It's already time for the second round of the season. The big thing to look out for this weekend will be how much the increased ballast affects the cars in qualifying, never before have the cars been so heavy on their hot laps. We could be in for an unpredictable event.

No Porsches this weekend, so the support package won't be as busy. On the plus-side, we might actually get to see something from MSA Formula other than highlights of a race that we already know the result of! Oh, and we have a triple-header of Clios .

The big thing really is will there be any Clio's left after race 2 to have a third race?

Jack Goff clobbered the back of Hunter Abbott's car. Abbott will miss FP2 and possibly qualifying as well.

Quali coverage has started.

Wish they'd show the supports as well.

Plenty of people having issues and spinning, now Priaulx's conked out and he's only 23rd at the moment.

Andy Priaulx's stopped and he's only 23rd on the grid atm. Looks like that's where he'll stay.

Aron Smith is out of quali with an issue.

Jordan off for a second time in the same place

Turk on pole

A good qualifying session there. You don't need any of that knockout rubbish for it to be entertaining.

An impressive showing from the two Chevrolets in the top 10.

Just had a rather good Clio race with Sutton & Whorton-Eales exchanging the lead multiple times and the top 4 covered by 0.6 secs at the finish.
