No way? The one guy who claims BTCC is the BEST racing series in the world is upset about something? Just no way! I'm the only guy here who talks negative about BTCC? What happened?

It must be odd being partisan for or against a team so much that a great finish like that leaves people cold...

Either way you look at it, it was high drama and fantastic entertainment.

Yes, there is a dominant team atm, but that's literally why we have these reversed grid and success ballast racing in the first place

This isn't formula 1, if you're a purist, it's not for you. The series will literally throw everything they can at the series to ensure it is entertaining because that way leads to big crowds and high viewing figures on tv, so greater advertising revenue that filters down to the teams and the cycle continues on...

We've had dominant teams before so WSR's performance is nothing new. Hell, we have this format because of the Vauxhall's dominance (with little other competition) nearly 20 years ago.
It's nothing new and rarely lasts more than a couple of seasons, so just be patient and it'll all swap around again

BTCC might be many things, but boring is never one of them

Name me a motorsport series that doesn't involve luck....

I'll wait....

I agree with you, mate. I'm just being pissy because I wanted a different champion this time and it feels like WSR have reversed into it despite having everything in their favour

I don't have any beef with Colin specifically - he's a nice guy, he generally races clean and he's one of the best we've seen in the BTCC in terms of natural talent and racing intelligence. His reaction was amazing today. I don't even care it's WSR specifically either - a few years ago it was Dynamics winning every year and I felt similar. But I dunno, with the way decisions have gone over the last two years and ITV's triumphalism, it just sticks in my throat a bit. The title feels bought, like when Jimmie Johnson used to win the Cup every year because he nailed the Chase every time, or when Schumacher won in 2003 because the FIA forced Michelin's hand and everything fell for him in the last two races. It's just very meh to me. Sensational drama, but for all of it, we got the outcome everyone expected anyway

:roll:

I've always treasured individual race drama over the narrative of a season, which is why I don't have much truck with people calling F1 seasons like 2005/6 great seasons when yes, the championship was close and yes, it was nice to see a new winner that wasn't micheal, but the majority of the actual races were downforce laden dirty air parades unless it rained or a random SC showed up), and the BTCC gives us race drama in spades time after time

Hurry back soon, BTCC. You truly are the best of all the motorsports.

I don't agree with a lot of what you say but I'm on board with this 100%.

As for Vassago I recommend everyone get reacquainted with the "Add Foe" button like I just have. I've got better things to do than read troll posts in the one forum that's relatively free of trolls.
