What a PASS !

Aww man that's unlucky !

Eudemon · April 13, 2008

Wow Turkington is putting up one hell of a brave fight even though he's RWD and the fight for first has again heated up.

This is what racing is all about !

Baldy · April 13, 2008

Matt did well there and turkington not so well, and FIA GT championship next sunday, could be good.

Eudemon · April 13, 2008

Great driving by matt on the last two laps and how did nobody crash into the first corner? they could barely see a thing

S71NG3R · April 13, 2008

Another great Sunday afternoon racing how did they all drive so well in the last race?

GT's next week. :excited:

DriftNismo · April 13, 2008

Ok, i have to actually put on ITV4 this time for the FIA GTs. Btw, what channel does FIA European Drag Racing come on? I've only seen it once or twice at about three in the morning on channel five (i think).

Guys remember BTCC at Donington, 12:30PM today, rounds 7, 8 and 9.

Baldy · May 4, 2008

superb, thanks for the reminder.

iBilo · May 4, 2008

Thanks for the reminder, got Dad running to the lounge!!

Eudemon · May 4, 2008

WOW !! That SEAT move has got to be a contender for move of the season. Fantastic driving by all 3 drivers there !

Ohh Turner's car has a problem, man that's unlucky.

Damn what a hit that was, I LOVE TOURING CAR RACING !!

:excited:

Eudemon · May 4, 2008

Haha it's certainly been a great run of races thus far, looking forward to the Carrera Cup, with a slightly greasy track it should make for a good race.

CarMadMike · May 4, 2008

The carrera cup was brilliant, good drive from quaife, was very close

Eudemon · May 4, 2008

Last round of the BTCC at Donington is coming up very shortly, should be a good race.

Baldy · May 4, 2008

There's going to be a few strong words in the VX-R camp this afternoon.

kalniel · May 4, 2008

By some alignment of the planets I could get ITV4 today!

Porsche cup was very good to watch.

Who are the commentators? They're even worse than the ones that do the GPs - they didn't even notice Sheddon missing the chicane from the lead of the race until over a lap later.

Eudemon · May 4, 2008

Got to admit Tom Onslow-Cole's save was impressive and the race itself was quality, Shedden going straight on was funny to watch and Turner did well to keep ahead in those conditions.

If they were the same people as the program presentors then they need sorting out, They were aweful!

Tim Harvey is an ex-BTCC driver and the usual commentator, I really enjoyed as he always adds humour to the viewing like when he was commentating on the guy with 3 wheels and said "and some minor mechanical damage". lol

To be fair to them the cameras didn't show Shedden going straight on and the commentary box is blind to that area of the track plus one of them did notice Shedden was missing on the start finish straight a couple of seconds afterwards and then about a lap later they showed the camera that caught Snedden going straight on.

Good race day though and shows why Touring Cars and all other standard form of car racing is miles better than F1 anyday !!

[e:] Oh yeah special mention to the grid cameraman who was following that woman who was doing the interviewing, he got some very niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice shots of the grid girls! :D

S71NG3R · May 4, 2008

Another great days racing and top quality driving on the very low grip track.

Ah, Tim Harvey was the frustrated Driver In the Strange Painted Porsche in the carerra cup, So thats why the Commentators were going on about him alot more than the others

The cameras showed it just fine - I was watching live and they see the same thing we do - you could see him completely miss the apex of the chicane and there was no way he was going to make the corner. It wasn't a couple of seconds later than they noticed, it was a whole lap later. Then another lap later they showed it on the replay. I was trying to tell them but they just couldn't hear me :p

Tim Harvey is a good commentator usually, it was just lack of observation from anyone. Shame about his performance in the Porsche cup though :p

craigie · May 17, 2008

i don't like the two BTCC commentators. Sometimes i watch without the sound

Eudemon · May 18, 2008

Remember guys Rounds 10, 11 and 12 today, the first race has been and it was Tom Onslow-cole followed by Colin Turkington then Jason PLato and now we're onto the Clio Cup race that has just started. 2 more races in the BTCC along with the Ginetta's, Carrera Cup and the Formula Renault which I don't really care about. :)

12:30PM-17:30PM
