Meh, fuck the six week wait.

That was a pretty action packed day of racing and it's always nice to see a new winner. I think we'll see at least three more winners this season and probably more if some of the drivers have luck on their side.

I wonder for how much longer Gow is going to tolerate Mark Howard? He's almost always last, spends more time off the track than on and contributes nothing to the series other than an increased likelihood of a safety car period.

The F4 organisers must be getting rather annoyed with ITV. Only 2 of the last 6 races have been shown.

That's what I hate about ITV's coverage. They start and finish with BTCC and any support race before the first BTCC race is lucky if it gets shoehorned into the lunch break.

Gow loves his safety cars though, he probably gives him a bonus just for bringing it out

the races had a bit more contact than normal but awesome racing overall, good to see Sutton get that win :flag:

I would like to see them follow a similar format that V8sc has with their support series. Start the coverage a day before with practice and quali sessions, as well as the first race of each support category. then the second day with the second round of each support and the last two main races. that would own

Yeaa, that'd be bloody nice.

That would be good but ITV only care about adverts & sob stories, not providing a quality broadcast.

That is on the Aussie equivalent of Sky Sports though, so you'd be paying a pretty penny for that.... :whistling:
