They should do a sprint race at every race weekend and it should determine the order for the main race, its to long as it is now but tweaked and shortened it could be entertaining.

Two race weekend, they'd have to up the engine limit. What'd happen if some teams decided they didn't want to risk losing their car for the Sunday race, the main event.

Hmmmm, I'd like to see them try a reverse grid a la BTCC - with pole drawn out of a hat for the top 15, say. In any case, in stock cars, the better you are, the further back you start. World champion starts right at the back.

Isn't world champion in the BTCC a bit of a contradiction?

Last minute decision last night, and we decided to phone a local Malaysian restaurant for a table this evening. Phoned, but got no answer, but they called me back. Booked in for 6:15 this evening. Its a small family business thats been going years. Very reasonable prices and fabulous food. Can't wait.

It was delicious. 2 x 660ml beers, 4 starters, 2 mains and prawn crackers, £43:50. Bargain. Gave them £50. Too cheap. Always been a bargain here.

BTCC and stock cars are something quite different. Although sometimes, looking at the driving standards, it has me wondering...

Although there actually is a WTCC, but it's for a slightly different class of car than what runs in the BTCC.

Valtteri Bottas has a teacup painted on his helmet.

Or maybe it's a coffee cup, given he's a Finn...

Apart from Lewis who finished 5th, it was boring as hell.

Was it as exciting as watching a garden snail do a flying lap of Silverstone GP circuit ?

 

[Illaveago]

I dunno... There were a few good bits and bobs. The thing is, you *can* overtake around Interlagos.

I reckon someone replaced Lewis with Ash Sutton - that was BTCC reverse grid race levels of genius.

My wife has been wondering if he has been suffering from the after effects of the virus . I know that a couple of early races he looked absolutely shattered at the end .

There's six next year.
They may form their own series though, and have no impact on qualifying for the main race on Sunday.

That's 6 I won't be watching then !

Morning.
Grey but dry here.
Georgie has been fed and has been dashing around. I hope he hasn't gone out looking for mice !

 

[Illaveago]

I think the GP should have a start like they used to for Le Man's where they used to run across to their cars, but have to go through a turnstile first !

Sounds like it could be fun.
