It equals the record. We need 30 cars to break the record.

I can see Swanwick rolling at Paddock.


I can see him having an anonymous race at the rear of the field, maybe losing one of them to technical issues, then declaring it a great event to raise his experience levels.

Or, yeah, what you said :p

Brands GP, the track that's traditionally hard to pass on.....

Until the BTCC comes to race, obviously :p

BTCC would have passing galore at Monaco. :p
Even some of the duller races should have their moments. I can see a lot of the amateur drivers in the Porkers getting it wrong around the GP loop. There's not much margain for error out there. Quite a few offs in Formula Renault today, apparently.

A couple of guest drivers in the supports, too. Nick Tandy in Porsches and Patrick Watts in Ginettas.

I've been re-watching the 1993 season races recently where Patrick is driving that lovely purple and yellow Mazda Xedos. It will be great to see him back.

:lol:

Another thing to mention; the last time anywhere near this many cars started at Brands GP, half the field retired. And now we've got Swanwick 8O .

Swanwick should have all his sponsorship upside down so when he does roll and lands on his roof it reads the right way, like they did with Plato.

I fear that Swanwick is starting too early. Like MacDowell, he hasn't had enough tin top experience to be the best.

Seeing 29 names. Awesome

Boardman looking pretty good.

Swanwick at the back. Here's hoping he doesn't finish off the underfunded cars of James and Wood.
