat didn't dominate that bad. We were so lucky to have all those works teams for that many seasons. I'll always remember 2006 when the top 9 went into Macau with a shot at the title. This year 9th will be 300 points out of the lead.

That's more of that WTCC isn't as strong as it used to be. Blame the economy, and so on. How many manufacturers were racing back then? Chevy, Seat, BMW, Honda, Alfa...?
