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

Bov has been on it for years, not tuned in yet but usually he wears a silly racing suit just to do interviews
I hate Eurosport, pay channel with ads every 10 minutes and they’re the same fucking ads all the time.

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.

Alex Brundle and Mark Webber commentating at the moment.

BMW would probably have better luck running that in the HyperCar category
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
Just heard that the hypercars are homologated. Are there road legal versions of these?!
