Just a heads up that the race starts at 3pm and is looking like it's going to be a belter with around 6 teams with pretty much equal cars.

Rang some of the wanky petrolhead-y pubs round here to see if they were showing it. No, course not :roll: :D

Bov has been on it for years, not tuned in yet but usually he wears a silly racing suit just to do interviews :lol:

I hate Eurosport, pay channel with ads every 10 minutes and they’re the same fucking ads all the time.
How about not having a sig at all?

The pain can at least be dulled by listening to RLM instead of their commentary...

Shame about the rebuilt Jota car :?

To be fair they’ve just had the first ad break after 40 minutes.

BMW would probably have better luck running that in the HyperCar category :lol:

Also I always thought wheel spin in the pits was not allowed but it seems to be done by everyone this year?

Hilarious, no inters to save the planet.
Probably offset by a single car being smashed into the wall…

That was a great race 8-)

Just heard that the hypercars are homologated. Are there road legal versions of these?!
