This should be quite interesting; I can see Matt Neal taking the first two wins so long as MacDowell is nowhere near.

I'd look out for Jordan, too. I wouldn't be surprised to see him win one.

The NA cars will struggle I think.

Doesn't look like Aon are getting the third car out this weekend.

I hope neither happens. Without much weight I can see Andrew Jordan getting pole or another front row, Tom Chilton will be a challenger also. Plato will struggle in race one as he'll be weighed down, expect to see him do well in race 3.

Tony Gilham might make it

Triple Eight have been absolutely brilliant since the 1st day I sat down with them to discuss the BTCC opportunity. They are an amazing team and I speak to them everyday. It is unfortunate that a big new sponsor has dropped this bombshell but my existing sponsors have also been very good to me and we are trying everything we can to continue where we left off at Brands Hatch last weekend.

I guess I'll Sky Plus the BTCC. Watch F1. Squeeze in the BTCC afterwards, skip all the breaks between races. Then watch Dega with an Indy stream. Or Sky Plus Indy and watch in the morning. Cock. Too much. :p

What time is the GP on live?

I could easily go from 8am to 11am F1 and forum, etc, then BTCC until 6pm, then straight to NASCAR/IRL...

Plus there's F2 to fit in there somewhere as well!

If I was at my mum's house her Sky plus box would be smoking after all that action! :lol:

Too much cock?

I'll be watching Dega live, BTCC once they are up on RU and F1, well haven't decided on that one yet after the debacle that is Speed's programme.

F1 is 7am - 10.15. The forum is usually an hour so I guess that runs up to 11.15. BTCC race 1 is 11.35. Perfect...

Oh of course, the F1 is on earlier. I just instantly think of F1 starting at 1pm. :p

I've just found out there's also Superleague Formula AND World Series by Renault on this weekend as well

WHAT IS HAPPENING..... :8:

This is all going to backfire when we're gonna have flip all to watch on Easter Sunday :(

No SF this weekend. Only Blancpain Endurance Series & British F3 will race at Monza. Don't know why they removed Monza from the calendar...

Blancpain will be fully streamed live on their site (and slightly delayed on Motors), great looking grid there

Oh my gawd. BTCC, F1, Indycar, ALMS, Blancpain and two NASCAR races from Talladega. I'm never going to manage.

Post subject:  Re: BTCC @ Donington Park 16th/17th April

my plan for Sunday:

wake up
F1 via TV in the morning
BTCC through stream + Blancpain through stream at noon-afternoon
WSbR + F2 via whatever TV-channel is airing at the time
NASCAR via stream + Indycar via stream in the evening
bitch at how boring and shitty everything was
sleep
