Some of the worst coverage of racing I've ever seen. The Director has missed almost every incident, replays are non-existant, he changes camera angles constantly after a few seconds - it's enough to induce epilepsy. The cameras constantly follow cars line-astern when there's passing going on behind - it's awful.

Hope Coronel can hold on. I imagine Farfus will take him out though. :/

Yup, good race.

The Director should be shot though.

Two great races today, shame about the usual poor coverage - I was almost shouting at the TV at times to get back to the battles on the track! Loved the onboard from Tarquini's car at the back of the pack in the 2nd race, makes you wonder how much happens back in the pack that never makes it on TV (tho the BTCC often misses backmarker action too).

Any news on if Muller got a penalty for tapping Thompson off on race 1? The only angle shown wasn't really good enough to assigne blame, but it'd definately make the championship a bit tighter..

Best WTCC races in a long time, despite the poor coverage (the japanese really don't know how to make a proper motorsport TV production it seems).

That's not really surprising with the crippling weight penalties they hand out over the season.

I'd say the reverse grid is probably a bigger factor. Especially when Seats at max weight can still qualify on pole...
