I don't want to choose, especially as I sat through last weekend with hardly anything on but nascar.
Could've synched up so much better if they'd thought about it

*edit* just checked the schedule and EVERY remaining round now clashes with f1. That means only Snetterton this year was racing when f1 wasn't.

There's only so much racing you can fit into one day.
However once a week you can balance your schedule to fit it all in

Great job msa

If the forecast is correct. Expect very heavy rain for qualifying and sun tomorrow.

Jeff Smith (!) is currently fastest in practice 2, 3 tenths faster than second, and 2 tenths faster than Shedden's time in practice 1. He's gone off somewhere in sector 2 though.

excellent news

Which means he'll start from the pits after half a lap and try for a better race 2 grid slot.

At the track currently and its wet but sunny

Porsches on track. Still greasy

Already cars off on the warming up lap. Could be interesting

John McColloch in the gravel at clarks on the warming up lap

Hunter Abbott got the call at 6am his wife had gone into labour. Not sure he will be racing today or not
